The Natural Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 Liking the main card. Maia vs. Condit should deliver and we get Miller vs. Lauzon 2. Surprised Anthony Pettis made Featherweight with how he looked trying to make it. Had a brief flashback to James Irwin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 Pettis looked better at the ceremonial weigh-ins. I'm surprised Do Bronx showed up at 143. People expected him to blow weight too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elsalvajeloco Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 I'm guessing Shane Campbell is on his way back to WSOF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 Fun back and forth brawl between McLellan and Di Chirico. Right guy won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 I credit Sam Alvey because he at least tries to market himself when he gets the mic. Some better fights could stand to learn from him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elsalvajeloco Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Hopefully, the writing team finds a good program for Alvey. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 PVZ with a sweet jumping switch Kick to stop Bec in the 2nd round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Say what you want about Paige VanZant. She's not just a pretty face. She can fucking bang. That feinting mid-air kick was beautiful. Miller/Lauzon II was a little tough to score. I had it Rounds 2 and 3 for Lauzon, with round 1 for Miller. But Miller did have some harder shots in those rounds. Oh well.

Elsalvajeloco Posted August 28, 2016 Author Share Posted August 28, 2016 Nice kick KO win by PVZ. I picked her by second round knockout too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztor Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 was surprised that Miller got the win, i scored it fairly easily for Lauzon. no complaints tho. amazing switch kick high kick from PVZ to get the KO. that was a thing of beauty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxB Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 When they first signed CM Punk, they said they'd be calling him Phil 'CM Punk' Brooks. But now it seems like his fake wrestling name is his true Nomme de Guerre now. Which fair enough, it's the name he's best known under, and obviously there's plenty of Brazilians and Japanese who have fought under nicknames in the UFC... but it still feels a bit odd that he's not using his real name for his real fight.

TheVileOne Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I still don't see Pettis going very far at featherweight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 I called it wrong. It happens. I expect him to go 1-4 soon though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVileOne Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Oliveira was in that fight from start to finish. It wasn't like a straight up annihilation by Pettis. Let's see if he can go five rounds with Cub Swanson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see if he can go five rounds with Cub Swanson. Of all people, why do you think Cub Swanson is the guy that will take out Pettis? What exactly does Swanson do better than Pettis? The fight to make is Pettis against Holloway, let those two stand and trade crazy strikes until one of them falls down. The winner either gets Aldo or the winner of Aldo vs. McGregor II.

supremebve Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Damian Maia's grappling is so much better than everyone in the history of MMA. If he gets you on the ground, you are in big big trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Super solid night of fights! Awesome performances especially in the winners of the last 3. Hell of a win for Maia 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Yeah I can't see Woodley having a snowball chance in hell against this ground game master Maia except for a lucky punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hail Sabin Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 Sounds like Woodley vs. Wonderboy with Maia waiting on the winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
