While Chael Sonnen does have good points, do not forget Cris Cyborg is a two time IBJJF world champion at Purple Belt, and a 2009 ADCC Submission Wrestling World Championship Bronze Medalist. Cyborg is no slouch and simply underestimated Yana's ground game and just wanted to knock her the fuck out. Cyborg is a savage, and I don't think she will get taken out on the ground very easily.
Hey man I’d love to hear you talk collegiate wrestling sometime. Not sure if you still follow the sport at all but topics like your favorite weight class and wrestlers and teams etc would be super cool
Looks like a man, sounds like a man, hits like a man…..That's a dude. That's why she looks so powerful. I'ts going to take another male Tranny / Transgender to beat Cyborg. In Brazil you can't trust those birth certificates. Stop me when i lie
Cyborg can kick your ass Chael. Lol
WHAT? What the hell kind of video is this? Don't TELL all the fighters how to beat cyborg, she needs to retire [almost] undefeated like mayweather :P. Hey, at least cyborg isn't doing a hip toss/arm bar EVERY fight [um hem, Ronda]. When Ronda finally lost, it was about time, good grappler, but her "holes" were… a GRANDMA could spot her weaknesses! Back to Cyborg, she adapts to everything, she may not be the best on the ground, but she might be the best women on the ground, she isn't stupid, who cares if cyborg got taken down right away, in the beginning of the 1st round? She probably did that to PREVENT her foot from being injured, if that happened in the beginning of the 1st, the fight would of pretty much been over and she might of lost, so for Cyborg to take the fall so quickly might of been the smartest move. In the 5th round for cyborg to lose to a choke or whatever, maybe, Cyborg is the LAST to panic in there, she KNOWS what she's doing and how to "pace" herself as well as to use that cage to her advantage, once round 3 hits she really starts unloading, Nunes, she's got power, but not the range, Megan, has the range, maybe SOME power, but not the speed, cyborg gets in close with those shots that fight is over, my favorite part of the fight was when Cyborg CAUGHT Yana's foot then smashed her in the face, it was such a fast and POWERFUL reversal, nice move, then again, she's the best! Holms strategy was "GRAB HER" aand wait for time to run out, get a shot or 2 in before the horn goes off, the day someone wins a belt like that…don't call yourself a champion ;/. Cyborgs timing is incredible, the second she see's that open head shot, and goes "old school" and starts smashing away, its over, but for her to notice that and take advantage of it so quickly, again, her timing is incredible.
chael still has a bone to pick with tito ortiz i see lol
Maybe a wrestler the size of megan anderson will have a chance against her in 15 years or so, but for now she has the advantage of having been thru ped induced male puberty and can outlift some if not a of guys in the men’s bantamweight division
Nunes will break her
didnt stipe take nganno down with a few single legs??
It doesn’t matter about her weaknesses when her strengths are more than all the womaen can deal with. Who is going to beat her?
