UFC Fight Night: Santos vs. Hill

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

^ what are you waffling about

why is it likely to be her last fight? she's not going to get cut if she loses. dana loves her and she puts on fun fights. wmma fighters typically dont get cut after a 1 fight losing streak either if they bring excitement to the table.

why is sato +265? are people this ********

i wish i waited to bet sato. i got him at +182 early

what advantage does battle have except maybe volume?

if they didnt cut her after an 0-3 start then why would they cut her now

if they give you a 4th fight after 0-3 then it means the ufc has some love for the fighter

explain more about battle

I honestly don’t believe Battle wins this, Battle is good but he hasn’t done anything that makes me go wow this man is legit, he’s beaten two TUF fighters (bottom tier competition) and was almost put out by Gore, Sato has a lot of pop in his strikes and accurate, hence why Nelson didn’t even wanna bother striking with him, he’s looking to bounce back from his loss vs Nelson, and I’m sure Sanford spent majority of his camp improving his TDD and ground game, considering Battle a lock here is crazy, if anything I believe Sato is the safest dog on this card after Walker

"wrestling is good" yea you just showed your iq level

he was letting non ufc level guys have plenty of moments against him

and what about satos bjj? gunnar nelson had his back for the whole fight and didnt sub him. you realize thats super impressive

and funny you talk about competition when satos losing to top 15 guys and battles losing to negative regional fighters

comparing Gunnar Nelson to Bryan Battle is funny af

you would have to be a gay person level iq to think Battle even has moments in the fight

battle schools cans.

sato aint that

what bout yesterday?

oam by decision


and today i have lipski, luque

Wow does Quinlan need to adjust his dosage or what? Jk relax

Sato has never lost to someone worse than Battle and Battle hasn't beat anyone better than Sato. Battle doesn't even have the proverbial punchers chance. He's a volume guy he doesn't have **** you power, he doesn't have the bjj in his back pocket. Sato has to royally **** up for Battle to have any path to victory here. Beyond that Bryan's completely drained from his first real 170 cut, for a guy who basically wins fights from cardio that's a terrible sign.

Sato on the other hand looks healthy. Does have some of that **** you power and has seen everything Battle can do many times over. I had picked this to be a pedestrian decision for Sato but looking at Battle's weigh in I wouldn't be surprised if Sato shuts his lights off.

In saying that the UFC are interested in Battle winning this fight. Without a doubt Sato has been called up because the UFC view this as a winnable fight for Battle. But we saw how well that worked out for Ricky a few weeks back.... expect much the same here.
