Just re-watched Tony/RDA. Tony is an absolute terminator, the guy is nothing but pure aggression even after getting tagged over and over by huge power. He is like a Diaz bro with better Muay Thai, wrestling, and scrambling.
His strikes are some of the most varied in the sport. Straight right, jab, front kick to body, inside and outside leg kicks, calf kicks, standing elbows, that rising elbow uppercut a la Silva/Fryklund, spinning shit, shit off the cage. His grappling is just as exciting. Great pace, fast scrambles, unorthodox 10th Planet style off his back, a variety of finishes off the front headlock position, diving rolling leg locks.
And all this is made so much sweeter by the pace he keeps. He just doesn't slow down ever and by the end of the fight RDA is moving like zombie Nog and wearing a JDS-style gore-clown mask. You can keep your big power heavyweights like Ngannou who get gassed after 5 minutes and spend 20 struggling to breath. I would rather watch 25 minutes of Tony in the cage than anyone else out there currently.
Watch and enjoy all this and more in one 25 minute bloodbath.
