After Ellenberger's loss to Rory MacDonald, he made the worst decision of his life and went to train at Glendale Fighting Club with Edmond Tarverdyan. Under Edmond's tutelage, Jake's striking regressed to the point where he started taking the worst beatings in his MMA career. IMO under Edmond's training, that's where Jake got his chin cracked. By the time he realized his mistake and went back to Kings MMA under Rafael Cordeiro, the damage was done and his fate already sealed.

While he has the skills to be competitive, he won't be a champion and that chin is super suspect in every fight that he's in. I don't know whether he should retire at this point, but if I were him I would take a long look at myself and consider his options.
 
Edmund yelled "good head movement" at his TV when Ellenberger took that elbow.
 
He wasn't this level of shit until he went to Edmund. Dude ruined his career.

Seems like at the guys with Edmund are cucks, and the MMA gods are punishing them for their cuck mentality.

I still remember ellenberger saying Ronda would beat bantamweight men. Fuck im'.

I think getting hit in the face for years has done him no favors more than whatever.

Obviously. But why is getting hit so badly this often in the last 3-4 years of his career?
 
It sucks to see the fall of Jake. Edmond really messed him up. I was hoping the Brown win was the beginning of a resurgence but it's obviously not the case.

At this point, he should probably retire or else he'll continue to take beatdowns.
 
I see CM Punk doing bad things to Jacob Ellenberger if they fought.
 
His TKO loss to Martin Kampmann broke his confidence and either Lawler or Thompson broke his chin.

I think he should retire.

I agree entirely. Sad thing is that he looked pretty good in round 1 and is still improving, but the chin isn't there

He did look good in the first round; selective in his shots, switching his stance, using his wrestling, pacing himself, and being defensively responsible. But once he got hit cleanly in the 2nd, he lost his composure, and that chin can't take shots anymore.

What is with these nerds who think that calling people 'cucks' is tough? They sound like a bunch of ultra suppressed homosexuals. Come out of the closet already.
