Dislike all you want, Garry is good but he’s indeed overrated. I like him but the hype he was getting like he was the next coming of Conor is false

I think Garry wants a highlight reel, otherwise he could just take Song down.

I can't think of any jabs to the body that have looked as effective as these by Garry!

Song rocked him and tried to grapple, but now he won't even go for a single leg...

Song has been biting onto feints way too easily. Garry gained composure like a champ, very impressive

Songs defense is ass his head just stays on  the center line and that jab can’t miss when garry really extends it

Kenan deathgasses which I think is the reason they picked him. They know Garry has had trouble finding finishes at times and they figured if the opponent just dies on his feet it will be a free pickup if Garry hasn't already found the finish.

Garry has a finish on a platter here in the 3rd. Songs left leg is dead and he's really starting to bust him with that jab.

I'm surprised Kenan hits Garry so clean with Garry's perfect defensive technique of backing up in a straight line with his arms low and leaning his head back chin up in the air.

Won't take long for Garry to finish Song if he keeps his output high. Song has problems fighting off his backfoot and doesn't defend the jabs or calfkicks
