[@halvorsonmx]

How much does fear affect striking? Alex does not appear at all to be scared of getting hit and this makes me think it allows him to stay in the pocket when necessary or better set up counter strikes. Like how Conor will just stick his chin out there and let them get oh so close or even Aldo absolutely nailed him but he was content with that to land his more effective counter strike. I know when I box I hate getting hit so much I seem to dwell on it then get lit up lol

Forgot to mention leg kicks? There’s no telegraph due to his squared stance, and this was crucial in his dismantling of Izzy. I believe it will prove vital in his fight against Jiri as well if he can time Jiri’s stance changes with low kicks.

[@AirLancer]

I definitely think his loss to Izzy definitely made him more patient once he has his cornered opponent, example being his last fight with Jan, rather than immediately going for the kill which cost him.

Jan use technique with wrapping ankle and make it easier. Maybe good for UFC standard but for kickboxing standard or Muay Thai not impressive.

[@narellano4726]

Best way to defend a leg kick is to counter with a straight. Jiris got speed so let’s if he can do it

[@nicolasoliveira4903]

​@@narellano4726no he cant. First leg kick droped Jiri

[@definitelynosebreather]

You gave a lower note because he doesn't switches stances, while he destroyed Jiri legs **because** he was timing perfectly Jiri's stances switches. While he does have a minimalist arsenal, he keeps managing to land the leg kicks and left hook in every single fight. It's time to stop ranking strikers by variety of strikes, efficient use of strikes are way more important than diversifying for the sake of diversity.

Izzy sold Pereira the possum play, Poatan thought Izzy was hurt like in the first fight and felt comfortable with hands low. Only way Izzy was going to win that and he did it. However, you can't fool Pereira again like that.

Well he already won 3x against the dude... Obviously his brain probably was too comfortable but like you said... Alex is way more careful now. We saw that specially against Blachowicz he got him wobble a little bit in the end of round 2 and he didn't get crazy trying to finish

I think it would be interesting to add one category : shot selection ! The top strikers , simple or flashy have great shot selection . Might be covered within timing and distance management but i see it seperatly a bit🎉🎉

[@meatball6930]

He just seemed to go up a level in this one. I feel like he’s just settling in to UFC and what he’ll work on and focus on. People forget about that little kick he does. That thing is an axe chopping at your leg. Every person has stumbled when that thing connects and he does it right way to F with your brain. He uses that big bone on the side of foot to do it. He does t use top of foot much and doesn’t have to roll hip over to do the kick which doesn’t give it away that it’s coming. It’s so fast and painful-you can see everyone be surprised and nervous. He must have a serious rock hard callous built up on that and has mastered shooting it sideways so it digs in and he gets to keep his balance when he throws it that way. That thing is a major game changer for him. Seriously watch any fight in 1st round when he lets everyone know he has it and you can see their face change instantly and you almost can’t escape it because there’s no tel for it coming. Mike Tyson says -everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face. But everyone has a plan until they get an axe kick to the leg. Not sure the name of that kick but the back side of an axe or hatchet sounds about right with the way it looks when you see ppls faces. In my experience these guys built like him are very hard at close distance. He has very tight rigid muscle and ligaments tendons. He’s very tight and stiff so punching him is like hitting a wall and because it’s all stiff he can generate power up close. I disagree it’s all at the end of his shot. That does refer to Conor who was loose and needed you at the end of the shot but Alex is tight and those close shots are quick snappy power shots too. I’d bet that anyone his size would say his short close punches are stronger than anyone. I mean even that leg shot he does is short and tight and he does more damage with those over his long kicks. I really thought he’d start having trouble by this fight but i saw a guy that has changed some things up and is now more confident-he definitely figured out something in his game he was missing and this is a different Alex then even the last fight. Him staying in Connecticut with Glover is paying off.

[@michaeltrimble7680]

Coach was tellin me about my chin last night lol. Dude I can’t wait to see your next fight!

[@AppendixDaphnis]

I think u r missing the knee KO in the timing analysis. Also in the footwork, who has better footwork, the one that switch stances, move in and out and circles, or the one that with one single move put him in a position for KOing people?

[@definitelynosebreather]

I have some points about the way Wonderboy breaks this down in those factors too. At the most basic level, fighting is about imposing your own game while nullifying the opponents'. And just breaking it down in footwork / timing / variety / distance management doesn't give a fair assessment of how dangerous Pereira is. Charles Oliveira, for instance, has some visible holes in his game and does get hit a lot, but - apart from Islam - he was able to impose his chaotic style in every single opponent in the last few years, and has an insane win rate over top level fighters.

[@draco2xx]

jiri is so overrated, i can't believe people thinks he gotta chance. his stand is terrible

[@xristosrizos8406]

Wanna see Poatan's distance management and timing? Watch every time he stops moving backwards in order to leg kick Strickland at the exact moment Strickland's left leg is about to touch the octagon

[@mandjaco]

[@I_am_Saveen]

You are one of the best striker in UFC history nhga

[@brandonprice6448]

I think you should include power in your criteria. The fact that something like that goes unmeasured with a guy like Alex is crazy. Other than that I think the criteria is pretty thorough.

[@raptorclaw6994]

Power isn't a metric for skill so no point

[@brandonprice6448]

@@raptorclaw6994 Really? That’s an interesting and very shallow attempt at invalidating my argument. Is there no skill in powerlifting? Is there no skill in explosive motion like high jump, sprinting etc? Skill can aid in a strike being delivered with more power. Yes some people are naturally gifted and have more power than others, but to pretend there is no skill in an explosive/athletic movement is crazy.

I was lucky enough to train with Poatan in Argentina, and I have a very close friend who helped him in his preparation for UFC 295. His advantage is power, his entire fighting system, let's say, works because of his powerful punch. The constant pressure he has on the enemy is terrible, and it's simple... he works on simple things and with power he sets the trap for you. It is not the best footwork but with the combination of timing in your hands it is brutal.... It's unique

[@SPACEGAME-tf7dr]

It’s part of his stance, when he throws he rarely leans into a strike which is why he usually is so accurate opponents can’t really get a read off his hip motion before the strikes come out and also I think that’s why his punches and kicks are so stiff but clean
