Izzy at the face off looked like the bigger fighter.
Weird.
Though I guess once Jan hydrates it could look different

Yeah, Izzy was 201 and will probably walk into the ring at that weight. Jan will definitely be 225. Forest Griffin used be 240 e.g.

Jan could definitely KO Izzy if he lands, but he's just sooo plodding at times. Izzy could end up putting on a clinic.

I had no idea this card was sodeep. There are like 5 fight night headliners beyond the three title fights. Raddich vs Santos??? Joey B is like 4 back on the prelims.

Yeah this card is stacked.

3 title fights

Islam vs dober will be great

Good LHW fight.

Pre lims - when was the last time dom was in a non title fight? His last fight was against triple c and now he’s on the pre lims

Even benavidez last two fights are for the belt..

All this and my parter selfishly has her birthday tomorrow

Izzys gonna finish him you can bank on that

If Bob cant catch him w fwd movement, hard to imagine Jan can. Size dif notwithstanding.

Yan vs Aljo is a pick em. I'm just not convinced either guy is that exceptional or that this is really a title fight.

Izzy is going to stay on the outside and win rounds, not put himself into danger with Jan and get himself a second belt without any risk. Manage distance, pick em apart and call it a night.

135 is weird but Aljo running through Cory and Yan being a fairly unknown still makes this fight really interesting. Sandhagen finishing Frankie + Marlon since Aljo ran through him makes the division something fun to watch because there's a ton of dudes who haven't really faced each other and are all studs. 205 is dreadful but Rakic/Santos is going to be incredible.

Speaking of which I think Cory is gonna fight dilashaw for the next shot at the belt.

That fight was insane lol

On paper this is the best card I've seen the UFC put on in a good while. Santos vs Rakic is a dark horse for fight of the night, if it lasts long enough lol.

Double knock outs in the main & co main, you heard it here first!

Dupp · Post #19 » by **Dupp** » Sun Mar 7, 2021 12:58 am

That was domination, 30-25.

DC, rogan and even the ref didn’t wasn’t any of talk by Tim getting air time

That fight and finish was insane. Surviving the back mount and choke to knocking him out and then stopping the fight for herb.
