  • The Blackzilians Days: I been to a lot of gyms thus far in my journey to build this AOF brand and I can honestly say, that I have never ever seen two fighters go at it like Kamaru Usman & Michael Johnson. Witnessing those two go at it, is better than watching a fight live.

      MJ has explosive power & speed, along w great hands, but needs cardio and may also need to do some strength training. This will also give him more explosive power. He's obviously working w some great wrestlers, but it looks like always gets manhandled on the ground like in this video ala Khabib or Elkins. For this he may need to go back up to 155.

    The way MJ landed that 3 punch combination after slipping Usman's straight right at the end was clean. Crazy how he has beaten Tony, Barboza and Poirier. Just shows how much one loss can set you back. Zero shame in losing to Khabib at this point and If Gaethje wasn't such a savage, MJ would have KO'd him in the first. If he stays at 45 I want to see him fight Cub Swanson. Nothing but hands flying all over the place

      Chris, I think Randy Couture was the first proponent of this style, along w Mark Coleman & Kerr. It's frustrating & demoralizing as hell to your opponent, who just finds himself in a hopeless situation. Of course it helps big time if you're juiced to the Gills like the last 2. The original G&Pers didn't have the submissions of the BJJ guys, so punching, kneeing, head butting & elbowing were their "submissions".

      Training. Listen to Usman encouraging him while he's on top @2:40 Usman's crushing Mike BUT coaching him on how to get out of the position at the same time AND w/o giving up the position or bailing to give Mike an easy way out. The reality is this level of ground and pound training helps you realize why as a striker, you have to keep your ground game sharp 'cause if you don't, you'll get MAULED. Really puts a spot light on where cardio is most important too. GREAT JOB to both fighters!

Usman is showing no mercy because any fighter MJ goes against will show him even less. You have to create that intensity in order to prepare to fight someone who wants to kill you. With that being said, convince Tyrone Spong to spar Usman lol I know everyone wants to see that.

    my respect of Michael johnson just went way up that dude is putting in the work to better his game. we all know wrestling isnt his strong suit so he train's with an amazing wrestler and improves. i cant wait to see both of them in the octagon again

    In my boxing gym there are all those kids who want to become pro fighters and they always go hard in sparring at the beginning. After a couple of knockdowns they are never seen again. I think it takes a tremendous amount of mental toughness to be a real fighter. I sure as hell don't have that, but at least I enjoy training :D :D

    michael needs a restart in his career theres no reason why he has 13 losses even tho most of them are to high ass level people his record still doesnt depict how good of a fighter he is. and if he was to rematch elkins i think hed finish him too. i think 145 is his restart. anatoy of a fighter show him this comment if u can

    • @darkmagician1710

      JaayProdiJaay MJ is definitely a beast. I think his problem is that he looks for the knockout too much and gasses himself out in a lot of his fights. At the same time it's hard for some guys to adjust the way they fight when they've fought one year their entire career.

      That's not a good thing if you can't compete with the best. If everytime you fight the best you lose That's not a good thing especially for champion visions

  • @stjfv01
    @stjfv01 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Grueling training, it’s not knockout throws just high end aggression, to feel as real as an actual fight in the octagon. Getting controlled and someone’s on top for that long, is simply exhausting! Some excellent training here

      @rednguyen1855 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dan B aldo has a weak chin and mj is way better and has better striking and better defense than aldo, my money is on him if he fought conor

  • @TomAnderson.
    @TomAnderson. ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Men Michael Johnson is wild. Sparring Usman at that phase is crazy and he is doing it so simple. And then taking him down and keeping him down is even crazier. He is really strong for his weight if you tell me.

    Crazy how good Usman wrestling and G&P is. I’ve seen it before but damn he’s actually better then what he looks like on fight day. Still got Burns winning by Submission but I can see Usman will not give more then 1 or 2 windows for that chance to happen. Elite fighter for sure

  • @therooffairy5979
    @therooffairy5979 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    MJ's combos in counter are so awesome...i always feel sorry to see him down against the cage though...fuck he has carved up some fighters...it's only the real hard arses like Diaz, Gaehtje and Khabib who have made him seem like he isnt a straight up hard cunt.
    Respect, thanks again for these amazing uploads, your channel is the shit!

  • @catch2080
    @catch2080 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    1:27 Usman feints 2 times, MJ drops to guard defend. Kamaru learns the pattern and uppercuts him on the 3rd feint. Very calculated
