Wanderlei Silva sparring Fabrico Werdum (pretty hardcore)

You are supposed to train footwork and distance management, not how to defend strikes with big gloves/your face. That's why superior boxers would dominate MMA so easily, these guys are lacking fundamentals. I can't even imagine how effortless Lomachenko would run thru the 125 lbs division. Unfortunately MMA fans will gladly buy Dana's wolf tickets, believing they are watching once in a lifetime talents like Ray Borg lmao

Everyone shits on Borg. It' unanimous it's MM weakest title defense.

MM would destroy Lomenchenko in MMA.

Old but gold

Werdum stand up has been very impressive
The Nelson fight is when we saw it

Lmao trrrrrAaaaaassshhh


This is why other combat sports practitioners turn their nose up at MMA

Thank god the striking is starting to improve
 
Great video. Axe man aint taking it easy on no one -- wow! Not saying it's the best way to spar but this type of experience shows in Werdum's confidence in the ring.
 
I think Werdum is finally at the point where age is catching up to him. It would have been awesome to his true skills under Cordiero but in a younger, leaner version.
