@qpe He’s actually a really hard matchup for topuria. A lengthy southpaw with good footwork and a great left body kick. Iwould still pick ilia just because I think ilia has the iq to have a gameplan for that style plus i think Parnasse is too chinny and has struggled vs super pressure
@DoubleThreat007@TruthfulUfcFan They can both pressure effectively and I would argue the knees and length of prates would be even more effective against that style
@TruthfulUfcFan Which you couldnt do vs prates. Because MVP is limited to in and out movement due to his stance he gets herded with kicks and destroyed with knees and elbows as clinch entries like rusiboev got occasionally. And MVP’s right hand would leave him open vs a lanky striker like prates
@TruthfulUfcFan You’re retarded mate. MVP isn’t a high level striker he just has a style which works well against shitty strikers. Watch Raymond Daniel’s get destroyed by nieky holkzen. Prates would back him up and use his calf kick. We saw MVP land in positions against a tall guy like rusiboev
@leftlanemma If fighters realized they can back him up without threat and put his back against the cage were he’s helpless because of his blades stance they would win and how come these retards cant even think to try time a leg kick
@leftlanemma He’s not high level it just works against shit strikers. Watch a far better and more effective karate point fighter Raymond Daniels get his soul taken by Nieky holkzen. MVP cant counter on the back foot, and cant throw in combiantion
@Pep_Lima We all know mason jones vs Chris Duncan would be goat fight contender but it couldnt be a main event. This fight is good but without a belt this could barely headline a Apex card
