UFC 121 Lesnar vs Velasquez was pretty good. Not to many finishes but never-the-less
the skills on display were pretty impressive.
Starting with the main event WOW. I just wished that it went another round, that
fight was exciting. Brock came out displaying his new gains in his mma striking and
Cain is the man. Cain being out weighed by 20 plus pounds was able to get back up
off takedown with Brock laying on him. And after showing off his wrestling skills
and his conditioning, ended the fight with his sniper like striking.
In the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu department there were a couple of fights
the were impressive. On the Sanchez vs Thiago fight BJJ was on full
display. Thiago attepmted his patented guillotine/brabo choke but no
avail. Thiago’s was lurking around every scramble but Diego’s ground
countrol and submission defense allowed him to dominate the fight.
Then in one of the prelimenary’s Daniel Roberts pulled of a sick head
arm choke of a take down defense. In our MMA class at Top Flight we will definitely
be going over this set up for anaconda choke and another choke you will have to see,
We will it put on here this week definitely have to check back in, its SICK!
Finally in the striking department, there was some good striking and some
very big missed opportunities for some crazy KO’s using Muay Thai kick boxing and regular boxing.
Now the striking in the main events was good. I like the improvement in the former champs
aresnal I didnt think he had the much striking ability and for the new champ
his technical superiority in boxing and muay thai has been evident in last couple
mma fights.
A fight that caught our attention was the Jake shields and Martin kammpmann fight.
Both fighters have great BJJ skills, the edge definitely goes to Jake but Martin
is no scrub. But man! Martin striking was head and shoulders above Jake’s, so why
didn’t he keep the fight standing. Two things we will be going over in our MMA
class this week is 1) how to stop the takedown and fire back with KO combinations and
keep the fight standing. 2) Something Martin did use with success but didn’t do step 1
to capitalize that is the KNEE to stop a takedown. I guarantee the threat of a well
placed knee will cause a mma fighter to think twice about shooting in.
But overall the UFC 121 was very entertaining and for all those fight fans
it gave them a bunch of techniques to practice at their gyms.
