Ben Askren: "Paddy Pimblett was SO TIRED" vs. Tony Ferguson #shorts #ufc #danielcormier #mma #fight #fighting #paddythebaddy #paddy #ufc296 #conormcgregor
@@juangmail4880 you say casual like it’s some kinda insult. I’ve been aware of Ben Askren since he was winning championships at Mizzou…have you? Anyway, my point is that he lacks humility. It looks funny on someone that got treated the way he did when he faced the highest level of competition.
Ben does have a point. Originally, Tony Ferguson was a wrestler. That's where the "ankle pick" meme came from. But his whole career in UFC he virtually did zero wrestling. And he can't use running out of cardio as an excuse, he has a lot of cardio that's why he was a wrestler.
@@potta061nah, just meant I don't see who he beats in top 15, maybe Bobby Green? But I think he gets smashed by everyone else, would like to see him vs Drew Dober
@@haggisman0812 Tony was ranked though so shouldn’t he take his ranking position? Paddy is terrible so definitely shouldn’t be anywhere near the top 30
As a nobody who’s had a couple of amateur boxing matches I can say also that a good punch will totally and instantly sap your energy especially late in a fight. Gassing is more complex than people realise. I’m sure paddy’s cardio probably can do with some work. He was ballooning up between fights like it’s funny but if you want to be the UFC champion it’s not going to help now is it? There’s guys in his division that will fight at an insane pace and not be that tired.
@danielhancock6633 Because tony is fucking washed up and on top of that was doing that goofy goggings training. Don't get me wrong I fucking love goggings but what use does running 100 miles until you puke do for him his stamina is fine especially against pimblet. Feel like it just wasn't smart.
Tony didnt "forget". He got the shit kicked out of him in round one. That affects your decision making in the rest of the fight. Paddy might have been tired, but the work had an effect on Tony.
@@riversedgekickboxing694that makes zero sense. He walked all over Tony. So by that you’re saying Tony is a low level amateur. Nonsense take. Paddy actually looked good. Way better boxing but still not great. Did awesome on the ground against a top tier wrestler. So he got tired from trying to finish? So have lots of fighters.
@@TheBajaminOver a 39 year Tony on a 6-fight skid. If you're not finishing Tony after the Chandler execution, you're doing something wrong. Diaz and Green understood the assignment.
He’d smoke Ben askrens stupid ass too Ben talking shit like Conor needs someone easy when he did way more than Ben did just cuz he wrestled outside of ufc doesn’t mean he’s good in it. Ben is so stupid for even commenting on Conor needing someone easy knowing damn well he couldn’t beat him with his shitty wrestling and no striking experience whatsoever
@@Youssef06_ Probably not, we have a pretty good relationship with the scousers considering many Dubliners settled there and they even have the nickname "Paddys that can swim"
Oh you mean the man that dominated every organization outside of the ufc for years? The Olympic gold medalist? Yeah I know him his name is Ben Askren. Put a little respect on the name DORK
I think we all grown enough to know alot of things... Ben's wrestling was amazing & accomplished alot with it, he also had no striking ability and carried on waaay past his time and got met with a flying knee from god.
@@DGetsStackslet's be fair Ben could never predict someone would roll the dice of fate on a flying knee like Masvidal did. And at "that" time dude wasn't no creampuff guy whatsoever lol. Can't blame him for getting his brains mangled by a reckless wolf from Florida.
Kilonova, of course there’s always that one guy who has to bring that up as if it defines the man’s whole career. Anybody can get knocked out in a matter of seconds, anybody. Jose Aldo is a great champion and we saw it happen to him. So the Masvidal flying knee as a means to define Askren’s career is just stupid.
To be fair paddy is huge for lightweight and is very strong, everybody who works out knows there’s two types of cardio. Anarobic and aerobic, one hits the lungs and heart whilst the other is the lactic acid in the muscle. Chandler, dricus, costa, and pantoja are other examples where they are clearly tired but the muscles aren’t full of lactic acid so they can still push through but their lungs are burning
Its a fight. Get your shit together. I don’t give a shit about different types of cardio. You either got it and can push through or you dont got it and your gonna get smashed. Paddy clearly doesn’t have it. He would loose to Tiporia. Volk. And any top 10 LW at 155. Minus maybe Dan Hooker. The rest of them would eat him alive. Imagine him against islam 😂. Get real bro.
@@charlessmith3940 What are you talking about? Paddy DID get his shit together he faced adversity and won. Will he be champ? Probably not, but he’s a fun fighter to watch.
Paddy is such trash, at least he’s acting a little more humble lately though. If you wanna run your mouth the way Paddy was, you’ve gotta be able to back it up, and he’s just barely surviving these fights.
Talk shit all you want but he’s undefeated in UFC and only 3 in his whole career. So at a certain point he has skills and he’s literally backing it up. And he didn’t “barely” beat Tony. He dominated Tony.
Yea that humbling was much appreciated by most I believe. Atleast it was for me but he is extremely overrated. I was happy he basically admitted he lost the Gordon fight because he did😂
Everybody knows AssCream’s legacy. He got knocked out faster than anybody else ever in the UFC. Wrestling and amateur mma doesn’t mean squat in regards to the UFC lmao
He got KOd stiff in 3 seconds, He layed and prayed on some japanese cans. The only person he ever beat who could make the ufc roster is Douglas Lima. Robbie Lawler fell into a submission after beating out of and back into consciousness. I know his resume
Nobody wants to talk about the absoulte onslaught he threw at Tony in the first. I'm sure he was tired, probably doesn't help most his camp is spent on weight loss.
That dude screwed tony so bad.. imagine getting a inflated story book life person to train you and be in your corner but has no idea about fighting other than to remember his own fake stories
Paddys not the most technical but he’s always been down to scrap and gives the general fans what they want, which is entertaining fights. I was impressed with how he handled the conference and appears more down since his fight with Gordon.
I also like his personality adjustment. He seems smart enough to realize how despicable his behaviour added up and how the spotlight got to his head. Im old enough now where the 'old' washed up fighters are a decade younger than me. Paddy is a kid in my eyes, he deserves some slack.
Tony was ontop and then let Paddy up and was immediately taken down...and Paddy didn't let him up...WHY TONY?!?! Smash, ground and pound, try to choke him out, why let him up??
The irony is that Ben probably would've won that fight if not for that one knee. He's objectively a much better fighter than Masvidal ever was, at least in his prime
Paddy needs to go up a division and then see where he is going forward. The weight cuts are slowly killing him. Same with Dustin and Justin though I'm not sure any of them will carry their power up one division
paddys style is goated, hes no offensive grappler like ben. hes no defensive striker like tony. he has a very jon jones eske style. its called evoluting.
As much as i respect Ben Askren for being one of the greatest wrestlers ever and always standing on business like a man. He shouldn't speak on striking😂. My mans needs a basic course.
