pretty much I am very curious in what may happen for this fight, and because of that I am so much excited which might prevail Josh Emmet Strength on wrestling or Calvin Kattar's precise striking and technical distance,

I think the fight will boring since both of them rely on their good puncher and it will distance like you said, so we will only wait which one will fell down first. Emmet could get KO'ed since Kattar have a better chin.

Quote

Another fight that I am anticipating watching was Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone if he's able to win after his losses in his recent fights, or if Joe Lauzon can still make a worth from his 2 years not stepping inside the octagon, this is really interesting I think that with that experience and still active inside the ring can make an advantage against Lauzon,

I wouldn't bet on this fight since it's very gambling to bet an inactive fighters moreover they don't have a good record. Both of them have a good power on ground, this will be close fight and probably the fight wouldn't longer than 3 rounds.

Quote

Another thing is the fighting Kitty Gloria de Paula is worth mentioning and if that beauty can take on Maria Oliveira who now has 12 wins that are out of her 17 fights while de Paula only got 10 fights with 6 wins on it,

Yeah she is really beautiful, but I doubt Gloria de Paula can won. Maria Oliveria have a good strength to KO'ed her.

Emmet is the popular badass and has been cheered by the crowd and that one jab from Josh Emmet has put down Mirsad Bektic on the ground that was 1 huge jab that stun Mirsad Bektic, that was one absolute win from Josh Emmet, and I really feel that Calvin Kattar will surely have a hard time and he surely admits it aswell that Josh Emmet is one tough opponent to crack, and he was right, Mirsad Bektic was knocked out on the 1st round, Sheesh! thanks for sharing this I am now seeing the big picture on how powerful Josh Emmet is,

Yup for his size he def hits hard. And look at the way he's built. Lol. But I still have Kattar and he's still at my top ticket even after weigh ins. So yeah, nothing has changed except Yanez go up one notch and Ramos goes down one notch aa Kelley missed weight.. I'm a tad more confident in Yanez now.

Yup, even though Josh Emmet has the power and Strength feat I think Calvin Kattar can manage that, I think Kattar has the advantage when it comes to striking, but Emmet has the strength in Wrestling so Kattar needs to watch out for those takedowns, pretty much I am very curious in what may happen for this fight, and because of that I am so much excited which might prevail Josh Emmet Strength on wrestling or Calvin Kattar's precise striking and technical distance,

I'm still undecided if I'll be betting on this weekend event. I'm just not feeling the match ups, think there will be a lot of close fights that could go either way. Anyway, predictions:

Josh Emmett
Donald Cerrone
Kevin Holland
Albert Duraev
Damir Ismagulov
Julian Marquez
Adrian Yanez
Jeremiah Wells
Ricardo Ramos
Maria Oliveira
Cody Stamann
Phil Hawes
Kyle Daukaus

Really underrated card in my opinion. There's some absolute wars in those match ups, could we get some absolutely memorable, from top to bottom event back to back? Because last weeks was brilliant from a entertainment perspective.

I'll probably be going with Cannonier, at least betting wise. Prediction will be Izzy. I haven't checked if the odds are up yet, but I imagine it'll be heavily in favour of Izzy. I like Izzy, and I'll be wanting him to win. However, if I do lose...I win, right? That's my line of thinking, plus the odds on Izzy are usually extremely low. Like 1.20-1.40, probably be around there again. Alternatively, I might just give the fight a miss.

Early odds on Adesanya is around 1.27-1.30 and I wouldn't bet on this low odds, but I would bet on him winning by decision that would pay much better.
Odds on Cannonier are from 3.70 to 3.95, and I usually like betting on underdogs with this odds but not this time.
Izzy is one level above Cannonier and he can beat him even on his bad day, so I am looking for some special bets on this fight.

Kattar is durable enough... I think, eerrr I hope so. I got him at top ticket for my lottery. And I have to say, I'm glad that a lot of you guys are coming up to speed and having a feel for what's going on in the UFC. I could tell just from reading all your replies. It was a lot different a couple of years ago.

Here's what my lottery ticket would look like... I haven't made the bet yet as I want to see these guys on the scale. There might be changes. And the lines are from Rollbit. I started going there instead of my Stake account. That account could be bad luck. Lololol. Cheesy

Taken a lot of damage over the years definitely. I've seen it before though, that a fighter who once had a chin, suddenly loses it, and even a strong wind would knock them over. However, Yeah Kattar is a determined fighter, and has the chin to back it up too.

I'm relatively new to the UFC to be fair. I've always stayed away with it as I rather ignorantly thought it was a brutal sport, and didn't like the idea of seeing someone get beat down in a cage. Although, the way boxing went, and then following some podcasts which ultimately led me to watching a bit of UFC, has me hooked. Must be two years now I've been watching? Don't know exactly. I even do BBJ now. Started with the Gracies school thing, that they offer online. Their self defense course.

Big news from UFC, Zabit Magomedsharipov announced he is officially retired now with great 18-1 record in MMA!
He is 31 years old now, an reason for this was many canceled fights and bigger health problems, he is now recovered but not feeling so good for competing like before.
He is not athlete anymore but he is going to stay in MMA, maybe as a coach or helping Khabib in Eagle FC, who knows.

I've heard that Magomedsharipov has a business, a cafe or restaurant, perhaps in his hometown or in a big city in Russia like Moscow or St. Petersburg. Imho, if he likes doing business, let him focus on it. A person should not be training professionally and fight whole life, let him rest and do what he wish to do. It is sad that I wont see him in octagon anymore, because I really liked his John Rambo hairstyle.

So he is finally retiring? I read it somewhere, weeks ago that he wants to pursue a career in medicine. Maybe it was only a rumor then since he mentioned that he will stay in MMA. He could've been one to three fights away from a title shot. Now, people will wonder what would've happened if he was given a title fight. I think he will beat the likes of Brian Ortega but he will be an underdog against Volkanovski and a slight underdog against Max Holloway.

Of course, Emmet is a strong opponent and very dangerous, but Kattar is a fairly accurate fighter and knows how to keep his distance well.

Yup! I think Calvin Kattar will think of something to counter Josh Emmet like he always does, but surely Josh Emmet is one tough bastard to crack and the strength is surely the one that Kattar needs to look for and surely he has just thrown Scott Holtzman around the ring and controlling him with wrestling but I think Calvin Kattar is more technical but he will surely think of something, and men this is one great fight and I am surely curious on what can happen,

Yeah, Jan takes it for me. Jiri probably doesn't hold onto it more than one title defense, and even them I'm not sure he'll be able to defend it once. At least the division is interesting, rather than just one guy holding onto it for a long time. I say the same about Izzy, which I'm a fan of.

I am betting on Israel to win against Cannonier, he is younger, faster, has reach advantage, and I think he is more intelligent fighter.
I do expect fight to go all five rounds and Cannonier could win one or two rounds, but that whole fight card is sick and I can't wait to see some action.

I'll probably be going with Cannonier, at least betting wise. Prediction will be Izzy. I haven't checked if the odds are up yet, but I imagine it'll be heavily in favour of Izzy.

I am fan of Izzy but weight difference is just to big for him, so I don't see him in light-heavyweight division, unless he puts a lot of muscles quickly.

Yeah, it was more of a comment on his dominance in his oroper weight class. I thought the step up was a little ambitious, and while it did take that zero off his record, I must say I do like to see fighters challenge themselves, and be prepared to lose. It was the weight though that made the difference.

This is going to be a good fight, as Cannonier used to be in light heavyweight division. Good test for Izzy, as on the fight day, Cannonier will be much heavier that on weigh-in day

I think Jan Blachowicz could beat him, Ankalaev could beat him, Rakic has a chance and even Jamahal Hill. Wait for him to rise up in the rankings and get his shot. He could just be a match away before a title shot. He'll be fighting Thiago Santos next in a couple of months

I think that light-heavyweight division is becoming very interesting now and I think that Jiri won't be able to keep his belt for long time.
After Jon Jones left this division we see a lot of changes and I don't see anyone who can keep championship title for longer duration of time.
Jiri is good fighter but in his last fight everyone could see so many flaws and he was seconds away to lose that fight.
Both Ankalaev and Rakic are my favorites to challenge and beat current championg Jiri Prochazka.

Frankly, I am disappointed with Glover Texeira performance. He had lost on his field. I could have understood of Prochazka would have KO him, but loosing via submission, when you have a black belt in BJJ, to a guy with only 2 wins by sub among 28... The only thing I liked about this fight was that Glover at his age has enough gas for 5*5min fight.

With Teixera getting old for a fighter at the highest level of MMA, I think what Teixera has done is unbelievable. Even many fighters admired Teixera's show. And as for his defeat via submission, I think it was just a misfortune that was on Teixera's side. And on the other hand, the fact that Jiri was able to compete with Teixera on the ground showed the Prochazka's wrestling level.

Funny notice - when Jon Jones was a champ, he has held title for along period and had numerous title defences. Without him, the belt does not stay long with one fighter. Prochazka, Texeira, Blachowicz. Rakic or Ankalaev have all chances to take belt from Prochazka. Jon Jones defended light heavyweight belt 12 times. Cant imagine if Prochazka would do the same. This shows how good JJ was and how he wastes his talent.

And recently Calvin Kattar has spoken in an interview back on the Rob Font VS Marlon Vera fight on April 30, 2022, and he has said that Josh Emmett is a tough opponent and it will be a main hell of a main event that was he promise,

Of course, Emmet is a strong opponent and very dangerous, but Kattar is a fairly accurate fighter and knows how to keep his distance well.

We'll find out who hits harder on the night as I'm not quite sure. Although, what I'm sure of is Kattar is one hell of a tough bastard. That Max fight will probably forever be in my mind. I don't think it was the greatest fight since it was very one sided, but the amount Kattar took, and was still trying to come forward was absolutely insane.

Kattar has a very strong character, the fight with Max showed how much he can take a punch. But in the battle with Max, it was clear how much Kattar was losing to him in speed.
