Yager's not bad, but he needs to realize he hasn't had any real competition yet, he'll be humbled very fast  ;)

He telegraphs the hell out of all his kicks,  a Top grappler would put him on his ass and maul him.

if he has a basis in capoeira, then yeah, capoeiristas tend to do that because of the movements. There is more focus on evasiveness than actual "fuck you up" moves.

Thanks for the youtube post... wow..that was brutal, the guy gassed himself out doing all those jump kicks and roundhouses... by the 2nd round he couldn't even put his hands up to guard his face.

Though in Yager's defense the white dude was horrible, he spent half the time swinging wildly with haymakers...

really bad fighter.

Even when was gassing, he kept doing those jumping, high-energy expenditure moves. It's just lack of experience.

That said, I thought Tito was out of line, saying the guy quit. He was done. Had he gone out, the fight would've been over in 10 seconds.

Tito was especially hypocritical, considering that he, himself, had just backed out of a fight under questionable circumstances. Either he's bullshiting about the severity of the injury or he did know and still went on the show just for self-promotion.

First of all, Yager absolutely quit.  He didn't come out after the bell.  That is the definition of quitting.  Tito had every right to be upset.  If anyone was out of line, it was Liddell.  Did you hear his comments?

By the way, Tito just had major surgery.  There is a video of the operation on Youtube.  So, much for your "questionable circumstances".
