eagle eye

Best opponent Amanda has faced, I'd like to see a rematch sometime.

Really disappointed there,I thought Nunes would strike. She is more vulnerable than I thought.

Would have to be a long time in the future though. GDR's grappling is just totally inadequate. On the feet she definitely has the measure of Nunes, but a rematch anytime soon would just look exactly the same.

Knew randomine would have enough for Nunes on the feet did not think she'd play dead on the ground tho. Good scrap while it lasted

I thought the Shevchenko fights were a lot closer & a better watch. De Randamie is an awkward opponent for Nunes & that's all I can really say about her after it. I think Valentina would beat Nunes if she performed like that.

mangobob

At least we can be fairly sure that the co-main will be be a better spectacle.

She already did beat her imho. Bullet has her number for sure.

This should be good Holloways chin will fall off a cliff sometime, maybe tonight?

Yeah, my mind has been changed. Think Volkan might do to Max what Dustin did. I hope I'm wrong and Max produces another masterclass and cements his position as the GOAT featherweight.

GDR has lost two similar fights to Nunes, there will not be a third.

mangobob

10 9 to Volkan imo.

mangobob

close but 20 18 Volkan for me.

Johner

Volkanovski has got his tactics spot on, hard to see Max turning this around now.

MikeyGorse

Volkanovski ahead surely

Yeah, needs a KO and probably doesn't have the power

mangobob

Rd 3 clearly won by Volkan. 30 27

I expected this fight to be a barn burner, kinda disappointed.

Really? I think its a great fight. Its everything the last fight wasn't. All its missing is some knock downs, but both of these guys are so durable.

MidlanderMan

This fight playing out as the touch and go snooze fest I expect the main event to be.

eagle eye

Well I told you all about this guy before his first UFC fight. He is something special. Regardless of the outcome he will be highly respected after this fight. I think he is up by three rounds to one.

MidlanderMan

I really just think Max is being too timid after the DP fight at 155.

mangobob

Fantastic fight. I think Volkan has taken it. Best guess he wins 3 rounds to 2.

MidlanderMan

48-47 AV.

Max lost this fight, he should be confident about taking the rematch handily.

Not much of a spectical.

eagle eye

Magnificent performance from Alexander. Absolutely delighted for him.

50 45??

50 45??

MidlanderMan

Whatever judge scored it 50-45 needs to be taken out and shot.

Judges in Vegas are, routinely, retarded.

Outstruck him easily on strikes landed in every round.

Did you see the graph of the strikes per round? He hit more than Max in every round

mangobob

Max is everything a champ should be. Weirdly he has gone up even higher in my estimation watching him handle that defeat. Just class.
