Last time I think was Enoue but that was Randys early years...I heard or read this interview somewhere and will post article of it..I mean Randy, Matt L, these are BJ's greatest fans. Anyway its beside the point As far as Sherk..I'm one who never bad mouth him because hes great..Hes a dynamo. the problem in his game is the lack of skills once he gets into a dominant position to finish or attemp subs.. He cannot GNP as well at least against top level BJJ guys and BJ is at the top in MMA. And who has ever done damage in BJs guard...Sherk is not the best he's facing..Id say Gomi is a better GNPer than Sherk but Gomi couldnt do ****...The logical question is what does Sherk bring that Hughes, GSP, Renzo, Gomi, Machida, couldnt? One thing I like about Sean is hes great at gaining position like passing a guard (he does this faster than anyone along with Penn) but he just cant inflict great damage. And fighters know this..just ask Florian..whos whole theme is that he finishes.unlike_____
JZ aint great... hes very good I give him that. Dont let the Shaolin win fool you...Shao's great in Gi competitor but MMA he aint all that. I dont see a comparison... BJs pure Jujitsu is on Viera, Shaolins level just a notch below the big three of Souza, garcia and Roger.. No Gi BJ is top 5 in the world and in MMA JJ..hes tops JZ is a few notches below all these guys... and dont be deceive by JZs standup...he meets someone who strikes back he'll be soon be declared overrated
To be fair JZ took Masato to a decision in K1 max, but I agree, BJ's standup is better...BJ's everything is better.
I do believe JZ will handle Aoki.. I wanted to see this fight. I could be wrong. To me Aoki is so overrated, he's got one good thing he do..his rubber guard but other than that..hes got no top game. At least JZ has decent wrestling skills and can GNP
