I've noticed since the Cote fight Anderson's been waving his hands out there almost wing chung style and I'm wondering what the purpose of this technique is exactly and how it aids his standup (if it does). Anyone of a standup background care to explain? It's very intriguing.
As we saw in dirty dancing with Patrick swayze's sweet spin kicks, dancing is very much a martial art. Anderson is ahead of the bell curve regarding innovative techniques so it's no surprise he's been improving his dance game in recent fights.
spirit fingers imo
everybody wang chung tonight
Stand and wang chung.

I could be wrong but it seemed to confuse/discourage Vitor.
EVERYBODY WANG CHUNG!
I still can't believe the talent pool was so shallow that Leites got a title shot.
Dark Ryase - I still can't believe the talent pool was so shallow that Leites got a title shot.
He was 14-1, 5-1 in the UFC, with a "win" over top contender Marquardt.
Shogun was showing some proper jazz hands in the 2nd forrest fight.
Yeah, he's not the only one to nearly make it to the top, fail, then slide dramatically. Thought Cote was a weaker one though to be honest. He squeaked a really close one against Almeida and suddenly he was in a title fight.
That gif is amazing.

It wasn't shallow, it was just that Anderson already beat everyone else in the division
