Costas Philippou: Loses To Gegard Mousasi Saturday
Philippou lost to Gegard Mousasi by unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Manila.
ANALYSIS
Philippou has some of the biggest power in the middleweight division, but his opponents have figured out that the rest of his game is very weak and they are refusing to get into boxing matches with him. Philippou was unable to do anything off of his back and he made virtually no effort to get back to the effort after Mousasi took him down. Unless he works on his takedown defense and wrestling, Philippou stands no chance against the better middleweights in the division. He has dropped three of his last four bouts.
