The thing that turned me off about him was the fact that he would not engage Diego in that fight. I can understand trying to avoid his takedowns and all, but if you're going to stay on opposite sides of the ring from the guy...why even fight? You got to engage him to beat him at some point. I read his credentials a few posts earlier, but I'm still not impressed with his BJJ either. Maybe it was nerves or the pressure of television or something. A good BJJ fighter could've defended himself after he got grounded. Kenny acted like he didn't know what to do when Diego took him down. It was reminiscent of the old UFC tourney days when the wrestlers took the strikers down...once they were off their feet they got smoked...and that's what Kenny looked like too.
