UFC protected and made chama

[orca]

does chama even realize this
fighting kickboxing fights only


when he fought fighters with takedown threats he doesnt really look like a champion

2 fights with grappling
vs jan a boring fight people thought he should have lost
vs ankalaev
ank bullied him in the clinch

did chama believe in his own hype
he looked like a giant as always
have never seen anyone outweighing him
or out heighting him

You preferred the fight on Saturday to all the KOs then I take it

I’m shocked that a fighting promotion would try and set up exciting fights

 

[PulsingJones]

He got skyrocketed to a titleshot for his history with Izzy, then got stiffened in the rematch and escaped to an easier division where he got a TS from a split decision over 41 year old Jan.

Rolled my eyes every time people claimed he was one of the greats, people got lost in the hype.

12 -3

 

[sanguinius]

He lost an extremely close decision that many, if not most, fans think he deserved to win, so he obviously was a loser piece of shit that never deserved his success.

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

Maybe he was fast-tracked to a title, and maybe he had some favorable matchups, but he still had to beat Blachowicz, Strickland, Adesanya, Prochazka, and Hill in a cage, by himself, with no help from the UFC…

Not many people could have done that…

Dana handcrafted Chama

 

[GordoBarraBJJ]

And here we go with these type of threads - TS needs a kick in the head

He lost a close Dec that many thought he should have won. He stuffed all the takedown attempts and was the one who got a trip/takedown so clearly he was overrated all along.

Alex is a great kickboxer but he was exposed when his finally fought a well rounded MMA fighter in Ank instead of a tailor made sloppy brawler or a pure striker

Ank was right when he said that Alex needed to stopping running away from him, Alex was running away from him in the fight as well

Sean, Izzy, Khalil, Hill, Jiri..... They don't wrestle at all or Sean rarely does. Alex has basically fought pure strikers & sloppy brawlers during his UFC run. Wasn't getting that against Ank

I can't for the life of me understand how anyone gives that fight to Pereira.

Awful lot of threads about two guys who can't grapple for shit.

Do you actually still think this era or the previous one is/was any good?

Im only asking to see what kind of stupid answer you'll type

 

[World eater]

Exposed by what? All these stupid threads about one dimensional kickboxing, but he was never dominated on the ground or in danger of a sub. Jan held him down and Jiri did for a bit, but it went nowhere. How are they exposing him? If you said that the threat of a TD made his striking crap, than ok, but the only fights he lost were stand up fights. Also, please stop pretending it was a ragdolling, it was one of the least eventful title fights in a long while. Such a letdown.

 

[Conan the K-9]

Can’t wait for the new champ to get exposed again against old man Jan or middleweight Paul Craig. Heck even Glover can come out of retirement and sub him.

Owl will hide in the mountains and do his first defense in Abu Dhabi, when all the guys are well over 50 years old.

so is clinching not grappling?

 

[Skarsgard]

I can't for the life of me understand how anyone gives that fight to Pereira.

1, 3, 5. 1 and 5 were Alex. 2 and 4 were Ank. 3 was a toss-up depending on when you dozed off.

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Funny how people complain about the UFC never promoting anyone, but also complain when they do.

One of my biggest complaints of post-Conor UFC is that they don't promote anyone. They've done a great job of promoting Poatan.

 

[george14]

He lost a very close decision to a guy people said would take him down at will and now those same fans get to move the goal posts and say HAHA HE LOST! After...you know...they were proven wrong. MMA fans are very fickle.

8 of his last 9 fights were against UFC Champions, what are you talking about? I'm curious if that has ever been done before.
