It was still a fun fight, but both guys with their complete lack of finishing instinct really hurt them. Johnson even landed a few clean shots but never followed up with shots after that. He felt content with striking, going up against the fence and getting taken down easily.

i actually found the fight somewhat boring. they were very technically sound, and cruz threw off a couple germans that cracked me up, but neither fighter was ever in danger, except for... the 3rd round i believe?... when cruz flattened mighty mouse out and went for the rear naked/neck crank. wiman/danzig was a fruckin ball. the stoppage on brenneman/rumble mightve been premature, but if he hadnt stepped in, i think rumble wouldve jumped all over him after the kick and ended it anyway. and barry/struve started to get fun in the 2nd round. everyone who tries the powerbomb saw rampage/arona, and as awesome as it looks... it just locks it in deeper, unless you drop him strictly on his head and more or less kill him. to be fair though, i thought that was fairly deep in the first place, and he had nowhere to go except to try to slam him and shake him up to get out. pretty fun night of fights, including the prelims. That's the thing, if you notice for a moment before the slam, Struve's foot is not connected underneath his knee all the way. I think Barry should have just stood up instead of slamming. While they were in the air and for a moment when they fell, Struve used his hand to sink the choke deeper. |
