The Official MMA Thread: UFC FIGHT NIGHT IN RIYADH - ISRAEL ADESANYA VS. NASSOURDINE IMAVOV: RETURN OF THE KING OR RISE OF THE IMAVOV - 2/1 @ 9AM EST

Always thought Usman would be the best of Team Eagle. While he's still young enough to make that happen, his grappling just seems a level below Islam and his brother. Even watching his fights before it seems like he only shoots when he's in open space.
Usman and Umar both look like they can use a level up of their cardio.
I don't think they have bad cardio. I think Usman didn't expect all the body work from Hughes. He was getting lit the **** up everytime he initiated the clinch. Probably didn't see any of that coming when they made the gameplan.

Umar was just what happens when you face Merab. Aint no way to prep for someone to shoot 25+ times on you. Merab is just a genetic freak.
