Mousasi Getting Upset

I can't wait until Mousasi shows him what fighting is all about. Gregard will finish it by early 2nd round if not the first.

Fedor would let all that trash talk roll off and say nothing. Guess Mousasi dosn't roll with him anymore.

No way.

Fedor hears guys like Dana, Timmy(not anymore), Mir, and Lesnar run their mouth and wants to crush them. He just doesn't show it.

He doesn't seem too upset. He can handle it. King Mo is an unlikable guy at times for some, so I can see what he is saying.

haha ...I can't wait for this fight. Don't underestimate Lawal just because he is cocky. The funny thing is, he doesnt degrade his opponents, just boosts himself up, yet people hate him. All the while, guys like Diaz degrade their opponents constantly and get nothing but love from people. Anyway, a lot of people think Mousassi is going to destroy Lawal, and that won't happen. Similar to how people thought Marquardt would destroy Sonnen. I think most will be equally as shocked and disappointed.

So M-1 wanted him to work for free? No wonder he left, especially after hanging with GSP who rolls to the nines all the way. I would be pissed and broke if I were him.

I don't blame him for leaving at all. I just kinda liked the idea of a fighter just as stoic as Fedor. Oh well, King Mo is an ass and he would get on my nerves too. Hope Mousasi doesn't let Mo get into his head. King Mo could be dangerious if Mousasi lets him

Mo's response

I like King Mo but also like Mousasi so I would just love to see the fight happen.

I got King Mo all the way.

you mean...King MOusasi lol

I dont see Mousasi losing that fight, sorry.

I'm not so sure. Mo has the skillset to give Mousasi problems here. Fantastic wrestling background + very heavy hands= Mousasi having to pick a poison. Not to mention the size advantage may play a factor here. Mousasi is far and away the more technical striker, but Mo has more than a punchers chance here.

Keep in mind that Mousasi just left M-1. He doesn't have the same training partners anymore, he now has to find somewhere else to train, other people to train with, and that could have a huge effect on him. I don't care who you are but you don't go from training with Fedor and Aleksander Emeilienanko to just anyone else and not having a few problems adjusting come fight night.

I just see King Mo crushing many of the man crushes people have developed on mousasi. I actually like both fighters, but as in most cases stills make fights. I also don't know who mousasi could train with to match Mo's wrestling, athleticism, strength, size, and shit talkin skillz LOL.

M-1 isn't a camp. He can still train with Fedor as long as he is still cool with reddevil, which I am sure he is. Plus, GSP, Freddie Roach and Ernesto Hoost, his other partners and trainers he has worked with, got nothing to do with M-1.

Wolf who are you picking in this fight just curious???

Mousasi, but King Mo offers something in the way of a matchup problem for him. I just question Mo's experience.

Mousasi I believe Mousasi may have some vulnerability to strong American wrestlers, but especially greco fighters. Mo would be an issue, but a Dan Henderson would be a very very bad match to him.

Hendo is a bad match up for most people. I think Mo has the right confidence in order to nullify some of the inexperience jitters most people have. Plus he trains with animals.

I'm with you on this Wolf

Everyone has trouble with very good greco roman wrestlers, just like everyone has trouble with very good strikers or BJJ guys.

Yes, farmer, obviously, but I am talking a specific vulnerability to upper-body throws and wrestling in general. European kickboxers, even ones with developed submission games are always weak this way and he has shown that in his fights, where muay Thai based fighters, especially of the Brazilian MT style, are less weak to this on average, much less American wrestler-strikers which make up the majority of the UFC's division.

Generally speaking, anyone with a strong takedown game, especially and upper body takedown game, like a Soko or Hendo, would pose a more interesting problem for Mousasi, IMO.

Farmer, think of this like an RPG. wrestler HP count as double against Mousasi.

Who are these other European kickboxers that are especially weak?

After that are you saying Brazilian MT fighters are better against Greco? You need to work on that sentence structure.

Anyway I'm not disagreeing that Soko used his elite throws against Mousasi, but I don't see King Mo being able to do the same. Mo is a freestyle wrestler that likes to strike. That sounds a lot more like your "American wrestler-stiker" type.

Thanks teach, but what I was saying is MT from Brazil are not going to be as vulnerable in the clinch to takedowns as European kickboxers, much less American wrestler-strikers like Rampage, Rashad, Liddell, Couture(yes, look at his last ten fights) King Mo, Jon Jones, Keith Jardine, Dan Henderson ect.

Do you really need examples on European kickboxers weakness to takedowns farmer? This ain't your first rodeo partner.
