One thing about Alex is that when he’s in the octagon and even before he gets in the octagon he is just laser focused. You can see he has one thing and one thing only on his mind and that’s to annihilate his opponent. He’s got that predator mentality and instincts. He’s like a jaguar in the Amazon stalking his prey. It’s just on a different level than anyone else. Add that with his freakish physique and ability then you have an absolute monster to deal with.

I think people are so lost on his “aura”, his “unemotional face”, his “composure”, that we end up forgetting his mastery of the fighting game.

[@BMC11879]

Where should you start? His entire aura says “I’ll kill you if they’ll let me“. And that was before he just shattered. Francis Ngannou‘s record for the hardest puncher on the planet. I’m rooting for Alex to be the first triple champ and I think that he can do it.

[@filipegr9406]

Poatan's daily dedication to grappling training is not considered by the sports media, or is generally underrated, especially by the hatters. I believe that if he manages one or two more belt defenses by demonstrating his ground and pound skills, he'll be thrown into the heavyweight category and be directly in line for a title shot.

[@ma-bx1oy]

not really hating. just telling you what you don't want to hear but what you need to hear. Some of these guys have been grappling their whole lives like Jone Jone and Aspinal. that will be a big problem for someone like Poatan who barely started grappling about 2 years ago. Dude came into the Ufc without even a blue belt in bjj.

[@filipegr9406]

@@ma-bx1oy Well, he's not a young man discovering the world now. I believe that his trajectories in kickboxing and mma say something about his maturity, ability to adapt and quick learning... It's a bit naive to think that the guy isn't brutally dedicating himself to making up for his own deficiencies. The respect and commitment of a professional of Glover Teixeira's stature in training him is also no small thing in this process. And even if he never becomes an excellent wrestler, on the other hand he's not an average striker who lets his opponents off the hook, right? I think that's what the hatters aren't quite willing to see.

How is it possible that all these experts seem to be missing the obvious. Alex is a very good striker but there are better strikers out there. Izzy being one. N fact, if we take away Alex’s power then he loses all five fights to Izzy. I believe even the one he won on points Izzy won. So on that basis Alex is more power than skill, even though he has very high skill level. So at heavyweight he will get knocked out but I’m sure the heavyweights will not take that chance because it gives Alex a chance. If you are a heavyweight use your weight and take him down and keep him there. So I understand all this praise Utd the guy is very beatable and on the ground he has little to no chance against Jones or Stipe and both have very high IQ.
