What happen to Johny Hendricks punching power ?

[Blayt7hh]

I'm sure it's mostly still there. It's his ability to land it that has gotten worse

 

[KantoTerror]

HE was like Sampson the power was in his hair, or in this case the beard. He got rid of that, and so he was rid of his awesome power too.

Too many Sampson out there..you talkin 'bout Ralph?

You saved me from making this dubs-bait post.

Thank you.

Glad to see your name is still white and not yellow. Thought for sure they'd give you dubs for that post, especially after it was deleted.

Hendricks always had good power, but it was always a bit overrated. This idea that he "essentially knocking people out cold" has always been overstated. In his 17 UFC fights, he has exactly 5 (T)KOs. When you're working your way up the ranks, it's easier to get KOs over guys like Sadollah and T.J. Wadburger. But when you reach the top, it's infinitely harder to get KOs when you're fighting elite guys every time out. His last 6 opponents have been Condit, GSP, Robbie 2x, Matt Brown, Wonderboy, and Gastelum. Those guys aren't exactly know for getting KO'd.

Again, Johny has always had good power, but he's never been the biggest puncher out there. And it's harder to get KOs when you're fighting top guys.

The KOs he has were from clean shots. I think people have adjusted to his aggression. It seems that as long as his opponents don't run straight back, they don't get knocked out.

All I can remember is his afro flopping around the place as he tries to keep his feet.

His afro is always getting knocked around hahahhahahahhaa. poor Charlie Brenneman.

I think he was joocing

 

[AP_RESURRECTION]

basically, no one knows - he is prob fighting better competition overall, but maybe part of it is the loss of the surprise factor - everyone knows to watch out for that left

He's downward trajectory will top 10 all time, but it won't be his fault.

 

[linvillegorge]

70% happened. He completely changed his fighting style after gassing out badly trying to finish iron jawed Condit.

Bicep surgery. Hasn't been the same since.

People saying IV, USADA i agree defintely. It seems very obvious.

But bicep surgery, camp change not on good terms, losing his title, has had a hellacious impact also.

For the millionth time, OP: USADA, a couple decades of cutting weight, 10 rounds of Robbie Lawler punches to the face, and a string of really tough opponents, or any combination of the previous.

 

[Pure Dust]

I think the way he got most of his knockouts was his deceptive speed. Despite his build Hendricks covers distance really quickly, and often hits people before they can even react. That is what happened to Kampmann and Fitch, and when he hurt GSP in the 2nd round (but GSP showed good defensive footwork, posture, secured position with his low stance, both feet planted with the knees bent, to absorb the punch). You have to stay closer than you think against Hendricks. If you give a guy who explodes forward like that space to build up the momentum, he will run most guys over. He doesn't hit as hard when he can't step as much into his strikes, but then of course you have to deal with the wrestling and clinch game. The fighters Hendricks struggles to put away are either solid defensively (GSP), nigh-impossible to knock out (Condit, Brown), or both(Lawler)

I think the Lawler fights with how much damage he took, weight cut history, and recent changes to his training camp have contributed to his decline physically and technically.

Great fucking assessment, that is all.

He only fights at 70% and below now.

His opponents aren’t letting him hit them on the chin.


I’m not Hendricks fan, far from it actually. But I don’t think his power has really changed. He just happened to land several perfectly placed shots, in a relatively short period of time. Add to that, his last several opponents aren’t exactly easy to knock out.

His weight issues on the other hand, raise questions.

I think this is most likely the reason. It was easy to jump on the Big Rig wagon, especially with Rogan always proclaiming how powerful he is, but I think he isn't as hands of stone as people believed.
