      Hardcore and non casual fans mostly appreciate the fighters by their performances inside the cage
      You do great inside the cage, you will have fans regardless of how much you promote yourself, or how much you talk trash
      Fighters who are actually skilled, but just regular, humble, respectful, hard-working blokes (Volk being a perfect example), are extremely liked exactly because of this

    • @frosty2.010
      @frosty2.010 Před rokem +8

      She's not mighty mouse. Not close. Shevchenko is well rounded but she is still a specialist. Santos out grappled her on almost every engagement. Even when she gained a dominant position it was reversed easily. She bjj is good but it's not great. Her wrestling is good but not technically proficient. Erin has much better grappling and wrestling. While Shevchenko is definitely better on the feet, she can still compete with her on the feet unlike most flyweights. Erin is definitely better at mixing things up. That being said, it doesn't mean that Shevchenko won't beat her tho. Most champions are actually specialist, and not so well rounded like Blanchfield. You don't have to be.

      Its a lot more intriguing than that. We saw Santos hold Valentina down, so there is no reason Erin can't plus she is a lot more of a submission threat. Obviously she has to be careful on the feet but there is a path to victory for Blanchfield

      @@nickmildon6348 With a champion like Valentina motivation can become an issue as victories pile up. Same with someone like Nunes. Look what happened in the first Nunes-Pena fight. Amanda wasn't prepared, got beat, and maybe people were writing her off. But in the rematch with Pena, when Nunes now had something to prove again, Nunes destroyed Pena and regained her title. I'm sure Valentina is hearing all the people saying how Santos should have won the last fight, and what's this? Now there's this young girl Erin Blanchfield who people believe can beat Valentina. Might submit Valentina, which has never been done before. Champions like Valentina use all this as motivation. Of course, if she struggles against Grasso in a few weeks, then nevermind. lol.

    It is mind boggling how VS is being watered down after the TS fight. VS tried to beat her at her own game, T was too strong but T never got close to a submission and did no damage besides holding on. Once VS abandoned that gameplan and pulled her into center pit it was over, TS had no standup. Had VS done that to begin with, its a much smoother fight for her. Nonetheless, it happens and I dont see B beating VS, no way in hell. But hope she gets the opportunity soon!
