Figured Shogun would lose a boxing match against the more diverse, faster, younger Gustafsson.
Shogun would have been a lot more successful in the UFC had he used his jiu jitsu, gnp, wrestling, and Muay Thai as opposed to becoming a boxer who occasionally throws out leg kicks. That’s why his fights with Machida were so great to see.
Anyway great win for Gus. He needs a lot of work on his defensive skills before he takes on Jones (he’s gonna whoop Sonnen, no need for the “or”). That whole let me throw my hands up while I backpedal isn’t working on someone with the reach and speed of Jones.
