Never heard of any of them. Speaking of TUF fighters, Saul Rogers is competing at Bellator 200 in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckrock101 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Holloway vs Ortega on for 226. Absolute banger. Both guys have a great chin, love to stand and trade, are super well rounded and have cardio for days. Probably one of the highest level fights the UFC can make right now. Two key factors that I think will decide this fight: 1) how Ortega's chin holds up. It's been incredible in the past, and a big part of his winning streak. against Holloway he's fighting a really accurate striker, who isn't going to fade in the 3rd, 4th, 5th. We need to see if Brian starts to show any damage after wearing Holloway's combos. 2) whether Ortega can force any grappling exchanges. Holloway's TDD is great, and his jiu-jitsu is good, but he's going against one of the best grapplers in MMA. Ortega has the x-factor in that he can finish the fight at any time if it gets close. Holloway finished both Aldo fights by ground and pound, but I'm not sure if it's too smart to follow Ortega to the ground, even if he's rocked. Also I know it's the trend for every champ to call out another champ, and LW has a host of contenders waiting, but I really want to see both of these guys fight Khabib. They both present really interesting matchups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckrock101 Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Lewis vs Ngannou also for 226. Feels funny to say, but Lewis should actually have a cardio advantage in this one. There are a lot of jokes made about his conditioning, but he finished Tybura in the 3rd, Abdurakhimov in the 4th, Browne in the 2nd, Pesta in the 3rd. Whereas Ngannou gassed badly against Stipe in the 2nd. Feel like either Ngannou knocks Lewis cold in the 1st, or Lewis gets the TKO in the 2nd or 3rd via swangin and bangin. Should be fun either way. 226 right now is: Stipe vs Cormier Holloway vs Edgar Lewis vs Ngannou Assuncao vs Font Saki vs Rountree Costa vs Hall Medeiros vs Perry Ridiculous.

Thats a fun HW fight and kind of hoping Lewis wins just for the post-fight interview lol. Should be an awesome and exciting 1st round just sort of hope it ends inside 10 minutes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Smith got cut for her pro-union stance and the work she's doing towards it. The UFC was just looking for a reason to cut her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAW Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Don’t see how you can retroactively rule a TKO once the fight ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
