 Fitch vs Maynard
Ok.. so now that we see wrestling is becoming the key to victory in a lot of cases but how people utilize it makes it boring or exciting.. we have the 2 top contenders in WW and LW considered to be really boring fighters who just Lay N' Pray.. they both almost work in the exact same way except Maynards stand up is significantly better.. God forbid they put both LW and WW belts on the same night... which fighter do you like to see the least?
on a side not since i am a wrestler and i cant really stand just negative attention on the sport since there are fighters who use(d) wrestling really well to make fights more exciting ex) Chuck, Randy, Hendo just to name a few
but i hope this does not become a trend.. i guess well have to rely on our champions to not let these 1 dimensional fighters take the belt.. GSP does have mad wrestling skills but he also uses them to pass and uses his BJJ to try and submit ppl.. combined with good standup (that we havent seen in forever) wrestling is something that should be combined with things if you want to be entertaining for the fans and not just go out there to win.. which i guess there is nothing wrong with that if that is the fighters goal... but to be great you have to use the wrestling to make your ground game exciting not boring...
