Matt Delanoit vs Ben Askren

hey asdfadsfasdfadsfasfdsaf, get a life. You have no right to say that stuff if your gonna hide you name and act like you have the right to criticize his fighting. I'd like to see you in the cage with him.

k, that taunt at the end was totally unnecessary as i, no joke, probably can give him a ktfo in 10 secs, or most fighters who train for a day. he'll never make it big in mma. he's only winning right now because he's fighting shits. he should stick to wrestling.

looking good just need to attack that takedown right away even though you got it fairly easy, your striking needs to get deadly or your gona face someone with good striking and there gonna light you up now iknow you can elude that with great wrestling but the really good fighters no all the loopholes

yoo. ben needs to come down to nc and train with team huskey. learn some catch wrestling. awesome skills. i think johnny (huskey) could tighten his game up.

I wish he would learn how to strike...

He's no Dan Henderson

truth is- there isn't a ton of fights that end with a k/o on your feet

i give the victory to bobby douglas

Bruce Lee in the octagon hell thats a great question he is very strong dispite his size so he would almost always be underestimated not to mention the speed and force he could create I guess it would depend on the fight match up. he was awesome at what he did but when you put the ground in the mix he may have been lost. Hell good question

Owe hell ya no doubt that Askren has a nice base and starting point but in the same token so does Matt as for the striking ya needs work but all the same even with Askens freestyle it still took awhile for him to gain the control its a great fight to talk about. To be honest I guess I was wrong the fight wasnt impressive to me but the 2 fighters showed alot of potential I truly expect to see some great fights come from both of these guys. Matt maybe talk to your trainer and if your going to fight at 170lbs walk around at 190lbs instead of 205 ya the weight is great and all but I am wondering if the impact of that kind of drop played a role. Hell what do I know I could be dead wrong. ; )

Asdfgasdf lets leave the insults out of this I am intitled to my opinion as is everyone else but if you wanna run your mouth you can just go F**** yourself you cowardly ass B**** its about fun and the sport. With that being said I liked the comment that Tex said the "dont even compare ben to gsp. ok first of all gsp is a beast hes olny the welter weight champoin for a reason" yes Ben is agreat wrestler but this is about mma.

Always liked watching Ben wrestling in college, but this is the second time for me watching him MMA and its flat out ugly. He moves awkwardly, no punching skills, leaves himself open. Anyone with decent boxing and kicking skills will destroy him.

I don't follow mma much at all, but from what I've read, it seems like lots of people are unimpressed with how Ben looks so far. Let me tell you, Ben never LOOKED very impressive wrestling either. He was so slow, methodical, and almost sloppy looking. But guess what? He fricking pinned everybody with his unorthodox style. Doesn't suprise me that Ben doesn't LOOK impressive, yet continues to win.

Did anyone else notice that it only took :45 once the fight hit the ground?

You can hear GPS even say he think wrestling is the most important part of his MMA training. http://www.purefight.org/videos/play/145316-georges-st-pierre

So again if you've watched his fights, heard people talk about him, and read about his training you would know GPS knows his wrestling and knows it decently well. To the extent of being able to beat some of the better US wrestlers in a pure wrestling match, that we will not know until that type of match occurs.
