I Meticulously Analysed My Fight With Movsar

A proper deep dive into my fight with Movsar Evloev, alongside the boys from Fight Lab and Fight Lounge 👊 We’re trying something new on the channel with a podcast-style breakdown, giving us more time to get into the details. We talk through the game plan, what I was seeing and thinking inside the Octagon, and the decisions behind the key exchanges and the finish. I want to give you a better understanding of why I do certain things in there, how I read what’s in front of me and how those little details come together over the course of a fight. Massive thanks to Fight Lab for the chat and for putting together the graphics and editing for this episode. A lot of work went into bringing this one to life, so go show the boys some love: @officialfightlab @fightloungepodcast Let me know what you think of this format in the comments and whether you’d like to see more breakdowns like this. Appreciate the support as always!
