DreamBroken Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Two tough womens fights where I like all involved. Big fan of Sijara but Aspen is my fav so I'll be rooting for her while I always loved Megan and really enjoyed Felicia's Invicta run so it's hard to call.

Big fan of Sijara but Aspen is my fav so I'll be rooting for her while I always loved Megan and really enjoyed Felicia's Invicta run so it's hard to call. I wonder if the best thing to do for 145 is have Amanda drop that belt and the UFC just let whomever lord over the division especially if they can't work out a new deal with Cyborg. I bring that up because with PFL having a 155 division now and being on ESPN, it's not like you're forced to pretend PFL is just something that exists outside the realm of MMA relevance. Why not get folks like Megan Anderson or a Felicia Spencer or if she ever decides to go back up Macy Chiasson over while PFL is trying to get over a Kayla Harrison or Bobbi Jo Dalziel? If you have to put on women's fights over 135 pounds, it would be best to put over the new crop of talent and fresh faces as opposed to just doing them with no rhyme or reason. Also, should PFL go under or Cyborg eventually get back into the mix, you have actual bouts with fighters people actually might have heard of. Plus, you have opportunities to put women's featherweight fights on the Contender series since that's on ESPN+ now too. The UFC is bolstered by the fact they have two unofficial feeder leagues with at least some semblance of synergy in Invicta and PFL back when it was WSOF and basically glorified talent searches like the DWTNCS. Meanwhile, Bellator has made Julia Budd an official resident of Thackerville, Oklahoma as well as MMA purgatory. You can't wait until the next Ronda Rousey or Cris Cyborg shows up. I would love to see the UFC put that same type of energy they have for Maycee Barber into someone (or maybe two people to hedge their bets) at 145 because the window is wide open. Hell, unlike Barber, said person or people is/are not in a division replete with talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 If Ponzi Scheme is dead set on fighting in Uruguay and Luque wants to be in the main event of that card, the natural matchup is that fight. They have twelve consecutive wins between each other and Luque deserves a step up. Felicia Spencer made quick work of Megan Anderson. They may as well find a warm body for her to beat up and put her on the Holloway/Edgar card in Edmonton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted May 19, 2019 Author Share Posted May 19, 2019 That was a war of attrition and Dos Anjos had enough in the tank to take it. Lee was expending too much energy on those takedown attempts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted May 19, 2019 Share Posted May 19, 2019 Veteran performance. Even-keeled approach by RDA and he looked like he could go for another 5. Lee looked gas at the end of 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee looked gas at the end of 2. That TD defense from RDA made it seem like Kevin Lee ran straight into a wall. I dunno why you would sell all the way out on that against a very good BJJ black belt. He just seem sorta resigned to the fact he was going to give up his neck or back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy electric debut and was able to turn it off so quickly once Roberts went down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
