Roach: Fedor has no technique when it comes to striking!

If those hooks were short and compact he would've been jabbed to death by Sylvia. Sylvia eats short and compact. See Arlovski-Sylvia 3, as far as I remember Arlovski was throwing pretty compact and short, too bad they were hitting dust.

 

Arthur Abraham started throwing pretty wild and wide once he hurt Miranda because he knew he could at that point. Yet people on this site consider him an A level boxer. This is still 'spur of the moment' reactions to a particular situation. He still has to be aware of a clinch/takedown/kick/etc.....

Id Freddy Roach the kid from Jerry McGuire all grown up?

 

agreed.... still , Roach is correct...Fedor has no technic but , it's not like fedor ever claimed to be a striking expert or anything...we know what he's proud of...his sambo background. his fighting record speaks for itself too...he submits his opponents (most of the time).

He's far from being a ko machine.

he gets away with it because he's pretty fast.

Will it work against Arlovski ? One thing i know is that arvloski vs fedor is mma's most important fight of 2009. (yes , 2009 is ****ing far from being over , but any fights which involves an ex-champion or contender VS fedor...is ultra important ).

 

Of course his boxing technique is flawed, he isn't a boxer and he has never fought a boxing match. Roach I don't think is understanding MMA he is just focused on the striking aspect of it and doesn't realize the stances and techniques to defend are vastly different.

 

Ofcourse freddy is going to find faults in Fedor...Freddy has been helping AA on his striking game for several years and is obviously going to make out his fighter is way more techniquely sound..

Im actually a boxer who really enjoys watching MMA as i feel its definetly the future of the fight game...Very appealing..

Also must admit a regular boxers stance is way to stiff and focuses (obviously) only on the opponents upper body movements..Which aint a good idea in MMA as within a second u could be on your back from either a takedown or mass head kick...

 

This is what it comes down to.

 

The only real problem with Fedors technique is he lands his hooks on his thumbs and has had hand problems because of it, and will continue to break bones in his hand if he keeps doing it.

 

Be prepared to be called a liar, a traitor, and then it will get ugly.

 

i believe kimbo slice is fishing for a fight with fedor

 

That would be pointless. He has virtually no chance against Fedor.

 

I highly doubt that. Fedor would submit his beard by RNC and then beat him with it. No one wants to see that fight and its certainly not even a rumour.

 

was on hifacebook page actually, his real page

 

O right.. It must be true then.
