What's next for Masvidal, Zhang and Andrade?

[Geniusss]

I think Masvidal gotta retire his 15 minutes of fame are gone, everybody knew he wasn't champion material but he was getting all those oportunities because of money? But now all that hype is over, he just got humiliated, he's done. He will never be a champion anyways so now he can go to Bellator now or something like that if he doesn't wanna retire, he's done, 15 losses already and just got ktfo in front of his people. There ain't no hope.

Zhang gotta get a couple of wins against top 5 fighters to get another shot a the title. She doesn't deserve a inmediately rematch, girl just got ktfo in the first round and she barely got 1 title defense by split decision.

Andrade has to go back to 115lbs, she has no business in there with Valentina, gotta go back down and fight those little girls at 115lbs. Now Rose is the champ and she's 1-1 with her so there's an argument to a trilogy, she can get a title shot easily there.

What do you guys think? What's next for those 3?

 

[Arnold Palmer]

Mas = Nick
Zhang = Rose II
Andrade = back to 115lbs

Mas = Nick
Zhang = Rose II
Andrade = back to 115lbs

Solid and I concur.

Andrade has no business at 125lbs.

 

[Black Paladin]

Mas = Nick
Zhang = Rose II
Andrade = back to 115lbs

Sounds good to me.

Rose/Zhang II would be very epic in a non-USA venue. More anti-US energy to feed the frenzy.

Do you guys really think Zhang deserves a inmediately rematch?

She just had 1 title defense and by split decision, she took more than a year off to defend the belt for the second time and got slept in the first round.

not necessarily but this is WMMA where things are hard to make exciting.

She had some great fights and I felt kinda robbed like she did from a full fight.

What are your suggestions that fit better ?

 

[Arnold Palmer]

I think people are to quick to jump on retirement as well.

for the sport i can see it.

but all them checks yet to be cashed makes a dam good argument to stay

Zhang shouldn't get a rematch. Rose should face the winner of Yan and Esparza.


Joanna vs Weili 2 is the much more interesting fight for Weili. Rose smoked her. No rematch

 

[NicholasJBasile]

* Zhang / Gaudelha
* Masvidal / loser of Edwards VS Diaz
* Andrade / Ribas

Weili was the 1st Chinese champion and on a 20 fight win streak before she lost to Rose. Rose has never won more than 3 fights in a row. She definitely deserves a rematch IMO.

 

[Huligani]

Masvidal = retirement
Zhang = she will almost certainly get an immediate rematch
Andrade = who cares

Weilis win streak was almost all outside the UFC. It's totally irrelevant. Her being Chinese shouldn't matter.

The only thing that matters is her title reign, which consisted of one highly debated split decision.

Weili was not dominant in the UFC. She does not deserve a rematch. Not right away anyway.

 

[SuperAlly]

I don't mind rematches in the right situation. A dominant champ like Max very much deserved a rematch. Whittaker has had to do far too much to get back to a rematch.

Weili probably should have at least 1 or 2 fights before a rematch with Rose. But given the financial side of it will probably get an immediate rematch

 

[yourmomsOBGYN]

Masvidal and Zhang are killers and can fight anyone.
Adrade is a fucking bum, but so are most women fighters, so shes good

Masvidal is overrated and needs to retire. he needs to take that weak ass BMF belt and shove it up his arse

 

[DOMMA]

Zhang does not deserve a re-match. Unless you are a long reigning champ who has defended the title multiple times or it was a controversial/split
decision, you do not deserve a rematch. Earn the rematch and let the next in line get their shot at the champ. Auto rematches are killing the opportunities for those that have earned a title fight.

 

[Better Every Day]

she barely got 1 title defense by split decision.

Leaving out the fact that that split decision was considered by many to be fight of the year, lol! But, nonetheless, I think Zhang needs some time to work on her striking defenses: Joanna showed that Weili is very hittable, and Weili isn't exactly known for head movement, etc. She has relied too much on aggression and being tough in my opinion. Time to work on the defensive side of stand up fighting.

Andrade has to go back to 115lbs, she has no business in there with Valentina, gotta go back down and fight those little girls at 115lbs. Now Rose is the champ and she's 1-1 with her so there's an argument to a trilogy, she can get a title shot easily there.

It depends on what Andrade is looking for. She might find it easier to be highly ranked at flyweight, as (with the exception of Valentina) flyweight is a weaker division than strawweight, in my opinion.

 

[sdpdude9]

Masvidal vs. Nick or Edwards/Nate loser

Weili vs. Joanna 2 or Xiaonan/Esparza loser

Andrade vs. Dern (return to 115)

It doesn’t matter if she deserves it or not. This is the UFC. Just go with it. Bitch if you want but, accept it. I guess you missed the ME last Saturday. And you’re complaining about the ex-champ getting a rematch? Get real.

 

[NoSmilez]

I think Xiaonan should be a good scrap for Zhang. I think Yan is actually the better striker but I am really not sure about her grappling.

Agree flyweight is easier with the one exception. That being said she has a better chance at a title at 115, which I assume she wants.
