This fight will be decided in the clinch. If Charles can put out offense and threaten with the clinch, he will win, imo.
It sounds obvious, but going into the Kevin Lee fight, I thought Charles was going to get physically ragdolled, but that turned out not to be the case.
You’ve been making quite a lot of naive posts lately.
It’s not exactly who you beat that matters, but rather when you beat them.
Bobby isn’t even Islam’s best win, but regardless Bobby beating an Al who promptly retired isn’t anywhere close to the same as beating Al from 5 years ago. They simply aren’t even close to the same fighter.
As of this moment, Hooker has lost 4 of his last 5 fights. When Islam beat him, he had already lost 2 of his last 3 fights at that time. Hooker clearly isn’t the same fighter who has the wins you listed, and that absolutely matters.
Islam’s best win is arguably over Arman Tsarukyan whom I don’t even think was ranked at that time. He is currently #10 in LW, and that came after a run of wins post-Islam loss.
In a division as stacked as LW, Islam having a top 10 rank and fighting for the belt without even having a single win over a LW who was ranked at the time of the win should raise questions. It is absolutely fair to say he hasn’t really fought anyone, and it is unusual, for sure.
I know you are just an attention-seeking troll, but if you actually think I’m saying he can’t or won’t beat Charles, you should probably work on your reading comprehension skills. I’ve made no such claims in my argument, and that’s not even on topic.
Bobby Green beat Josh Thompson who beat Nate Diaz who beat Conor McGregor who beat Eddie Alvarez who beat RDA who beat Benson Henderson who beat Frankie Edgar who beat BJ Penn who beat Matt Hughes…who beat GSP…
Can’t wait for Islam to get submitted and you have to have your screen name changed to my choosing. Please be sure to remind everyone and bump that thread too Jack, oh wait you will fucking disappear from this forum or get on one of your alternative accounts. Your about to be a Charles fan for life with this name I got picked out for you.
