He is a wild man, who is under control enough to move the wife and kid out of the way before starting a brawl. Of course if he gets CTE, who knows what could happen, but if he were a ticking time bomb, at 32 years old he'd have a record: DUIs, domestic violence, arrests for assault, like Jon Jones or War Machine did. I'd wager he's fine

Go back to Gilbert Yvel vs Semi Schilts, training partners, both Dutch, friends, and how violent it was. Mark Coleman vs Don Frye, no bad blood, a lot of respect and good nature, very violent fight. Wonderboy vs Holland, maybe not violent, but very entertaining, and there was only respect, and good grace amongst both. Cro Cop vs Pat Barry, training partners, friends, and the fight was still violent. Zombie vs Max, nothing but respect and admiration, yet very violent. Oh, yeah, you are right, what a casual I am.

    • @user-um4ki5xj7y
      @user-um4ki5xj7y Před 4 měsíci

      If Dricus pushes the pace and wins R1. Dricus has early success R2 but starts gassing out, which allows Sean to take over for a couple of minutes, but Dricus lands something big at the end of the round. Then, Dricus has a second wind during R3 and puts it on Sean to take R3. However, If Dricus pushing a pace like this, I figure Sean would take over as the fight continues to takeoff, which would give him R4 or R5. However, in this scenario, Sean would likely take R2 when Dricus is gassing out a bit. I could see Sean getting 3-2 decision, with it being less likely that Dricus gets one. Sean could get a dominant decision like against Adesanya, but if he just dominates Dricus, and Dricus can’t land shit, he will probably get finished in the latter half of the fight..with Sean getting a TKO
