@BRE. He is forced to be a warrior. Anderson Silva only wants to collect his paychecks from the UFC while his body can take it, I reckon hehehe. He has a family to feed and bills to pay hehe.

I cannot believe Anderson Silva is still fighting. It was just a few months ago when he last fought. He looked pretty good in his last fight so he might win with all that experience.

Anderson is a true warrior, just like you I cant believe it... He is 44 years old and he is competing against younger guys in a very demanding sport. In this occasion Anderson is more than 10 years old than his opponent... but we'll see how the fight goes.

With all the defeats and the controversy over the use of steroids, his name continues to have weight in the sport.

seen Namajunas fight ferociously but her opponent this time has much experience over the number of fights. she has the reach advantage and has the boxing skills though.  it would be a disaster if she gets mounted. as long as she can avoid the take downs, she will win the fight.

^  Still Namajunas beat JJ twice.  JJ also beat Andrade which could make Namajunas on top of the heap imo.  The thing tho is the event is in Brazil, making it hostile territory for the champ.  If the event was in neutral ground, I think the lines would be slightly in Namajunas favor.

Anyway I got Namajunas at 2.14 a week ago.  Grin

Rose Namajunas vs Jessica Andrade

Joanna Jędrzejczyk's skillset improved since moving to the united states to train at american top team in florida. Her health, physical conditioning and weight cuts however suffered as she consumed american food, which is far inferior and less healthy on average than european food. This makes it difficult to measure Rose Namajunas success via her two wins over JJ due to fluctuations in JJ's health.

Andrade posted an impressive KO win over Karolina Kowalkiewicz where both stood toe and toe and exchanged punches. Rose however is unlikely to do this being a well schooled technical kickboxer who typically does not brawl or engage in fire fights with opponents.

This fight could easily resemble Cory Sandhagen vs John Lineker back in april 2019. I think Rose will win the stand up kickboxing battle using her reach, technique and unorthodox style. Andrade's best chance to win could be with her explosive wrestling if she can get the fight to the ground consistently enough to win rounds or finish.

If I had to make a prediction I would say Rose wins.

More videos for the coming event this weekend.  Smiley  I'm rooting for Namajunas.  She's such a humble, sweet girl, it's hard not to root for her.  And she did win vs JJ twice...  Somebody Andrade lost to in the past.

Awesome main event!  I'd like to see Cerrone get a match up vs Gaethje, Ferguson or McGregor next please.  Grin

Let's put everything in one thread for continous discussion on news, updates, rumors and whatever in between events.  Doing each event per thread makes it hard and fragmented.

Cheers.  Smiley

Gonna update the post below for each event and go on as usual.
