I don't want to speak for baremaras but I think what we mean by outstruck is pretty much outboxed, and that picture does not depict Edmen being outboxed

@el222 if that's what he meant, he should have been clearer I suppose. I don't think it's on me to interpret that  text as 'outboxed' when he wrote:

"edmen tends to getoutstruck" -who has outstruck edmen?

We're in an MMA context here, after all. And if he did mean that he'd still be wrong, because he did get outboxed by Brunson.

He also wrote:

 how "COULD" they be true when there's literal evidence and footage that those things have never happened?
 
No such evidence exists.Evidence to the contrary exists. Anyone could confirm this by simply looking up the fight stats, or by rewatching the fight. 

The answer to that question is Derek Brunson and more. For a poster who prides himself on being a professional gambler, that's probably information he should have been aware of IMO. Even I was able to recall this, and I'm barely paying attention to anything the vast majority of the time.

I agree the picture doesn't show him getting outstruck, because it isn't footage.
The stats show he did, though. I posted those too.

He also got outstruck by Hermannson.

http://ufcstats.com/fight-details/7f8340dfe4220c3e

And by Imavov:

http://ufcstats.com/fight-details/095a351dd6f09f7e

So I don't really understand why he thinks my contention that Edmen tends to lose when he gets outstruck is wrong, because it is objectively, quite literally true, and it is clearly the case that I am as right as it is possible to be, and he is as wrong as it is possible to be. Imagine how low I.Q you'd need to be to embark on a three-post-textwall apoplectic rant about the way in which somebody is wrong without even fact-checking to see if they're right first.

I don't think he understands how MMA scoring works. Strikes that land in GNP are as valid on the mat as they are on the feet.

I actually have no idea what he even means. I don't think he does either.

I think you're arguing with a wall tbh. of course Brunson technically outstruck him, the numbers don't lie. but fair enough I guess he should've been more clear

"Strikes that land in GNP are as valid on the mat as they are on the feet" he never said they weren't, that's just a strawman

@el222 agree that odds seem a bit stiff for Fluffy. This fight slightly favors Fluffy & his confidence. Is Edmen progressing & building confidence or was his previous rude awakenings just signs of serious structural problems?

Edmund couldn’t even KO Brunson or Hermanson, I’m not going to expect him to finish Henrandez who has the same style which beat Edman every time,  also Nassodine out wresle him, Hernandez has better grappling then that 

Expecting Hernandez to grind his way to victory

Also to add, most time Edmun get out of the 1st round he become notably more ****, I don’t like 1 round fighter in divison that ain’t heavyweight, you need 2 round cardio to be successful at MMA

you keep exposing yourself that you do not watch MMA and don't have the slightest clue about it, LOL

you do realize that picture of Brunson and Edmen is a grappling scenario, right? how is that your evidence for Brunson OUTSTRIKING Edmen?

you keep bringing up stats and not footage because you haven't watched the fights, those stats are depicting ground and pound damage which is a result of grappling exchanges

 I think it's really pointless arguing with you when you equate Brunson, Imavov and Hermansson outgrappling Edmen and landing ground and pound damage with outstriking him, that really is crazy LMAO


there you go friend, keyword here is "STANDING". educate yourself a little and please start watching a bit more because you're very obviously lacking in knowledge

i don't know if you realize yourself how off topic you are and little sense you're making but i'll reply to you with the same anecdotal logic

Anderson Silva couldn't knock out Brunson either

Dricus and Israel couldn't knock out Tavares but Edmen did

Hermansson has only been cleanly knocked out by Cannonier and Thiago Santos 


*** is your point?

Edmen may win by hairline on the basis of his clean striking IF Hernandez grappling wouldn't work.

@baremaras the point is, you are objectively wrong. I gave you three examples of Edmen being outstruck. It doesn't matter what you think about that.  It's just math.And yes, Brunson did outstrike him on the feet, and yes, ground strikes count. Have you never seen a fight in which somebody gets beaten up from the bottom?

Brunson literally finished him by KO/TKO. How do you suppose he did that if he's supposedly never been outstruck? He was getting beaten up on the feet before that even happened.

You can watch Brunson tool him up standing here, regardless. Edmen was only roughly even with him in R1. As the fight went on, he got worse and worse, as he always does. He's a one-round fighter who has literally never beaten anyone good.

Yes, he should be the underdog. Perhaps not so much a large underdog, but an underdog all the same.The bookies are right, and you are an angry man on the internet. Hernandez has many more ways to win than he does, and as the fight goes on, it favours him more and more.

you didn't reply to anything I said and very conveniently ignored the picture with the definition of what "striking" means in the context of MMA 

you seem unable to argue within the constraints of widely agreed upon definitions in the MMA world by both fans and experts and you also seem unable to present any arguments worth responding to so i'm going to let you be, have fun thinking ground and pound is striking and not grappling

He might catch him, but I don’t like praying on a 2 minute finish because statistically that don’t happen unless you fighting someone fragile or a jabroni and Hernandez is neither, most likely he going to use his pace and gas out Shabiazion 

Edmun 1st round could be worth it, i personally don’t like 1 round fighter and especially if they fighting a cardio monster

Also Brunson was Silva only MMA win since 2012, Don’t use 2017 Silva as an example becuase he wasn’t champ Silva

Ive went Fiahlo cause Buckley has been cracked and is going down a division so he will be MORE compromised. This is a Garbrandt v Kai moment. Fiahlo can definitely get ko'd himself but if he can work off calf kicks and get in close quarters and land uppercuts / knees he should be able to get the W

 @****les 65% after 100 picks...I'm curious, is this an alt? Or are you new to tapology, but act as if you've been here for years...? 

Always baffles me when these pick % touters and people who claim to know all so much sit here and type with no track record. We're talking 100-300 UFC picks at 65% for the both of you (which I will admit is still impressive), and you'd think these were veterans of tapology going back and forth. Looks like you arguing about the most pointless **** with someone seems to be a normality with that post count in less than a year. 

There was so much talking/fighting about pointless ****, I couldn't even understand any reasons why either of you liked the fighter or side you're on in the actual fight this weekend. Talked more about Derek Brunson (who isn't even fighting), than any examples or reasons why you like the fighters IN THE FIGHT vs each other. 😄
