Karolina - I hope that her was last fight. For whatever reason she isn't competitive with the top fighters anymore and she took a beating
I was only a few rows back plus the fighters all exited right past where I was sitting. Her face was a mess.
It was obvious in the first round the damage was serious. I thought the doctor might have stopped it, but her corner should have.A broken orbital bone. She's stuck in NZ until surgery is done
Jake Matthews - because of these regional cards I've seen him fight 4 times now. Sometimes it appears he's all boxing or all wrestling. This is the first time he appeared to comfortably flow from one to the other
Jimmy Crute - that chain wrestling was spectacular.. particularly for someone from this part of the world. Hiring Dan Kelly full time was a great move

My wife has suddenly gotten into this stuff which is good for me. But she thought Karolina was fighting her first fight. I said she was once a championship contender and my wife didn’t believe me. She look led that bad it’s hard to disagree.
She came out to the ring in tears. Something is very wrong.

Would like to see the striking stats for Hooker v Felder. Many are saying it's a hometown decision but I've also heard Hooker actually landed more in the 5th. Felder certainly looks more damaged post fight.

Adesanya defends his title this weekend
I'm confident he'll win.. too fast and too elusive for Romero. Romero's crazy bursts of energy are always a threat though
I actually hope there is some wrestling in this match. We haven't seen Israel have to defend that yet, but his camp is very confident they can cope with itAnyone picking Romero?
Also does anyone think Joanna has a chance vs Zhang? I'll be cheering for Jedrzejczyk but can't see her competing

Genuine question? Does he come out to the Lion King intro? AHHH DEN SAAANYA!!!!!
Feels like a missed opportunity if not.

I love Yoel. When he was called for cheating I was gutted. Happy when he was cleared obviously. He is a monster. He's a gargoyle carved out of granite. Olympic silver medal wrestler, flying knees, power punches. He's got a lot in the tank too. But Israel is too quick and too pinpoint.
I'm on team Joanna. It's more interesting with characters in the women's divisions. She is one few girls that gets cerebral on the mic. She speaks perfect English and says cool things. Sometimes it comes off sometimes it doesn't. But she has a personality when not a lot of the other girls do. I see she got bolt-ons recently. Not sure why any girl fighter would want that while they are active.

Romero and Zhang for me

@raznomore Wow, you are right. Why on earth would a UFC fighter want them? Surely they are a hinderance in the ring.

Yeah it seems counter productive
Pure speculation, but I would assume it's related to her ex-fiance cheating on her (she claims that's why she lost her belt)
Other fighters calling her gollum probably didn't help -

@Duluth they call her Gollum?? That’s rough.
She has the best coloured eyes I’ve seen in a while but when you’re walking around with A Brent Tate chin I’d imagine self esteem may be an issue.

Here's Penne offering her a ring at a weigh in
I think she claims it's about JJ's crouched weigh-in pose. But it was really bitchy and she wasn't the only female fighter calling her Gollum

That’s a bit shit and I usually love a good sledge

Is he actually a JAFA? I thought he was from Wanganui

Zhang looked drained after the face off. I saw just now she's still cutting weight.
That's enough for me to put a sneaky $20 on JJ for KO/TKO or SUB

I'm starting to lean this way too.. and JJ is looking the best she has for years
I was surprised at how big Adesanya looked next to Romero too
