Tonight's biggest winners.....

[kingT]

Latifi was the biggest winner by far. He's improving at a solid rate.

It's hard to tell if someone is improving when the fight didn't really last long

 

[kingT]

Didn't Stephens win with four illegal blows to the head?

He won by destruction

 

[kingT]

shogun in a title eliminator?

That tells you how sucky LHW division is atm

 

[kingT]

Holly Holm is ranked number 1 at 135. I doubt the McMann fight happens. The UFC wants Amanda Nunes to beat Rocky, so they can make Nunes vs Holm, and sell it as the 2 women who beat Ronda Rousey.

They are not going to give Holly Holm a strong wrestler. Unless, they are stupid and don't know how to finish their plans.

Holm vs either Sara or Zingano
Anything else is b.s.

 

[End Game]

1) Jessica Andrade: she's what I call a true warrior; strong chin, great conditioning, well rounded, extremly strong, with high fight IQ. She's one of my favorite fighters at the moment. UFC needs to PROMOTE her! Easily one of the bravest and most exciting fighters in all of combat sports!

2) Jeremy Stephens: the guy is a straight savage. Always looks for the knockout. Marches forward and throws heat until he breaks his opponent! UFC must promote this guy as the next face of the company assuming Conor never comes back! Can he surpass Conor's popularity is the billion dollar question!

Matches to make next:
* Andrade vs Rose/Joanna winner
* Stephens vs Max Holloway
* Latifi vs Shogun Rua for the next crack at the title
* Angela Hill vs Felice Herrig (fire works)
* Marion Reneau vs Bethe II (biggest rematch since Silva Weidman II)
* Sara Mcman vs Holly Holm (it's a shame this fight hasn't taken place yet)
* Mike Perry vs Eric Silva (battle of prospects)
* Barao vs Jose Aldo Junior (to determine Brazil's #1 featherweight)
* Max Griffin vs Alan Jouban (both beat Perry so this only makes sense)
* Ben Saunders vs Mat Brown (battle of the old guard)
* Tecia Torres vs Gadelha (to determine the second best at the weight class)
* Emmet vs Cub Swanson

Wow it’s like you read my mind..

 

[kingT]

Reneau, for me...that chick is fuckin 40. Incredible. Low-key makes me wanna buuuuuussssst.

Great performance by her for sure

 

[kingT]

The fans. Those were awesome fights

Indeed

 

[Jorge Luis Borges]

Didn't Stephens win with four illegal blows to the head?

Yes, but they were awesome so good enough.

 

[kingT]

Completely blown away by Latifi

Did you buuuuuussssst watching this too? @TheGrouch

 

[Muay Thai #1]

I like the idea of Smilin Sam vs Gian. Would be a fireworks fight.

Probably ends up with Gian walking into a KO punch

Sam always seems to be able to catch people with a big punch, even when he's losing

Gian always seem to get caught and KO'd even when he's winning

 

[kingT]

Wow it’s like you read my mind..

Great minds think alike

 

[bambammccoy]

Stephens looks good when he fights opponents who fight his fight. He is exciting for sure.

He was an important piece in making 189 one of the greatest cards of all time.

Fan who got some free fights

Fan who got some free fights

Haha right on

 

[The Invisible]

Stephens is just to stupid to be a draw.

 

[kingT]

Lol at you talking like Stephens is some new fighter who just broke into the scene... holy fuck white belts make me laugh.

He reinvented himself. The new Stephens is one scary mother****er

 

[DarkneT]

Completely blown away by Latifi

.... you must have low expectations

 

[kingT]

Stephens is just to stupid to be a draw.

You don't have to be a genius to become a draw. Matter of fact, 99% of fighters fit your description

 

[End Game]

Stephens is just to stupid to be a draw.

 

[L0ki]

You're trying way too hard my friend.
Andrade won a dominant decision and nothing was close about it

You'd be trying way too hard if you think it was dominant and not close.

TD's don't mean much if the fighter isn't able to do much with it.

A hard punch should be scored higher than a TD and just holding position.
