But yeah Lawler couldnt handle that Usada fueled punch![]()
Except a few guys like pre USADA Lawler. Remember that guy? He had an iron head.
If you can get a comment from Woodley and Wonderboy on this too, ask what they think about your suggestion that Pettis was probably on roids.Pretty sure Woodley would deride you for it and Wonderboy would calmly correct you that was just tma genius. If we're just basing truth on what those 1-2 fighter's think.
Lawler never ate a punch anywhere near as hard as the one Tyron landed on him. I dont know why thats so hard for u to grasp. Tyron has also said he used something Nick Diaz did extremely well to Ko Robbie has been Kod by a perfect right hook before too. He also said on Mma hour that due to how Robbies head is shaped he can take strikes head on those type of volume patty cake strikes he sees coming but ppl cant take those powerful, speed drive shots that cover a ton of distance and hit the chin like he did. He said Robbies never been hit like that which is true. Carlos and Rory arent even capable of punching as hard as Woodley at his best. Hendricks is but he lost his power last couple years for some reason..........Usada prolly has a bit to do with it but Hendricks also relied on closing a large amount of distance quickly for the Fitch and Kampmann Kos. He hasnt been able to do that against the Condits, Robbies, Browns, Kelvins etc.
Tyron trains at Roufus now naturally he would support Pettis.
I mean i just rewatched Pettis/Lauzon and Pettis/Cerrone and i couldnt believe how different that guy looked from the version who fought Barboza.
Even comparing Pettis/Stephens and Pettis/Alvarez similar style fights he lost alot of explosiveness and speed.
He looked great against Gilbert, dropped him multiple times and became the only guy to finish him. Got murked by Rda (suffered an orbital injury) and then had an elbow injury pulling out from Jury fight. Not two things (eye and elbow) that should affect the clear decline in his speed and athleticism. After he returned he hasnt looked so good under Usada. He slowed down alot in the last round against Barboza and Eddie, this a guy who was kicking ppl off the cage in round 5 after a war. Even against Rda he simply lost to a superior fighter and was at least trying in the last round and never slowed down that hard.
I know Pettis is one of ur fave fighters and u seem to have a selective bias as far as Usada suspicion goes (not suspecting Erick Silva of all ppl is hilarious) but its very suspicious.
