Ye his TDD is 90% at LW, single legs don't really work on him, you have to catch him off guard with a blast double leg or something like Islam did.

as long as the two title fights remain intact I don't think the UFC will care. it is weird though how a lot of their Australian cards always end up getting ****** up in some way...

Hooker vs Klose would be a good fight to put on here imo. Hooker gets another winnable fight in front of his fans and Klose gets a great opportunity to get into the rankings

Klose tore his acl before he was booked to fight madsen so he’s probably not available

Damn, well another good one would be Hooker vs Bahamondes

Also a fun replacement for that Mullarkey fight would be Frevola

Frevola wins that. Dudes actually low key a killer. His last 2 fights were against 2 undefeated prospects with a 100% finish rate and he KOed both of them in the first round. Other than that what are his losses? A fluke KO to Polo Reyes? Getting dominated by Arman ****** Tsarukyan? (future champ). He beat Jalin Turner and got fluke KOed by one of the most powerful punchers in the UFC in T-Wrecks (probably the hardest hitter P4P). I genuinely think he’s a top 15 level guy

Yeah no Valdez is not a killer. I edited it to prospect, way before you responded too. Idk how you saw that original lol but dude is most certainly not a killer, I got my words a bit mixed up there

People also underrate his chin just because of the McKinney and Reyes ko’s. His chin is actually insane if you go back and watch his fights. Luis pena flying kneed him flush in the face and he ate it like nothing

When he starts brawling is when it becomes a problem. Like that Polo Reyes fight. Otherwise it’s pretty solid

I remember the Frevola vs. Vannata: Lando knocked him down 2 times at the beginning of the fight and the first time Frevola was knocked down I thought he had fallen unconscious, but he kept fighting and in the end the result was a draw (in my opinion Vannata should have won 29-27 ). I thought that Azaitar would win not so much because of the skills but because Ottman has always shown great KO power and if he won by KO it was a very likely scenario. Reyes and McKinney have KO power: Reyes Knocked Frevola in a One-Minute Slugfest Brawl and McKinney caught him with the first combination of the fight in under 10 seconds. But they are KO power fighters, you can get KOed by a good hand when fights a Knockout Artist. Another thing is that a fighter is knocked out on his feet by a fighter like Colby Covington, Travis Lutter or Demian Maia, because those have no KO power. In my opinion Frevola is not "glass chin" it's like calling Bobby Green "chinny" for being Knocked out by Drew Dober, who is tied for the record for most KO wins in the lightweight division.
