Me too brother. Number 44 is engraved in my mind.Watching the Phenom walk Wandy's ass across that octagon in that epic KO finish is the single moment in my life that hooked me on UFC/MMA. He's a legend. My all time fav.
How amazing would the UFC be if tjey allowed trt?
Can someone with more knowledge than I please explain why guys hit those type of pads instead of just working the heavy bag?
It seems like his son is doing most of the striking with the mitts.
A pad is stationary, so you obviously just smacking a stationary target. Where as striking pads allows you hone your boxing/kicking skills on a moving target. It's more close to simulating a real scenario in the cage short of actual sparing. It's also excelled for building cardio as well.Can someone with more knowledge than I please explain why guys hit those type of pads instead of just working the heavy bag?

We would have definitely saw more fights and wins from Vitor and Hendo. Vitor off the trt was a very sad thing to see.How amazing would the UFC be if tjey allowed trt?
He was quick even off TRT, he just lost the extra power that came with it.Serious question. Do steroids help increase your speed too? He is pretty sharp for a man in his 40s.
If you don't see a correlation, look at other fighters when they were 42 like chuck liddell.

That's the coach Yod lol
I don't get why people are focusing on his speed. Real pad work is about technique. He could be late into training or focusing on sharpening his punches. Not to mention he's older now and practicing slower is much easier on his body which helps prevent injuries during training.Looks to be getting some of dat speed back compared to the last snippet he posted up
right, wrong, or indifferent, when people think of Vitor they think of the guys blisteringly fast hands...I don't get why people are focusing on his speed. Real pad work is about technique.
