Chimaev doing good on the fest, Sean as usually is way too passive. That knee from his last fight would do wonders rn
Now Strickland looks slow and tired. Chimaev´s pressure is getting to him. Chimaev coming alive now, looks faster, sharper, and more active.
Chimaev looking stronger as the fight goes on. Strickland in a lower gear Could be Even fight going into Rd 5
The decision is basically entirely dependent on round 5 imo, Sean try to be aggressive for once ffs the standup is YOUR TERRITORY
Strickland is not using a lot of his tools here; knees, the teep, calf kicks, hand frames, pressure fighting. The threat of the takedown and Chimaev´s pressure are the reason why. Most likely 2-2 now.
Sean needs to put everything in this last round; probably your last title fight if you lose so why not
