Yeah - and while Hardy has improved leaps, I am starting to feel JJ is regressing. Her distance control (when training and sparring with Rose) was one of her best assets on the feet, and in her most recent losses - Lipski and Hardy, it was not there. But what do I know, that's just a vague feeling I get. Anwyay. It was decently entertaining fight and glad for Hardy.Credit to Aldrich for hanging in there and winning round three. It was pretty clear that Hardy has surpassed her.
I guess this is what happens when most women haven't seen a wrestling mat in their lives.
Alejandra Lara finally broke her losing streak, against a late notice opponent

point fighting isn't a good base for mma either, but here we are -_-;;;While I don’t condone tearing apart another fighter’s resume to boost your own fighter, Coach Kavanagh makes a good point here:

Danni was also getting Bellator fights at 0-0 because she trained at SBG Ireland & yet Kavanagh was not crying then.While I don’t condone tearing apart another fighter’s resume to boost your own fighter, Coach Kavanagh makes a good point here:

Gatto should just move up. She’s not capable of hanging with the top end of 125ers but probably could hang with the top end at 135. Shes not a small flyweight either.what an absolutely bumper crop of women's fights this weekend - heaps of ufc/invicta alum across the board, we get to see val's goddaughter anelya toktogonova, heck even gabi garcia has a "fight"! feeling blessed
ufc picks this week:
- i really like vanessa but i feel like she's still building her game, while emily is a more established striker. ducote UD
- ariane carnelossi is back, yay! she didn't fight in 2023 and i wondered if she'd been cut. ariane has fought and beaten better competition than piera so i'll go with ariane. both fighters are aggressive so am expecting a fun fight (pls). carnelossi UD or club n' sub
- tamires is promising for wbw but i don't think she'll trouble melissa. gatto UD
- who gets wheel kicked by amanda ribas and thinks they can beat angela hill? get outta here! angie UD
Bellator was never on the level of UFC, and always used low level local fighters to fill out their undercards and sell tickets. UFC does not follow that model.Danni was also getting Bellator fights at 0-0 because she trained at SBG Ireland & yet Kavanagh was not crying then.
