Sucks. I was really looking forward to seeing if Miura could pull it off.

 

[leto1776]

Combate Global has an event tonight free on YouTube:



Kenia Enriquez was supposed to be on this, no word what happened with that. Also, it’s funny, Combate makes a big deal about returning to Mexico, only to be in a tv studio, same as Miami

'The Blocker' is an awesome nick (I hope she does more than just block though) (...and not with her face...)

If she wants to be UFC bound it might need more Pitbull though. 'Pitbull the Blocker'? 'The Blocker Pitbull'? ...'The Pitbull Blocker'?...

 

[Mittens]

I would like to be pre-stoked bout Val vs Zhang to no end, but there is a nagging fear in my mind that if Weilii cannot handle Val's rasllin, we get 5 rounds of 0 striking, 0 grappling, 100 blanketing. I can live with Zhang not being able to handle Val's jab and a 50-45 of that, but not a full blown Fitching.

So I'll keep expectations low.

Still one of the most awesome bookings of all time in the womens divisions. IF things turn out for the best, we might have competition for Joanna vs Zhang 1 and Tate vs Kedzie.

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Omg so stoked, Zhang about to be a 2 division queen in 2 better divisions then Nunes did, a win here is a good argument for best WMMA fighter of all time.

Also happy to see Virna isn't getting iced and will get her deserved title shot vs dern is kind of weird but Dern is 1-0 vs her. Now I don't mind the Suarez vs lemons booking.
Guess that leaves Loopy vs Yan to book.

Jacqueline still being made to crawl up the Bw rankings should get another easy win here. Hopefully this is the one that gets her a top 3-5 next.

Santos i remember enjoying her last Bw fight so hope she wins too.

counterpoint: weili laying on xiaonan for 4.5 rounds in their championship fight

There was some strangling!

Also, it was grappling, like pointsjabbing I can also forgive grappling stallery, wrestling not so.

 

[leto1776]

I posted a page or two back an IG post from her about recovering from knee surgery. Gotta wonder if she was getting ahead of this news. She only fights once a year anymore, anyway



Luxton will have the size advantage, as Jorand was an Atomweight until she grew out of it, but Jorand has the experience edge

I am actually hoping she was trying to cheat with a sketchy doctor giving notice here, Cyborg style. The MMA ineptitude raises its ugly head once again here otherwise. ”Pro” sport indeed…

 

[leto1776]

I’d much rather watch Favela in Invicta. They need to get their shit together

 

[Xuh]

'Interesting' fact of the day:
Sam Hughes is about to have her 11th UFC fight; so far, she has won 5 and lost 5.

This is the first time she has ever been a favorite in a UFC fight!

(So.... Bannon by controversial split decision?)
