interesting how lebedev never really punished fedors major flaws and mistakes they must be very friendly or else he was **** scared of getting taken down and killed, fedor looked so sloppy and couldnt land clean whatsoever
ya but i feel if **** had gotten real , fedor looks in his element , russian woods , fedor bear mode ko1
Boxer vs mma stance is very different. MMA fighters must be more square to thier opponents to avoid the shoot. Something tells me that if Fedor were to box for a living, his style would be severly different.
its not just that hes more square on though. his feet cross over, his hands dangling, he repeatedly backs up in a straight line. his fundamentals are shithouse.. i think you are right though hed tidy up a little if he was a boxer
he was sparring boxing so im sure he adjusted his stance to a more boxing orientated one, i dont think he was worried about lebedev going for the double leg td
Fedors Sambo stance looks very odd to a boxer, the guy is genuinely quick and actually has a very good offence and defence, Fedor has one of the most feared standup in MMA and also is the least hit fighter in MMA. If Fedor didn’t hold back on some of those punches, Lebedev would have been in big big trouble. Another video to look at is Fedor sparring against his brother, this video better illustrates his movement and his odd way of punching. Another fighter that has the same stance, punches, movement to Fedor is Igor V. Igor was once and still is one of the most devastating MMA fighter as well as a very good kickboxing record.
It look like its the other way around. If Fedor was really going to the total kill then he would have kicked, punched and tore off a limb. Fedors punches, even his jab looking ones are normally brutal and unyielding. Now lets look at Fedor sparring against his brother [yt]mA6folCFG1k[/yt]
you obviously dont know Fedor well enough then, the guy doesnt really jab like everyone else, most of his proper punches are power punches.
So ****ing what the other guys a professional boxer fedor isnt and it shows. If fedor didn't hold back neither would the other guy and fedor would get outboxed power punches and all.
so ****en what? one is a HW, one is regarded as a GOAT in his sport, one has a very good kickboxing, very good ground and good standup. If both fighters dont hold back I definately know who im putting my money on.
