A fresh Mexican crowd for Shevchenko to blame after she loses by decision again.

I mean the second fight was a farce, they gave grasso the most bullshit 10-8 round in the history of the sport for clear reasons.

And i'm a grasso feet enjoyer and a shevshenko hater, but still...

O’Malley built himself up, I would monitor his ego even with that his power is still underrated what am I trying to say? Win for O’Malley, women’s fight is weird matchup, I predict some sort of injury, Shevchenko with the win.

MAIN CARD:
Can't hold anything against O'Malley. Rainbow hair, neon colors, and all. He's been an extremely exciting fighter to watch with great performances and precise striking. I think his speed, reach, and accuracy will be too much for Merab.

I'm indifferent about the result of the co-main. I want a good fight above anything else.

Ortega vs Lopes is going to be a JUST BLEED fight. May the better fighter win. Ortega usually rises to the occasion against anyone who isn't Volk or Holloway. Lopes has shown that he's a killer. It should be a great fight.

Zellhuber vs Ribovics should be fun too. Both are good up-and-coming prospects.

PRELIMS:
Torres vs Bahamondes should be a fun fight. I got Bahamondes.

Chairez vs Van should also be another JUST BLEED fight. Van is coming off a KO loss, curious to see how he bounces back.

Any love for Manuel "El Loco" Torres on the prelims?

I can see Torres winning the fight too. Torres is 3-0 in the UFC so far and Bahamondes is 2-1 iirc. Both guys are tall and long at 155lbs, each with good striking. It should be a fun fight.

I think you're missing some options in the poll.

Gonna be some brawl definitely one to watch. Hoping for another elbow knockout like he did to Motta. If Diego Lopez beats Ortega easily they should feed him Volk.

Indeed. I only did the last 3 fights, and I made the thread before going to bed.

Lmk what others you'd like to see in there and I'll update the poll.

I forget the last time I put bets on a fight it’s too risky anything can happen when it became legalized in Ohio it was so exciting, 10 is a bitch bet but 50 dollar return is good. Drake needs to relax with betting btw

If Chandler loses to Oliveira, everything Conor related will go out the window I think ... Chandler would be done in the UFC. Risky but Chandler has been waiting forever to fight Conor so idk.

Damn I wish they could do this for every event moving forward, but the company would die. That shit looks incredible. I went a few months ago and it's pretty crazy how immersive it is.
