Nunes vs Pena What/which fights on the early prelims & prelims are diamonds in the rough/to watch out for?

Thankfully Jays vs Tigers in the afternoon & then I have gaming night at 8 pm to midnight with my buddy Myles G.

Not sure if were doing Monster Hunter Rise or Final Fantasy XIV maps/map run.

Dober vs Alves? Ankalev vs Smith Lewis vs Pavlovich Moreno vs France

Smith paying $5 worth a punt. Ank is $2 by decision if you wanna hedge for guaranteed money.


Moreno getting his belt back and that’s all that matters.

The UFC should just ban grappling and accept being third rate boxing or second rate kickboxing at this point. Ref stand-ups come faster and faster every event it seems. Ridiculous. I want to see a fight.

Nunes looked mighty impressive again tonight. Came in looking physically strong and her striking was on point. The switching stances, the feints, and the counters were all effective. And did Pena go to the Rhonda Rousey school of striking? Yikes. I love her heart and passion and was actually pulling for her to win, but she's gotta clean that up. Bull rushing in with those straight shots, that was an easy counter for a tactician like Nunes.

[Dupp]

Peñas striking is weird. Pretty much just blitzes everything time and that’s all she’s got. Jabs a little.

Her heart and toughness were next level though.


Let’s get Moreno figgy 4 done and get pantoja his shot

Ya good night of fights!

Nunes back to uncontested GOAT again. I'm pretty skeptical about WMMA but loathe to join the crew of misogynists. And, like, she is still not very good, even as the GOAT. But the power and ability to capitalize on her height, strength, and abilities to leverage angles is excellent.

A couple nice body shot wins. You love to see it. Dober was setting up that straight to the body all fight.

I'm a little skeptical on Moreno. That amount of upperbody movement in his stance just seems like nonsense. If Canelo is his hero, this is the exact opposite of Canelo, who doesn't waste an action potential and has the most elegant, simple style you can get.

Morenos coach was on mma hour this week. Said 2 main things he’s addressed was Moreno badly telegraphs his double jab (which is where figgy landed his big overhand rights) and getting him to not be so heavy on his lead leg ( figgy kicked the **** out of him last fight)

See how it goes but Brandon could have been given the nod last fight, was extremely close.
