Lutter is over-rated and under motivated. I could careless if I ever see him fight again.
I think it's not he almost won. It's he put himself in the dominate position you can achieve in BJJ IMO. It's a position that can rain down enormous damage to the fighter on the bottom. I guess that the angle I'm looking at. He took A.S. down and Rich and improved his position and got mount. Thats saying something when it's against them two. Thats nice BJJ. Now his finishing/ cardio... Yeah it's seems to have been poor. I'm not Lutter fan personally. But love to watch a slick ground game. The Diaz brother's come to mind.
