This is gonna be a tight match here. I cant even call this.

Jorge gonna bring out those backyard fists and get a KO for Kimbo?

Can't wait to see Askren oddly lurch around the ring, get punched and kicked, and then suddenly grapple the opponent for a submission.

Question is if Ben loses will it humble him? Or will he shit talk more than ever?

Joe: "He is gonna squeeze your head"!

Ben has that wife beater tan for a troll right? lol

Remembering when Rockhold was being looked at as being a top fighter. He seemingly has all of the boxes ticked, but has stunning defensive lapses in fights and seems like he has no fight plan. After being knocked out a few times he seems oblivious, like he’s still in his mind a top fighter. Dude needs some humility.

I think I first watched him vs. Tim Kennedy back in Strikeforce; I was a fan of both of them for a while after that.

Three years ago I felt he was the most well rounded fighter on the planet. Super skilled. Chin and lack of IQ fail him

I can’t help but feel like it’s training/coaching. He definitely isn’t a granite chin guy, but you can’t come in with your hands down, break with your hands down and expect to survive in any weight class , especially against big guys at 205. Yet he’s a high level striker and BJJ guy making rookie mistakes.
