His coach is too blame.....purely striking coach ....same thing with usman ...instead of mixing their wrestling with striking ,he focuses on purely striking
@@RelaxingSeconds Na you dont know how tired you get wrestling even for short amounts of time. Guy's with great wrestling who don't use it in fights are just lazy. It's not their coaches telling them they're better off standing. It happens a lot Yoel didnt wrestle either and had terrible cardio.
And lazy is the complete wrong word, experienced is better. They have the experience to know if they wrestle someone for a round and the guy fights it and doesn't just go to his back, in round 2 they're going to be down a gear because they blew it in the first. It's not that they'll be exhausted just definitely can't knock their opponent out is the rationale imo
The MMA Gods quickly reminded Justin that they want blood and yeeted him into a punt front kick LMFAO Edit: OMG Gathje actually landed a takedown in his UFC career. I'm losing my mind!
I swear if this didn’t have me gasping for air, yeah I believe Justin must be half Mexican, and that half must still owe something to them old Aztec gods for them to have did him like that
@@brandonamezquita4501 Yeah FR this is why I never Grapple or Lock against another Better Grappler. I'm gonna do everything in my Power to keep them just at mid counterstriking range. And if they try to push into smother or grapple the I'd just start to Brawl with Short, Sharp, Fast, Compact shots. Specifically as tight as possible to Brawl on the inside even when smothered. The closest I'll get to Grappling with a Grappler is Hand Trapping and Framing for a Free Strike. And even then that's risky if the other guy gets pissed of from getting Pummeled and just forces his way in. But if you master brawling I find using this method against a Grappler. They would basically have to be bigger then your Weight class. Or they need to also have an amazing Striking base. Since I find if you master inside compact strikes. You can even land multiple body shots in a row even when as point blank as can be. The hardest part of this method is learning how to generate power from no distance. As well as how to pull back in a clench to get a couple inches to land more powerful body shots. But this part requires such split second reaction time.
@@brandonamezquita4501 Yeah learning to Brawl and Frame off a clinch using Thai Style Blocks and Clinches really helped me learn how to fight at an even level with people bigger. Or who are just so good I'll be in a hold or submission before I can even think. Reversals, Escapes, Defenses, Holding Guard, Redirections were the only things I picked up from different Grappling Arts. I find the only way to deal with Grapplers under rules with no strikes if your less skilled. Is to have a million different reversals and back pocket techiques that work against what they're trying to do. It's the most boring way to fight but definitely the smartest and most efficient and effective. Never understood why people would play to a Grapplers game as a Striker. Tried for years but I'll never be a master of say Brazilian Juijitsu. Even though I know practically every single Guard, Defense, and Pull from the art.
I think he remembered about the knee that he was eating the entire fight and realized he's vulnerable to it while attempting the takedown, so he decided to abandon the position... cartoonishly
Yeah hes actually a really skilled and credentialed wrestler. In this attempt He didn't really try in fact I feel like that was an instinct and as soon as he realized what he was doing he backed away lol just on suprise factor alone Justin can take down anyone he just doesn't choose to. It's one of the most frustrating things ever, he could be so much better than what he is and still be exciting.
@@phantom_mist1726 I doubt he would be able to do anything even if he did take them down and it would be wasted energy since he says wrestling tires him out
