A detailed analysis of Josh Emmett's performance at UFC 327 notes that while his aggressive, reckless style helped him defeat Curtis Blaydes, it could prove disastrous against elite strikers like Alex Pereira or Sergei Pavlovich. The piece observes that Emmett is hitting harder than ever and maintained power even in the exhausting third round, while also showing improved variety with elbow strikes and strong takedown defense. The analysis suggests Emmett's deviant, bloody fighting style - complete with middle fingers in the cage - perfectly aligns with Donald Trump and Dana White's preferences but doesn't match the typically measured approach of his coaches Jackson and Winkeljohn. Regarding the upcoming White House fight against Derrick Lewis, the author fears Lewis may prioritize money and avoiding damage over actually winning.
