Hail Mary Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, Buckrock101 said: Jmo, Zabit has all these fun tools, but he doesn't look at home when it becomes a scrap. That's what I saw in the latter part of the Bochniak fight, at least. Kattar does one thing well (boxing), but he does that really well. He likes a scrap too (obv since he's from Boston), so unless Zabit keeps it super technical, similar to how Moicano stayed calm and went heavy on leg kicks, I like Kattar here. He's definitely not an In fighter. I went back and watched the highlights of the Bochniak fight, I see what you're saying. EDIT: Page 420.

Buckrock101 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Also, it's not so much of a slight on Zabit, more of me being super high on Kattar. he's the best kept secret at 145 lbs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he came across as a d.ck. I am not mad that he has the title now, and would definitely be wanting him to beat Colby, but I still am not a huge fan.

Hail Mary Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Doing a little research on Zabit, I found this video. Absolutely amazing story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He always comes off really disingenuous. He puts on the tough guy act and doesn't fight the same way. Just my opinion. Idk if I'd go so far to say he's a tool, be he's a little unlikeable to me. Pretty much this, he has 1 finish in his last 9 fights and yet struts his stuff like he goes out there to fight for the finish 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zabit has so many more weapons on the feet and good movement, will Kattar be able to cut off the cage/crowd him? Pretty much for every reason Buckrock said. I think Kattar is going to pressure him to the fullest and make it ugly. He does that, I think he can pull it off. Huge Kattar fan too though so I'm kinda biased. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand Kattar has way better Boxing than the likes of Bochniak or Stephens. But a guy like Zabit, with his unpredictability, quickness and diverse kicking ability, along with being a very mobile fighter, can get past someone like him I think. He has good hands too. Maybe he's learned from his fight vs Bochniak and avoids a scenario where it ends up being a scrap. Could be wrong, but we'll see come fight night.

beekay414 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 More impressive stretch... 2nd Round KO vs Darren Till 1st Round KO vs Ben Askren or Unanimous Decision vs Donald Cerrone Split Decision (LOL) vs Gunnar Nelson Unanimous Decision vs Rafael Dos Anjos 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted August 11, 2019 Share Posted August 11, 2019 Cyborg is signing elsewhere but she won't announce where yet. Have a feeling it's going to be Bellator. Good. Give me Cyborg vs Budd. Best fight you can make outside of the UFC right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
