UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Daukaus

Really…? Really??? We’re doing this again???

Did you guys learn nothing from Yorgan De Castro? Having heavy hands and literally nothing else doesn’t automatically determine you as the victor. As harsh as it sounds, Justin Tafa is a much slower, much less skilled Tai Tuivasa. And I mean far less skilled. All his does is stand high and tall, his chin up the air, fists clenched below his nipples, inching slowly forward like a slug with cerebral palsy. His hands are heavy but he rarely throws them offensively and becomes a human punching bag as a result. And unlike Tuivasa, he doesn’t have the truly devastating leg kicks to help set up his punches, which is what Tai used to knock out Harry in their fight. I’d thought after Tafa’s bout with Jared people would catch on the guy is overhyped for literally no reason. His biggest victory is Juan “The Can” Adams for ****’s sake. But no, the UFC is still somehow able to dig up the absolute bottom of the barrel contenders for braindead heavy hitters like Yorgan and Tafa just to add something, ******* anything to this cluster**** wasteland of talent that is the heavyweight division.

But with all that said, do I really believe Harry, a guy who got finished in his DWCS shot, and was brought in on short notice as a sacrificial lamb to a Hawaiian shoe drinking orc, is going to beat Tafa? Ab-so-*******-lutely. I think Tafa will get wrestle****** and submitted, in fact. Harry may have earned a reputation as a braindead kill or be killed brawler, but he actually has more submission wins on his resume than knockouts. If he cares about staying in the UFC, Harry will resort to desperate matters and take Tafa’s helpless ass to the ground and submit him immediately. Sure, Harry’s wins may only consist of gutter trash, but so does Tafa. I see a sad and depressingly one sided assbeating by Harry in this one.
