🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread

[TopTort777]

I predict Weili wins strongly. I suspect undetectable Chinese steroids hehehehe.

This might sound rude, but according to current situation in Chinese, there are no steroids left there
Everything is used to find a cure against coronavirus. But she will win anyway.

Question to all - how do you feel about women participate in UFC? Personally, I prefer to switch to other channel or do not pay much attention to such fight. I must confess, that I haven't seen at least 1 full women mma fight. I count it like something "wrong".

UFC 213 Yoel Romero VS Robert Whittaker
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rZ4BCziGylA

We can see that Yoel Romero in the first 2 rounds that he is in composure and may even takedown Whittaker, but on the later rounds we can see that Yoel Romero is now exhausted and pretty much his movement is getting clumsy, but this is just their first fight and on their rematch, Whittaker still won but both fighters did a tremendous jobs,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LrN60vGFSAA

Pretty much this fight is more onesided in my opinion, Adesanya surely approach this fight in a more clever way we can all see in his stance that he is watching Whittaker's movement to ready his attack,

With these two videos, I guess this is enough for bettors to make a decision on who they think will win.

Whittaker doesn't look like he has a game plan. He just jump right then throwing punches but doesn't resemble a combo at all. He lasted 2 rounds though.

I'm always reminded by Adesanya and Micheal Page, this two would be a good match. If they could just put them for unification, it would be a good promotion for both Bellator and UFC.

Well, Whittaker is not a good match for Adesanya but I have posted these videos just as a reference for the upcoming fight on the UFC 248 which we can see how both fighters handle Robert Whittaker, and if we could analyze both videos  Adesanya did pretty well and taken the fight in a more smart way.

I would like to see Israel Adesanya win these and I think there is a much bigger probability for him to win than Romero.

I am not sure about your morale standards in watching a sport if woman is participating, this is 2020 and you are talking like this is really strange. I am a fight fan and i do not discriminate and if there is a great fight i will watch.

Weigh ins going on i am waiting to see who will be missing weight, Yoel Romero missed weight couple of times in championship bouts and waiting to see if he will make weight for the third time.

I like women in MMA. Who would not want to watch Claudia Gadhela, Alexa Grasso, Angela Lee, Megan Anderson, Paige Van Zant in the octagon hehehe?

Watch Weili versus Joanna. It might be more exciting than the main event, I reckon.

@Saint-loup. Yes they are making Khabib angry again hehehehe.

WTF!?

Oh yes baby! And I super like it! At first Khabib was cool but when El Cucuy place his belt in the ground, make some fighting stance and talk sh*t he lose his chill. Honestly, I didn't expect what Khabib did at all . Their rivalry gets hotter and I think hotter than McGrogor vs Khabib fight. For sure there will be more drama in this, what I just hope is "jumping off the fence" won't happen again .

^  Gotta love Ferguson man...  That guy cracks me up!    When asked about his funny gloves, he stands up and goes:  'I'm the hit man, dawg.', then followed up by a question about the baseball in his hand, he goes:  'This is for when they run!'.  Lolol.

Other stuff was said in there like Khabib hurting a highschool wrestler during sparring and something about Khabib paying a homeless guy at NY to do push ups and laughing.  Oh...  And it seems Khabib and his friends were cornering Ferguson's family again.  Wow...

Edit:  Almost forgot.  Here are the weigh ins!  Check out that intense stare down between Adesanya and Romero.  I'm a huge Adesanya fan but I fear for the champ.  He could go down.

Edit:  I think the under 4.5 for the co main at 2.10 is good and so is the under 3.5 for the main event at 1.95.

Israel Adesanya vs S Yoel Romero (And still)- What a boring fight! I don't know what's Yoel's mind with his sloppy performance he's just trolling. I know all the fans are disappointed with this fight!

WeiliZhang vs JoannaJedrzejczyk (And still)- This fight is must to watch and also this match should be the "main event" of the evening.

I think Israel took a  clue from Anthony Joshua second fight with Andy Ruiz,  where he has to run like a butterfly and sting like a bee,  if Israel had not done such,  Romero might have won,  Romero wasn't expecting such from Israel,  I guess regardless of what you have to do to win just do it, in as much as you get the desired result

Yeah! I agree with you. The Adesanya vs Romero fight is not as explosive as what I expected . Actually I still remember one of the comments on a group I joined in FB discussing stuff about MMA, he said that it was the most boring title fight he watched. He fell asleep while watching 2x lmao.

On the other hand, it's so amazing that everything is opposite. Zhang and Joanna  brawl until their last breath like two alphas. Look at their faces after the fight, d*mn you can absolutely see the brutality happened especially on Joanna's swollen head .

[tokeweed]

I had mostly the same thoughts on the match but after hearing both sides' interviews at the post fight press conference, I could see that it was more Romero's fault than Adesanya imho.  Adesanya's the champ...  Romero should do more to get that belt.

Co-main event was one of the best fights I have seen in UFC.
Joanna looked like a monster during and after the fight with that thing on her head, but never gave up till the end.

Main event - boring, boring, boring

[bbc.reporter]

@notblox1. Star Trek fans will understand what Weili made of Joanna's head after the fight hehehe.



It also appears that uncle Dana has taken the opportunity to create a new storyboard about Paulo Costa after the boring main event hehe.

Mate I'm not a Star Trek fan but it really makes me cringe every time I saw her face (now even more since you don't resized the pic lol ). I know Zhang got also a damged face but she got worse. She's now a bubble head.

He definitely should. You know what, I think it's always a good idea to matched up fighters which really hate each other because that's where the heat and intensity of every fight came from. If I were Dana, I will set Costa vs Adesanya now and let them settle their trashtalking inside the octagon . Besides, it will benefit him because for sure it will catch a lot of attention from UFC fans all over the world.

On one hand this event (and few following) can be an event just to fill the gap between Adesanya belt fight and Khabibs fight, but on the other, this event is in Brasil and lots of fighters are from the, this can be a KO/bloody night. If only the fighters wish to remind what Brazilian Valetudo was.

The fight between Weili Zhang and Joanna Jedrzejczyk should be the main event. In my opinion and opinions of other people it was the best fight not only at this event but also throughout the history of the female MMA. Both girls showed a huge heart to fight and this picture of Joanna says more than 1000 words.

[YuginKadoya]

Israel Adesanya VS Yoel Romero is not a fun fight but Still, Adesanya won the fight so I am not that disappointed not with the result, but yeah Yoel Romero I don't know if he is just playing around or that is really his fighting style with Adesanya but I am through with that, and moving on with Fight Night 170, but I am really most excited with the UFC 249 and will be waiting for it to really happen.

[tokeweed]

Here's a hilarious one...  So you guys know Adesanya has been saying that Costa is some sort of idiot gorilla, right?  I think he called him something like 'Moronus Buffoonus'.  At first I was like 'wtf' til I saw this vid.

This guy (Kevin Lee) could be one of the most improved fighters in the UFC in the coming years.  He's athletic af and has started training at Tristar under Firas Zahabi during the match below...  Enjoy!

I reckon Dana might be shaking his head vigorously because Khabib versus El Cucuy might be at risk to be cancelled again hehehe.
