Rewatch Carlos Prates vs Geoff Neal

[WoozyFailGuy]

Some of Prates at his best, completely outclassed Neal in the first when I initially picked him to win a decision. Best in the year of the spinning shit?

So overrated. Leon Edwards is going to put a clinic on him

 

[Söze Aldo]

One of the nastiest spinning elbows. It was concussive and slashing at the same time.

that knee to the body was nasty too. overall a nasty performance.

 

[Gabe]

He got beat by Ian Garry.

Prates is great, but he disappointed me greatly in the fight with Ian where he would just follow Gary around like an amateur and barely throw anything while Gary was styling on him. That's the first half of the fight I mean.
Glad he realized he needed to actually fight the second half.
Still, just watch TV and I am rooting for him.

I think the loss was good for him, he showed a lot of agency in this Neal fight immediately after. I thought the loss would shake him a bit and make him cruise to a decision to try to conserve his tank. Glad I was wrong.

100%

Before Gary, Prates won like two of his easy gift fights by eye poke body strike to the side of the eye poke. I don't understand, why is Gary not fighting anyone right now and do they really give Prates a title shot for beating Leon over Gary and Sean ? Prates is another Muay Thai guy that should keep fighting Muay Thai or stop acting like he deserves to be gifted so many of these amazing opportunities. Sean fucks that guy up and I also see Gary winning the rematch.
