There are only 4 fighters who "built" the UFC.
Anderson Silva.
GSP.
Jon Jones.
Conor McGregor.
These are 4 main characters.
Everyone else is a sidekick in their story.
Batting average can lie. Just look at Luis Arraez.
Yes, he can hit .300 and win batting titles. But his on-base percentage should be much higher than it is and there’s a reason why.
He chases.
Arraez refuses to walk. He swings at pitches out of the zone, even in key moments when his team desperately needs base runners. In this video I’m showing two back-to-back pitches where he swings at ball four. That cannot happen from a guy whose value is supposed to be getting on base.
This is what I call a soft .300.
The batting average looks great, but the impact is limited. He doesn’t drive the ball with authority. Low exit velocity. A lot of soft contact. And because he won’t take walks, he leaves OBP on the table.
Imagine if he added discipline. If he simply took what pitchers give him, his OBP jumps and now you’re talking about a completely different level of player.
Instead, you get a hitter who racks up singles in hot streaks but doesn’t maximize his value.
High average. Low leverage.
That’s the difference.
No more dribbling the clock out if the team up 20!! Go get that lay up. 🖕🏾that unwritten rule. No one should swell their chest up and get all red in the face either! Go Get your stats! That era of basketball is OVER!!

In 2017, Kobe Bryant, who had just retired, was asked during Trump’s first term if he would have visited the White House had the Lakers won the title.
Kobe said he wouldn’t have made the trip.
“Simple,” Mamba said.
