Shogun in his prime had an iron chin. Jiri not so much.
Shogun & Liddell both KO Jiri in their primes
I gotta agree here. Jiri is tough and a great character but heās far too wild and raw at this point to be in the discussion with legends like Shogun
I donāt like doing this but we gotta mention prime shogun was in prime steroid days of MMA also
Glover nearly TKOād Jiri. Chuck and shogun in their primes would both have their way with Jiri on the feet
LHW has regressed so much that even HW looks better right now
Prime Shogun, and I like Jiri.
Just like all of his opponents at that time. Not sure what the point is of that comment.
Itās just a note when comparing a modern Usada fighter to a pre-usada fighter in their pre-usada prime. In a lot of cases it is not a like for like comparison
Everyoneās on steroids
Maybe. But there is a big difference to then and now
Shogun all Day!
Prime Shogun was legendary
Prime Shogun with soccer kicks and stomps and Jiri doesnāt even take the fight. The UFC ruleset neutered Shogunās strengths.
Was that prime Shogun?
Lol at a 42 year old ANYBODY being the best version of themselves. Drop the delusions, itās because the division fucking SUCKS
GLOVER almost tore Janās head off and beat the absolute shit out of Jiri. Iād say heās relevant. That being said. I think prime Shogun destroys Jiri. No question.
Glover certainly didnāt look his age in there the last few times, he looked sharp and focused. Iāve also met Shogun and he was much smaller than I expected. I think it would be a competitive fight, Jiri has some intangibles
