The above post randomly came by my feed, and reminded me there's three Iranian muay thai women I sort of follow in Thailand that haven't been wearing hijabs for the last year. One knocked out Aphidet Fairtex, another just made it to the finals of the Rajadamnern stadium tournament, and another is a signed Fairtex fighter. I hope nobody who cares notices them, or they don't ever plan to return home.

Speaking of One delivering the goods, this is very high on my list for the latter parts of the year.



Both are absolute faves for me, so minimal leaning and it be all good!

Hirata is gonna be reduced to nothing but leaning. Her striking sucks, and her takedowns aren’t that great, either.
 


Had to look it up, as it seemed weird, but Jleana Valentino hasn’t fought mma since her debut against RENA at RIZIN in 2015.

Anyway, a mma show in Malta is intriguing.

I wish they were doing an 8 woman tournament instead of 4 I feel like Jacobson has just a good of shot as anyone here. Also surprised Hansen not involved at all.
Guthrie at 135 is also a surprise.
Think Bernardo wins handily here, hopefully setting up a fight with Tennant.

Interesting, that LFA card is about an hour from where I live. Unfortunately, I'm really not feeling up to going out to something like that.
 
Oo. Medusa 3! :) Would have missed that, have been too busy to keep up with everything happening!

Fiorot vs. Chook has a weird sort of interest for me. And it might become a cool karate match if we luck ou! Hoping Fiorot wins, of course, and minimal leaning! I guess I shall pick Rosa for the other match - while Länsberg is semi-local, Rosa probably has a better future in the UFC - or something. And no leaning!
 
Andrade vs Murphy doesn't make any sense to me, but I guess it's a good matchup. Murphy is durable and she's JACKED, I don't know if Andrade will be able to throw her around as easily as she did other women. Even with her good endurance, I see Andrade drowning her to a TKO like she did to Calvillo.

I got Chooks by decision. I wouldn't be surprised if Fiorot wins, but I'm still expecting Chookagian to win the striking exchanges and the scorecards. Shevchenko vs Chookagian 2 should be next. Haters be damned.
