Wrestlers would be even more dominant.

@@donovanchilton5817 True, They could throw knees at their opponent while controling them on the floor which would just be unfair for the person in bottom position who wouldn't be able to properly defend againts them.

That's what caught out DJ. Consciously he knows in ONE Championship downed opponents can take knees to the head, but dazed by the uppercut, he reverted to lizard brain which was programmed in the UFC where downed opponents can't take knees to the head. Thus he left himself wide open for it.

I think Pena had a bigger upset.

@@donovanchilton5817 Rizin would like to talk to you!

Same thing I was thinking

But he never said he forgot, why put words in his mouth just to make excuses? Just accept he loss fair and square

@@justinholland6132 "fair and square" is pushing it. The size difference is crazy and that dude probably isn't even tested

And exposing himself to fighting against disgraced steroid cheats. One Championship, the promotion those go to avoid USADA and all other anti doping commissions.

@@systematik dj is all natural right?

DJ has never won One’s division title, he’s only won a tournament belt.

@@MrBlonde47 Im happy to see people who are actually paying attention to the sport 👍

Why. Because he got beat by lesser opponents? In a lesser organization

@@Fony_turgeson because this opponent is just lucky who the fuck did he fought ?

@@Fony_turgesonif you compare divisions in both UFC & One ….. one fc is superior

UFC was a BJJ promotion. Knees to the head whilst downed woudlnt work well for grapplers

@@mskidi Actually it would. A fighter will just have to stay on their back inviting a guard. Keeping their head low and towards the mat. He got smashed because he tried to get up

@@starcityrc3298 If it was that simple, they wouldnt have made 'em illegal mate.

They're illegal because they're a lot more dangerous to a downed opponent's health. DJ's eyes rolled back instantly...

@@hunterhunter5998 How is that different from any other knockout? Their eyes roll back from a punch too. By the way those single-shot knockouts do less damage than many smaller strikes. There are a lot of neurologists who would like to see boxing go back to bare-knuckle for that reason.

Incredible footwork

Also he is a weight class above 125

@@nerigiron7704 atleast 1, maybe 2

I mean fighting someone who’s 5’3 and you have all the physical advantages I’d imagine that’s something we’d see from time to time

they’re in the same weight class

tragedy of success. each time you win and dominate the opponents keep getting bigger and longer.

Essa luta foi a revanche ne isso

Essa joelhada não foi ilegal ?

@@EstudioInFoco isso que eu queria saber tb, pois ele estava com uma das maos no chão.

It's on 27th isn't it ... I do not follow one ... Who are the best Fighters here ?

That uppercut literally barely even grazed Dj, he ended up slipping

Revenge is sweet

Well well well..

Aged like wine

Sure, if we ignore the fact that they are the same weight on the night... 🙄

@@FaithRox is that confirmed? because they look like 2 weight classes apart here.

@@FaithRox doesn't negate the fact that demetrious is fighting above his normal weight class

@@FaithRox but they quite blatantly are not.

@@shindavid6484 If Moraes was heavier than DJ during the weigh-in, this fight wouldn't even happen. Think of it as something like Jon Jones vs Cormier. If you'll watch their first match, Jones looked A LOT bigger than Cormier, but in terms of weight, they're just as heavy as each other (205 lbs).

Nah man. With a much bigger opponent you want to attack the lead leg first to set up the jab. It's very difficult to fight a guy who is 20lbs bigger and much longer. To start with the jab is very risky. It's better to start with low kicks which keep you out of danger ,)

If a guy has longer reach than you his legs presumably would be too. That means you're still in reach of getting kicked. Beyond that you're also very easily countered with a check which has caused a lot of injuries in the ufc. Also note that throughout the fight his opponent was circling away from him meaning he wasn't in fear of getting hurt as much playing ok the inside since his opponent didn't want to engage as much. Even on a theory level fighting a larger, longer reach opponent dictates you try to work your way in, because your opponent gets free hits on the outside with a longer reach. The jab, when in range, is the least likely to be counted because it's the fastest attack, exposes the least amount of yourself, and can easily be faked.

This was his 4th fight at ONE 🤨

Me personally I feel like if you don’t participate in at least amateur level mma you shouldn’t have a say so on what should be legal, why you wanna see people get hurt even more

What previous fight? They fought twice?

He has a typical physique for many fighters that close to the equator💉👌 ...and the gynecomastia to complement🤷‍♂️

Dj out here fighting giants for us

Reasons why ufc doesn't do it is becuz it'd give wrestlers more of an advantage to be even more dominant! And u kno wrestlers are not what sells so hence why Dana will never change that rule! Wrestlers can just knee tf outta opponents while they're on top in total control!

@@vegetaking1272 as was showcased here right?

Exatamente! 3 membros apoiados no chão. Apesar que eu não concordo com essa regra. Mas deve ser cumprida

No ONE FC é permitido joelhadas em oponentes caídos

You should

@@casuallycovered2437 no u shouldn’t. DJ coulda dropped down to 125 in one if he wanted 🤷🏼‍♂️ but he said he feels better at 135 even if he is fighting bigger people

@@dittyboxing There isn't a 125lb division in ONE

@@jman140692 yes there is… do some research bro 😂

No, kneeing or kicking downed opponents makes the fight more realistic.

Dj hasn't fought in that organization for over five years now keep making excuses all I heard was he would win if he didn't lose

Excuses excuses excuses, he hasn't fought in the ufc for years

Clearly two equal opponents. But Adriano dominated big mouse a Lil bit.

He's like conor. He looks amazing when fighting two weight classes under to dominate. Would love to see him fight guys his own size...

@@DarkOps2442 Bro Conor is 155 at best. He only fought at welterweight arbitrarily. Plus when he was a featherweight it’s not like he was fighting dudes much smaller, just shorter. Here DJ is tiny in comparison.

@@HunterJs2 Conor weigh in like a welterweight and still fought lightweights donald and nate

Petr knee had much more force, just measure the speed, petr even pulled sterlings head into his knee with both hands.
