Spong is a fighter who possesses some of the most crisp striking in Muay Thai and Kickboxing. His nickname ‘King of the Ring’ is well-deserved.
I’m really curious how he will make the transition to MMA. Overeem learned how to grapple at a pretty young age, Spong just started grappling recently. I think he trained on the td defense mostly at first. His strengths will always be his punches and kicks.
Spong is a bad dude.
I’ve never seen this guy fight before but I’m gonna look him up some his fights.
