His standup is overrated because its is overrated. He's a great striker but he isn't some dominator in MMA. He had success in K-1, and his chin has always been suspect. This isn't K-1. In K-1 he walks in with a shell and counters. You can't do that in MMA. Who has he dominated standing in MMA? Brock?
They make it out to seem like he's the Floyd of MMA striking. He shoulda won that fight on speed alone but he isn't some aggressive killer striker, that isn't what he does.

By the standards of fighters who belong on a PPV? Yeah I stand by the statement, suck my dick.
It will probably be JDS vs Overeem next. He will definitely not come out fighting like an idiot then. Wait until then to decide how good his striking really is.

I dont care what the result of this fight is. Rashad is clearly the loser as he was expected to tool Little Nog and he really did just enough to look busy...
Edit: Oh wow, another upset, a terribly boring upset, but an upset. Grats Rashad, you're not fighting Anderson or Jones ever again.

I can decide now because its obvious. Todd Duffee, Brett Rogers, Brock Lesnar, looked terrible against Werdum, and he just got knocked out by someone only known for being huge. What's the big deal?
This isn't K-1.
Shut up, Arkk.
As for Rashad. It's always great to see him lose. He has been boring as hell since he lost against Machida and it looks like he's not trying to change that after his loss to Jones. So, him going further and further away from a titleshot is the best thing, that I can take away from that fight.

Can you please explain why this bothers you so much? It really isn't that hard to see, this isn't new.

Worst fight I've seen since Rashad fought last. That was just terrible. And I don't agree with Rogan/Goldie, the decision wasn't close imo. Rashad should've really pushed the takedowns but spent most of the time playing patty-cake. And little nog didn't even look that good.
That's two HUGE upsets in a row, this next fight should be good.

JDS' striking is overrated too. But I still REALLY want to see Overeem vs JDS. Shit I want to see that more than I wanted to see Overeem vs Cain.
It is. He can take a punch though. Neither one of them are hyper aggressive and it won't be a very exciting fight. JDS probably wins.
