Other fighters in the ufc have said its like a contract but not a actual contract when both fighters say "no I'm not going for a take down I'm going out there to stand up and get a knockout". But Garry knows in his head he resorted to last resort because he could not stand with MVP.

I work hard...I am following my dreams and in order to fulfill that destiny, I need fuel, and food is that nourishment for me, so when I say I am hungry, it is me saying that I want to win, that I will win, that I am unstoppable. People just don't understand that about hunger... they think food is just something you eat... *smirks knowingly*"

normally things like this where you have to describe all the particulars before you even answer a simple question stems from relationship issues stems from you having to go back and forth and back and forth with your partner for self validation reasons or comes from arguments where you have to backtrack and go over and over stuff before you can move on you can imagine hes managing his day ok, he goes on the socials.. he reads loads of hate that comes his direction and then he goes finds his wife, repeats the same points about why he did things and why he doesnt deserve the hate then she eventually tells him what he wants to hear (that it wasnt his fault or that he easily won the fight etc) then he leaves the room delusional enough to get along with his day again until he opens the socials again

His striking whilst aggressive is defensively lacking and Garry is definitely a more polished striker.

Welp, he didn’t win the fight. Ian did, soooooooo….

[@7heplague236]

Pride of Ireland? I dunno I heard a lot of them disowned him -- I know the 12.5% Irish in me has. And that fight was an MVP win, at worst a draw. MVP did more effective damage.

[@goncalocruz3336]

If you think about it, we should have expected this kind of aproach. MVP is clearly faster on the feet, and Ian was freezing a bit on the feet aswell, but his jiu jitsu impressed me honestly. Showed that he is clearly a more complete fighter than MVP, who is 10 years older than him btw, and almost finished him. If Ian can have one more win, maybe agaisnt shavkat, who is champion material, a fight between him and Leon would be crazy.

[@Mr-E.]

For me I was shocked at how poor his BJJ was against MVP. I say this because MVP clearly has zero ground game knowledge or skills. He was making every mistake in the book and seemed like a complete amateur, and yet Garry couldn't capitalize on it. It seemed like Garry just didn't know what to do at all, and had low IQ for the ground game. He resorted to holding control positions without knowing what to do next, like when he just clung onto MVP's back like a koala for a long time (LOL!). For someone who lived in Brazil, trains with the best BJJ guys, speaks fluent Portuguese, etc... I expected a lot more from his ground skills.

[@goncalocruz3336]

@@Mr-E. I dont think MVP has zero ground game knowledge. At least not on the defensive end. The guy has like 25 MMA fights, and even though he is new in the UFC, he defenitely has to have at least decent takedown defense to only have lost 2 times (now 3 against Ian) in leagues like bellator and such. And to see Ian, who is a pure striker, take down a guy like that and atempt multiple submissions and almost finishing him in the first round impressed me a lot. He is not living in Brazil for that long, and learning these skills and using them on a very experienced guy like MVP for sure make him seem like a very complete fighter, specially since he is a great striker.

[@goncalocruz3336]

@@oldformatguru its not that crazy. Shavkat and Ian both fought geoff neal. Shavkat finished him, but neal was hiting him hard. Garry beat him by decision but almost didnt get touched. It would be an interesting fight

[@dougnorton5204]

What planet is Garry on? He caught MVP’s leg in the first round, fumbled into some sort of bodged takedown, stuck a body triangle on for about three minutes and achieved absolutely nothing against an opponent who clearly didn’t seem to know how to get out of it. I honestly think he didn’t know how to switch positions and so just held the body triangle on. The idea that he thinks he could Shavkat is unbelievable but I would 100% pay to watch it!

You know those comedy videos of "how you expect people to react when you tell them that you drink black coffee". That's basically Ian's whole personality. He basically wants us to say "wow he livid with his performance because he wanted to finish. What a badass" but in reality nobody is buying that

The fact that he's sitting there describing how he wasn't able to get the choke tells you that he's not completely delusional and knows his technique needs to get better.

Garry should give 10k to the dude who didn’t give information to MVP.. assuming the story is even true.

[@user-oq5pq6xe2h]

The fact that he doesn't understand what a tool he sounds like when he says something like "Damian Maia told me I had huge balls for pulling guard" explains why he's so out of touch with so many people.

Ian was gonna win that fight FOR SURE. MVP was a +160 underdog. You guys that only see what your biast allows you to see arnt good for combat sports. Ian is unpopular with the fsn base. So nanturally they arent gonns want to see him win. Almlst EXACTLY like watching Alex get rode around a ring and controled for 4 rounds and lose a unanimous decision in his own country, so that everyone could run around and pretend he won that fight somehow? Gas his little head up until he takes an early fight agaisnt the mkst dangeroud man in the sport? Gets his lights pit out for good? So disrespectful to one of the great champions of sll time. When the dude lost fair and square. Now he is on the outside looking in, you all act like you've learned nothing. Shameful.

Ian said he was going to show MVP that hes faster and a better striker. Boy that aged like milk. Ian is the opposite of conor. Ian talks a lot of game and doesnt perform. The reason people liked Conor cause he called what he was going to do. Conor was Mystic Mac.
