He's the best with them. Soccer kicks are kind of necessary to not give the grappling style every advantage. To balance out the Colby style.
It's why a lot of guys in Pride went for clinch trips. They make the sport more tactical and more realistic. Fail a shot and get the boot. Otherwise can just shoot 10 times without getting punished for them. Or butt scoot. Or play the knee to ground game. Soccer kicks/stomps change a lot of things, pretty much all for the better.
It's just...this is about TV optics. Imagining reception. That's not real.
