Message: [QUOTE="pennywisealfie, post: 2791320, member: 1813"] It's pretty well recognized that Tarverdyan is a shit coach. There was once a pretty decent Australian fighter, whose name is George Sotiropoulos and he had elite level BJJ. During his run of 9 straight UFC wins, he was putting on some awesome ground displays. There was a lot of talk about George being very close to a title shot. He then came up against Dennis Siver who was thought of as not in George' league at the time, Dennis' strength was his stand up. George never attempted to take him to the ground where he is elite, but decided to trade punches the entire fight. George lost. Next match he did the exact same thing and got knocked out and what do you know, he did it a 3rd time. The ego is a killer in MMA. When you keep winning, I assume you would feel invincible and you don't want all the standup work you do in the gym to be for nothing. But ffs Ronda, you got lucky with Bethe and I could only imagine it was a mix of bad coaching and ego that made her want to try to trade with Holly & Amanda. Just go for the armbar! With that said, it's great to see WMMA evolving the way that it is. Amanda Nunes is going to be fun to watch. Imagine if they can arrange Nunes vs Cyborg! [/QUOTE]
