Ion is so ******* stupid, that wasn't even an altercation, he straight up grabbed him and this guy always does this. In their first fight with Magomed he walked straight across the Octagon and into Magomed like he was straight up stupid when Bruce announced his name in the introduction.

That's what I mean about cutelaba, I really don't rate him, he always comes flying in close because of his short reach for light heavyweight, also too emotional, and
Jacoby worth a bet as underdog for sure

I personally think it was a well executed plan to get Jacoby fired up and aggressive / emotional. Now he might just walk forward and engage in a fire fight which is exactly what Cutelaba needs him to do. He doesn't want to fight a counter striking Jacoby. He wants the one who's all pissed off barreling towards him. It just might have worked.

@flying_frontkick
I think the move to grab
someone from the neck,
is something like the Stockton Slap!
I think that behind that move he has the
"weight of the disrespect"
that he underestimates him!

Wait. Is everyone expecting Ion to do a stand and bang? He's got pretty good wrestling and most of his wins come from using that as a base. That said I'm really unconvinced on the winner of this bout. It's kind of a coin toss to me.

Reyes has the weirdest physique ever. It's the arms and legs of a heavyweight on the torso of a welterweight. Looks like a poorly customized video game character.

I knew the height difference in the Lookboonmee fight, but seeing the stare down... the size difference is drastic. That worry anyone?

I can see the Bull case for Reyes and I won't be shocked if he finishes Jiri.

@Fish

I've been watching a lot of tape on Jiri, he leaves himself wide open for punches and is very hittable, No Time hit him with some clean punches but he took them. I honestly think this is a 50-50 fight.

Firstly: Dominick Reyes and Jiri Prochazka have the most insane physical contrast ever. Longest torso in the LHW division vs shortest one. Crash Bandicoot vs Lanky Schmidt.

Also, Lookboonmee is definitely at a disadvantage here. I would absolutely hate to see her lose and give up her hype to someone like Sam Hughes, who imho is not of UFC cloth.

Ion Cutelaba is incredibly unlikeable. He's always trying to intimidate people, but he's a very predictable and one dimensional fighter. I hope Jacoby clowns him just like Cannonier once did. It's always fun to see that. 

Stoked to see Jiri Prochazka get the shine in the main event. Hoping he does RIZIN proud, because Manel Kape certainly hasn't done that unfortunately. He has tremendous potential, especially considering the lack of depth at light heavyweight. If you watch his RIZIN fights his evolution is undeniable, yet he's maintained the weirdness that made him so enjoyable in the first place. He is a wildman, but it's not to the point where it's not calculated. The Mo rematch was a good example of that, as well as the Dollaway and Maldonado fights despite the quickness. Hell even the Jake Heun and Bruno Cappelozza fights showed that. I am stoked to see him in the main event and genuinely think he has what it takes to beat a former title-challenger in Reyes. 

Not particularly excited for much else on this card, but that's par for the course with UFC cards as of late. The co-main is fine. And the Merab/Stamann fight has potential. Am excited to see Moggly Benitez, Lookboonme, and the fellow Canadian Bhullar. Not an awful event by any means.

@Flying yeah, me too man. I won't be shocked either way. I do think there's a method to Jiri's madness which could give Reyes fits but nearly equally feel Reyes might just ram a straight left from hell into his face and send him to the land of wind and Ghosts. Hard for me to pick Reyes based on his last performance.

Yeah it's hard to take Ion's shtick seriously when someone so recently shattered him to pieces without breaking a sweat. Like, dude, you should finish a fight on your feet before you bring back the weigh in antics.  

edit: I am shocked and mortified to realize the second Ankalaev fight was six months ago. Time isn't real.

Jonathon Pearce just cancelled his fight. he just posted on IG that he decided not to award his opponent with a fight. He declined to take it with the weight miss
