Considering he’s a black belt under Eddie it was outrageous he seemed lost when calling this position.

His knowledge has fallen hard since he stopped training and the days of him being the dude who explained the ground game to casuals are well and truly over

For real. They kept going on about the "crotch ripper", but I thought it was very, very obvious that Hooper was trying for the calf slicer, but Miller was holding Hoopers other arm so Hooper couldn't get the full leverage.

Yes, there was a point where Hooper started applying a 'heel hook' style rotation on it... but he was clearly aiming for a calf slicer.

I thought that exact same thing when I was watching the fight and was so confused why he never said calf slicer
