You are an obnoxious know it all. People would be more inclined to listen to you if you weren't such a douchebag about your position. We understand that you have experience in this field. Your experience though does not entitle you to condescend every poster you disagree with.
Honestly, I wish you would :-)... or at least dial it back a bit.vb
I understand man. But you gotta understand that nothing gets on my nerves more than guys who don't know shit about this stuff that show up like dumbass fanboys to talk. In the last fight that's what happened. [Reply]

I'm talking about the epic mustache/beard guy at the cage entrance eyeballing the refs inspecting the fighters. He had the Billy Gibbons with the shaved out middle. [Reply]

If you remember from previous MMA discussions, I am an admitted n00b. I respect your knowledge so I ask you things, even though you are patently abrasive in conversation. The "part I didn't get" was you making a claim and not bothering to substantiate it whatsoever. But you do somewhat in the post I am quoting now, so thank you. Your comments about how certain types of fighters not showing improvement, historically, (which I didn't know) is very interesting to me and gives some substantiation to your claim.
Tried to answer this last night but the server was all fucked up.
Some guys just never get better at certain aspects of their game.
Chael Sonnen is always going to lose to good jiu jitsu guys. Tito Ortiz never developed a stand up worth a shit in 10 years. Randy Couture was never going to submit many guys.
There are certain aspects of MMA that some guys just can never get much better in for whatever reason and it's obvious that Brock is never going to be very good on his feet. For a guy that big he lacks power and punches like a t-rex.
Tito for example, hired boxing coach after boxing coach but he could never knock anyone out. He just didn't have that ability, and could never win a stand up battle. According to you, he should have improved. But he didn't. Why? Because some guys just don't in some areas and always have weaknesses they can't fix.
Some wrestlers, like Rashad, Cain and Kosh, do get better on their feet but it's rare for wrestlers to do that because they spent their lives on the mat. Carwin just happens to be a guy that has big power, but he's not like Cain with pin point accuracy. He's more of a 1 punch guy where Cain hits you with 4,5,6 right on the money.
Either way, Brock is done as champ. He's been exposed as the 1 trick pony that he is. Stuff his shoot and make him stand and secondly, it's OBVIOUS he does NOT like to get hit. He ran like a fucking bitch against CArwin when he got hit and did the exact same thing against Cain. That is NOT the heart of a fighter. Brock is really kind of a pussy. I find it funny that guys on here had their lips so firmly attached to his nuts. [Reply]

So right after Lesnar got his ass handed to him, he still feels up to talking shit to an old guy on his way out? Well, at least he pretended to have class when Rogan was interviewing him. [Reply]

Yeah he's a douche man. I knew guys like him growing up and they remain a douche bag forever.
I just wonder where CoMo and Bo Bice are. Seeing how they had so much to say after the last fight. [Reply]
Well, at least one fella from South Dakota won last night. When they showed the Madsen fight, my buddy stood up in the bar and yelled, "I fucked his cousin!" She is not attractive. :-) Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]
