Next Level S**t… No One Survived Even a Round Against Him - Bo Nickal

Спорт

Even in the talent-rich world of MMA, Bo Nickal is a real standout. A long-time folkstyle wrestler of the highest caliber, he discovered devastating power in his hands upon transitioning to MMA, dusting off every single opponent inside a round. It’s time to follow the footsteps of this ambitious fighter, who is now hailed as the biggest rising star in the UFC.

    Started wrestling at the age of 5. That there is the reason he is so good. So many times i see people saying "mountain genetics" when talking about Dagestanis disregarding the fact that they like Bo have been training their entire life.

I then, very aggressively told those shady tatt wearers to back up and don't even think about it. They immediately backed up and walked away, it was a week later that i realized it WAS Bo putting his baby in the backseat. He had NO CLUE this TRUE event even happened, my point is that i'm SO GLAD i was there at that very moment !! Best wishes to you and yours and stay safe out there.

    Part of that was marketing and making sure that he was getting the attention of Dana White. He's not just a fighter. This is his job. And in this line of work, challenging other people explicitly is one way to get more work (i.e., fights). It has been done that way for a long time in different fighting sports. Calling out the next guy you want, etc. Sounds dumb, but that's how they do it. People who watch this are watching people trying to kick the crap out of others. But if they say, "I'm better than you," they get all annoyed like the guy should be humbler. It's weird. haha

    He's great, without a doubt...but he's also the perfect example of stat-padding in the UFC. They clearly know what they have in him as a contender, but it just reminds me of boxing and I can't help but to mention it.

    He fought a 7-0 guy in his 3rd pro fight. That's not stat-padding. Almost all ufc fighters had easier opponents for their 3rd mma bout. Not even talking about Khabib lol

    @@ozguraydn8407 Check Alex Pereira, his 3rd fight was Sean Strickland and his 4th fight was a title fight.

    The guy is only a few years into his fighting career and already fighting UFC level talent. Not sure you understand what stat padding actually is.
