i fcking hated that era. Literally the cringiest shit i ever saw was Ronda and Edmond on the podcast, spoiler, Joe starts crying saying no one like Ronda has ever existed before.
end of round 4 he says to his corner, to paraphrase, 'so i need to go for it now' - he then knocks down Islam and ground and pounds. So he could be better by being a little more aggressive earlier - which Volk also said post fight conference.
throwing punches vs holding onto someone.
You're only correct IF islam is effective at creating fight ending situations, it looked like he didn't even try. Just held on. Pathetic.

looked like a fake KO. Possibly a set up to launch Wilder again. Before i get flamed, Wilder and his sparring partners have done this before, check out the phantom punch that knocked out his now trainer Malick Scott.
(yeah Heli went stiff, but if it was a setup u could straighten your legs and...
