I really enjoy this, I've wanted for fighters with very solid boxing skills to start making their way into MMA or improving their game to get to that level and Lil Nog looks to be one of them

the way he parries jabs then lands the left hook is impressive

I'm not sure about that, I know he trains with them though here are some accomplishments he has
Nogueira has long competed as an amateur boxer at a very high level. In 2006 he took the Gold Medal in the Super Heavyweight division at the South American Games and in 2007 he took home the Bronze in the 2007 Pan American Games.

I guess I was looking at it as a boxer/kickboxer making a cross over to MMA than someone training MMA and just learning what they need to develop their striking. I mean in boxing you've drilled that stance in your head and in MMA you're just leaving yourself wide open for leg kicks and a wrestler grabbing your lead leg for a takedown. Where as Muay Thai tends to have a more square stance.

11-26-2009, 02:04 PM
shoguns never been knocked out, hes gonna kick machida's legs all night, shoguns "sloppy" striking is bad for a fight against a guy who runs away and then leaps in with straight punches but shogun still has the advantage of closing the distance and taking him down, hes done it to every other fighter hes ever fought so why any difference now? I dont see any. Plus, Shogun is just as fast if not faster than machida, the only point you have is that machida throws straight punches and shogun can get a bit sloppy at times. But you fail to mention shoguns never been knocked out and hes only been dropped once, by lil nog who basically has the skills of a professional boxer.

I missed that, lol. Lil Nog has to be one of the most overrated fighters in history. Besides beating Hendo and outlasting an Overeem that gasses in a minute, he has nothing. Jardine may have a better resume.

as for lil nog i read somewhere that he represents brazil in the olympics for boxing or some shit, and his stand up is extremely technical, comparing him to jardine is just not a comparison at all.

I heard that he sucks dick in the back alleys of Brazil. Doesn't mean he's gonna try and pants a dude and knob him in the cage.

Stick to being a retarded troll. Obviously thinking objectively isn't your strong suit.

To be a complete fighter, you need at least a little of each four. Unless the fighter is head and shoulders better than the competition in one area, then they might be able to get away with it and that's only for so long. But with the way MMA is progressing soon it's going to be that all four are needed.

thats not what we're talking about. you guys are fucked. i can see why noone wants to talk to you or solid about this shit. you dont read anything anyone else says, make half assed tangent points based off correlation and not causality. shits frustrating.

You said that you needed to be proficient in 4 areas, you don't.

Don't get your panties twisted, you're not making sense. I agree that 90% of the time a great wrestler will get the better of a great JJ guy.

Saying things like Grove isn't a jiu jitsu fighter is ridiculous. 2/3's of his wins and a hard mat battle with one of the best in the world means that his jits is ok.

amir is not expert bjj. we need to get some kind of criteria going here.

how about

bjj: must have won or gotten a medal at a half decent grappling event.

wreslting: division 1 minimum

sound good?

you need to be profiecent in all four unless you are amazing at at least 1, how about that?
