I was hoping that Waterson would draw either Rose or Tecia next, so I'm excited for this bout! More exposure for both Rose and Michelle, too. In a FOX main event, the winner (or potentially both girls) could get another big boost. Should be an excellent fight.

I think this fight goes deep with a razor close decision for whoever. Kinda leaning towards Rose by being bigger and likely the slicker of the two on the mat. Michelle has momentum though.

@AlexTheCuckhold after multiple and various wars and genocides against them ( from the Teutonic pagan conquests / the Great North war / the Soviet suppression) they have retained and kept their unique culture, language(nation wide fluency/litreacy, which is alot more than most Scots or Irish could say. Also impressive is that the teaching of their langauge and customs were banned fully during the Soviet era, with serious punishments fof breaking the rule - considering its full extent and literacy rate today illustrates even more how strong souled they are ) and fighting spirit, they still suffer (in Lithuania) from economy stagnations and poverty among other issues, but mostly they are a really wholesome and unique peoples, with huge potential and really good souls ( i have many friends from there, so i may suffer from a bias..)

At their peak they were leaders of a "Lithuanian Grand Duchy" , go read up on it, it was an oustanding nation while it was alive

Prediction: wrong Waterson-Gomez wrong Decision

She has a more rounded out game better killer instinct, equal or similar momentum(regardless of loss), and improves as the fight goes on, also ufc stage experience edge (slight size adv). She lacks in physical power and speed compared to Karate hottie, stamina may be debatable, its kind of coin toss, Hotties physical capacities and strength and grappling defense may get her the w but she may have to work hard for it, Rose has "shark smells blood" instinct which i think could steal her it with right opening, although hotties stand up will be too much for rose if she is not well conditioned and disciplined with defense, as it goes further, ( although rose is no slouch in stand up )scramble and clinch /fence wise rose would have the edge i think, thats where she wins for me, but Hotties physical strength / fast twitch explosive capability may allow her to muscle rose in the grappling, and bully her as the fight wears on, so again tricky to call, Hottie is rightful favorite your welcome for the comment likes, now go ahead and give your insight Lord Alex "we are not worthy"

Belgium has high quality and availability of kickboxing, why dont you go and do some to compliment your bjj ? It will straighten you out a little too, something you need

Karate Hottie!!!

Prediction: wrong Waterson-Gomez wrong Decision

I've been in love with the karate hottie for what seems over a decade. The ring girl/Toddy Thai box fight girl (felice herig was in too)finally getting main line press is great and well deserved. She that badass who makes me go 6 to 12 every time I see her. Love seeing her fox sp1 show. She is great and I love her. If you root against her you Can go first yourself with the burning fist of Satan.

@wasteland. I love you But you're young or new to this. Karate been big in woman mma and owns the stage. I'd say that's more why Rose (who I live too) lostvto Esparza

If my future boo loses, that won't be that reason.

Waterson is the slight underdog on betting sites so that is agood pick there.

Prediction: wrong Waterson-Gomez wrong Decision

I'll start this by saying I really like Rose as a fighter. She has a very complete game and is just generally a scrappy fighter. I also begun looking at this fight with Rose in mind as someone I would likely lean given the power (nothing amazing but substantial) in her strikes and her gameness in grappling scrambles. Rose is someone who is incredibly variable when it comes to her mentally leading in to a fight and of course her performance due to that mental state. Waterson I believe is significantly more mentally strong and will be able to steer the course and force Rose to concede positions and the momentum of the fight. We know Waterson is with JacksonWink and they will have gameplanned the **** out of Rose, so that also factors into my thinking. I see the fight playing out with a competitive first round followed by Rose conceding the lead in terms of scorecards and who controls the fight.

easy money

Prediction: wrong Waterson-Gomez wrong Decision

I think its not an easy fight for either girl, there very similar. Rose is bigger and has a hell of a jab, i think on the feet there close i think waterson is more athletic with better defense and better kicks to establish range. Rose is no slouch on the feet either shes big and fights long for the weight her jab is slick. On the ground i think there is a noticeable advantage for waterson I hear people saying rose lol but they clearly need to watch more tape. Rose is good on the ground but waterson is more flexible has better positional grappling she has the ability to scramble more and passes better.. The biggest factor here is the mental part, rose is very weak minded and once things dont go her way she gives up much like anthony johnson. I think the ufc is pushing hard for michelle waterson to be the next big thing. Its a 60/40 fight in my eyes but im going with waterson and so is every major hanicapper in the sport. Casual fans will bet najamaunas but big bettors and successful handicappers all picked waterson at like an 93% pick rate so easy money plus the slight underdog money makes this a no brainer in my eyes.. WATERSON
