If Jamahal could box even a little, I might forgive him

its time to admit once and for all that we are a dogshit country run by dogshit people who are cheered on by dogshit people. to the extent there are many people who actually aren't dogshit, not only dont they matter at all, they are actively the enemy

I couldn't believe Khalil felt the need to explain himself to him. Even Herb Dean was like, "enough, don't have this conversation in front of me"

an astoundingly bad showing from former UFC champion Jamahal Hill.

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Why does Hill keep reacting to Rountree's feints when he can't defend the actual strikes anyway. Just throw punches you lummox

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
if you didn't know better, you'd think Hill came into this fight with no idea that Rountree was gonna kick his legs

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
If Rountree can sell the low kick when Hill's in southpaw, he could catch him stepping out of stance with a big punch

Bahamondes starting to do some good work behind his feints. Fiziev hanging back looking to counter, getting surprised now

Blaydes' striking continues to have no relationship to his wrestling game. Worse, perhaps, when he does get stuck striking he's got no process whatsoever. Guy has a genuinely good jab, and no idea how to win a fight with it

Really not bad as far as heavyweight fights go. Even if he doesn't get the win, Kuniev just had a strong performance against a perennially ranked big boy

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Again Blaydes fires the jab and stops Kuniev in his tracks. He's got no confidence in it though. It's like he lands the jab and immediately thinks "What else?!" Just keep the stick on him, man!

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Why Blaydes hasn't tried to shoot under that right hand once is beyond me. He's getting stuck now, not using his jab nearly enough. Can't figure out how to set up a shot
040 4
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
If Blaydes just sticks to that jab he'll completely avoid a lot of the dangerous left hands Kuniev has been sending his way. Man keeps trying to mix it up when he really doesn't have to

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Just waiting for Blaydes to get into trouble, but so far he's striking pretty well. Used the level change to score a stiff up-jab a moment ago

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Instant takedown for Blaydes, but Kuniev did a good job getting back to his feet. How many times can he do that, though

We need American fighters to start donning culturally significant hats when they win. What about Rountree and Hill. What would be the hats for Vegas and Grand Rapids, Michigan

I like him too. That Rebecki loss is worrying though. Needs a whole lot more depth to his striking if he's gonna beat anyone he can't consistently outwrestle

Musayev kept clinging to that headlock. Orolbai simply grabbed the wrist, stripped the lock away, and ripped his arm off
150 5
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
A nice counter right landed by Musayev, but Orolbai comes straight back in, catches a kick and finishes with a knee tap/punch combo. Straight to side control, straight to the kimura. That's that
020 2
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Two things that set UFC competition apart from most other orgs: size relative to weight class, and pace. Expectation here was that Musayev would not be prepared to handle Orolbai's UFC-tier pace, and so far that's looking like an accurate call

Phenomenal brawl. Sadykhov gets it down with a four punch combination, dropping off to the left as he puts a short right hook through Motta's chin. Oof
060 6
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Insane first round. Sadykhov needs to keep this at range, rely on his kicks and his straight shots. Motta is an animal in the pocket, but he's lost at distance

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
These are not bad fighters, but this has been a shit fight. Neither guy has shown any real ability to implement a winning strategy. Flat line, all the way through

King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Naimov is a faster, harder hitting, more accurate striker. But time and again he lets Grad close the distance and pin him to the fence because he's got no jab, and responds to every threat by leaping straight back Not good

Ulanbekov coming back like a madman in the final 30 seconds! Clinch elbows! 1-2-1-2 combos right in the pocket! What a finish to a damn good fight!

Some savage short shots from Maksum in the clinch! Uppercut picks up Ulanbekov's chin, left hook snaps it off
020 2
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Ulanbekov needs to forget the wrestling. It's only tiring him out, and he's been plenty effective at range. Problem is, I think the shot transition is fully built into his punching mechanics
020 2
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Maksum is using his jab well, though. If you're built to be a rote puncher, the least you can do is keep that jab working
020 2
King Typo @kingtypo.bsky.social · 21/06/2025
Maksum a much more mechanical puncher than Ulanbekov. Keeps overshooting and running into counters. Tagir's just reading his rhythm and sneaking in between the beats

Heavy Hands listeners: it looks like there won't be an episode this week. A power surge seems to have killed my computer. I'll get to replacing whatever I need to and hopefully the pod will be back next week. Sorry everyone!

The show also finds the premise of a mob boss going to therapy to be ridiculous. Tony's therapist ultimately realizes she has been enabling a sociopath. In fact there's one scene where a therapist explicitly refuses to blow smoke up a mobster's ass, and it's one of the best youtu.be/bzVeLjj6Ao8?...
