Pretty sick how Thompson still stands after that flurry. Pudz stands with both feet firmly planted, and he may not be getting his whole body behind the punches, but it’s plenty more than arm punches from the strongest fuckin’ man ever to compete in mma.

That was crazy. Thompson ate about 4 or 5 huge punches with his hands at his waist and was still standing

Pudz is soooo big you can get a kata-gatame choke from the wrong side. Those big muscles worked against him.

I'm looking for the chicken and the rice. Please for you give me the chicken then you come with the rice or then you give me the rice and the chicken, I don't care.

well that’s a colossal disappointment. I was surprised he was beating Thompson on the feet but damn. Talk about lack of ground game.

He should have gotten on top in the first or 2nd min after takin thompson down and used his sheer mass to control thompson. But thompson is a big dude himself and was able to control once Pudz down.

Pudz/Kimbo. BOOK IT.

He didn’t.

Pudz has pillowfists.

He just throws pure arm punches. If you got some hip rotation into those punches he would’ve knocked Thompson cold.

That was fun to watch.

It looked like Thompson was rockin a gut, so I dont know how good of shape he was in, but damn that was awesome. Dropping his hands eating the shots, then moving forward and then throwing. Tough to beat a guy that actually took 3 flush shots in a row like it was nothing. Pudz should train hard core cardio and diet to lose the weight. He could lose 15-20 pounds and still be huge. Anyway, my final thought is the balls on Pudz, no homo. He doesn’t have any real back ground in martial arts, but he’s taking these fights and he’s fighting aggressively. I have to give him incredible props just for that.

I think the main issue with Mariusz is..

Simply the fact that he just has too much muscle and not enough technique. Yes, he has some amature boxing and a green belt in Karate or whatever, but his form is still shit. In what world can a 270lb man punch you in the face 4 times and there not be any kind of damage? Even if they were just arm punches, that is no excuse. Shane Carwin put Gonzaga’s lights out with an arm punch. And Shane is technically a smaller man.

Mariusz is a 1 round fighter without the ability to knock someone his size out. He needs a good camp and LOTS of cardio work to shave off a few pounds of muscle. He will never compete in WSM again so there is no need to be as large as he is anymore. In my opinion he has the potential to be a B-level fighter. A 270lbs can crusher.
