Why doesn’t he utilise his BJJ more. Not good for longevity

[@manlad23]

@@joshywhvick bjj only works if you can successfully take someone down. Max has amazing take down defense and Volk has a good wrestling background. Brian needed to learn some effective wrestling take downs or judo throws to make his bjj more effective but he never did that.

17:25 is one of the most iconic and hilarious Holloway moments ever... he stops Ortega mid fight from fighting to give him tips on how to block... it takes Ortega a few sec to realize what's going on and then snap out of it. this and "I'm the best boxer in the UFC!!!" are two of the mind blowing moments ever to happen in the octagon... except for Diaz laying down mid fight vs Anderson Silva.

[@jordanlimantara1814]

still time to add to those mindblowing moments I recoken😂
