    Bo should do what O'Malley did. Keep fighting lower ranked guys until he's off that Contender series contract. No point in rushing to fight a top 5 guy if you're gonna get paid in turnips.

      Ya in between scrambles... Brundage was just laying on his back trying to lock down the position. The first time Cody tried to scramble up Bo subbed him. Bo's fights are going to be fun and high paced when he goes up against some of these monsters in the division who are going to be actually trying to win and arent just going to let another man put them on their back and hold them there

    You know you’re the real deal when you absolutely steam roll a guy in the 1st round while threatening a finish damn near the entire time, actually finish him in the 2nd round, and people call you a fraud afterwards
    I don’t think people realize how unrealistic it is to be able to finish every fight in 1 minute without getting touched like Bo’s previous matches. And they also don’t realize how hard it is to finish somebody who has completely abandoned any offense and is just focused on being a clam and defending

    Henry is most likely talking about how in some dominant positions, Bo couldn’t get anything going ; not just in the instance you mentioned where he had his wrest trapped while they were against the cage, but also when he mounted him center octagon and could not get any offense going. He was only able to maintain the position.

    I was actually hoping you would make a video about this exact topic for the last couple days now. I’ve been thinking about Bo. And you need to have a serious talk about this with Bo. He needs to absolutely be ready for the top 10 mentally. I think he’s there physically. It’s committing 100% and being 1,000,000,000% focused. This is fighting bad things can happen and he needs to be ready and not rush the fights in the top 10. Take the ones he knows he can win. Don’t mess around. And secure the championship, if that’s his goal. With game plans and everything else you need to do to win. Studying opponents. And they won’t be easy. He needs to be completely ready. And he’s reaching the top. It’s about time. It’s about crunch time. Do, or die.

    I agree. I like Bo and enjoyed his last fight but certian points of that fight if he had been fighting a top 10 he'd have been in real trouble. If they push him to fast it'll be a repeat of Sage. I'm not opposed to them put lower ranked guys high on a card because I understand they are building long term stars meant for watching em grow but obviously trynna cash out at the same time. Basically they are short cutting Nate Diaz / diago Sanchez type stars. It's gonna be a slow going fursure

    He has heard of a armbar triangle Was it a armbar or a triangle? Not the foggiest idea or why it matter Never understood the expression. Some times within a moral victory which is to extend the time of the match it's not to reverse and or change the outcome it's just to extend the inevitable people thought I would not be able to make it a minute I made it an entire round people didn't think I could make it a round I can make it all 5 rounds and send this to the judges. Its doesn't change the domination. Or the moral victory if you get subbed by in the closing minutes. Even if its the very same sub that tends get you

    Ten more fights is like saying 3-4 more years.That's too long.to enter the top ten. It's fine if you become the Champion at age 32 or even the top 5, but you would want to defend it for a few fights and it would take a few fights to get the title shot. I would say one year would be fast, but possible, if you entered the top ten and won three good fights. That would make you a Champ at age 32, and you could defend that twice a year for a bit. But there is also the possibility that you enter the top ten at age 31 and get in line waiting your turn for 4 years, and you are now 35 years old, expected to be on the decline already. Bo needs to be a little more assertive about his goals and willing to make himself vulnerable to chance and risk. The others are.

    Bo was the biggest favorite in UFC history for the second time in a row. So yes he's absolutely expected to maul them like Khamzat did to Li and Holland. Brundage isn't ranked and got a lucky win by DQ against malkoun. This should have been over in 30 seconds if Bo was as good as the hype

As a former wrestler with no where near as good of credentials as Bo I’m competing in jujitsu and have to pull back a ton with training due to my body already being broken down from wrestling so I imagine Bo probably isn’t able to go in every day and train balls to the wall. Let him take his time.

    mindset, his mindset is not ready for top 10 when he gets down on himself and makes that public display with his thumbs down in the cage after a great performance. It makes you wonder how he will react when he actually gets tested, will his mindset allow him to regroup and make the necessary changes, or will he thumbs down his motivation and get in trouble.

    Chael doesn't understand all these differences between rings and cages and sizes of cages etc because he is a elite wrestler. No matter who he fights he has the same game plan. Go forward push the pace and wrestle. Because of that all those differences don't matter to him. But to other fighters of different skill sets they do matter.

  • @gabethomas1946
    @gabethomas1946 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Bo's fight was boring and lasted as long as it did bcuz his opponent was not trying to win... Bo is good enough of a grappler to capitalize on openings and get to his submissions or ground and pound. Brundage however, was just trying to lock down the position while laying on his back. This isn't bjj where you can choose to concede the advantageous position for 15 minutes and still win a judges decision... If Cody was giving action and EVEN ATTEMPTING to be actively NOT LOSING, Bo would've been able to get him out of there much sooner. Which is exactly what happened when Cody Brundage rolled through trying to stand up and "win" (not lose) for the first time in the fight. Bo's fights are going to be fun and high paced when he goes up against some of these monsters in the division who arent just going to let another man put them on their back and hold them there

    He couldnt finish the sub, he didnt know how to choke Cody. He had no idea what to do once his opponent got to the ground, all he knows is take down and pin. He doesnt routinely practice BJJ nearly as much as American style wrestling. That does help in MMA, but that’s WHEN you learn to transition those maneuvers into a different sport. He’s skilled, but has no idea how to finish a fight. Just hopes and dreams that he can get a KO
