Bader also gets flustered easily if things don't go his way early on, he's a real front runner. I'm expecting his early takedowns to get stuffed, while Machida lights him up a few times on the feet. Bader panics, runs out of ideas and gets stopped in the first couple of rounds.
That's the reason why I don't like Machida...there is come kind of limit to be a counter puncher !! And while I was writing that KO...still took some time !
That there is prototypical Machida. You don't just throw wild haymakers at him and hope for the best.
So...you literally RUN chin first into the second best straight punching counter fighters in the game Tell me how MMA has ''EVOLVED'' again people Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeroy Jeeeeenkinssss!
Nothing to do with any Karate style. Bader simple can't handle striking in any form. Boxing 101 never lunge or dive into a punch... (especially with your hands down).
