Let's get a Kayla vs Nunes ***Poll Added***

[cburm]

Someone start us all a Kayla vs Nunes poll who wins via ko TKO sub decision
And a Strickland vs fluffy Hernandez poll

I'm feel the odds makers are completely off on those matchups I can't see in what world hernandez gets a w vs Strickland
Or Kayla beating Nunes. Would any sher bro do a poll im thinking about betting some big money. I need some sherbro insight I can't be the only one thinking this.

 

[Kung Fu Kowboy]

Sure. Why not. Have a happy holidays Sherbro

 

[Kenny Powerth]

A poll also for if they can make weight

 

[JonnyBonesPharmacist]

Agree on Strickland. But I think KaylaMuscles is gonna beat retirement era Nunes.

Can we add the option that should be available for all wmma polls?

"Nobody really cares for this at all. It isn't valid entertainment for grown adults. Please cut the women asap and fill those slots with the young crushers we're never having a chance to see. Nothing fucks up a card more than a wmma 5 round co-main."

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

How to make polls public, because I honestly couldn't find the option in my last thread. I could only make the results viewable

Whoever wins - it’ll be dominant

Either Amanda is in shape and can stuff the takedowns and smoke
Her

Or she gasses and quits caz that’s what she does when she’s not in shape

I generally hate on Amanda - but in her prime she could beat Kayla

Kayla seems like a good person and is much better for the sport to win though - would love to see her finish Amanda for good

Val vs either for Val’s last fight … Val don’t have much left but she deserves a final shot at double champ - I always thought she was better then Amanda and beat her and thought skill for skill she’s the actual goat

Strickland has very overrated grappling and tdd and no fight ending power … fluffy has the same if not better volume and pressure … I’d assume he gets Sean down and beats him - Sean looks real out of shape and at the end of the road - he’s no longer a real contender - just a tough gatekeeper - his heart ain’t in it anymore

 

[Neck&Neck]

I’ll be impressed if Kayla makes it to the fight
Weight cut for musclemommy is brutal

I’ll be impressed if Kayla makes it to the fight
Weight cut for musclemommy is brutal

Amanda more likely to have brutal weight cut

Kayla by ring rust

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

In my head, I see Amanda just being able to knock out Kayla like within minutes. Just keep distance and throw bombs.

But at the same time… When was the last time Nunez really had her take down defense tested? Like who really tried to take her down again and again and again. Tate? Rousey? I mean none of those women around the level of Kayla.

And then, unless she does get taken out, why do you think she will be able to get back up against two time judo Olympic gold medalist?

I think this fight is gonna be domination in One Direction, but I just don’t know which.

But I will go with Nunez until she gets beat soundly

 

[DougieJones]

I got both Kayla (assuming she does not have a bad cut) and Hernandez by sub


I expect Amanda to have a fair amount of ring rust, and I think Fluffy eventually gets ahold of Sean and drags him to the ground, and works for a sub

 

[DougieJones]

I’ll be impressed if Kayla makes it to the fight
Weight cut for musclemommy is brutal

I'm impressed every time she makes weight without dying

 

[don't ask]

I'm hella excited to see Kayla vs Amanda.

 

[Harlekin]

Nunes gasses on the ground

 

[Fahcough]

What are 2 bouts that aren't very interesting, Trebek

 

[Safton]

Leaning toward Kayla. I've seen what she's capable of and what she isn't. I feel like I have a pretty good bead on her as a fighter. I know she's in for a tough weight cut, but typically after that it's all downhill from there.

I would have favored Nunes in each woman's respective prime. Amanda had more than enough grappling & physicality to avoid getting utterly mauled whilst being far and away the superior striker. That said... as of now there's simply too many unknowns surrounding her:

• Has she been in the gym consistently?
• Forget Kayla, can Nunes make the weight? She talked about how Bantamweight was getting tough for her years ago during her reign; she saw 145 as a bit of a vacation in terms of weight-cutting.
• How much has she slowed down?
• What's her gas tank going to look like now that she's in her late 30s?

I mean I've seen what Amanda looks like on an off-night with a bad training camp in the first Pena fight. The results did not inspire confidence... and that was like four years ago when Amanda was a defending champ in the midst of her streak, not to mention her physical prime. And she was facing a an opponent that was far less dangerous than Kayla... not to mention one that Kayla herself just besmirched.

I dunno, I just feel like there's too many question marks floating around and too much potential for the version of Amanda we get to be damaged goods, even if only marginally so. Kayla is a tough customer and arguably represents one of the hardest challenges of Amanda's career. I think it's the kinda of challenge that requires a 100% dialed-in Lioness to overcome and even then I'd expect it to be a close, competitive fight. I somehow doubt we're getting that, so I'm forced to go with the fighter who's stayed active and fairly dominant this whole time.
