R Tim all the way
Svensson - Teymur wont happen according to the official match card. Anyone know what happened?
Artem will win this, sucks Saul is off the card, do they put him on the London card in Feb or what? If he cant get back into US will UFC keep him? Do they have any fighter on the roster who cant get into US?
I guess you could say the odds are.... 50/50
You're no punThe odds are 100/1 for Artem to win.
I will eat my sweaty socks if Artem doesn't win.
Ryan Hall getting badly underrated now that he's lost. People seem to be forgetting there was nothing much in his fight with Saul, he arguably won the first round and fought well in the second, applying good pressure and coming close with various submissions.
He also showed a very good chin, getting put down and bouncing right back up without any hangover from the shot is very impressive, especially against a much bigger guy. It's far from a guaranteed KO for Artem.
Artem isn't as intelligent or as disciplined as Saul and doesn't have a base as strong as him, it wouldn't surprise me if Ryan hooks his leg up pretty easily. Artem leaves his lead leg out there a lot as well, the single will be wide open and Ryan will have watched his tape over and over again, he shouldn't make the same mistakes of waiting too long.
I think Hall will win by second round submission, Artem will get overconfident and end up getting dragged to the mat.
Maybe but I think it's more people are sold on Artem's KO power and unorthodox style now.
Just a couple weeks ago Artem was a guy with a mediocre record who looked unimpressive against Baghdad and Koed the dwarf Fili/Jenkins.
But then he destroyed Greutzamacher and Julian Erosa with vicious KOs so has made believers of alot of people.
It's an intriguing fight that could go either way and should have a finish either KO or sub.
Exactly. I think Hall has a good chance of flopping down off the 1st punch Artem rushes in, tangle, heel hookThis is a pick em fight.
If Ryan tangles up Artem, he subs him inside the first. If Artem can keep distance, he KOs him inside of 1 round.
I also think it is funny that Hall was busy training with Artum. I get the feeling when they were training, Artum was already aware Hall would get the call and was just training with him to get a better feel for his submission tricks #conspiracy
Ryan hall by sub in the first. There's a reason why Artem is 11-10 fighting mostly bums.
