There was never a real wrestling exchange. Sure, on paper Cejudo might be a better wrestler, and? Is TJ not bigger and stronger? Is TJ not the better striker to mix in strikes and takedowns? Is TJ not more powerful?
The difference is TJ is a huge step up in competition for MM compared to Joanna's, tbh.
MM stuffed two takedowns and got back up instantly after being taken down IIRC, plus he murk'd cejudo in the clinch, a clinch is potential filled position for a wrestler
MM is the better "mixer" TJ does have better striking tho
I agree that TJ would beat MM, im just saying MM does have skills
I wasn't comparing MM to TJ I was comparing TJ to Cejudo.
