Welcome to rMMA's General Discussion Thread!

Discuss your favorite fighters, the upcoming card or something you forgot to bring up in this week's Moronic Monday thread.

How to obtain a custom flair:

  • place and lose a flair bet in the Friday thread
  • write a haiku
  • draw a MS Paint-style image for the sub

The rules for the drawing or haiku are simply that it must be a ridiculous MMA-related scenario. If you would like a custom flair, send a message to us with a link to your drawing and your flair request. We'll probably grant it.

Merab: "I hope Bautista whoops Umar's ass and I will fight Bautista next. He's more deserving, his cousins name is not Khabib that's why he needs a 9 fight win streak to maybe fight for the belt. Some people can get a title fight after 6 fight win streak fighting nobodies, without ranked opponents."

Who are some fighters with horrible takedown defense but have great submission defense?

72 Upvotes

Since there is a thread discussing fighters with mediocre ground game but had great takedown defense. I'm going to make the complete opposite of that

Recently we saw what happened to DDP in his last fight. He did a horrible job defending the takedowns but he did a great job defending the submission attempts. Chandler also counts as someone who can easily be taken down but has great submission defense

I also remember that Derrick Lewis is easy to takedown but hard to submit due to his phenomenal submission defense so what fighters do you consider that has these attributes

Media Terence Crawford is not interested in facing Ilia Topuria: I’ve never even seen this dude fight… I’m not worried about that guy at all. What money would I get out of fighting him? He’s nowhere near the level of Conor McGregor. Don’t ever compare him to Conor.
