Benching is the most important skill in MMA. The era of bench pressers is upon us!
Are I?Are you being sarcastic...
That goes to show that just because your good with an inflated ball doesn't necessarily mean you can fight!Jones is a pure example, by his own admission he couldn't keep up with either of his brothers and wasn't much of a football player.
In Case you guys didn't know this video is fake.
Agreed completely.Can someone please explain me this obsession with athleticism and the "not care" attitude towards things that can render it useless? Such as, for how long someone can maintain said athleticism before gassing, especially after being elbowed a few times in the head?
I've never seen any other sport fans showing so little respect towards its top practitioners like MMA "fans" do. If anything, an MMA observer should've been given enough examples of athletic guys quitting/being finished when the unathletic ones they faced had more heart. About same level of intellectual finesse involved.
Some of the fine gents around remind me of those partaking in select forums of the early 2000s, discussing "mixed animal fights" - i.e. who would win between a great white and a hippo.
Disgusting.
If any of this were true or even mattered at ALL when it comes to fighting, then Matt Mitrione would be undefeated HW GOAT. Greg Hardy would be the best prospect in all of MMA right now.
How I feel when I see "A level athlete"
Agreed completely.
There's a huge difference between throwing a ball, vs fighting a trained killer until one's will is broken.
Romero is an A-level athlete, with the skills in wrestling to back it up, it didn't win him the fight against Whitaker because of superior skill.
