Very similar to Mendez's loss to Mcgregor. The way Volk and Conor got back to their feet at the end of the second and started T'ing off on a gassed out Mendez who spent the last of,,,, his energy trying to keep the fight on the mat. Even similar body language when chad went down.

One of Volk's great attributes that make him a great fighter is the way he can stay focus for the entirety of the round. Mendes in the beginning of 1st round was walking down Volk, but by the end Volk was backing him up. You see Mendes mentally getting tired in the end of the 1st rd. Cudos to Cruz catching it and mentioning it the beginning of 2nd rd. I dunno, but I notice similar focus with guys that trains in Tiger Muy Thai. Yan, Fiziev, Schevchenko, Adesanya. With Adesanya is just a little diff. He would understand when to relax and use to control the fight. Maybe, the mentality of how they train there. Nice Nice

I agree with everything you said plus Mendez was just burning himself out trying to shoot on a dude who can wiggle out of it in seconds and get right back on his feet.
@chefxhyrule242 Жыл бұрын
Maybe it’s the Muay Thai influence. Thai fighters are very calm and focused cus of the rule set. Kicks in the arm are still scored and getting a kick checked sucks. Getting elbowed and swept from being overly agressive sucks aswell. So they typically have a slow patient approach if you’ve noticed. This doesn’t do well sometimes in other combat sports cuz they can be blitzed and ko’d with boxing but if you can adjust that calm patient shot selection to other sports it works well.

@DrayDrayn Жыл бұрын
Gased out mostly, no leg lock and in centre cage. Back control isn't easy when you're exhausted and the other guy is continuously twisting. Not only was Volk twisting but also working the grip. Once he broke the grip Chad had to get out of there. Mendes would have been better doing that on the cage side rather than in the middle.

Mendes perdeu pro mal condicionamento físico. Ele é um excelente lutador, porém em lutas importantes fica no meio do caminho por azar ou má preparação. Nessa luta é nítido que estava melhor, em três momentos teve a chance de subjugar Volkanovski após aplicar as quedas, mas deixou o Australiano levantar. Cara no primeiro nockdown ele parou de desferir golpes enquanto Volkanovski ainda estava atordoado, acho que ele mesmo percebeu que as potências dos golpes foram reduzindo e decidiu se poupar, até ai tudo bem, até porque o atarracado lutador é como um mine tanque de guerra, agora, após as belíssimas quedas ele deveria apostar mais no jogo de chão, no grand power e na submissão.
