Mighty Mouse put in a great performance this weekend in One FC, also John Wayne Parr retired, he's part of the furniture
You could see in his face he was devastated
DJ even looked good in the standup round. It showed how difficult a boxer would find it in the cage against a top flight MMA guy.

He beat Rodtang mate. It’s on YouTube worth a watch.

no to mention fair play for Rodtang for being willing to do the 2rds MMA
His takedown defense was terrible. He fell for the fake and winged a hook so massive it turned his back. Terrible mistake against someone as good as DJ. You can’t just wade in and knock a guy as technically brilliant as him out.

i'd expect nothing less/ more tbh
I had been watching both train and I thought Rodtang would have had better takedown and submission defense tbh. There was talk of him transitioning to MMA if he won.
Yes I was gutted because he’s my joint favourite active fighter just now along with Jiri Prochaska

irrespective of what training he had done i would have laid strong odds on his throwing a full-power hook and getting taken down
Hahahahahahha true mate.
He loves a left hook doesn’t he. Great fighter at his own game.

Yes he was on job
Would be a very tough nights work
Because I’ve sparred a couple of high ish level jits guys and had them wobbling taking it easy, I’ve always felt a good boxer would take their heads off but one mistake from Rodtang and it was game over.

Yeah & some of them guys don't like taking shots,and from that point will make it their business to time you,shoot underneath your shot an go for the takedown, from then, unless he's weak as a kitten , you will likely get wrapped up
Always about finding a way to impose yourself on someone who has a lot of tools in their kit,and making them wary enough to not try and work it on you, if you can't and they can make it their fight then you've got a job on your hands

Good thing is I’m too old to fight under rules these days, so can always resort to gouging and biting if a one two hook gets me in bother
the verdict could have gone to both, though.
it's far too late now unfortunately
