Straight ruined the technical beauty of this fight, full fight is not highlight this is a highlight video, you cut most of the Count's footwork, it is a must to see how he defended against a good kicker.
Cung is old. He is 42. He was in the movie business for the past few years and didn't train and fight on the rain. Moreover, his eye was hurt by his opponent. I think Cung can defeat his opponent in his prime time.
They did Cung wrong with that eye. Most of the sissy fighters that whine about eye pokes get coddled, fed, and burped. They didn't even stop for a moment to check that eye and Cung spent the rest of the fight blind essentially.
This is a good time to remind you Bisping fought this fight post the belfort fight, and was already blind in one eye here himself. Cung Le's eye was for sure comprimised, but he was not actually blind.
@@gabrieltsgardner9942 I know Bisping is a tough dude for fighting with essentially one good eye and a door peephole view out of the other according to him. I still feel they didn't even give a cursory stop and check for Cung's eye when they do for every other fighter and fight out there. He was signaling to check they eye like any other fighter does and they ignored him and Cung was expecting a stop and took unnecessary damage because of it though he should protect himself at all times. I don't know if the fight would have ended any different but this is just a weird example where the officials acted completely different than normal in this case vs any other fight.
Cung Le was past his prime when he started MMA...He didn't have the hunger he would have he had so many things taking his time away from being all in He gave some but not all he was already spent when he started in MMA could have been untouchable he half assed trained cuz he didn't have the hunger or the time.
Cung Lê thua trận này, do đối thủ mạnh một phần. Phần nữa do anh một thời gian rời ra võ đài để đóng phim, nên giảm đi phản xạ và công lực cùa người đấu sĩ !
Cung had an off night, he was old and he got started in mma way late in his ma career. I think on a goid night le would have beat Michael. Cung is a far more skilled fighter.
Cung Le could have been the real Bruce Lee type fighter a clone of Bruce Lee instead of Bruce Lee wantabe Fighter turned Actor But Cung was a late starter and didn't get into MMA til he was spread too thin with other things he wasn't able to be all in cuz he already had his own successful Gym he was doing that Judo AKA? He was a undefeated champion in it and he was already acting in B movies and a star in Asia his home was Vietnam where he left during the fall of Saigon no excuses but you didn't see the best Cung Le you got some of him but not a young hungry Cung Le he already hurting for time..He was also single father to 2 young toddlers when he was fighting..He wasn't in his prime he was past it as a full fledge fighter but a little was good.enough for me..Real life Bruce Lee Loved to see him in earlier in his career.still bad @$$
@@chaxologist2961 lmao why did cung le beat frank shamrock then? Frank trained in wrestling and orthodox kickboxing. Sanda is a formidable art he is old as shit when fighting bisping
@@bachconneshon7809 Didn't you listen to what I said or you don't get what I meant by "English Pugilist"? Let me set you straight: Classical English Pugilism from the 1700s has some "unorthodox" techniques by today's standards similar to Sanda like the spinning backfists and the Cross-Guard (similar to the one Archie Moore and George Foreman uses; that's how Jack Slack defeated the English champion Jack Broughton) because it has little to no rules in fighting back then and was all fought bare knuckle unlike today's watered-down MMA striking training such as the one you described as "orthodox Kickboxing" where they train with huge 8 ounce gloves for striking which massively neglects their striking defense for MMA when fighting with 4 ounce gloves, leaving them open for unorthodox attacks like the spinning backfists from Cung Le. The perfect example of this orthodox flaw is when Zhang Weili exposed Joanna Jędrzejczyk's watered-down Muay Thai guard (since she primarily trains with 8 ounce gloves for her Muay Thai specialty instead of the traditional bare knuckle training old-school Pugilists do with the Cross Guard) with a spinning backfist knockout. That is the perfect case of how unorthodox technique by today's watered-down standards catches orthodox defenses off guard. Therefore, Michael Bisping is the closest there is to an old school English bare knuckle Pugilist with some "unorthodox" attacks minus the Cross Guarded defense that enabled Jack Slack to easily glance off the English champion's sharp and technical attacks and land blinding blows to victory!
