  1. Love Robocop glad he’s getting some shine, great person and an amazing fighter with top 10 potential for sure. Good on him for learning English so quick too, fighters who don’t speak English don’t have too and sometimes never learn it like Shogun, but it’ll help his career too

  2. Wish Robocop would get fast tracked the way Alex was. If anybody oughta. An exciting guy like that who can knock you out on the feet or sub you on the ground and on top of that is a great guy that properly reps this sport. One of the very few genuinely cool guys in UFC probably.

    If Izzy could almost KO Alex then Robocop will break his jaw or something.

    But it's best this way. Not to rush. That way he can truly earn it at the right time when he's ready and there be no doubt.

  3. "If I'm just one percent of the father you were to me to my daughter, then I will be a great father". Such a humble, genuine man, wish him all the best success in life and the UFC.

  4. Wow! Ufc or who ever needs to put more stuff out like this. What a story what a man! I love watching stuff like this. I cried like a baby but I think we need to see more of fighters stories.

  5. Unfortunately Gregory got knocked out. He was in another slugfest and that was his downfall. He has so much in his toolbox and he keeps getting into these slugfests perhaps to please the fans. All he needs to do is take them to the ground and submit them. He's better than 95% of the fighters there. He also needs some defense: head movement, lateral movement, guards up always, and learn to roll with the punches. Distance control. He looks like a world beater and has a great physique. But he needs to put it all together for his striking game to work. He's showing so much wear and tear so young in his career because of his fighting style. Stop trying to please the fans. These slugfests will only shorten your career. You have a great Judo base: take them to the ground. Train with striking coaches that teaches you how to roll with the punches, move your head and body, and learn some footwork and distance control. Power does not always work if you cannot connect.
