MMA (Mixed Martial Arts)

rest of the card is rather disappointing

i reckon if sean doesnt catch merab early its going to be a long night

Ortega Lopez looks like a fun one

I'm never interested in the ladies fights
Suga/Merab is going to be a battle. Merab is going to have to close the distance, Suga has sleep time power and reach for days.

yup, i cant recal merab ever being rocked, cejudo landed some clean shots on him and he nomnom'd them pretty well

if suga catches him coming in we will see how good that chin is... i dont think he will be as loose on entry as aljo was when he got clipped tho.

chito took all of sugas shots well too

Remember, a counter punch doubles the force... we will have to see if that power is still there when suga is boxing vs countering
 
This was really cool but I reckon you had to be there to really appreciate it.

Valentina is just a monster. Merab looked good but I think Sugar made him look better than it should have been. The guy was nowhere and looked super flat. Off day perhaps.

Zulhuber and Ribovics was a phenomenal fight, and my pick for best of the main card.
 
Was a good card...competitive fights except for the main events actually.

Y'all see the cut Aldana took in the last undercard fight? It was like down to the bone by the end after getting a couple more rounds of punches in the face. Crazy.

That was probably one of the best fights of the night IMHO - can't believe it was an accidental headbutt that opened her up like that!

Lopez v Ortega was great!
Grasso v Shevchenko was okay - felt like Grasso just didn't throw too much offensively as she could but Shevchenko stuck to her gameplan like a beast
Suga v Merab was a bit boring but it was great to see how Merab effortlessly climbed into Suga's head throughout the fight! Was a bit strange of Herb Dean to keep pushing the guys to 'work' but otherwise, Merab just manhandled Suga. Suga definitely looked as though he was waiting too much for an opening instead of throwing more front/side kicks to open Merab up.

The Sphere was one hell of a show!
 
told you guys that o malley was overrated...

can crusher + dana white privilege

I honestly don't agree. I think the fame and hype around some fighters (Sugar, Izzy, Connor) can sometimes prove to be a thorn because when they lose it somehow is a bigger deal than when another fighter loses.

You don't see people claiming Ortega is overrated because he lost to a relatively unknown guy? Or is Volk overrated when he lost to Topuria..

It is the game man, Sugar is a phenomenal fighter, but Merab had his number and honestly Sugar looked out of it. He absolutely dismantled Merab's partner a year ago, so no reason to think he can't handle a wrestler.
