I'm afraid I mightve overthought this one. Took it out of my parlays just to avoid any Herman vet tricky stuff.

Menifield seems the load up on the right then not pull it back for a while. Is anyone else seeing how out of position he is after it?

I really don't rate Menifield. Picking OSP is one of my all time favorite dog plays. He should be able to do this with pure power, but he's not a top fighter.

You know your cardio poor if 40 year old Herman is waiting for you to gas

I agree erison and he’s already 33 I don’t see him becoming much more technical anywhere. A powerful athlete who can only use that for one round of its fought at a decent pace

Oh man Ed looks bad. The chance for veteran tricky stuff is there, but he just can't pull the trigger.

If someone is forced to switch stances throw some volume . Their defence is always worse in the other stance

Every MMA fighter needs to be practicing calf kicks like they're free throws. You just need to be able to land them and defend them. It's basic now.
