[@Humanbodymentorshipacademy]

@@deadingu they’re not overrated, The freeness to strike in mma comes from your confidence in defending takedowns. Because it takes years of practice to get really good, it takes a while for these kickboxers to get good enough to where they can let go with their punches and kicks

Santos vs Hill could go either way. Santos likes to play shit safe, Hill gonna walk him down and box it out. Based on his last fight he has better boxing defense and can evolve quickly to fighters. I suggest he chops at Santos leg since Santos wanna play shit safe and not hit at all unless it's a KO attempt.
