The Weasle...

[Schoolboy Q]

I had to stop YouTube from recommending his shit content.

 

[Kumason]

Who the f are we talking about?

 

[Iroh]

is absolutely terrible. Can someone explain how he amassed a following 3x that of Slacky J and 8x of Heavy Hands?
This "let's talk" segment autoplayed on Youtube this morning. Around the 16:25 mark, in the context of discussing the relevance of weight classes, he capped Mighty Mouses's chances of beating Ngannou at 10-20% because he is "wuuaaaaaaaaay more technical."
i've never heard a dumber take in my life. who listens to this guy? can you explain the appeal?

Bruh, please create your own MMA analytical vids.. lets see what your takes are.

 

[Miguel de Sade]

Why bother with the hate?

No, but if I did I would not give a 125er a 10-20% chance of beating the HW champ so if I did create content it’d automatically be better.

 

[Iroh]

And it's not just because Mighty Mouse is more technical, but also much faster. His theory is that Mighty Mouse just runs around the cage and evades everthing Ngannou throws till he gasses. And he just point fights. It's just a hypothetical. Chill

Sure, but I bet you have some other takes, I, or someone else, would find not very smart...

 

[Goldentrophy]

His match analysis and breakdowns are exceptional but his hyperbole hypotheticals like the example you provided are definitely stupid.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

He's probably an intelligent guy with little bias and reasonable takes on things..

Sherdog usually hates that..

MM ever beating Ngannou in a fight is not a reasonable take

that's still nonsense. he's going to evade EVERYTHING? in a cage? lol, the only way he's evading everything is by jumping in his car and leaving the arena.

Take it up with him, bud. It's not my take. I was just clarifying because TS didn't do a good job representing what he said.

 

[fortheo]

I don't agree with him on many things, but he's clearly a big fan and he clearly trains at least a little-- he knows more than the average man fan. There's worse sources of MMA knowledge for casuals out there.

Mostly, It's just nice to see MMA fans able to make some kind of profit off of YouTube just by talking about the sport that they're passionate about. I respect the hustle, and it's not like he's hurting anyone.

 

[Iroh]

However, don't forget MM is a tiny target compared to what Ngannou is used to hitting.

 

[Cpt Migraine]

No, it's not..

But if you speculate on youtube for a living you're bound to say some stupid shit..

It's like with rogan.. people with single digit iq's find the "once ever" quote and bite down on it like a pitbull..

If the roles were reversed and you'd put the one with the critique in thousands of hours of public conversation they would probably seem way stupider than rogan.. or the weasle..

 

[Nada.]

seem way stupider than rogan

That's easier said than done.

 

[Cpt Migraine]

That's easier said than done.

But how tall is he?

My point is it's a lot easier to be some anonymious asshole on the internet than a creator of content.. most people shit themselves when faced with the prospect of having to hold a presentation..

 

[chardog]

if you think you're better than him, go do it. Seriously, as a youtuber, weasle videos are relatively low effort, but the guy still does a lot and works his butt off. Make your own channel to dispute him, because in a week from now, this thread will be buried pages deep while weasle gets million of views.

 

[FORXREAL]

I love his content. But if I'm being fair I due have a couple points of contention with him. His whole who threw or landed the harder strikes to score a fight can be silly.

Are you suggesting that MM couldn't beat Francis 1 or 2 out of 10 times?

Admittedly, 2 is a bit of a stretch, but I'd get on board for the 1 out of 10.

Guy isn't that far off, imo.

Of course. I totally agree with that.

 

[Luckyme]

I always look forward to Weasle's technical breakdowns. His post fight analyses are one of if not the best out there. Makes Uncle Chael look like a casual.

Don't necessarily agree with this take but if you listen closely, he isn't saying MM would be favored to beat Ngannou but that MM could beat him maybe 2 out of 10 times IF such and such happens.
