Nate didn't make as many mistakes as Sonnon did, I believe going for that guiltine in the first was stupid though, he tired himself out, his biggest mistake was not working on a ground game, if Sonnon fights somebody with a ground game hes gonna get beat.
CHARTChael made alot less mistakes then the #1 contender Nate.. my brother! You know when you fight top contenders it's a major chess game and Chael jumps nates queen and slaughtered him!
NightWolf said:If Chael Sonnon makes a lot of mistakes like he did last night hes going to get tapped out, he made a lot of mistakes, he left his arm dangling so many times, I don't know why Nate didn't try something...Sonnon was doing ground and pound when Nate has head control, that is not a smart thing to do because you will tire yourself out plus thats a dangerous place to be when the guy is a black belt in jiu jutsu and he has head control....although Nate did nothing with that either.
Just because your a black belt in brizilian jiu jutsu means nothing, a ground game is not all about submissions, its about posistions as well, and nate didn't do anything, he had head control from guard and he could have done a lot with that but he chose not to, he just chose to stay on his back with his guard locked up...I seen several times where sonnon could have been submitted but Nate didn't do anything about it.
Yeah but the diffrance between Silva and Nate is...Silva has a ground game, look what happen to Dan Henderson, tried to do the same thing that Sonnon did to Nate, but he ended up getting choked out.
