Elsalvajeloco Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 Rakic survived getting hurt in the first 5 seconds and then survived getting kneed while his hands where on the mat and ref missing it. At this stage as a prospect, we know he is at least tough. Still got a first round stoppage win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 8, 2018 Author Share Posted December 8, 2018 Speaking of camp vs. no camp, I don't think you're going to find better illustrations than Ferreira vs. Nelson. Nelson started out strong and then faded fast after about three minutes. He had no energy really to stop those takedowns (and later trying to stop Ferreira from advancing position) after expending himself early trying to get Ferreira out of there.

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 I scored Theodorou-Anders 28-28 w/ Theodorou winning the first and last round but losing 10-8 in the second round. I guess you need to fully decapitate your opponent to get a 10-8 in Canada. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Theodorou is so fucking awkward. That leaning with his head novice movement... how hasn't he been KO'd clean by now? Like his will to stay active is his greatest strength and it's amazing how far he's gotten with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 Jessica Eye went from the verge of being cut after a series of uneven and tepid performances to now on the doorstep of a UFC title shot. Hell of a career turnaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 That was a good performance from Durinho. He looks like a complete MMA fighter now rather than a BJJ player with okay striking and some power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaedmc Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 First round of Manuwa/Santos, was basically the Avengers vs. Thanos but for reals. Fucking bananananananas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Has there been a round where two technically proficient fighters (non-slobs) throw haymakers like that from start to finish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaedmc Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I'm so glad Manuwa's brain finally stepped in and said "That's enough of this bullshit. We're shutting it down." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Awesome performance from Ansaroff, looking her best ever. Great victory. Incredible wild war while it lasted from Santos/Manuwa! Santos almost nailed a Trouble in Paradise kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 I like how Marreta and Anthony Smith went from solid, respectable middleweights to top level light heavyweights. Can't say I expected that even though I am very familiar with both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted December 9, 2018 Author Share Posted December 9, 2018 That was an insane amount of blood in a short period of time. Oliveira wanted out as soon as he got hit with that elbow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Valentina is dominating at long range and in the clinch unsurprisingly. She's so far been able to avoid mid-range where Joanna could be more effective. She doesn't need head movement when she's not in Joanna's range.

The Natural Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 What a performance by Max Holloway, those combinations. Ortega was busted up. Glad it was stopped. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Holy shit, that was a fucking beating. There's no way Ortega could see ANYTHING coming in during the last half of that round. Best call ever stopping it there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
