Tachi Palace Fights 7 - Jorge Oliveira vs James Irvin

For the life of us, we can’t figure out why James Irvin hesitates after he throws the right at Jorge Oliveira. He, well, lingers – hesitates – thinks about it for a second too long and whamo! He’s screwed.

James Irvin came on the MMA scene a few years back, hit a few guys in the UFC and looked like he had promise. But something happened and no one really knows what – but his potential was never realized.

The mental game is the hardest but it’s also the one that pays off – inside the cage and inside of life.

Whatever the issues, we’d like to see Irvin crack at it a couple more times. And congrats to Oliveira. Nice way to win.
