Credeur wasn't as impressive as both teams seem to think he is. Against Riddle he got taken down AND mounted easily. Sure, Riddle is strong, that's why he was able to pivot and reverse Credeur's takedowns as well as assert his own. But as a "seasoned" jujitsu fighter, Credeur was having a noticeably tough time defending the takedown, plus his standup wasn't going anywhere. The rest of Rampage's team noticed this.
Wait and watch, Credeur's going to get his block knocked off. AND, if you guys noticed, once Rampage began shouting at Riddle to let Credeur stand up, Riddle was TRYING to untangle himself but his hands were tied up and his legs were tangled up too. I think Riddle was fighting out of instinct but in all fairness, he looked like he was disengaging like Rampage was telling him to.
