De Paula looks bigger than Paula Macias... 

Both are about the same in the looks department. They are cute  - but nothing exceptional.

As a 2nd Degree Blackbelt let me just say that Tae Kwon Do is the most ******** traditional martial art of them all. Judo is legit if you incorporate elements of it like the wrist control, trips, and throws, but you can't fight with just judo. Especially sport judo.

I disagree with DamienHandel420  -- any martial arts can work in MMA - thats why its called MIXED martial arts 
But De Paula had Mayra Buena Silva training her  which is also her girlfriend.  
When you have a lot in your favor -- huge advantage !! 

Pauline Macias did not use her transitions correctly. After that huge Judo throw -- immediately rain down elbows on her nose and mouth of de Paula.    BIG MISTAKE!!! 

Sometimes these girls dont want to hurt their opponents... They have to be vicious and brutal like Rhonda Rousey and Amanda Nunes have been.

Gloria De Paula just put in an excellent and dominant performance in her clear UD victory against Pauline Macias... She was too long, too strong, too skilled and ultimately had a better all round game... Really enjoyed watching her aggressive performance and seeing some spite with her knee shots to the stomach of Macias, along with the sneaky sharp elbows... I think she is UFC ready... Sign her up Dana 🤔🥊👊👍

selling bet tips reminds of the guys that used to go on tv with infomercials and claim you can make millions flipping houses or some other ********. if they are so good at what they are selling why not just make their money that way? same with betting.

Mixed Martial Arts is MIXED martial arts no matter how you shake that bag up...

Predictions: 2 of 5 Winners, 0 Perfect, 100 Points   |   Tied for 565th

several fights have shown you can incorporate or mix in through transitions different moves of traditional martial arts. -  Cung Le was on the top of the game for years for mixing up a good dose of Sanda, Taekwondo, Judo to get some of the most amazing knockouts for years. 

I like Tony Ferguson because he uses Jeet Kune Do - Bruce Lee martial arts, with trapping hands with muy thai elbow strikes and boxing uppercuts. Wing Chun kung fu is the basis.  


It all depends how skilled the fighter is and how the put it all together.  Even Khabib mixing his sambo with American wrestling and BJJ together.  Khabib is  very beatable but no one did what they should. 

the other thing -- Why havent others try to copy Khabib moves exactly ? I mean if I was a female fighter-- I would triangle girls legs and ground n pound.

How do you score that round? Cota had more control but did nothing with it, Maximov was gifted a TD and wasted his opportunity to win.
