there are great wrestlers but the reason i like bo is becuase in wrestling he had this crazy strenth and great positioning like his power was crazy. i wanted t osee how his power will be in ufc thats why im watching. he took a smooth route and trained his punching with masividal while teaching masvidal wrestling defence. his defence is crazy good better than islam maybe. dude this guy grapiling is so strong the average fighter cant handle his power only skilled figths will know. henry is an olympic champ look how he dominated the league. bo islnot olympic but up there with cormier and this dude middle weight man i dotn think anyone in middle weight can handle him maybe usman, leon or coby, thats about it. we will look into his striking becuase usman got good striking and his wrestling nothing but spectacular. but bo is the better wrestler over tbh

Not taking anything from him, but Don’t get it twisted this dude trains at arguably the best MMA gym in the world, has been wrestling at THEE highest level his entire life, and can easily dismantle any middleweight they’d put in front of him on DWCS. He is arguably the best wrestler in middleweight already and there’s zero chance anyone on contender series was going to be able to stop him. It’s going to be super interesting to see how fast he rips through that division and how good he’ll be in in a few years when his striking is at a high level as well. It would also be super interesting to see him against a guy like Andre Muniz considering he’s 0-1-2 in professional grappling matches. Definitely adds some MUCH needed skill into that division and I can’t wait to see him start his climb.

What's crazy is that he faked a takedown, and his opponent dropped his hands preparing to try to defend a takedown, and he threw the punch on the way in for a takedown, so he was literally doing a takedown with a punch to the chin mixed in at the last second. It was a genius move, and it seems odd that we don't see that exact move from other more seasoned fighters? I think Tito Ortiz did this exact same punch and knocked out Ryan Bader? Dan Henderson with his crazy overhand rights, as he was lunging in wildly? But it doesn't seem like many fighters execute a fake takedown punch that effectively.

That transition and triangle choke is not a novice BJJ move at all. That was so slick and fluid, he’s more than ready. Gonna be a problem for the unranked guys but middle weight has some heavy hitters so the rise in the weight class is always risky from getting clipped. His cardio won’t be an issue, let’s hope his stand up continues to improve and he’s going to be a problem for a long time.

World class athlete right here.. he's going to be a series problem. We all know his wrestling is WORLD class, he just showed power in his hands, but what impressed me the most was his bjj.. Sooo smooth with the transition like he is Charlie olive. This is just the beginning folks..bo thrives at the top. Where he was in wresting all those years. This man will be a ufc champion in no time. 💯
