@GBL1111 and @CanadianOracle

The top guys in MW are basically grapplers with 'OK' striking really. But damn Gastelum's head movement looks slick when he was defending against Weidman's (slow-ass) punches. He have better chance against that suspicious Costa guy than Hendricks had, though Hendricks looked better than I expected in that fight. Gotta give some props to Jackson-Wink camp, but it was too late for Hendricks sadly.

How do you think of 100-men Kumite? Is it look impressive to MMA fans?

On GSP's wrestling overpowering his opponents with better wrestling background, the destruction of Cejudo in a clinch by DJ came in my head too. Cruz was able to take down a lot of his opponents who were mostly more accomplished wrestlers with just his amatuer wrestling background, because he crafted a style around blending offence and defence. Also Maia was considered a BJJ specialist in the Octagon, which I think is not accurate as a whole. He integrated Gn'P in his guard-passing which is why Gunnar was so helpless in their fight, not to mention his solid basic techniques as sometimes simplest stuffs works the best.

I think it is more about what 'fits' in the cage and YOURSELF too. People were just builded differently. Some were powerhouses or brickwalls, others might be glasscannons with slick footwork, but a few might have all these qualities (Sugar Ray Robinson for Boxing imo). So sadly, hard work doesn't prevails everytime :(
