Oh man Makdessi, wrong strategy bud. He should have been on the Cowboy like white on rice. He should have grabbed on and held on for dear life instead of standing right in range, ughh that was tough to watch.
Makdessi isn't paid shit, if he was getting 50k a fight he might have continued but with the shitty pay and shitty Reebok he cant risk being out a year. This is what The Fertitta's are doing to their UFC.
Horrible matchup for Makedessi. Even if he goes inside, he has to deal with Cerrone's knees and clinch. Cowboy had him ranged for both left and right head kicks. Horrifying. Makdessi did well considering everything.
I'd rather knees and clinch over kicks. Less danger, knees are easier to avoid than kicks. They are slower and easier to see coming. Yeah if your head is getting bounced it's bad but standing in his range 100% guarantees getting rocked. It was like watching a trainwreck before it goes off the rails.
No way dude, that's a bad argument. In every single area there is danger. Grappling, striking or groundgame there will always be danger but it's not pick your poision. It's pick a 100% chance of loss or something less than 100% that's why it's dumb. You can't just say don't go with the better strategy because it also has danger. Every strategy will have danger some with a better chance of winning.
I hate myself a bit after watching Arlovski vs Browne, picked Arlovski at first to win it but later changed my pick. God damn it. Arlovski looked like a monster though
Glad to see Arlovski get the win. He looked like the pitbull of old in there which made me happy. I thought he was done when he got dropped after being overly aggressive (déjà vu), but Browne was too rocked to capitalize. He just fell off of Arlovskis back. Great win for Andrei.
I was spending the whole fight waiting for him to go blow it as soon as he rocked him. Then he did... and Browne was to damn rocked himself to do anything about it :laugh:
Love seeing AA win especially when its in a spectacular fashion. Still don't believe he'll ever be champion but who knows, I have been proven wrong before.
