Joe Rogan does the UFC no favours when he says people like JDS have 'incredible boxing.' If blocking punches with your face, having no head movement, stamina, blocking or lateral movement is 'incredible' he mustn't have much respect for the art of pugilism.
It annoys me to no end how they try to talk up their fighters when it's unwarranted. All it does is harm their brand, ironically.
I don't know what JDS and his trainers do in camp, but the guy never improves or learns from his mistakes, and he's always gassed within eight minutes, if that.
Apart from Cain, the HW division really lets the UFC down. Most of them don't look like they train and rely purely on brute force and 1-punch KO power as opposed to the rounded, skilled fighter that Cain is.
Jones talked about fighting Cain eventually at HW. If Jones can take his speed with him and has the power needed to fend off Cain's mauling style, it'll be the spectacle that division needs. As is, it's a joke of a division relative to the rest.
I watched it earlier and it was in Portuguese, thought JDS won it pretty clearly with 3, 4 and 5.
And Junior's face must be made of scar tissue. He looks like a monster afert every fight nowadays.
