    i defiantly agree some fighters can, which is why i said ‘most’. Clearly the cream of the crop are able to do this which is they are on the top. I just dont think Akiyama is one of those guys.

    cheers, i appreciate the debate.

    How did you not see how Gustafson/Diabate? It was the first fight on the broadcast. The Patrick/Wilks fight wasn’t shown.

    @MarkWGTS

    well not just the cream of the crop, a lot of fighters can, for example koscheck who was really just a wrestler in the beginning, always turned the fights into wrestling matches

    I felt sorry for Hathaway for having such a dreadful corner, didn’t tell him to go for a take down until the 3rd round by which time he was pretty much done in the fight.
    They seemed more concerned with pep talks about his striking, which wasn’t as good as Pyles, was far to mechanical and slow.
    I really wanted to see some wrestling offence from a Brtitish fighter for once, hell he might have still lost but ffs try.

    Great recap.

    I thought it was a pretty decent card. The Bisping fight went how I thought it would. Condit’s KO over Hardy was impressive. I was disappointed with Hathaway, I like the kid but I wish he would’ve gone for more takedowns.

    @AVKILLA001

    I can understand the match-up, but I wouldn’t like it. Would much rather they each fight different guys.

    It’s time Bisping face a TOP10 guy again.

    About that McSweeney fight. He went from Hes heating up to Hes getting beat up! He dishes out the aggressiveness but can’t take it the same. Saw the other matches I wasn’t overly impressed ya but Condit is kinda beast like for sure. Great recap as always!
    Akiyama seems promising but that comes with borderline I don’t know what happened outcomes in these matchups.

    Ok but let’s face facts here bisping is ridiculously overrated in the uk and doesn’t deserve a title shot Dan hardy got sonned by gsp and he won’t get that opportunity again akiyama is used to fighting Japanese cans and the card overall was a fillin to advance standings and setup matchups for real and more exciting cards that well you know…might actually be worth some money
