This was weird, I mean Rodriguez struggled against guys like George and that Argentinian from his last fight and now he demolishes Grachev.

Wasn't a very impressive win but Khabib showed he can make the adjustments needed.

what the f#ck just happened? rofl
as i explained earlier, rodriguez started his career as an aggressor. he had whipping power, and threw a great uppercut to the body and overhand right in close. he got hit a lot because he got very close and has long arms.
lately they've tried to keep him at a distance, but he wasn't as effective with his power. that obviously wasn't how things went tonight, where he went in close to work the body and land the left hook and overhand right to the head

Originally posted by WarMaidana View Postthose were some sloppy overhands that were all rabbit punches
grachev was ducking into them, which is the wrong way to get out of the way of the right hand. rodriguez telegraphs his right hand. he always has, ever since i first saw him when he had five fights.
grachev was timing it and ducking. the punches weren't aimed for the back of his head, though thye were looping. if grachev didn't duck they would have landed on his face.
