Viera is so complacent with his grappling. He’s so good that he’s actually a bit too laid back in positions. Needs to be more urgent getting his hooks in and controlling positions rather than rushing sub attempts

Seriously though huge props to Hernandez, that was a perfect situation for Veira.

Veira got the takedown 10 seconds in, he was dry, he wasn't tired and then Hernandez got out of the ground ****** him up and just submitted him at his own game.

I think Vieira can even stay one dimensional if he can find more than one round of cardio. Stop working out the popcorn muscles!

You don’t even need to take a striking class to know to keep your hands up. Viera  didn’t once

He was maybe an inch away from choking him out in the first 30 seconds. What a crazy swing...

Man all this comparing to GSP kind of pisses me off. GSP amassed his win streak when he was already a ranked fighter fighting exclusively title defenses or ranked killers. Matching or exceeding his win streak isn't quite as meaningful until he does it exclusively against ranked murderers.
