Gegard

I have watched live every Gegard fight live since Pride. Johnny threw an overhand right and a left jab nothing else. Gegard no leg kicks throughout the fight a major weapon also barly jabbing actually doing nothing. Johnny nobody unless you watch Bellator knows him.I say Gegard wants out. Gegard won the last 5 fights in the UFC about to a get a title shot Thiago,Vitor, Weidman   Leaves for Bellator has a tough fight with Alexader( who is always dangerous) then wins easy every fight. Gegard could not adjust to an overhand right and a a left jab, Do not buy it.
