How good Alexa Grasso is?

Alexa has great fight IQ and is flexible with her game. Probably why Valentina had difficulties with her.

50% of sherdog or more has a huge bias against valentina and were very quick and ready to move on from her once they lost the title.

and yes Im calling out all those sites aswell. they were out right wrong, incorrect scores. a draw is reasonable. But a win for grasso is not.

all the sherdog score cards say grasso. and we KNOW how bad those are.

Now that they are investigating fight fixing might as well look into that round 5 10-8 which was possibly the most blatant "this is the score that gets the outcome we need" scorecard I can remember in 20+ years following this sport.

Remember it was fucking Mexican night or whatever the fuck they call it ... Noche UFC

If that was a 10-8 people should be tripping over 10-8s everywhere they go.

Your point is that was lucky. If it really was Alexa wouldn't even reach the same position forcing Valentina shrink back and pray for The fight to end. If you make a mistake Grasso is gonna to take your back
 
Styles make fights. I think Grasso just had an effective style as evidenced as by her finish and a super competitive second fight.

Also, everyone has a bad night at the office. See Nunes/Pena.

She beat Val once, drawed with her the second time and got dominated the final time. If Alexa beating Val wasn't lightning in a bottle then she wouldn't have drawed with her in the rematch and the 3rd fight would have been A LOT closer than it was. A large part of why Alexa was able to get to Val's back the first time is because Val had a lapse in decision making and decided to throw a spin kick when she should have instead continued to play it safe for the remainder of the fight. Val learned her lesson after that and Alexa was never able to find the same success she did in the first fight.
 
The draw wasn.

Val when fighting people she has no fear of doesnt prepare as hard n isnt as focused. An the "draw" wasnt a draw it was a Grasso gift in a fight she clearly lost.

When Val comes in ready an focused she dominates everyone but the bigger Nunes but I still think Val won the 2nd fight7

The division is funny, cause well, she beat those that you could consider the GOAT of the division, twice each, in their prime, Zhang´s GOAT claims come from beating Joanna...

and Namajunas lost twice to Esparza.


I think Joanna is the safe pick because atleast when he lost to zhang it was really fucking close. as was the second rose fight.

joanna also never lost a non title fight until the second fight with zhang. She was an undefeated champion with 5 title wins. even had wins against a future champ in andrade. A fighter who has KO wins in 3 weightclasses.

Then Joanna is, and i could agree on it, even if she lost to Namajunas, i thought she won the first fight with Zhang, its the one with the more solid resume until she started losing fights, to younger opposition, but most sherdog claims Zhang is and Namajunas isnt close, where her wins are the more solid of the three of them, IMHO Its Joanna with a close 2nd in Namajunas, Zhang is 3rd.
