This on FightPass? How many hours until kick off?

 

[Jose Beehive]

This a decent LFA card? Anyone got any insight?

Bruno looked pretty trash against Ulberg on DWCS I thought.

Before I forget, the LFA is running a giveaway contest here on their Instagram:



You have to follow the fighter, follow the LFA, and tag them both in an IG story with your favorite heavy metal song. I don't know what that last part means, I'm just pulling it from the page.

Winners (Announced Feb 1) will get one of Tabatha Ricci's Pantera-themed masks, they're pretty cool. She also uses a top-tier walkout song.

Gonna put my kiss of death on Fremd for this card. Expect him to get a vicious KO and a call to at least DWCS if not the full roster.

Also keep an eye out for Conan Silveira's kid, though I don't think he's quite knocking on the UFC door yet.

Get hype, boys.

Imagine if she loses to someone with a 1-5 record.

I guess Ricci lost several opponents en route to this fight, so LFA got someone that could step up on mighty short notice. I imagine a showcase performance could be coming, the 1-5 girl lost several by sub on the way, well, down.

At +900 odds, I might just throw a few dollars on the underdog. And by throw, I mean away.

You'd be better off putting the money on Gamestop or AMC or Blackberry.

Doing a little bit of Tapology research he'd probably be better going outside and just giving the money to someone.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Chavez vs. Ruelas is off, one of the two failed their medicals. So we'll start on FB at 8 with one prelim.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

We have...a bracket!
