The mechanics of being 7ft and 270lbs when you wake up don't allow that kind of movement. It takes years for heavyweights to build up to that athleticism, unless they are freak athletes but those guys go to other sports.

And also explain how every fighter to grapple and take down Derrick lewis has either been knocked out or lost (other than dc): gonzaga, pesta, latifi, abdurakhimov, tybura and blagoy for example. He absolutely can wrestle, how did he manage to take down oleynik and not get submitted whilst being deep into a scarf hold? He’s very under the radar with his skillser, but I agree, bam bam would fuck him up

That was the worst I have ever seen Stefan Struve fight! And he actually did very well in his Ben Rothwell bout. I thought he would do better than that. He might be eligible for just one more UFC match, but he has to fight like a legitimate athlete! He needs to get much quicker than he was in this fight. He has so much potential, but he's a real gamble of a fighter! I think he needs to fight more often and be "most of all" more aggressive! I hope that Dana White will give him one more chance. Struve's been a valuable fighter!
