UFC Fight Night 141: Ngannou vs. Blaydes

[nydiacaskey01]

Location: Cadillac Arena, Beijing, China
Date: 25 November 2018 Sunday
Venue: Cadillac Arena

Curtis Blaydes 10-1-0, 1 NC (No Contest) vs Francis Ngannou 11-3-0

Alistair Overeem 43-17-0, 1 NC (No Contest)  vs Sergey Pavlovich 12-0-0

Song Yadong 12-3-0, 2NC Vs Vince Morales 8-2-0

Li Jingliang 15-5-0 vs David Zawada 16-4-0

I would go for Francis Ngannou on this one. His last 2 fights may not be as impressive as his past fights but he has a lot to prove inside the octagon and that makes him hungry to win this fight and a possible title fight with the current champion.

Not as impressive? He has been truly awful in recent fights. He certainly does need to put up a decent performance so to get him back into the mix however Blaydes is the clear favourite (as short as 1.4).

This fight will be all or nothing for Francis Ngannou, I reckon. A 3rd subsequent loss will put his status in the UFC to only an ok fighter and he might never have a chance to fight for a championship again.

Unfortunately, Francis Ngannou is the underdog on this fight. Nitrogensports shows odds of +205 for Francis Ngannou and -236 for Curtis Blaydes. Odds maybe against Francis Ngannou by now but I am placing my bet on him. His last 2 fight does not define what kind of fighter he is now, it depends on his will to win.

@nydiacaskey01. Curtis Blaydes is a wrestler. I reckon he will be using more of that mainly after it was shown by Stipe that Francis does not have the stamina for it.

Also, do not underestimate that Curtis Blaydes also has knockout power and that he is a rising star in heavyweight. Francis is declining.

Looks like the prime days of Alistair Overeem is over is he is starting to fade looking at the odds given to him by the bookies. Before he is one of the best in the heavyweight division. its ironic that the last 2 guys who we're able to beat him are Francis Ngannou and Curtis Blaydes and they are scheduled to fight at the same card. I hope if he wins this fight with Sergey Pavlovich he gets a shot again on the title. Alistair Overeem's striking stats accordinf to UFC site is awesome at 73%. He may need to work on his ground game to stay in this field.

Well somebodies 0 is going to go, I don’t know much about either fighter if I’m perfectly honest. Only seen Ngannou fight once which was a comprehensive victory but as I’ve not seen Blaydes fight I’ve got nothing to go off, I certsinly won’t be betting on this fight.

The undercard looks quite good!

I watched their last match and Francis Ngannou had prevailed in their first fight well even though we can see Curtis Blaydes determination and perseverance because he would want to continue the fight even with his handicap state on not seeing on his right eye and the doctor was the one that stops the fight I really think he had the upper hand But I think Ngannou will still become the winner I really think he had planned something in this rematch and had changed his tactics in this upcoming fight

What undercard looks good? Those are noname fighters from China that are fighting noname fighters from America hehehe.

Also, Alistair Overeem's opponent is also fighting a noname fighter from Russia. He said he had to google the name of the Russian.

Yeah I was thinking the same about the *quality undercard*

It's not over yet with Alistair Overeem. He just improved his own record from only 1 first round win to 2 wins in first round. His other records are 21 wins by Knock Out and 17 wins by Submission. Not bad for someone at the age 38. He looks big and slow but his striking accuracy of 73% is something to be feared and this guy also have a good ground game.
