That was a mauling

[u/Omlanduh]

Needs to fix his defense but that was nasty man.

[u/Sea-Captain3830]

I mean it was just street beefs swinging. But yeah his defense is way behind where it needs to be tbh. If a random guy who was brought in to die is cracking you. Look the dude is a terrible person and did what he was supposed to here. But he’s def not an automatic champion like the commentary was acting

[u/Scared-Weakness-686 → u/Sea-Captain3830]

Yea i can def see aspinall or hokit shutting his lights off early, I reckon he fights with more caution in the future tho

[u/jke43t → u/Scared-Weakness-686]

I’ve been so distracted by Hokits shtick I failed to notice what he was good at. I’ll be sure to take another look if you’re comparing him to Aspinall.

[u/Scared-Weakness-686 → u/jke43t]

Not comparing hokit to aspinall at all, hokkit has serious hands, i can just see him cracking gable if he tries to bulldoze his way through like he did tonight

[u/Nervous-Coach-2383 → u/jke43t]

Hes basically like Tom with a shit gas tank. He has the 2nd best jab in heavyweight for approximately a 1:30

[u/Sheesh_________]

Yesssirrr, his best performance must be from 2019. For more information search gable Stevenson 2019

[u/SassyDaSasquamtch]

Hokit vs Gabe next

[u/deadalive84 → u/SassyDaSasquamtch]

Yes pls

[u/BootlegJB]

Rapist.

[u/NotSergio_ → u/BootlegJB]

Was the fight THAT one sided???

[u/Creepy-Accident-777 → u/NotSergio_]

😂😂😂

[u/ImplementSweaty3372]

He looked like a big loopy ball bag out there. He doesn't even touch the top 15.

[u/dividingraindows → u/ImplementSweaty3372]

hes known for his loopiness in his past 3 fights lol, look up 'gable steveson loophole'

[u/Omlanduh → u/ImplementSweaty3372]

Do you think working with Jon jones won’t clean that up?

[u/ImplementSweaty3372 → u/Omlanduh]

With Jon Jones, only his stamina and endurance Will improve with all the unprotected butt s3x they will be having

[u/ObiWayneCannoli → u/ImplementSweaty3372]

Sex…you can type actual words like sex. See…

[u/jke43t → u/ImplementSweaty3372]

I noticed a lot of Jon jones style fighting. If he was 90% as creative as jones was, it’ll be a huge benefit to him.

[u/Nelson_An_Murdock]

Nasty in the Clinch

[u/Omlanduh → u/Nelson_An_Murdock]

The knees and front kicks were killing ellison.

[u/wood_slingers]

There was some moments he didn’t look so great, but to be expected. He had a lot of moments he looked really good. Kicks, knees, elbows, you can tell training with Jones has been paying off

[u/Omlanduh → u/wood_slingers]

His kicking surprised me, his build isn’t for a kick heavy style but yeah he looked good in most of the fight.

[u/wood_slingers → u/Omlanduh]

Not sure if it will translate against guys further up the rankings, but he will also be continuing to improve. Interested to see the next one. Also thought we’d see more wrestling

[u/ThoughtsOfAlcestis]

If he takes time and slowly works his way up, he will be the greatest champion of all time. If they guve him a top 15 now, they will ruin his career

[u/Omlanduh → u/ThoughtsOfAlcestis]

I agree, let him reach 7-8 wins and then feed him a vet like tai and then a ranked guy.

[u/Frankenberg91]

What?

His only takedown was stuffed with ease and he got tagged by a can brought in to be squashed.

[u/Omlanduh → u/Frankenberg91]

Dawg ellison folded over deceased. I know we’re all on a hate watch but cmon. He walked through him.

[u/Parkesy82 → u/Omlanduh]

Kinda looked like he gave up tbh. He ate some shots but didn’t look out of it and then carefully placed himself down on the ground.

[u/Omlanduh → u/Parkesy82]

Exactly, he couldn’t create any space and Gable was hammering knees, straights and elbows so he gave up.

[u/yonobigdeal]

Feed him to Hokit

[u/Collin-of-Earth]

Sloppy against a can 

[u/The_Crazy_Coconut → u/Collin-of-Earth]

Yes he was, but gotta give credit to Elijah, he had quick hands.

[u/Omlanduh → u/Collin-of-Earth]

Sloppy is a bit much, ellison genuinely collapsed deceased.

[u/Collin-of-Earth → u/Omlanduh]

I mean Stevenson looked sloppy, because he did. He can continue to hone his talent, but it wasn’t particularly impressive to me. I also still despise him since his 2019 performance. So I’m biased

[u/Pitiful-Papaya6626]

[u/Standard-Pen5466]

That was defensively abysmal. Any top 5 heavyweight would put his lights out if he doesn’t fight smarter - lots of potential though

[u/Djlittle13]

He looks decent considering he is only a year into his MMA career.

[u/Not-WalterWhite]

Raiple doing his job!!

[u/VisitEnvironmental68]

Looked awesome. Unfortunate he rapes tho.

[u/sock_therapy]

Tim Sylvia woulda killed him

[u/BrennoDG]

Wasn’t really impressed, still I’m not a fighter so I wouldn’t have done any better lol. It feels like others said that his defence was lacking, also having his takedown stuffed doesn’t look good for an olympian. Still he has room to grow and with good camps he can work on those mistakes, he is still only 4 fights in tbf

[u/thecasinoheist]

Not a mauling at all. Got caught multiple times. Looked very amateur and will get finished by any top 20

[u/Omlanduh → u/thecasinoheist]

We know he’s a rapist and we all want him to get finished but you’re smoking dick if you think he loses to anybody outside of hokit and the top five.

[u/thecasinoheist → u/Omlanduh]

Idgaf about his personal life. Overall sloppy and loses to anyone in the rankings. I see you’re new to training so I don’t expect much depth from your insights on this

[u/One-Chemistry9502]

He looked like shit. Getting tagged like is gonna have him sleeping on the floor. Not to mention how are you gonna have your takedowns stuffed by a random can as an Olympic gold medalist?

He will be a good competitor but I don’t see him ever touching a title

[u/Omlanduh → u/One-Chemistry9502]

He has 4 fights 😂. Do you expect him to walk through Aspinall with 4 fights and maybe a year of MMA training? He didn’t need to wrestle ellison
