Chiek Kongo = Bob Sapp 2.0


L4D

Recommended Posts

Cheick* He is big and scarey but has a huge lack of skill and refuses to improve on them... i mean granted cheik kongo is a bit more skilled than bob sapp, which is why he earned the 2.0 thing, but if you look at the fight with him against pat barry the punch he gets caught with is very similar to the punch frank mir caught him with... and mir had the punch planned out, yet kongo still hasnt fixed that hole in his game.. call me crazy but i think kongo came in to the ufc washed up...

Kongo may never be UFC champ, but with 9 wins in his UFC career he makes for a pretty effective gatekeeper. Sapp was never even that. He's just a freak show who regularly gets beat up by guys over 100lbs smaller than him, which is why his career has been mostly in Japan. They love that stuff over there.

i did say bob sap 2.0 which means he would be an upgrade from the original so yes he is better but he is similar in the fact that he is intimidating yet cant fight and doesnt improve

 

I disagree. Kongo clearly can fight. He's entered the Octagon 14 times and gotten his hand raised in nine of those. He has also improved his wrestling by leaps and bounds. When he first came in he would get dominated on the ground all the time. He's no Cain Velazquez on the ground, but to say he hasn't improved that aspect of his game is cutting him short.
