UFC Fight Night: Kattar vs. Allen

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

I did bad :(

It happened for your side. You chose to swap off Allen when he clearly had advantages in this fight. Your fault. Kattar wouldn’t have thrown that knee if he felt like he was winning the round. He got cracked a few times and desperately tried to get it back. Not a freak injury. 


Ortega got caught in an armbar attempt that wasn’t deep and didn’t respect yairs ground game so just tried to force his arm out of it instead of defending the proper way and he actually tapped not a freak injury. Take shortcuts in submission escapes and you’ll get punished. Also yair was piecing him up.

Aspinals injury was a bit of a freak accident but he said he had a problem with that leg for a long time and didn’t get it checked. The way that fight was started it looked like he was about to get his head taken off anyway. All 3 of those fights would have ended the same way without the injuries pick better

I care about my picks but they can always recover. I care about my bets more and I seen Allen as a banker. Should have stayed away from silva vs Paul though since it ruined a few parlays. Only up 1 unit because of that **** but up 74 for the year 

In general October has been a dog**** month for ufc cards 1 week off 2 female headlined cards with the best fight actually dropping off one of them askarov vs royval. bellator are never going to improve they’ve had long enough but still can’t seem to figure out that you have to advertise your events and put the whole card on live tv. We just have to hope another company step up. I was so sure Allen would knock him out and actually prove himself. I’m glad I won money but I’d much rather everyone see how good he actually is

It 100% a flukey win,  most  injuries loss are fluke, What the probability of throwing a flying knee, Landing on it weird and injuring it, Pretty low, 

But Allen should still get a title shot or interim title fight, He look good before it happen, Also is on a 10 fight win streak, Gotta respect the win streak

Allen vs yair is the fight to make imo. It’s so tough because you’ve got three guys who are in the title mix but don’t have a significant enough win to make a clear case. I say yair over emmett because at least he got a finish, as weird as it was, rather than a questionable decision. 

Yeah you can't give Allen a title shot off Kattar's back. Kattar has already launched Emmett in somewhat questionable fashion. Emmett, Yair, Max and Allen need to get matched up and the winners from there either move on to interim title or you give the more impressive winner the next shot at Volk. If Emmett and Allen end up in an interim title fight without going through Max or Yair I can't respect them as a valid champ in any sense.

Or honestly they should do emmett vs Max and then yair vs allen for interim 

Arnold is 1 of 15 fighter to get on a double digit win streak in the UFC, 13 of them are UFC champion with the only other fighter that wasn't UFC champion was Royce Gracie which was before the UFC had a belt, I think that win streak happen between UFC 1-5

With Arnold you have to respect the winstreak, To go on a long win streak in the UFC is hard

I dunno if its genes or consistency, maybe genes mixed with alot of hard training, consistency, diet etc, but Arnold looks like a champ, he has the body and body language of a champ,... He puts in serious miles driving to and from training every week, instead of just buying a cheap 1 bed place there in or around Birmingham.... Crazy grind

On MMA decision, 88.8% of people think Jacoby won the fight, While only 10.1% of people think Roundtree won, And even crazier when 91.4% of people think Jacoby won the 1st and 93.9% of people think he won the 2nd.

Also, they're are alway people who are either ******** at scoring, bias or trolling, So they're never really 100% of fans on one side, 90% of people pretty much mean 100% of people when you count them out
