Clint MacLeanHOST
And people are talking about some grappling mistakes he made against Shamrock.
Clint MacLeanHOST
But then you go back and watch the next fight where he got a massive step up in competition against Mike Davis.
Clint MacLeanHOST
And he owned Mike Davis.
Clint MacLeanHOST
Like, guys, he out hustled and owned Mike Beast Boy Davis.
Clint MacLeanHOST
in that last fight.
Clint MacLeanHOST
Like I don't care what he did wrong in the sham rock fight.
Clint MacLeanHOST
He corrected it and he beat somebody who would have iced sham rock.
Clint MacLeanHOST
Mike Davis would tie sham rock into a pretzel.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
Aliyev owes me one.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
His last fight against Mike Davis, all he did was get on top and control Mike Davis.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
He did no damage whatsoever.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
And now he's going to get a grappler from the states that's been in with better and has more experience.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
Because if we remember, I think it was a numbered card the last Abu Dhabi.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
And I had Aliyev's opponent, Mike Davis.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
Mike Davis is going to take a tremendous effort to beat Mike Davis that day.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
And Aliyev beat him by taking him down and controlling him on the canvas and not letting him strike at all.
Lou FinocchiaroGUEST
Aliyev did no damage, but he had control.
Jed MeshewHOST
Alley of 4-0 in the UFC.
Jed MeshewHOST
A unanimous decision went over Mike Davis, where I think he landed 10 total strikes.
Jed MeshewHOST
Mike Davis said things that I don't agree with, but also his primary point was... that aliev was not fighting him and there's an argument to that um i love this matchup even if it probably won't deliver super excited like excitement because dawson is basically the great filter at uh 155 pounds if you can beat grant dawson you are a top 15 guy and if you cannot You are not.
Jed MeshewHOST
And Dawson has the experience, but this is going to be a grappling contest, right? And is he capable enough to compete with Aliyev in that? Aliyev is a very good control grappler.
Jed MeshewHOST
I think Dawson's a little bit better at creating scrambles.
Zach RugerHOST
Rafael Alves, Joe Selecki, Shem Rock.
Zach RugerHOST
Most recently, in July, defeated Mike Davis.
Zach RugerHOST
But just a very boring style.
Zach RugerHOST
And I'll be honest, this fight is going to be very pro, or this crowd will be very pro to Rulev.
Zach RugerHOST
have
Zach RugerHOST
ever gotten.
Zach RugerHOST
It's actually crazy to think Nerulo Alayev got a knockout on the Contender Series, but as much as I like that he's an underdog, I watched him kind of beat Mike Davis with ease, but also like not do it in an impressive fashion.
Zach RugerHOST
So I'm high on Grant Dawson, and I just think his grappling is superior to Nerulo Alayev.
Mike HeckHOST
Czech Congo, Karatanov, Collard Pettis, Daley Hamasi, Ponzinibbio, Miguel Baeza.
Jose YoungsPANELIST
So I think that was like, I think Mike Davis fought.
Jose YoungsPANELIST
uh mason jones that year too which is like an underrated banger too
Mike HeckHOST
oh yes yes on
SeanHOST
That's my biggest issue.
SeanHOST
Like his last two wins are against Mike Davis.
SeanHOST
And then he also beat Shemrock, which no offense to Shemrock, but I don't think he's in the UFC anymore.
SeanHOST
But the only time that Aliyev has actually finished someone in the UFC was on his contender series when he knocked out the guy to get the contract.
SeanHOST
But I mean, he hasn't really done anything like that since then.
SeanHOST
I mean, even Mike Davis, he had so many opportunities to potentially submit Mike Davis, you know, and he just didn't take those opportunities.
SeanHOST
One thing that Grant Dawson does do is try to look for the finish.
SeanHOST
So, I mean, I can see him getting a submission.
