Generated a lot of power from that position. Its not easy
The weirdest, must awkward KO I’ve ever seen. The long pause between the first 2 punches were crazy. When Kev was like “I think I seen this in a dream ” Souza stupid ass seem like he was legit interested in knowing what it was about and got rocked.

Jacare definitely let himself get too casual buying into the friendly competition, talking shyt while we fight thing. Left him open for being at the effect rather than the cause even though he had dominant position.

Size and strength matters. If strikes were allowed that bjj black belt would have been seriously hurt. Bas rutten of course would take the w as well as more experienced ones but this ain't magic. Then again haftor is an anomaly and a genetic freak

Tony's almost 40, they aged him out

I agree he's slowed down, but looking at his performances in retrospect I'd lean Khabib heavily 2017-present and still have it as a tossup before that.

Had Tony looked good against Oliveira I'd still have no confident idea since his fight w/ Gaethje wasn't much of a grappling battle.
