Lately most of the new fighters that are coming up are pretty much just ground skill fighters, some of them just know that, they just go for the takedown and try to submit or to ground and pound. Don't get me wrong I like the ground game but if ur going to fight in an orginazation u need to be a well rounded fighter in order to dominate and become an even better fighter after each fight. Come on in my opinion anyone can takedown a guy and try to punch that's easy fr anyone even some kids fighting at school, the real challenge is the stand up, that's much more harder, I just want to see more stand up in the UFC,more well rounded fighters.
