Good thing no serious MMA spectator judges fights based on extremely superficial similarities such as "oop both wrestled in college and throw big punches".


Good thing there's a pretty marked difference in fighting style, tempo, and approach between the fighters as well as having largely separate skillsets.

He might have one of the fastest lead hooks in the game. That Lead hook/straight combo was fluid and powerful.

I picked Kampman and hoped he'd win, but I was smart enough to not bet on this fight. Won all bets tonight!

Anyone else see that outcome within the first few seconds before it happened. Kampmann has an engineer background yet he can't see that he has to watch out for that in the first where Hendrick's is at 100% health. Instead of moving laterally, side to side he moves backwards...kapow! Kampmann is by far the technical striker, but the one shot KO ruled the day today. Poor guy got clocked cleanly right between his guard I think.

Hendricks will pose an interesting threat to GSP's throne since he's a very decorated wrestler.

Same with all this but I was dumb enough to put credits on Kampmann. Christ, don't go straight backwards.

As for GSP vs Hendricks, I think GSP, like Kampmann, is vastly superior to Hendricks technically, but we all know he has good strategies and sticks to them. He wouldn't dare get near that hook

As for wrestling, doesn't matter what your credentials are, against GSP, youre getting taken down.

Kampmann really has no sense of cagemanship what so ever. Honestly some of the worst I've seen. It's a shame because if Kampmann's horrendous fight IQ matched his actual skillset, I think he could pose several problems for St. Pierre.

That being said, what a knockout. One of the cleanest I've seen in a while. I think Hendricks definitely deserves a shot.

As for Kampmann, let's do Condit/Kampmann II

Johnny Hendricks is a bad mother****er. His last 3 fights he's knocked out Martin Kampmann and Jon Fitch, and decisioned Josh Koscheck. If that's not a run worthy of a title shot, then **** knows who you've gotta beat these days!

So much truth!!



Man I love Hendricks more and more. He always seems so excited to talk about his fights and wins.

"Are you more of a thread to GSP than Anderson Silva?"

"...no"
