It's time that people realize that Janssen is all about "show" and little substance when fighting a legitimate opponent. All the histrionics, waving away the linesmen etc. are all part of the act, but it doesn't translate into a good fighter. Watch him hold on and then throw one or two ineffective punches near the end will not steal the verdict from informed observers. Other enforcers have seemed to have caught on to his act and pile up the points early in the bout to the point where his finish is irrelevant.

janssen waits too long to try and get the KO punch like usual, at least belak tried to make it a fight instead of a grapple

Belak like to hug and hold, Cam wants to fight him.

These two spent more time worrying about getting hit, than they spent throwing punches.
