Strange that UFC did not edit poster. Masvidal vs Edwards wont fight due to Masvidals injury (which is unknown). UFC would better put that poodle, sorry O'Malley on the poster.

This event is one of rare cases, when every fight in main card is worth watching. Specially lightweight fight. Lightweight imho is most competitive weight in UFC right now.

UFC 269: Oliveira vs. Poirier
December 11, 2021, at T-Mobile Arena in Paradise, Nevada, United States, part of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area.


I just have to see this fight! Oliveira is still very dangerous and he can definitely achieve a lot more, but in my opinion his best time is behind him. Poirier, on the other hand, is on the wave and, driven by successes, should defeat Oliveira. It will definitely be a great fight!

^  Yup definitely a good card this weekend.  But ai hope it’s worth the PPV after what the Fight Night with Font vs Aldo showed.  It wasn’t really that much in name value but the bouts itself and how they turned out were really good.

Here’s a vid.  Wink  One of the things I like forward to at every PPV event.

But the match ups are kinda chalky tho from a betting perspective.  It could be a parlay type of card.  Dunno.. 

Match up to watch is Bruno Silva vs Jordan Wright.  Lol.  It prolly won’t reach R2.  Cheesy

The big event is this weekend! I'm really looking forward to this fight night. Ryan Hall, Poirier vs Oliveria, and to be honest a stacked card right down to the preliminary fights. I don't think I'll be placing a bet on the main event though, unless I go for the odds on Oliveria as I do believe its much closer than a lot of people think.

But I'm especially glad that I was right about Clay Guida, "a caveman", as he is called sometimes. Few people believed in his victory, but I did. Smiley I like betting on the underdog. Now I regret that I didn't bet on Chris Curtis. I just didn't have the balls. And he won! Damn.
Personally, I think Guida's win is the most impressive win of the night. I know Aldo absolutely outclassed Font in the main event, but I was definitely more impressed with Guida getting the win. I can't say I would have put money on him winning that fight. Impressive stuff.

Rob Font vs Jose Aldo

Jose Aldo's performance was really great, I can say he surely dominated Rob Font from that fight, I really think Aldo has outclassed Rob Font when it comes to boxing, at 1st round Aldo was really great in countering Font, then Font adjusted and gave faint punches to Aldo, but it not lasted I think if Rob Font continue that Faints he is catching Aldo with that adjustments but he didn't pursue that and Jose Aldo then starts to give leg kicks that outbalance Font, I say Aldo's leg kicks were superb, but Rob Font is not really checking Aldo's leg kicks he isn't prepared but Aldo'didn't used his leg kicks in winning he outmatched Font with boxing and that is really amazing.

I missed the fight card but after seeing the results, i am surprised that Jose Aldo is still winning fights and he will once again fight for the title and probably win the belt at 135 pound division. Another surprise was Clay Guida still fighting and winning the fight by submission, if i watched the fight i would have placed a bet against him as he is in the fight game for a long time and was on a loosing streak and another fighter is Mickey Gall who had the hype defeated CM Punk and now he is on a loosing streak.

I mean, even after the Conor loss, Aldo has been a threat in that division. He has never really fallen that much imho. and I really thought Gall had the chops to do good in the UFC, but I was wrong.


Yup but match ups he’ll be having after Riddell will be way tougher now.  That light weight top 10 is stacked!  And Aldo isn’t really that old of you look at it.  He’s prolly a bit past his prime but not really washed...  Still a top 5 guy at 135 and even 145 imho.

No no, def not washed out, but I was referring to the fact that lighter divisions tend to have their prime fighters at a much younger age than the heavier divisions. Now, don't kill me about this, I might be talking out of my ass, but I think it's because of the pace of fighting in the lighter divisions? Correct me on this, please.

Gotta hand it to Fiziev, pulling out that spinning wheel kick...that takes some balls to do. But when it gets pulled off, it's an instant highlight. Also, Aldo is on a mini winning streak. That man is still going strong after going past his prime years (due to the weight calls he's in).

Although I did not have the opportunity to watch the match live, I watched the whole card without looking at the results. There were very surprising results on the main board. Jamahal Hill TKO's Jimmy Crute in 48 seconds, just 2 hooks and that's it. Fiziev's spinning kick was very impressive. Although Santos started the match very well in Leonardo Santos-Guida match, Guida made a comfortable comeback afterward, Santos gasped in 2 minutes, wasn't he ashamed to go to the cage with this cardio, what was the problem?

In the main match, there was a very enjoyable mutual rivalry. The winner was Aldo. His hits with his right arm were very strong.

Anyway for a just a Fight Night event the matches were really good!  There were 4 performances of the night, all finishes.

It could even be better than UFC 269.  I feel like it’s not gonna be worth it for a PPV.

She's sexy alright but I don't wanna end up a battered husband.   Cheesy

With the personal stuff going on, she tells everything like an openbook in the media like when they are broke and had to take a loan for a house. Things like this often restrain an individual from performing. The good side is that Mallory is not a volume striker, maybe she can win. But Mallory is patient in finding an opportunity to throw a big shot. She can wrestle too like Montserrat, she should even be the fav.

That body could be a death sentence to any husband that may break her heart, but she is surely sexy and amazing but you are right her opponent is well rounded with striking and sure can wrestle as well but please don't google search Mallory Martin sexy it is NSFW,

But upon reviewing the records and stats of both fighters I can say that Mallory Martin, not the NSFW one, but the fighter he can surely sneak a takedown or destroy Cheyanne in the stand-up, but I didn't make a bet for this event right now,

But I am just interested in the main event and I think Jose Aldo can sure give us a good show against Rob Font this is my previews post on why I think Jose Aldo will win against Rob Font

Quote
Rob Font VS Jose Aldo

I think this is the only fight worth looking at, Rob Font, sure have good striking, and have good takedown defense but getting a match with Jose Aldo I think he doesn't have what it takes yet, this is just my opinion, you can say that Aldo has many experiences but that fight with Cody Garbrandt looks awesome, but that is the only fight remember about him, but with Jose Aldo, he has fought great opponent like Conor McGregor, Alexander Volkanovski, Petr Yan, Max Holloway, even though he lost to those fighters I think the experience would surely be paid off by just fighting that opponent, and against Rob Font, this will surely surface, when he fought Marlon Vera a technical striker, I think he might do that again against Font when Jose Aldo fought Petr Yan he Savage kicks his front leg that Yan shifted to southpaw, but Yan is so good of a boxer that he still beats Aldo if he can be done that to Font and Rob Font style would crubble because of that then Aldo will sure win this, Stake odds for this fight 1.67 for Rob Font and 2.17 for Jose Aldo but I will go with Jose Aldo.

There is another sexy fighting kitten on fight day hehehe. I reckon some of you might have seen her before as Cheyanne Buys. However, she is presently now Cheyanne Vlismas hehehe. It appears that she was having marital problems and has divorced her husband. She also had the coronavirus only last month and also appears to still be recovering while accepting the fight.

This is a sad prediction, however, I predict Cheyanne to lose vs. Mallory Martin and the fight might not go to the decision.

^  Yup...  That was the talk around MMA Twitter.  There were some guys saying that JP Buys messed up but then again there were a couple of guys teasing some ‘Derron’ is gonna be cheering for Cheyanne Vlismas.  I wanted to ask what they knew but didn’t.  I didn’t want go be that guy prying around other people’s personal lives.

Anyway Azamat Murzakanov vs Jared Vanderaa was pulled from the event.  Vanderaa wasn’t medically cleared to fight.  And looking at the tale of the tape, it could’ve been a good underdog spot for him.  He is yuuuge.

This is what's good about engaging in conversation and exchange of different opinions, I think it is really great and I surely learn a lot from Welsh, especially the community on this thread, knowing different fighters that I don't have any idea, and knowing something with the fighters I though I already know about, this is the kind of things what a healthy engagement of opinion, you would surely gain knowledge,

A good wrestler usually does get the advantage, however Adesanya proves that a good takedown defense is good enough, you don't necessarily need good wrestling skills to avoid being taken down. As we know, generally when you have a pure striker versus' a wrestler the wrestler usually not only out performs them on the ground, but also out performs them in the stand up because the pure striker is a little hesitant, and wary of the take down, and therefore stops throwing.  

Honestly, this is how Khabib Bested most fighters, and because Khabib Nurmagomenodov is known for being very dominant in the ground game, and Khabib's Opponent known how he works with his takedown, pretty much his opponent will always be cautious in readying their takedown defense, but pretty much they surely do some mistakes in underestimating Khabib in the stand-up.

However, what I'm trying to put an emphasis on is being well rounded, since not many fighters can say they're both exception at one thing, but also good enough to avoid most issues presented in the other thing. For example, Justin is great because he can do both, Khabib was exceptional because he could do both, Khamzat Chimaev hasn't really had the chance to demonstrate this at the moment, at least I haven't seen too much of his stand up. Admittedly, I haven't watched all of his fights as I missed some of his earlier ones. Though, I don't think he's been tested by a well enough rounded fighter to be getting behind the hype. I actually think the UFC are desperate for someone who can replace Khabib, and they would love it to be Khamzat since he actually does a bit of calling out, and a bit of talk.

Chimaev is very likelly the future star of the UFC, all I'm asking is he gets tested by a well rounded fighter before he gets a title shot. I think someone like Justin or someone with similar skillset would be a brilliant test before giving him a title shot. Though, I'll be honest there isn't too many fighters in Welterweight that would have the skill set or at least the all roundness of Justin. I guess putting him up against a pure wrestler like Brady, but I don't think Brady is good enough for one, and his gas tan is suspect. Maybe, I'm being unfair, and asking for a real test when it doesn't really exist in the division, and really only Usman has that all roundingness to him.

Well, you should check out his older fights especially the Ikram Aliskerov fight he surely beat up the combat sambo champion World Championship 2016, World Cup Championship 2014, 2015, and European Championship 2017 Aliskerov was out cold when Chimaev hits him with a solid jab, that is only his jab that is why I could say the power of his strikes is phenomenal, but even though Ikram Aliskerov needs a well-known fight, I think this is enough, to say the least, but I have to agree that Khamzat Chimaev still really needs a fight against a well-rounded fighter, before proceeding to a title match, but yes Kamaru Usman is the only man that I know with that Caliber, but Khamzat really wants to fight that badly he surely wants to fill the gap of his absence in the past, that is why he is very eager to get his early fight, even with an interval of a week.

I mean just being able to communicate to the vast majority of the fans would be an advantage. I'm actually surprised this isn't part of their training. I would think that Dana would be interested in offering incentive for learning English, because it allows the fighters to build their brand more. I know the UFC or MMA for that matter isn't all about English speakers, I just think its another tool to the tool belt.

Let me show you an example of goal-oriented person. Khabib (arent you all tired of him? Smiley) is an example of a person who has learned English, because it would help his MMA career.

Check out this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lbRf2eyWHw (switch on subs). 2012 and he barely knows a bunch of English words. And on the part of scale lets put any of his interview of pre-post fight interviews in late of his career for example. Total difference.

A guy in 5-6 years managed to learn English to be able to communicate nearly with everyone.

Petr Yan is also a funny example. He is probably just busy learning English, but when he speaks, I feel shame Cheesy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=haW3mcpuix4
