@@sainttrunks1982 Yeah. I'm sure I said her wrestling isn't as good as the grappling (or something similar) but I could see a few takedowns in 2 rounds. Which is why I like her over 3, but 5 would be all X. Yan
@sainttrunks19828 күн бұрын
@@MMAPlay365 l don't think she'll be able to get here down more than once if that. Yan trains at Alpha Male which is a level beyond Ricci's wrestling takedowns. Zhang Weili is the strongest wrestler in W.m.m.a. that's why she was able to get Yan down like that at will.
@MMAPlay3657 күн бұрын
@@sainttrunks1982 You might be right. I think it'll be a comfortable fight though for whoever wins. Either Ricci gets 0-1 takedowns and Yan cruises. Or Ricci hits 3 with plenty of top control time. Who else do you have winning on the card?

Chandlers only ufc wins are aginst a washed tony ferguson and dan hooker..i think charles is a very well deserved favorite here...safest play is probably the under though or fight to end by ko

Ciao is slow...very slow and he has a heavyweight pace. I think Ribero out paces him when's a close split when it should be outright...it is Canada. Ciao lived in Canada 🇨🇦 but just recently moved back to Brazil. New Camp so he should be better but he's stoll not good.

@@takingyourtopknot4311 I agree with Caio at HW. But moving down in weight, shredding excess fat will increase mobility. Like I said in the podcast, look at Cannonier. His speed at MW was nothing like that at LHW or HW. Still though, I'm not desperate enough to part with my cash on this fight. And I don't even trust unders or ITD as much anymore.

Hey 365...Red flags abound with Romanov preparation here...he was at his kids Grappling tournament on Saturday , 365, not 2 days ago! Now that's not a bad thing but you would think a week out you would be in Canada. Secondly. When you look at his training/ hype video's he's not sweating in any of them! Not one! Lastly the man is officially fat. He's not in shape I think he has other revenue streams...He has one foot out the door. SMASH SPOT??

@@hunterruzal There's a few variables here. If Abus wins the fight, it ultimately depends on how tired Brunno gets. I don't think Abus KO's him early it'll be an exhaustion TKO in my opinion. If Brunno doesn't tire as much as I think he will then it'll likely be a decision.
