for this couch Warrior podcast short I'll be breaking down Isaac Del Garen versus Brandon marote for UFC Vegas 97 look I mean the lines the way it is for a reason that said I think that marote isn't as bad as people are making him out to be he's a relatively young guy with good striking training out of a good camp in New England cartel and I don't think he's that bad the issue is though in this fight that his takedown defense isn't good CU I actually think he's the better Striker I don't like dolgan striking whatsoever I think he's a fish out of water on the feet I think that he's sloppy I think he's hitable and I do think marote is a better Striker he's pretty clean and he's got good output but I don't think he can defend the takedowns dogan's a fantastic wrestler and once he's on top he's an absolute Menace nasty ground and pound I think he takes down marote and either finishes him in the first or second round so yeah it's still garan for me surprise surprise
