    When you fight a Polynesian who has anywhere near your fighting experience, you're likely in trouble. "All the Samoan kids got picked on at my school"- said no one ever.

      @@sugabender2119 At that time Soa fought him he wasnt that good or regarded highly. It was 2013 when Krylov was only 21 and making his UFC debut. So a 21 yr old Krylov was the only UFC opponent he faced then when he fought Barry which is weak competition and why Soa was a betting underdog to Barry despite a win streak.

      I mean I do not know the details, I wasnt there nor do I condone the action. But come on man coaches are looked at as Father figures, role models and mentors. What you call grooming is coaching. Have you ever been in a fight gym? The comaraderie , and close social group. Women look for strong men and Rose probably started to catch feelings, just like you did for your school teacher or older camp counselor. Obviosuly you need to be of legal age so who knows but there us a lot of talk online that looks like a smear campaign for sure.

    I remember reading an article on Pat Berry in Kung Fu Tai Chi Magazine. It was about pat bringing Sanda/ San Shou style fighting into MMA, that was almost 15 years ago. For those who don't know Sanda is the basics used in almost all styles of Kung fu (various kicks punches, sweeps, throws) basicly its Chinese kickboxing with Shuai jiao (traditional Chinese grappling/wrestling). So it's half way between MMA and Kick boxing, the striking in Sanda and the throws are on average better than what you find in Kivkbocing and the throws are more utilized and better than what you typically find in MMA. A great example of a Sanda fighter who went to MMA was Cung Le. He was a champ many times over in Sanda/ San shou and did everything he could in the sport and decided to go to MMA and dominated. At the time Frank Shamrock was pretty much recognized as the best in the world in his division and he was the champ in Strike Force and Cung le was tearing up the competition and finally beat Shamrock at his peak for the title and broke his arms with devastation kicks. Anyways sorry for the lesson on all that, my overall point was that I always found pat berry as a neat person in MMA ever since then, I remember watching him on TV also maybe a couple weeks before I read that article so I never forgot about him. Also made it very interesting to see Rose Namajunas's style and to know they are a couple and to see the Chinese influence in her style when it comes to kicks and striking

    • @williamsmith1803
      @williamsmith1803 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Come on, man. The sanda stuff was really interesting and all, but #1 traditional chinese martial arts aren't nearly as practical as the stuff mma guys train with like wrestling, so they didn't have better throws or strikes than the mma guys had and #2 Cung Le was never even in the top 7 middleweights, much less "dominated" the weight class. Frank Shamrock was seen as the best fighter at his weight by far in 2008? Did you forget about the fact that Prime Anderson Silva, Nate Marquardt, Vitor Belfort, Gegard Mousasi, and others existed outside of the strikeforce bubble? Cung Le would've been fortunate to have made it to a 3rd round against any of those guys, nevermind beat any of them. He went 2-2 in the UFC and was ko'd in both losses --- one being in a war with a completely shot Wanderlei Silva.

      @@williamsmith1803 Chung didn’t transition to mma until his 40s and was kinda chubby, cardio was shit. In his prime in San Shou, the shoulder tosses, trips and leg sweeps were legit for mma. Definitely not a weak martial art for mma, between the kickboxing and sweeps it is pretty viable. The thing is though that good modern wrestlers can just dominate anyone in mma. See GSP or Kamaru Usman for examples

      @williamsmith1803 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Him and Bigfoot were both night and day, before and after USADA. There wasn't/isn't a whole lot regular heavyweight mma fighters --- who are like 6'1-6'3 and a flabby 240-250 lbs --- could/can do against someone who's 6'4-6'5 and a solid 270-280 lbs. Once they got on top of someone, it was like "what the fuck is any human being supposed to be able to do in this position?". Even Fedor couldn't get out from under Bigfoot. It shows how much of a difference PEDs make. After USADA, they both just became more of the same fat, slow heavyweights we have now. Some really hardcore "just bleed" fans want there to be a division where fighters are allowed to use whatever they want, just for the sake of having fighters like them and Brock back on the scene, but that's about as likely to come to fruition as bringing back the Extreme era rule set (no biting, no oraphis/eye manipulation, no small joint manipulation, and no attacking the groin).
