What you think of Brady now?

He won the fight but it was a crappy performance. Maybe the eyepokes affected him idk. But he had nothing left in the tank by the middle of the third round, and imo was close to getting finished.

I think the guy should consider going to LW by sacrificing some muscle. I mean just look at him, he's too husky for his own good. He's lacking in height and reach at WW.
 
gatekeeper to the top 5 entrance
 
He’s going to be at a reach disadvantage often. The fact that it seemed to cause him tons of problems against a guy with the striking of chiesa isn’t a good look for his future. His grappling is fantastic though

He has some things to work on but he manhandled a big WW in Chiesa. Potential for sure, tough that he's now going to be top ten and matched up with the top guys. Time to sink or swim now.

Is Chiesa considered a big WW, I'd say he is average especially since he used to be a lightweight in 2017. He is tall though if thats what you are getting at.
 
A few more seconds and he would have been tko'd by MC so he was quite...

Nah he's actually legit big. Yes he made LW in the past, but he was so weak/soft/chinny in that division likely because of the huge cut.

Good win but I wasn't all that impressed. Didn't really have anything in the stand up and gassed after 2 rounds. A little ironic he said he wants 5 rounds but couldn't go 3.

Brady is very good. I'm not sure what happened to his cardio, because if that's the norm, that's a bit worriesome because he will eventually start main eventing.

Chiesa looked very good on the feet. I knew Chiesa can throw down when he wants to. I thought Brady would outgrapple Chiesa, but bit surprising Chiesa didn't attempt a takedown until very late.

He hit that stupid trip that he always hit on people and he looked dominant on top.

Brady must be really strong in the clinch. I figured it was going to be decided in the clinch, and it was Brady.
 
Striking is going to let him down against the elite of the division who can also grapple like Usman, Colby, Khamzat and Burns.
 
chiesa should bring the excitment beyond the intro. If he would pushed like in the last from the start, he would koed brady.

Chiesa has never won a fight by TKO or KO. He's always going to be fighting an uphill battle trying to finish fights there.
