PBP UFC Fight Night 246 - Moreno vs. Albazi Official PBP Discussion: Sat. 11/2 at 5pm ET

[Mmmmmmma1234]

I got Rose winning 1, 2, 4. Surprised people were giving r4 to Blanch with no question

Erin was up almost 2-1 in strikes 4r with a minute of control time was pretty obvious

 

[Ladder Master]

I thought Rose won 3-2 even though I was hoping Erin would take it.

 

[CrimsonFan]

Rose is as boring as they come but her landing jabs beats whatever blanchfid did offensively prior to the 5th rd. Hard to care though

I mean, it doesn't though. That's why Vegas had the odds

 

[xhaydenx]

Grasso. Of course she wants to fight someone who got grapple fucked last time out and has a name.

I knew she was gonna call out Grasso for that reason haha.

Erin is literally all cardio and strength. Her striking and grappling is very low level.

Rose won that 4th too.

 

[PurpleStorm]

The Main Event!

I hope Moreno doesn't get grapple fucked here.

Albazi got a gift over KKF in his last fight. Moreno can erase that.

 

[Ares Black]

I'm surprised it wasn't even a split

When I heard it was unanimous I kinda assumed it was for Namajunas TBH

Hell Nah

 

[flektarn]

Think rose lacks size and power at 125.

 

[Kalmah]

I swear to God, if these manlets don't deliver...

 

[Corona]

Poor man’s Oscar Isaac is about to put the can in this Mexican.

I am dissapoint sherdog staffer. You should know about the old guard and the new guard and their roles in the UFC.

 

[JoeRowe]

Yup, that sounds about right.

Rose, go back to 115 or find another vocation. This is stupid.

Zhang is probably moving up & Rose has her jumber anyways. Jandiroba is the #1 contender with Suarez is always hurt. Idk why she left the division I'm the first place, unless she was having legit health issues from the weight-cut.

 

[Hdfi]

if she defeats Grasso (and that's a big IF) she gets the next title shot.

 

[Deep808State]

Watching this hype package is for some reason just making me sad that Taira lost his last fight

 

[Deleted member 585708]

Rose now 13-7.

Insane to have such a mediocre numerical record.

Real Randy Couture vibes.

 

[Dreyga Hates You Sherbums]

Imagine if the ref did his job and stood fighters up who lay and pray with like 2-3 minutes of control time doing NOTHING. Instead he lets it ride and the judges always give the fighter lay and praying the round, does not matter that they were getting pieced up in the stand up prior. Rose would have won 3rd with competent ref and judging

Rose was stalling on the ground though. All she did was hold Blanchfield without even making an attempt to try and get up. Like she just gripped her and waited for the ref.

 

['Suga Daddy']

It was long. People are mad I had it 4-1 Rose, but I thought she won the first half of the third round before the takedown and landed cleaner in the fourth.

She got taken down around the 90 second mark without many big shots. I'm happy to hear a 3-2 argument even though I disagree, but 4-1 is nonsensical if you apply an unbiased lens to this my friend.

Rose won that 4th too.

I thought Rose clearly won the fourth, and Rose won the first half of R3 before Erin got one TD and legitimately stalled for three minutes. I'm not a fan of either of them. I don't care who won. I just hate when people don't invoke the rules when their fighter wins. Be consistent.

 

[JayPettryMMA]

Exactly how I saw it and was saying as much before you posted this.

I'm surprised it wasn't even a split

Yeah I have absolutely no issue with Blanchfield 48-47. There are fights where I dig in my heels, and others where it was clear it was ultra close. In R3, I thought the strikes Rose landed on her feet in the first two minutes were more effective than Blanchfield's three minutes of largely stalling with a few hammerfists and a couple good licks in. And then the fourth round, the impact of Rose's blows was more telling than Blanchfield having a jab slide off the cheek or something. But that's me, and that's ok if anyone disagrees.
