Would Chiesa have finished Ferguson?

[Me&MrJones]

I think he'd have finished Tony, he's a bigger guy and more experienced than Vannata is.



Thoughts?

 

[The Beast Within]

his striking isn't even close to vannata level tho

 

[MysticCam]

If Chiesa gets your back its over

Would pick Tony tho

 

[danny23]

I wouldn't rule it out.

 

[Ruthless_RL]

If Robbie will hurt him, he wouldn't taking his neck.

 

[Dart Feld]

Chiesa wasn't going to throw a funky head kick or throw Ferguson off in general in the stand up.

Chiesa's best chance was always getting Ferguson's back in a scramble and cinching up a choke. I wouldn't have been surprised if he had pulled off the upset but I think he'd have had to walk through fire to do that.

 

[TheFilfyScott]

I wouldn't bet on it. Chiesa is a good striker, but his main strengths are in his grappling. He doesn't throw strikes or avoid them as fluidly as Lando does. We've seen stranger things happen though.

 

[Drake]

I don't know. If it were to have gone to the ground, I think so. Once Chiesa gets working on a sub it's usually over.

 

[ArtemV]

Chiesa's striking is sloppy af, and his shot is strong enough to put Ferguson down.

 

[KeepItRealist]

Not the same fight at all. He never would have gone after Ferguson like that.

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Chiesa is NOTHING like LANDO.

His striking is almost cringe-worthy. Great ground game.

Can't even compare the two fighters imo.

Correct, that has been Chiesa's problem all along. Kind of problem Maia has.

Not in this lifetime

That was so crazy of Masvidal

 

[YoungRonniecoleman]

Ferguson was caught off guard by a rookie that fights like Dillashaw with spinning back fists. He didnt know what he was facing, the only available fights to watch of Vannata are years old and he looked like an amateur in all of them. He still landed punches almost at will, barely missed anything he threw statistically. He would mop the floor with Vannata in a rematch.

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Ferguson would murk him

 

[maxi diablo]

I'm thinking Ferguson's ground game is just as good.

 

[Willek]

Ferguson would kill Chiesa.

 

[riitzni]

Chiesa constantly wins when I think he's done for. Lauzon was the exception. I like his chances against Fergy.

I think Ferguson would have an easy time with Chiesa, but I also thought Dariush would, so what do I know.
