No doubt Usman would make quick work of him I think.
We would also likely see Usman going with more wrestling in that fight.
Askren is probably my favorite fighter, but it's obvious he wasn't currently a top 5 fighter. His striking is just too far off.
Still bothers me that people tried taking away his win against Lawler. That bulldog choke was inescapable, you saw the arm go limp, and he still had almost 2 minutes left to crank it. Lol. Unbelievable.
That lawler fight sold me on askren, the loss did not change that, anyone can get cracked in the face by a knee when hyper focused.
To be honest none of these sub 40 second knockouts impress me, because it can happen to anyone, is conor a better fighter than aldo? Not in my books, aldo defended his title, conor only rematches when he loses and never defends anything.
If conor thought he was a better fighter than eddie or aldo he would have proved it by giving them a rematch.
In fact i think EVERY champion should get a rematch clause period.
