Watch how Daniel Cormier uses a single leg takedown and ground-and-pound to defeat Volkan Oezdemir in their fight. A breakdown of DC’s technique and finish.
I cannot imagine a man of that girth being on top of me just hammering my face lol. Like DC isn’t the tallest dude but he looks HEAVY as fuck when he’s on top rarely did anyone ever get out of that once he got to work on the ground.
He couldn't hit the back of the head on that single leg because it's rightfully against the rules, but it makes you wonder if it would be a bad move to do it in a street fight.
Why can ppl not stop calling it a single leg with the head outside… it’s a fkn hi c HIGH CROTCH… a lot less words and describes it better. Head inside IS a single leg head outside IS high c
Dc was one of the goats. Just like with Islam and volk if there wasn’t an Islam volk would’ve been the best. Same with dc and jones. The fights even played out the same. Had some competition in the 1st fight then the 2nd head kick ko. It’s like the same exact thing almost. Crazy
I remember DC saying “There’s levels to this” before the fight. I was like why are you being so arrogant bro ? Half way through the first round, I understood 😅
If DC can go toe to toe with Jon Bones Jones and survive then i think he can take on Alex P. DC has all of the same attributes as Alex but is a bit stronger in my opinion. And a much better wrestler than Alex all i ever see Alex do is stand upright the entire fight. And kicks you to death until he tires you out or let the opponent tire themselves out. Then he goes in for the kill with wicked head shots and the fight is over. DC will be there every round with Alex until he gets his opening for a takedown then ground and pound time.
I did this in highschool cause my best mate switched up and started bullying me , i felt so bad for him becuase we were street fighting and he landed on the street , i rember holding my punches back because i trapped both his arms under my knees and i had full access to his face with my fist , i was just punching him lightly , i broke his glasses and busted his lip i remember he slipped out my mount from the back through my legs so i pushed him back down while he was crawling away and a senior ripped me off him , never got bullied like that again.
I’ve been doing jiu jitsu for 5 years and promise you that there was no way ol boy was getting out of that side control on a regular day let alone with DC punching him 😂
DC is a living prove, how good Jon Jones was. We keep forgeting that, becouse Tom Aspinall. Jones is just old, same as Cormier get old. Prime DC even KOed prime Stipe Miocic. DC and Jon Jones are both legends, actually from our Childhood. I remember DC knocking out Antonio Silva in Strikeforce tournament, like it was yesterday 🙂 But it was like 15 years ago :)))

Alex Pereira vs Prime DC at Lightheavyweight!!
Who gets it done?
DC would be the goat if he started sooner

Now show dc getting head kicked and doing circles like a merry go round 😂
Without jones. DC is on Mount Rushmore lol
This was in Boston. I was there. To use a quote DC loves, he showed Volkan there are levels to this
Beautiful
It's called mountain crucifix
You lost me after transition

Dc!
Crucifix
He used to ragdoll and manhandle LHWs and HWs in his Strikeforce days even in his early days in the UFC he was undefeated until he faced Jones.

Now what alex perriera do this anklevev 😂😂😂😂
Yeah DC would smoke Mike Tyson Usyk Bivol in a street fight 10/10 times
Set up fight finishers happen less and less

DC was the real master of eye pokes before Jon.
Before the fight DC said: "There are levels to this game" and boy did he deliver!
He totally trapped that arm by accident.
DC doesnt get the flowers he deserves man hes definitely one of the goats
Take a shot everytime he says “all that type of stuff” lol great video 1 week on SR let’s go
DC was a Crotch sniffer all along. That's why he loves Dagis.
All khanlbib fanboys are hating Pereira in the comment 😂

Crazy how many lhw guys have insane finishes against oezdemir
puting a larger fighter in a crucifix is just mental !
Looks like volks older brother lmao

The Natty GOAT
Fedor does those trips and mounted crucifix too
He’s a much better commentator when Joe Rogan is NOT there. Wish he would just retire and do his podcast he’s holding the sport back
Geniuine question how do u defend once dc lifts the leg?
insane fight iq
DC was a great fighter man really beutiful to watch
Dagistan Style
Imagine acting like a wrestling and mma professor explaining a whole fight sequence but couldn’t get DCs name right 3 seconds into the video 😂
He was pretty merciful once he got him there too respect ✊
Khabib taught DC the use of that trip to perfection! Islam also uses it beautifully!
