More, I need so much more fights!

If not UFC in Seattle, there is also PFL in Pittsburgh. Have your pick.

This week it is Stylebender v Pyfer and Izzy is no longer a "PPV" headliner it seems. He's had multiple losses in a row (Strickland, DDP, Imavov) and has looked pretty bad in all three fights. Pyfer is kind of on the upswing but has also lost to Jack Hermannson. Let's see what it brings. Good stuff on this card in some areas.

I. Adesanya vs. Joe Pyfer
185 lbs
- I like Izzy's fights overall but he hasn't fought in a hot minute and the sport is unkind to those on the downswing. I'm not sure his heart is in it, and if it is he needs a big victory or else I forsee a retirement fight coming up soon. Pyfer has the skills to make things hard for Adesanya, especially if he can establish ground control. Adesanya has generally been skilled at scrambling and avoiding the grappling game. That wasn't the case with DDP. On the feet we know he has great striking, but also looked quite uncomfortable vs Strickland (he's a tough one to deal with), DDP (who just walked through him), and Imavov (who KO'd Izzy with a great connection). Fight game is rough. Pyfer may be hittable, we will see how agile he is, and if he can deal with leg kicks as well. Verdict - Pyfer path to victory - ground game and don't give space, engage and clinch. Adesanya - thai clinch and kickboxing, slick combos in and out, and TDD.

Alexa Grasso vs. Maycee Barber
125 lbs
- Former champ Grasso has suffered a couple rough fights, losing to Val and Natalia Silva. She needs this one badly. I think she gets it!

Michael Chiesa vs. Niko Price
170 lbs
- Price on his last legs, Chiesa SUB

Julian Erosa vs. L. Douglas
145 lbs
- Douglas has hands, Erosa is tuff but I'm picking KO Douglas

M. Abdul-Malik vs. Y. Belgaroui
185 lbs
- ??

T. McKinney vs. Kyle Nelson
155 lbs
- Should be a good one, I think Nelson will be motivated and he's a dog in this fight.

I. Bahamondes vs. Tofiq Musayev
155 lbs

Chase Hooper vs. L. Gibson Jr.
155 lbs
- Hooper keeps getting softballs and I think this is no different. He's got the fakest resume at his weight class but he's really good on the ground. I just wonder when or if he will ever fight a fight with someone in the top 10.

Marcin Tybura vs. Tyrell Fortune
265 lbs
- Tybura needs this win, but Fortune is a KO guy, could be a sloppy fight.

Casey O'Neill vs. G. Fernandes
125 lbs

N. Stirling vs. Bruno Lopes
205 lbs
- Stirling is a City Kick Boxing prodigy but hasn't completely impressed in last fight. He sometimes gets into point fighting like Izzy but for some reason I'm picking a KO

Ricky Simón vs. Adrian Yanez
135 lbs
- ?

A. Thainara vs. Bruna Brasil
115 lbs
- Thainara is an up and coming prospect, I think she'll win here. Brasil is also one to watch, she's had good highlights but was wrestled in her last fight badly.

Yeah, I saw that one. Burns is tough but you can tell he's slowed down recently. He's taken a lot of damage in his career because he's not the most slick striker..... he challenged for the top of the rankings so I give him credit there. An honorable fighter. Good career, just fell short overall.

To Mallott's credit, he looked really crisp and the punches to get KD's in R2 and 3 were great. He got around the guard of Burns with that nice right hook, and the right uppercut did a lot of work too. Good work for 'Proper' this weekend. Keep pushing.

UFC is going to be in OKC on July 18th -- a city I recently relocated to for work. I will go to this card.

I was watching basketball all Saturday and didn't watch one fight lol Saw the Spann KO afterwards (3, 2 down the pipe -- very nice)

Lots of decisions!

Next week is Prates / JDM and some other nice Oceania fighters for a Fight Night. Main Event is for sure one I will tune into.

Friendly reminder that this fight night is in Australia. Prelims kick off at 4AM EDT/1AM PDT. Main card is still early lol 7AM East/4AM West coast USA.

Co-Main will be around 9AM Saturday East / 6AM West for us,but it will be on Sunday [Local Time] in Australia

Good luck :lol:

Nope, I already told the Aussies Hard pass & F*ck that noise/Sh*t.
(In an Aussie discord server to watch the PPV's for free).

His reaction:
"so we have so suffer to watch with YOU, but you won't do it with us
wow
wow
WOOOOOOOOOOOW"

I feel a little guilty but like, what do I do? do I go to bed super early then I have meds I take at like 1 am & one I take just before I go to bed.
It's just totally not convenient at all for ET time(the fight card times).

I feel you. I MIGHT make it up to watch the main event, that's the only fight I want to see tbh. If I some how do the near impossible, I'll review the card lol. They have it rough over there, most of the sports are surely at pretty inconvenient times. Though I do think it would be interesting to wake up with games going on in the morning for the NBA or what not.

7PM Eastern USA is 9AM Sydney. Imagine waking up and not having a job and getting US Sports in the morning :lol:
