But just like they do to the TUF winners. They feed them very, very winnable fights for a couple of years or so. They are doing the same to Lister. You could teach a blind zoo monkey to strike if you gave them 2 or 3 years to do so while building them up as a MMA fighter Sorry for double post. But just like they do to the TUF winners.

I am sure he is one of the BEST grapplers in the world, PERIOD. But this is mma fighting. He will get his ass handed to him again if he fights someone that can strike and has decent takedown defense. Dean can not fight, he can grapple. But this is mma FIGHTING, fighting being the key word. Dean is NOT a fighter, he is a grappler, and is as simple as that. After Marquete beat the piss out of him for 3 rounds, why do you think the UFC is gave him Jordan who CANT STRIKE either(he is the one Drew McFedries nearly killed). They will continue to match him against ANYONE that is old and over the hill AND/OR is NOT a DECENT STRIKER!!!!! If I wanted to watch a submission grappling match, I would watch them. Therefore I have no interest in watching Lister unless he is fighting a striker that is going to give him a beatdown. I have no interest in watching a guy try to take the other's back for 15 minutes.

He did handle Radev no problem, though. And since he clearly did some sort of interview with this site, why wouldn't he read it? Fair enough, mmacoach. He did handle Radev no problem, though.

I meant the part about the wrestler not wanting to go to the ground with him. With all of his experience, he should be able to handle a pure wrestler on his feet no problem. I respect Dean Lister. I actually meant it as a motivator. He doesn't read this site anyway... I really wasn't meaning it derogatorily. I hope he works horn. I believe that jits has a legitimate (and very dominating) place in MMA even though most fans hate the fight once it hits the mat. He wasn’t crying.

It isn't that hard to get your hands pretty good if you are already athletic enough to excel to the top of the BJJ food chain. How would you fight you? You'd stand up too. Go train with Greco-Roman champs, Judo champs, whatever it takes. There's no crying in MMA bro, you know that! Hey Dean, then stick to Jits… if you can’t improve on your feet, hang up your MMA hat.

Wow, you should be an MMA trainer. Not only are you insightful, you're also a great motivator! “Then train more on your feet, wtf?”
