WMMA Discussion #29

[Eater of Souls]

Cycles, water retention, bloating, all a pain in the butt when it comes to hard cuts.

But yeah there's been some shocking ones over the years, where you wonder if they even try.

A lot of them who have to fly in have expenses that out-strip their fight winnings also. This means that they fly out as late as possible to avoid extra hotel bills and everything else that they can. Unfortunately, flying causes you to bloat, particularly the higher and longer you travel. Men to a degree, women far more. So if you fly in the day before weigh in it will really fuck with your cut.

But yes, I have also seen some like look like WTF did you even do between camps? Eat everything between yourself and the horizon?

Is Bella Mir a possibility?

 

[leto1776]

Is Bella Mir a possibility?

I’m sure she’s on Shannon’s radar, but also hasn’t fought in two years

 

[PurpleStorm]

Has there ever been an Invicta card with 0 weight misses?

Magic 8 ball says Doubtful

Well she's on the college wrestling circuit so that's better experience then regional MMA anyways. She's should be graduating soon tho.

 

[werepig]

ufc picks this week:

- mullins to bounce back from her previous bout
- probably gomes, but am interested to see how kk is in this fight. i don't like this matchup at all
- tbh i'm expecting a tepid striking match between pinheiro and the savage. hope i'm wrong

 

[Necrocrawler]

For me:

Gomes by KK being kinda old
Mullins UD
I think Gillian manages to sub Pinheiro... But i have a feeling Pinheiro may pull an upset.

 

[leto1776]

 

[werepig]

ya know what, i genuinely like this matchup for both

 

[Eater of Souls]

Luana Pinheiro vs. Gillian Robertson Robertson via sub but I am not solid on this.
Karolina Kowalkiewicz vs. Denise Gomes If I were a betting man my money would be on Gomes, but since I have nothing to lose KK by virtue of I just like her.
Melissa Mullins vs. Klaudia Syguła Mullins via dec.

Odds aren't worth it
Gomes is a huge favourite haha

But I'm in the same feeling

Heart says kk (and Pinheiro)
Reason says gomes and Robertson

I don't see horth will have any chance grappling with the Maverick.
