Askren shut out tonight against Jordan Burroughs

Underground
21

Dam, now that's a blast double. Was Ben smiling when he got dumped? Double leg ippon.

Technical question: is that style that Burroughs does with the head ramming thru the solarplex area pretty widespread or is that a Burroughs thing? Would that work well for MMA to defend against guillotines when you shoot with head to the side?

Id like to check Burroughs picos

Fedor also lost a sambo match shortly before he started losing regularly, you sensitive faggots.

Burroughs is the best at that exact double, and yes it would be very hard to guillotine him off that blast double

Cre crying in a corner somewhere?

 Awesome, both great ambassadors.

Fuck going easy! Burroughs did what he was supposed to do, and that's dominate. Fuck throwing a match or taking it easy. Competition is about putting your best out there, and Askren just found out he can't fuck with Burroughs on ANY LEVEL. Domination. Askren got slammed on his head by Robbie Lawler ffs. Dad bod shows Askren's lack of dedication to his craft. You start half assing against the best, and the results won't be in your favor.. Askren got exposed.. AGAIN.

in wrestling there is no taking it easy or carrying an opponent.What was the score

I’ve always been taught it as a “Japanese Double” but it might vary depending on who you ask.

Would khabib also get owned?

Positively

You idiots are shitting on Ben for taking a charity match against one of the best wrestlers ever in a style that he doesn't practice much at his academy...  

Grow up.

It’s definitely an ‘alternative’ style of double legging. Not the norm and would surely be helpful for submission defense. It existed long before Burroughs, but Burroughs is the undisputed master of it. If Burroughs innovated, it’s in his reliance on it and his willingness to go there from his knees.

It’s among the most timing dependent moves in wrestling.

boxingman - was anyone stupid enough to think he had a shot

i guess the same types that though connor is some wilder like

puncher

I don't think anyone, including himself, thought he had a shot.

He did it because he loves the sport of wrestling and wanted to do something to help hype up a great event.

I agree that's why he did it. However, plenty of people thought he had a shot. Mostly because they're stupid. He got manhandled.

Haha, fair enough. I should have said

 "I don't think anyone who knows anything at all about wrestling..."

Yup…MMA fans always seem to think MMA guys can do better in other sports. Everyone in the wrestling community knew this was gonna be a blowout. Same thing happened with Conor vs Mayweather…there wasn’t a single person in the boxing community saying he had a real chance…even Paulie Malignaggi said he had decent power, but it didn’t really compare to the big hitters in boxing. None of the MMA fans believed him, then we saw what happened.

Now MMA fans are saying the same thing about Lobov vs. Malignaggi. To be fair, lots of boxing fans seemed to think James Toney had a shot against Randy Couture, so it seems like everyone backs whatever athletes are from their sport. If Mayweather came to the UFC, I’m sure there’d be boxing fans saying he can beat Conor in MMA.

Made Askren look like an amateur.

How do you not fuck your neck up doing it this way or is there a danger of that? Because it seems like you’re literally spearing your head into your opponent with no helmet on.
