Saki got derailed fighting lesser quality opposition than Pereira has. Say what you want about Michaeliladis and Silva, they combine for over 30 MMA victories. Saki’s opposition wouldn’t even reach half of that I believe. And I’m a big Rountree fan.

@Noxx do women count. Liz Carmouche made her UFC debut in the title fight.

im pulling riddell even after the loss i think hes the better striker i think turner has more ways to finish better length and a better ground game but i think we just see a kickboxing match the whole fight with riddell winning the dance as i find him to be the more calculated striker

I am real scared about the size disparity for Riddell.
I took a look at the Mularkey fight, it's more competitive than I remember it being.

@theearaser no tape watched but the lean is riddell. I think turner is scary good but I don’t trust the chin here. Now, saying this knowing riddell has 0 ufc finishes but he hits hard and Jalin has been ko’ed a lot for how young he is. He can most definitely beat riddell but I think riddell is the better striker. The size difference is insane tho

Turner is 180+ by the time he gets in the cage.

similar story line, too lmfao. There was an interview with perreira saying that he worked at a bike shop and refused to give up on his dream for fighting. I think it is great that someone else thought of it haha.

Ridell is a huge 155er so probably around the same weight

Ya he’s quite big for the weight class. I remember someone saying that’s the reason his cuts are always tough

This is one of two fights I'm still not entirely sure of. Turner is not really a technical striker, but he has power, good frontkicks, a solid ground game and great takedown defence. Riddell has great fight IQ, also has solid grappling and is a very technical yet methodical striker. However, he's a very stationary fighter and gets hit a lot in his fights, Which could benefit a fighter like Turner. Riddell being so stationary is why I lean more to Turner. The fact that Riddell is a dog and always brings the fight is what makes this pick so hard for me. His fight against Mullarkey and Dober are good examples of that. Turner's reach is the deciding factor here and I think it will be problematic to Riddell. I have Turner to win right now. I may still change it.

As for Riddell im not sure. Jalin happened to post a vid on twitter back after the Malarky fight and he was like 182. I mean 6'3" 182 fighting at 55 seems like a hell of an advantage. don't know how much Brad puts back on though.

If parleys are going to be shattered, that's the fight that's going to do it.  I wouldn't mind a pickem by the time fight night rolls around.

True, I totally forgot about her. There may be more fighters I didn't think of. I had more fighters in mind, but they needed 2 fights to get the title shot. Jiri is one of those fighters.

Yeah, it really is. I really wonder what Riddell's gameplan is for this fight.
