Lyle Beerbohm Not Afraid of Shinya Aoki's Ground Game

Filed under:

In a way, Lyle Beerbohm is relieved. For nearly four years he walked around with an unblemished professional record, and the more fights he won the more people wanted to talk about it. It became a recurring question in interviews, and the pressure only grew.

After all, it wasn't like he could become more perfect with each successive win. Being undefeated meant Beerbohm always had a little more to lose than to gain. That is, until he lost a unanimous decision to Pat Healy in the main event of a Strikeforce Challengers show in February, and then suddenly it was like a weight had been lifted.

"I think my friends and family took it worse than I did," said Beerbohm. "I know how it is in MMA. I know how easy it is to get caught and to get knocked out or submitted. I knew it was probably a matter of time. But my friends and family, they don't know as much about MMA so they couldn't believe I lost."
