Wow! Does Hendricks really think Wonderboy was running?

[Kenji Tomiki]

The guy was badlly schooled on the feet and was just hopping for takedown and clinching. I mean it was a FIRST round TKO. I really don't know if this guy is so delusional or it's just communication.

He won't stand and bang, bro

 

[choke you]

Did he actually say this? Just because some guys don't want to engage in a dog fight by standing on the outside and picking their opponents apart doesn't mean they're running away. Hard to say this especially when you get finished in the first.

Yes he did in the post fight conference.

 

[legkicktko]

Very few if any elite strikers will hang in the pocket.

Conor, Pettis, Thompson, Rockhold, Barboza etc are all pretty elusive in style

Given how easily Wonder Boy put away Hendricks it's a bad indicator for Lawlor. Lawlor went 25 minutes with Hendricks twice. Wonder Boy smashed him in under 5.

Robbie better get comfortable not having the belt.

Hendricks at the post fighter presser:
"He didn't fire back. He would continue to move. And then all of a sudden it was like, oh c'mon. I wanted him to fight, I wanted him to fight, I wanted him to fight. But I'm playing into his game."


lol. Johny got his ass beat though... so who was the one fighting?

Delisuional and a real lack of advesity in his life.

 

[Mae]

Yeah that was a typical Hendricks comment. He finished you with strikes in the first round......

You're forgetting the king of elusiveness, doot

Spoiler: Cruz bless

 

[shortlefthook]

People on this forum cling to everything johnny says to try and have a go at him.
What johnny was saying is wonderboy was avoiding all inside fighting, he never was a stationary target, people quote this shit but dont quote the countless times johnny said thompson was the better man, and that he felt great wonderboy was just the better man.
Pathetic how you morons act like vultures.

 

[the can]

when hendrix was one punch KO man, i liked him. since his corner was heard yelling "hide your head!!" during the lawler fight, i have zero love for him.

less and less every time he speaks now.

Everything Askren told us about Hendricks is turning out to be true.

I agree. MMAmath doesn't always work but in this case, I think it does clearly.

 

[HIGH VALUE]

yeah just like this girl told me Holy was running from RR the whole fight

 

[orangecuse]

The dudes hung, clinged to fighters and rested his head under fighters balls for rounds at a time. He got schooled and smashed on the feet in a few minutes times.

He was also mad that his training partners were only going at 70%.

 

[Senzo Tanaka]

Hendricks was respectful but threw in a few jabs like (paraphrasing)..."Anytime I went to throw a strike, he wasn't there and evaded" and "I prefer fights like Lawler where we just stand and trade".

So yeah, like Diaz, he thinks guys like Thompson run away instead of fighting. I thought a KO would humble Hendricks but he blames his training partners and a bad style match up.

He read Nick's book. That's excuse number 1 right there, according to Diaz.

 

[robotsonic]

Yeah this stands as one of the most deluded things said by a guy after a loss, you got KOed in the first round dude...Do you understand what 'running away' means?

 

[finalboss]

That's what happens when you and your gameplan are one dimensional.
