Stop shaving your mustache please trim it with a half I love you Wonderboy but Steven it's ok if you become a wonderman by the way you won the 170lbs in my eyes before in your past and lost it when u got choked by lucky Tyrone your a champion
I love the round by round analysis along with the overall fight analysis. Feels like you're re-watching the fight and taking notes rather than just general thoughts after 1 live watch, even if it is just 1 watch.
It felt, to me, that Vera went in there expecting to fight the same guy he did last time. But O'Malley's evolution has been subtle, in that he hasn't changed his style. O'Malleyhas just gotten better at every part of his game since that first fight.
That was an awesome video! I think Cory is the only other fighter that is literally breaking down striking like this, and I love it! Especially for big fights that just happened!
@@jugo1944Sean’s takes him down and subs or gnp him, either that or he knocks haggerty out cos haggerty will need to learn mma striking which is a different striking style to Muay Thai
The only fight he’s actually shot for takedowns is against terrion ware and Petr yan, honestly I think it might just be his height which of course makes it harder for him to level changer but if he started to implement trips and clinch dumps he will stay champ for a long time.
You were there??? So was I! My first UFC Event ever, couldn't ask for a better first event Also, they didn't put you on the jumbo tron??? HOW DARE THEY
@@surfin90 Basically if it’s over 30 days they had some kind of serious injury. Broken bones, torn muscles, concussions, etc. The longer the suspension, the worse the injury is. Indefinite also means they are unsure how serious the injury is.
People just hate on him for non fight stuff and bs drama. If you look at the actual fighter O'Malley is a real dude. His only con is he has to lose soo much weight for his size that he gets hurt more often
Thunderboy Whompson. Do the letter switch of first and last names. Once in a while it creates magic like the name “Thunderboy Whompson”. This dude absolutely BETTER get Hall of Fame recognition. He’s the nicest, most supportive person ever, yet he’ll fight anyone. Let’s go. The opposition needs a “Ridgehand”
He's in the convo for sure. Pereira, Adesanya, Fiziev, Sandhagen, Yan, Holloway, Shevchenko, Weili and of course Wonderboy 😉 Probably a few more I'm not thinking of, but it's hard to pick a "best"
What are you on? Pereira and Adesanya, sure, I can see that. But none of the other dudes are even the best in their divisions, and the women are not competing against the same level of competition.
Hey Stephen. Do you have any advice for slipping? What are feet doing? What is the weight distribution on the feet? For the front foot is it the big toe or the mid foot? For the back foot is it the heels? Midfoot? Are you supposed to pivot your feet as you slip? If so which way do you pivot? How much do you pivot? Which foot do you pivot? Do you squat down? How far? For someone who is short do they squat lower or move their body higher? How about the direction we pivot (assuming there is a pivot)? I gotta work on defense so any tips for slipping/rolling would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
Been a fan of Suga his whole UFC career. He’s gotten so much better every time. I like Chito also but this was sad watching Chito get pieced up like that. Great content Wonder Boy!!!
I love your striking analysis! I respectfully request that you do such a video on the women's flyweight Natalia Silva. She is a space management machine who never gets tired with a wicked fast front leg!
0:45 Step by step, ooh, baby Gonna get to you, girl Step by step, ooh, baby Really want you in my world Whatchu know bout them NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK @WonderboyMMA ?!?! 🕺🏻
Hey Stephen, as a fan I want to suggest you upload your review videos sooner. That’ll make sure you get more attraction and more viewership, because by now most people have already viewed several breakdown videos of the card and people are way less curious.
@@nb-rc8nf We will see lol. A lot of friends in the fight game end up matching up against each other. Example Haney vs Garcia. Both Great fighters though!
Hey Stephen, what is it that prevents a fighter like Chito to not push forward into close range while getting smashed at distance? It would seem like a natural reaction to move in to reduce the power and snap coming your way. Does it become almost an involuntary reaction to stay back so you can try to see where the threat is coming from and avoid it? It just seems strange to remain at the end of punch range with a guy like O’Malley and eat shot after shot after shot. At some point I would think you just blitz in and do anything but do what Chito did for 25 minutes. Strange.
Not sure exactly what is going on with that. He doesn't always have it, as seen in his ad promo in the beginning of this video. However, he has had several videos with redness on his mustache area. It maybe from a breathing apparatus or he gets irritated easily. Fair skin, everything is noticeable.
How on Earth could we ever know who’s the best striker? This promotion has: O’Malley Wonderboy Topuria Adesanya Pereira Aspinall (great boxer) I mean. Striker how? Boxer/kickboxer? How do you classify it? Least hit/most sig strikes? Both?
People talking about that body shot like it was a fight ending punch have just not watched combat sports enough lol. When people get hit by a GOOD body shot, you drop instantly, you don't walk around for 15-20 then slowly sit down on the canvas and breath. No, you keel over and hold your side on the spot, in almost every example of a body shot finish we have in the UFC, the person crumbles like a beer can almost instantly from the time they take the body shot.
Chito was just done from that knee. Something broke in there. It wasn’t his chin it was the face and if you really look at his face you can see something doesn’t look right on that side. He started covering later because Sean knew it and was nonstop tagging it and even launched that bomb at the area and broke his hand. If Chito would tell the truth he’d say he was done from there and was terrified of taking more shots to that spot. When something goes bang,pop,crack in your body it’s in your mind and has effect on you either way-either it freezes you with fear or makes you hurry up and attack. When you live the street life or prison and it happens you get nasty and gruesome fast or you might get killed-you don’t have time to worry about it-just shut the part of your brain and body off because you could die. Fighting for survival with no rules is big difference and need quicker thinking of what scares a man and cripple him with it. I doubt Sean all the time but he is getting better. I know inside it bothered him that he tagged this guy all night but didn’t put him out-that’s frustrating and a bit of a nightmare of giving a guy all you can and he’s still there. Sean will try and work on that because he could be in trouble in 4-5th round with a guy that takes it but comes at him when he’s tired.
Based on stats Tom Aspinall is currently best striker in ufc. In the 32 tables ranking 4050 fighters over 30 years by objective measurable skills and achievements Tom 1,1,1,1,3,4. He has best striking differential of 4.95, shortest av fight time of just over 2 mins, least bottom position time and least bottom position percentage, 3rd most strikes per min and 4th most knockdowns per 15 mins. If he met the 350 strike threshold, he would be 2nd to overeem in the sig strike accuracy and if he met the 20 takedown defence threshold would be 1st over Arce and JBJ. He has needed just 17 strikes on average per fight in the ufc to gain his 7 victories and one injury loss. 2= are GSP, Oliveira and Jim Miller with three firsts each. However, while Tom's victories are all ratios and percentages that show the best this moment so if he loses a match over 3 rounds by takedowns and being outstruck in one match he would lose all his 1st positions, the other three greats could lose 5 fights each in whatever way you can imagine and keep each of their records until someone supersedes them. GSP most control time, most top time and most takedowns. Oliveira most finishes, most submissions and most fight night bonuses. Miller most fights most wins and most takedown attempts. Legacy records over a career. You have to be truly outstanding at the moment to keep average, ratio and percentage records. Almeida holds two of these with most top position % and control time %. If a strikers job is to hit and not get hit - strike diff, takedown defence, least bottom pos time OR to be a devastating fighter - shortest fight time, fast strikes p min, fastest knockdowns p min (on ufc stats these are knockouts) then these attributes should be applied to others in the running. O Malley has 3 entries on the statleader tables with 4th,8th,9th and is probably next best striker by these criteria. He appears in the top ten tables with 7th best sig strike accuracy at 61.2%, 9th fastest average strikes p minute and the 4th best striking differential at 3.89. OK, not as many entries as Tom and certainly no firsts. What about his average fight time? Out of his 11 ufc fights he has 4 decisions, 1 loss and 6 KO/TKOs. In other words he has 54% finish rate with KO/TKO. Tom Aspinall has an 88% finish rate and 63% KO/TKO rate. O'Malley has required 991 strikes in 11 fights and absorbed 317, absorbing an average of 29 strikes per fight. Tom has absorbed an average of 6 strikes per fight and needed only 17 per fight to beat opposition.
How sugar was masterful: chito in a box, giving free bees, getting mentally frozen doing the same combo's for rounds and none at all and never cutting the cage. Also sugar kept it at range and held on to kicks to jump away. And chito hitting air and couldnt close the gap because of flat feeted back leg and only knew to cover up never reading momentum. Got hyped without landing. Coming out dirty way too late, stopped again. Oh yeah and sugar didnt have to move back. Broke his hand hitting chito's covering up. Also something with 4 dimensional chess. Sunglasses.
Honestly I like Sean o malley but I have to say I thought chito was going to connect at some point in the later rounds and hurt him time for me myself to stop doubting this dude this was literally the Chris muthino fight all over again with a top 5 or top 10 opponent which is crazy to think about
this. and if people really want to watch a karate match they should check out karate kombat. wb even commentates sometimes. me personally when i watch mma i wanna see MIXED martial arts and different arts matched up… not just karate point fights
