I have good 1-2, decent kicks and minimal takedown skills but I don't consider myself a fighter. I consider myself a guy who knows a bit more about fighting than average person.

Izzy got away with throwing wide hooks for far too long. Straight down the pipe always beats a big hook
Giorgio Petrosyan uses a constant 2-3 with a jab and the occasional uppercut and he's got 100+ wins

I now understand why the MMA community always rips into 'causal mma fans'. Comments like this are cringe.

Strickland ripped Izzy apart thread by thread. Dominating him for the vast majority of the fight. Blocking, dodging, countering, maintaining tempo, and controlling vital regions of the octagon. It's rare to see such top to bottom domination in a title fight.

Contrast this with a fight where a fighter throws a huge right hook and randomly gets a KO. KO punches can be calculated, but in many cases, they are just random haymakers being thrown. What happened last night in Strickland v Adesanya was an absolute master class.

In short, casual mma observers don't understand the meaning of 'art' in mixed martial arts.

This.

Izzy has gotten knocked out and still did the press conference afterwards because the victory can be written off as 'fighters luck'. It's easy to digest a loss when you can attribute it to 'he just got lucky ill get him next time.'

But what Strickland did to Izzy was such an ass whooping the China man couldn't even hold himself together for the post-fight interview. He knows he got his ass so throughly destroyed that he can't boast 'ill get him next time.' Izzys soul was ripped out.

This is what the casual mma observer doesn't understand, and why this KO anon is an idiot.

This is why it was actually good that it wasn't a knockout, nobody can argue Sean had puncher's chance. This was almost 5 full rounds of complete domination.

I'm actually wrong, he uses a 3-2 and a step in knee. Been a while since I watched him regularly
But yeah his whole game is built on timing and technical perfection, not having a huge arsenal

why is there a complete lack of wrestling at middleweight. even Romero never used his wrestling. even guys that could wrestle like Rockhold, and Jacare never wrestled, and they've both retired.

Anyways its going to be interesting to see how Khamzat and Bo Nickal go.

Basically front kick using the heel part of your foot, not the toes, you try to stomp the guy with your heel.

Fighting as a wrestler reduces your pay, if you are not the champion.
Striking leads to fights that fans like better.

Even an aggressive grappler with a strong submission game like Demian Maia sometimes was not popular because of this.

Sean has god tier pacing and distance control. That will always matter infinitely more than any fancy combos.
