^^^ out grappling him in mma (First line)
Bojack Horseman - Maybe he gets caught at some point but nobody is out grappling him in bjj.
Weakest part of his game is takedowns and takedown defense but he's working on that
+ it really doesn't matter if you are one of the best bjj guys on the planet.
2 years from now people will either consider him the goat
Or he'll be like askren
One of the best fighting guys who aren't.
Nah weakest part of his game is striking.
I don't know what people in this thread are talking about.
I don't care if he stays in Japan or comes to the UFC, I just enjoy watching him fight.
gokudamus - How striking actually looked decent. Pretty good head movement and reflexes and his punches had som zip on them.
Agree. When you train with the Diaz bros often you can learn a few things about striking. Would have been funny if he started stockton slapping and doing other antics.

19-1 Koreshkov is one of the best. Same with Douglas Lima.

TakinAllFades -How dare you sir.Not too many mma fighters know how to implement their bjj. Kron is similar to maia, they both use their jiujitsu flawlessly. There's been plenty of bjj world champs come into mma and get destroyed and the typical mma fighter has a shitty guard. Kron and maia sweep, pass the guard, go straight to the back and choke. And they make it look easy.
id imagine we will see Kron in the ufc eventually. Because he's Kron gracie. Unless his dad wants to shield him from real competition so he can be an undefeated fighter in Japan his whole career.
Ice Cream Kron!
Hope he carries on Dad's legacy, looks like he might.
Thanks for sharing.

Not sure your point or what you're getting at I'm just making points about Kron.
But yeah those guys are amazing.
Who's going to touch him in Asia.
Well Japan really.
Hotlanta - Ice Cream Kron!

Oh In bellator? In 2012 and 2013
I'm talking about one fc Ben askren obviously.
Ok I get it but yeah. But He's not in bellator anymore.
4 later
He beat a 39 year old journeyman. Who hasn't beat an opponent with a winning record in how long?
At this rate he'll retire before we see him fight a top fighter.
Honesty - He beat a 39 year old journeyman. Who hasn't beat an opponent with a winning record in how long?It was his third fight....
At this rate he'll retire before we see him fight a top fighter.

C'mon man did you see the guy he fought last time out??
This was a much larger step than I thought they would take this quickly.
100% he will stay in japan because the ufc rules and rounds favor athleticism over technique. Rizin rules are more reflective of a real fight.

Well Japan really.
Good win for Kron but Tokoro kept true to his style and fought recklessly. He had moments where he could have stood up but decided to dive back in to Kron's guard and tried some soccer kicks etc.
Kron used his striking very "Gracie-esque" he striked just to corner his opponent, get the clinch and takedown. Nice, simple and effective. Good job. He still needs a lot work on his wrestling and we saw his back control escaped a few times.
agreed ^ tokoro going for the footlock was a terrible idea

Yeah a post or two after you quoted I figured out what he was getting at.
Obviously I'm talking about one fc askren.
