JoJo will need to summon the sweet demons with her angelic voice in any battle with Valentina.

She’ll probably need more than even that For some reason JoJo loves taking shots square on in the face and just trying to pile through them. Try that crap against the Valentina and I doubt she makes it out the first round.

Murphy first who I don’t know why but I have a bad feeling about it. JoJo normally gets robbed in decisions against Americans. My money she beat, Calvillo and Chookagin if not for some shoddy judging.

Jo Jo looked bloody fantastic against Jessica Eye. Her striking looked seasoned and fluid. I think she can bring it against Murphy who is technical but I think can be dominated by Jo. She needs to be the aggressor.

Cannot wait for this tonight. Looks an absolute excellent card.

Nate got this

There's something about Edwards that just makes him unlikeable.

Certainly lacking on the charisma department.


Here we go!

 

[Stobzilla]

How did they give that 1st fight to the brazilian guy ??

[George Owen]

Man, that was crazy.

Terrance McKinney KO'd Frevola and injured himself inside 10 seconds.

First time MMA fighter asks Rogan to go on his podcast. It must drive him nuts.

Fastest KO in the UFC lightweight division history, and 4th in the UFC overall.

Was just thinking he sidestepped that pretty well, "one day maybe" get the feeling he's said that a few times.

Evloev looks like Ian Curtis and fights Khabib style. I like it.

He's toast against someone with decent tdd. That was a nervy ending for him.

 

[George Owen]

Evloev is class. Testing his standup in the 3rd almost cost him the fight though. Need to stick to his strengths, ala Khabib.

Safe to say we will never have to watch these two clowns fight for a belt.

That was painful to watch.

Time for a kickboxing delight.

 

[justboy68]

Much better fight this one thankfully.

 

[Reditus]

Was probably heading to bed and watch the main card tomorrow but this fight has woken me up

 

[George Owen]

What a fight. 3rd round winner takes it in my opinion.

 

[justboy68]

Strong finish from Riddell should win it for him.

 

[George Owen]

8 decisions in 9 fights.

Time for the MMA gods to compensate us with 5 straight KOs.

 

[Reditus]

Ugh his arm

Ref you tool

 

[mu4c_20le]

Ok that's nasty

 

[Reditus]

Not sure I recognise that ref at all.

 

[George Owen]

That was incredible. Super high level grappling.

 

[justboy68]

Where do they find these refs?! Crazy.

 

[ZupZup]

Why is that not a technical submission?!

I have Paul Craig by submission in my acca so clearly I am biased... but I don’t get why that is a TKO?

 

[Reditus]

Like a wet fish dancing all over my body

Pack it up folks, that’s the quote of the year

 

[Shane88]

Why have him there for the decision? Just go to the hospital.

 

[Stobzilla]

Not sure I recognise that ref at all.

And you'll never have to again.

What an idiot.

 

[Stobzilla]

This.

Fecking twat.

He is a knob.

That's the first time I ever seen that ref before, and I'm pretty sure it'll be the last.

I swore I saw a tap during the first exchange ?

That's a rough one to be honest.

A technical submission would definitely be given if a fighter goes unconscious to a choke. If a limb breaks and the fighter doesn't tap or verbally submit whatsoever then I think the referee can declare a TKO based on them being unable to effectively defend themselves.

Although it looked to me like he was trying to tap a fair few times there. Ref was a joke too. It should count as a submission if we're using common sense.

Maia coming out to Linkin Park. I like it.
