I predict no one wins because a bunch of chicks are fighting.
I’ll wait a week and watch Canelo v GGG.
Prelims on Fox Sports 2 because of golf.
Sorry, Impy, I’ve been a bit busy with hurricane prep, haven’t had much chance to think about the fight card.
I’ma go with Schevchenko, Cejudo, and Melendez.
Not sure if any of these fights have already happened yet or not, just turned the TV on.
You in FL? Stay safe!
Sarah McMann just got tapped by Ketlen Vieira!
I may do a thread on that, given the success of the Mayweather/McGregor thread. UFC next week too, maybe do them together in one thread.
Yep, 25 miles east of Pensacola, about 50 miles north of the Gulf, watching closely.
Little Heathen dominates Melendez, who was making his featherweight debut.
That was painful to watch. I wonder if his leg was actually broken.
Dos Anjos looking good at 170, taps out Magny.
Dos Anjos
I’m going with Stevens this time-
And that’s all i know on this card- I see there are 3 sets of women fighting this time? No thanks- Hopefully the UFC doesn’t go 50/50 -
who won that one? I’m surprised Stevens dominated? He’s good- but menendez looked fantastic last i saw him?
Stevens hurt Melendez’s leg early on in the first round. Melendez couldn’t recover but he was able to last the fight. I think one of the judges scores was 30-25.
That was an impressive win.
Stay safe Chris! At least you are on the west side of the storm. Hopefully, it won’t be too bad for your area.
ah ok- explains why stevens was able to dominate then-
Stephens took the decision, 30-26, 30-25, 30-36, total domination, devastated Gilbert with leg kicks
