I'm not denying it's an effective strategy. I think Chuck, Matt, and Rashad are exciting fighters. Chuck goes on the offensive after a "feel out" process, Matt goes for big slams, submissions, and G&Ps, Rashad has great takedowns, standup, slams, and G&Ps while Lyoto just runs the whole fight.
I'm not denying Lyoto's talent. He's an excellent karate practitioner, but karate as a defensive style only is incredibly boring for this sport.
