:what: Hes quicker then rumble. Footwork, handspeed, movement. Rumble just has excellent counters and timing but hes not a particularly fast guy. He cannot box like Gus. Watch when he was moving forward and leading. Hes wild and sloppy. Thats why I said Jones shouldn't be aggressive and force Rumble to fight.


Gus is a more polished boxer, Rumble is a better MMA/kick boxing striker and is quicker with that. Rumble doesn't throw jobs on the outside and pitty pat. There styles are confusing you, the reason why Rumble was able to land all those power shots was because he's quicker. Go look at all the other fights, power punchs down the middle and hooks and no one was able to get out of the way, duck, block anything.

We've already covered how Rumble is tyson like with the lightening fast counters. But he is overall not faster then Gus. Not with lead striking,lateral movement, footwork, etc.What dont you understand about this?

I thought gus was looking faster in the beginning.

But it only takes one power shot to make a nikka rethink life. :sadcam:

which was made possible by his body ceasing due to a bad weight cut, a problem he is yet to face at LHW :mjpls:

please define ceasing in this context.
his body totally failed him ala carwin v lesnar. Granite provided a sound link which happened to touch on the amount of weight he cut in a limited space of time for the clementi fight (which he was subbed in if i'm not mistaken)

Everytimes hes lost its been to the same move. A rear naked choke.

Jiujitsu is clearly his weakness.

He only lost to a RNC because he was exhausted already. Dude cut 50lbs before.
