I'm interested in it if Gane has finally dedicated his absurd athletic talent towards defensive wrestling. I have the feeling that he could become very competent very quickly. If not...I dont think the fight goes very long. I do think he's the one guy who could frustrate the hell out of Aspinall on the feet and even win a decision... on his feet
well, i can get that, but it's like the fight against spivac didn't happen.
spivac was supposed to be THE test to see if gane TDD has improved. and spivac wasn't even able to put an hand on him.
Gane won't probably ever have a great ground game, but many great fighters, even champs, didn't have either.
but this fight against jones, he just wasn't the same: not moving on his feet like he usually does, throwing an ill advised jab, giving his back...... even on his feet, it was not him this night. We should'nt judge him only on this bad fight. he has destroyed almost the entire category outside of this fight.
he's not a submission artist neither he's a KO guy. but the way he makes opponents want to quit is something rare to see. we're talking about bmf here, tough guys, and they all finish the same way against gane, turning their back and going into turtle position. that's not something usual in this sport at this level.
