| UFC 87 : Seek and Destroy fight video of Ryan Thomas Vs Ben Saunders. | |
Impressive display by Saunders. If he can refine his standup arsenal a little more, he’s got a ton of potential.
some sick Ju Jitsu at the end is he brown/black belt, I know him from the ultimate fighter. Im surprised he aint got a push yet.
nice transition from arm lock to arm bar.
what arm lock?… he didn’t have the position.
ok fight… too slow!
god, these guys are tall for welterweights. GSP used to be tall for welterweight. now there are all these 6 foot plus guys cutting down.
Likeable guy based on TUF- easy to root for…seems a bit slow and unrefined for the real welterweight contenders at this point. ATT has helped him improve dramatically in the past year and should continue to get him ready for some tougher competition.
I bet that UFC could stop bringing Mike Goldberg to shows to announce fights and just play clips of him saying the same things he always does and no one would notice.
lol@audtiodrug your so right haha…
too bad j-roc got injured
it was chamura to arm bar
looks like thomas came out of that with a couple broken ribs and a loss. He seemed gassed out in round 2 probably because he couldnt breathe. Im not sure if that last kick did it, or if he just couldnt hide it anymore. Good fight though.
that was a beat down….
I love to see a good back and forth slug fest, but it didnt seem like either of these guys could crack an egg. They would do well to train with a (top notch) boxing coach. Check out Saunders tossin the salad at 3:30ish. I agree with Audiorug (haha), but disagree with ShaunT, this guy is not likeable for me, I hate that cocksucking grin. When Dan knocked him on his ass in TUF he grins like its fuckin funny. All that said, nice finish. Very nice.
Wow, was surprised to see Thomas get the crap kicked out of him like that. Welcome to the UFC I guess…
The left kick to the body really ended it
After that he was a bag of cotton balls
got em’ !!
i think ben maybe baited him with that kimura. good gracie barra jits
If Bruce Lee was alive he would be embarrassed with such poor stand up performance of the Jeet Kune Do guy
he was done way before the arm bar. He was staggered by the left kick to the ribs. Head shots you can shake off but shots to the body hurts like hell.
Yep yep @ ACOSTA….probably he just needed a little conditioning….no Jeet Kune Do will ever make those less exceptional hand strikes and stand ups…
