Yeah I guess it's a moral victory for Santos to outgrapple a grappler? Or something? But just punch her.

Modaferri will dominate the other girls in Invicta, just the pay is alot less.. So she will have to find a husband and pull their finances together

It's incredible to me that Roxy has as many professional fights as she does and still spams arm punches.

I imagine if Roxy wants to keep fighting she will move to ONE.  She's big in japan so the pay wouldn't be bad I'm sure, and the girls might be more her size.

I don't like Roxy, she bores the bejeesus out of me but there's no doubting she's a willing body.

One thing about Modafferi, win or lose, she will give her all. Never quits, cuts, blood, keeps going. Respect.

You guys sure Santos isn’t just John Dobson in drag?

I dunno. I look at Modafferi and just think she'd be better suited to reading pop-up books to kids in the public library in a hand-knitted cardigan than fighting in the octagon.

You'd think a high IQ grappler would be able to age gracefully like a Demian Maia or Glover or something. But Roxy's last submission was 4 years ago in something called "Fusion Fight League".

Blaydes

Predictions: 11 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 665 Points   |   Tied for 1244th

Maybe this is controversial, but I think tonight will be a big win for Blaydes that will put him back in title discussion. I know Lewis slept him, but he's such a complete fighter for a heavyweight.

Easy money!

I'm Zingy. Taila Santos balanced her finger lock tonight.
Impeccable taste in picks, easy!
