Signings/Scouting WMMA Discussion #29

Since we're all doing spoilers...

Spoiler

I was debating posting this as well. For… artistic purposes, of course



this is a pretty good fight. Both share a recent opponent in Mexican wrestler Daniela Hernandez. Hracho was able to neutralize the takedowns of Hernandez, and sprawl and brawl/biller her on the feet. Meneses did not have the same success, losing a decision.



I can’t even take Combate seriously as a fight promotion. 9 hours before the event yesterday, they released the bout order that still included this fight(as usual, it’s impossible to know who’s fighting on a Combate card until a day or two before the event, unless the fighters let you know ahead of time). Then no further word from them that this fight was canceled.

Both fighters young and early in their careers. Watanabe just beat veteran SARAMI to take the Shooto super atomweight title. Machi is undefeated at 3-0 and already has a growing fan base

This is actually a decent fight coming from Cage Warriors:

Only in Maerica do you get women less than 5 feet tall having trouble making 105lbs

I think it’s safe to say at this point what happened to poor Victoria Lee

Weird stuff to cancel a fight and have both fighters on the same card meeting different opponents.

 

[leto1776]

Shenaninigans afoot, but I’llmbet Knutsson got a better contract this way than by getting picked on DWCS

 

[leto1776]

N. Silva getting $40k/$40k in only her fourth UFC bout is certainly an outlier.

hilarious Twitter thread. Didn’t know this about her, but don’t really care, either.

I didn't know she was that way inclined, so to speak.

Anyway what's this all about



I thought Fairn withdrew a couple of weeks ago, but maybe I imagined that.

Hopefully a mistake & not a USADA/medical failure. Cavalcanti is very good.

Doesn't seem weird she was 3/3 with a POTN, all exciting and dominant on her starting contract. Getting bumped to 40/40 seems right for a 2nd contract it could be more honestly.
