Worst All-American wrestler in history. I make TV for @UFC. I make podcast for @AnikFlorianPod. I make YouTube for @TheWindbags. But mostly Frankie's dad.

This was such a cool, sneaky throw by Nate. But it shows the weakness of a lot of judo/Greco-style throws in MMA: they’re built for the launch, not the landing. Perry easily scrambled on top.

Lost in Charles Oliveira’s dominant performance: he's the first fighter to actually get the better of Max Holloway after the trademark “point to the canvas” moment.

Really nice strike to single leg sequence shelf slam by Charles Jourdain against Jean Silva. But I never noticed the sneaky knee mid move. You could hear it.

Josh Hokit's striking is hilarious but he was well prepared for Blaydes' jab. Came over the top with a right several times. Hurt him twice.

No surprise Dr. David Martinez did his homework. The southpaw head kick is Chito's best weapon. KO'd Dominick Cruz with it. So Martinez was prepared with a catch and sweep twice. Easy, low energy TD and it made Chito wary of throwing his head kick.

Of all of Ilia Topuria’s performances, the Ryan Hall fight might low-key be his most impressive. He’s the only guy who didn’t look completely befuddled or like it was his first day of jiu-jitsu.

I’m getting WAYYYY ahead of myself, but Petr Yan vs. Ethyn Ewing feels like the kind of fight that would rewrite the rule book for boxing in MMA.

Racking my brain trying to think of better WMMA finishing sequences than Alexa Grasso last night. This came to mind.

This is the type of sequence from Tatsuro Taira that gets me all hot and bothered at his potential: -Reactive single -Puts in the hook -Pushes off the wall -Secures body triangle The whole sequence took 15 seconds. Against a former title challenger. He was 24 at the time.

Strickland is elite at getting back to his feet. Against DDP, he gave up 6 takedowns/mat returns, but was never held down longer than 46 seconds and absorbed ZERO ground strikes. Yes, Chimaev and DDP are very different wrestlers, but if Chimaev spends more energy finishing takedowns than Strickland spends getting up, the later rounds become a completely different fight.

Movsar Evloev had a 90% takedown success rate against Murphy. He never forced a TD and didn't even attempt one til round 3. Trademark Mike Brown-trained efficiency.

Dominick Cruz going off on women’s MMA wrestling—while Anik and DC try to steer the conversation elsewhere—lives rent-free in my head. (He's right BTW)

Bo Nickal asked Daniel Cormier what to expect in his UFC debut. Maybe its just the wrestler in me, but DC's answer gave me goosebumps. DC is every wrestler-turned-fighter's big brother. True coach.
