Signings/Scouting WMMA Discussion #29

[leto1776]

Budd Sento Championship 25 later this month. Regina Tarim has been fighting for Combate recently.

 

[Xuh]

Just so everyone knows, this is a dress rehersal of WME-IMG's script for Kayla vs Peña.

 

[Askafan]

hooooly shiiiiittt... those punches didn't look like much, duben's hands must be made of stone

Try another angle

 

[werepig]

thank you! - i'm glad i wasn't the only one who thought that but MAN, clark's face absorbed every kJ of duben's punch

 

[Xuh]

She's 30, so that's not great... but I've been waiting to see how Ashley Thiner does in pro mma. She has several qaulity wins on her muay thai record.

she's fighting a WRESTLER

 

[Mmmmmmma1234]

Just so everyone knows, this is a dress rehersal of WME-IMG's script for Kayla vs Peña.

Are they going to give Pena another title shot after being 0-2 in her last two trys challenge the new Champion Kayla

Oh I also wanted to ask about your Carla post is she really retiring after tecia?

[aerius]

Joselyne better be working on her boob punch, it's clearly Vidal's weak spot.

You didn't know? It's the biggest MMA news of the decade (possibly of this millennium so far)

[werepig]

all my picks suck lately so my anti-picks this week are:

- silva by KO

 

[leto1776]

Rayanne Dos Santos broke her arm, out of her October fight


My favorite Spanish Atomweight gets to fight a little closer to home for her next bout:

 

[leto1776]

Mosca is “fly” en Espanol. Looks like it will be on Fight Pass, so easy to watch




Ricci has won her last two fights against long time veterans via wall and stall

 

[Eater of Souls]

Silva by decision but it was hard to pick against Andrade.
Amorim by decision as well.

 

[Dn10]

Is Diana Avsaragova still fighting?

UFC Fight Night

Natália Silva earned a UD over a tough Jéssica Andrade. Silva looked fast and her quick kicks to the head and body proved decisive. Glad they both earned bonuses for fight of the night!

Jaqueline Amorim got a second round arm bar submission Vanessa Demopoulos. Amorim looks like she'll be in a championship fight at some point. Extends her record to 6-0 in the UFC.

At Bellator I watched Sumiko Inaba TKO Mackenzie Stiller in round 3. Fun fight that actually went back & forth until the finish.



Fight of the Night: Natalia Silva def. Jessica Andrade. Natalia Silva def. Jessica Andrade, UFC Fight Night 242. Natalia Silva def. Jessica Andrade via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27). In the co-main event, Natalia Silva kept rolling in the women’s flyweight division with arguably her biggest win yet – against ex-strawweight champ Jessica Andrade (26-13 MMA, 17-11 UFC).

UFC Fight Night 242 bonuses: Silva-Andrade banger is a $50,000 winner

The UFC handed out four bonuses after Saturday's card, including a Fight of the Night featuring a former champion. After UFC Fight Night 242, four fighters picked up an extra $50,000 for their performances in Las Vegas. Check out the winners below. Performance…

Is Diana Avsaragova still fighting?

Good question. Don't know. Maybe someone here will.

According to the Sherdog Fight Finder her last fight was August 11, 2023. A loss to Justine Kish.

silva v. andrade was great, 50k well earned

the fingers in the glove between jacque amorim and vanessa demopoulos was pretty egregious - reckon vanessa has a case with NSAC?

Possibly, but the NSAC is often as useful as a barbed-wire butt plug. Ref was terrible while this was obviously going on.

Potentially great signing, or potentially ONE squandering another career. Dunno.
