🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread

[YuginKadoya]

I guess I will get disappointed regarding this because I really want to see a Nurmagomedov fight next year and because this elusive fight doesn't seem to continue, but maybe Khabib will not have any reason pulling out now in my opinion oh! I wish.

If Khabib Nurmagomedov is not injured and if Tony Ferguson pulls out of the fight i am sure the fight will continue as long as there is another opponent taking the opportunity to fight Khabib in a short notice fight as Khabib does not care if there is a short notice replacement like the rest of the fighters and we have seen that in the past when Tony pulled out last time and he was willing to face anyone even with short time replacement.

Well, I wish the same as well when someone pulls out from the fight I wish there is a replacement for that fighter but I really want a Khabib Nurmagedov fight to be watched next year, I wish I can get that next year, but still looking forward to Tony Ferguson vs Khabib Nurmagomedov fight, I am pretty curious about what ay happen in the ring I sure feel so much excitement right now.

I am pretty excited as well myself Tony Ferguson Freak lung injury had pulled him out from a fight with Nurmagomedov and now that he's back and healed I am pretty sure that there is nothing that can stop this fight anymore

Both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson are healthy and they have a long time to prepare for this fight and i hope they will not get injured preparing for this fight as they are getting into this fight with high stakes as they are on a tear in the UFC and the win will cement as the best fighter.

Pretty wish that they are both healthy when that date comes for their fight, Pretty sure looking forward to this wonderful event.

There is no doubt the most awaited fight in the entire UFC is Tony Ferguson vs Khabib Nurmagomedov and every time the fight is announced the fans gets thrilled to see an epic fight but the fight keeps on getting cancelled at the last moment, last time Khabib pulled out because of weight cutting issues and he was hospitalized and Tony pulled out in the recently scheduled fight because he fell down while promoting the fight in a studio and injured his leg and Tony used to release videos about him kicking an iron post and he got injured tripping over a simple wire inside the studio  .

After realizing something, maybe they are just making an excuse regarding the fight, and I guess because of the sudden and continues cancelation of their fights the fans grew their excitement and this could surely cause an extremely disappointment conclusion when it got canceled again, with this is not the case between the two and I really wish that there will be no problems regarding this fight to be settled.

Cerrone is that tune up fight.

I got the image from a MMA page (can't remember which one) few days ago and it makes sense haha.

Exactly why it's called a tune up fight.  Those two above Cerrone would annhiliate McGregor.  That part is obvious.  The curious thing is why the match is at WW instead of LW.

I think that after the humiliating defeat from Khabib Nurmagomedov, Conor went off the tracks and he might have ballooned a lot and it might be difficult for him to cut the weight down to 155 pounds . Jorge Masvidal and Justin Gaethje are much dangerous opponents than Cerrone and i hope he might be having plans to have a shot a the WW belt too, who knows, he might be winning against Cerrone and might call the champion to face him .

He fought the 155 pound champion without even fighting in the division and that was his first fight and the second fight he was defeated comprehensively by one of the greatest in the division and he might be planning to do the same at 170 pounds, he needs to have a tune up fight and that too against Cerrone who is on a loosing streak and he is smart enough to know that he will be happy to fight Conor in any division and he might even challenge the winner between Colby and Usman and Dana White might even give him that fight .

Talking about Khabib Nurmagomedov fight, and he says that he’s in Khabib’s head

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hcpr7FeBUk

I reckon that might be true hehehe. There was an interview in Russian on Khabib in his hometown in Dagestan where he said that he is more motivated to train versus Tony than his last 4 opponents. However, the effect might not what Tony wanted. Similar to what occured to Conor's trash talking, it only made Khabib stronger hehehe.



“I will train hard. With every fight, I gain more and more experience. I’m getting older, I am 31. I think it’s the peak age of [a] fighter’s career. Of course, I will train more for this fight because I got worthy opponent. He is very good and very dangerous opponent. And to be honest, I lacked this motivation for my last fights.Iaquinta,Conor,Barboza,Poirier.They’re not the same as Tony Ferguson. That’s why I feel that fire burning inside me again.”

Khabib Nurmagomedov is a monster and Tony Ferguson is a legit fighter that could challenge him and he knows that very well and a small mistake could cost him the fight as Tony is dangerous with his submission game and hence he will be motivated and this will be the most anticipated fight of all time when it comes to skills, Conor fight he wanted to hurt him and he just did that but Tony has different skills as he is unpredictable in the stand and great on the ground.

^  I used to think Khabib was beatable before McGregor.  Not anymore.  And I was def convinced after Poirier.

Edit:  I got the losing bet slips to prove it.  Lmao.

I got the losing bet slips too, i was thinking, this will be one of the last McGregor fights, he can't lose. An that was 'The way she goes'...

I didn't like at all that fight, but at the end Khabib get my resperct, he is a great fighter and i will bet on him each time he get in the octagon.

To have a record of 29 and 0 is not easy in MMA and if you look at all the fighters you will know that everyone respects Khabib and his skills and his dad is regarded as a true master because he introduced many techniques that the world has not seen and that is not a small contribution to the martial arts world, i will never doubt Khabib as he is giving me the wins for many years and McGregor was coming back after a long gap and i had an idea he will get drilled as the trash talking had no affect on him before the fight, some fighters when they locked inside the cage they rush in to get their hands of Conor and gets knocked down but Khabib fought a perfect fight.

Before we forget, there's a filler event this weekend before we go to 245 (which is supposed to be stacked but those match ups are meh imo, except got the main event...).

This is a classic winner moves on match between Alistair Overeem and Jairzinho Rozenstruik, i have not seen any of his fights nor seeing the name for the first time but looking at his record he is unbeaten in MMA and if he could pull a dramatic win over Alistair Overeem he could fast track himself to the title shot in a few fights and the other fight i am looking forward is Stefan Struve and Ben Rothwell and both are coming back after a long layoff and i expect Rothwell to win.

Overeem is a slight fwavorite in this fight if we look at bookies odds.
I must say that I never watched any Rozenstruik figths so far, so I can't judge who will win here.
Need to do some research about him

I am surprised that Alistair Overeem is still fighting and winning fights, when i saw the knockout by Francis Ngannou i thought he will retire from the sport and then he came back and fought against Curtis Blaydes and got defeated again and still he wanted more and then he won both of his fights after that and that too stoppage wins and this is hard to predict and i am rooting for Overeem to win.

For those who do not know Jairzinho Rozenstruik, he is a kickboxing legend and held many titles in that discipline and Alistair Overeem is another fighter who is another veteran and i cannot take this fight lightly as both these fighters will go for the kill and i am going with Jairzinho Rozenstruik because of his young age and his experience in the kickboxing arena and he does have legit knock out power.

[ene1980]

I just watched a few of his fights and Jairzinho Rozenstruik does have really quick hands for a heavyweight and his left hook is a knockout punch and i have seen him knockout opponents with a right overhand too and he does have some nasty low kicks and most of his knockouts are with his hands in kickboxing and leg kicks for setup and now i am a bit confused about the outcome and let the best fighter win .
