UFC Fight Night: Cannonier vs. Strickland

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

OK, here is my Sunday 1 AM drunk breakdown of this fight night. Morozov by decision cause he's that good, and Newson will be tough enough to withstand everything but lose bad. Kape by decision cause I think Kape is technically better but Dvorik is good enough to last the whole fight. Rinat smokes Battle, and I would say this drunk or sober (I respect Battle's improvement's and don't think he's a scrub no more tho). Rafa Garcia is just a good grappler that beats anyone that isn't good at grappling. **** Said and his overrated ass, so Kakahramononv cause he's actually decent. Marquez smokes Winn cause Winn rides the coattails of DC and is 10x worse of a wrestler and fighter than he is. Semelsberger cause he's from my home county and can't pick against him even tho I think he's going to lose. Vlismas is very unlikable as a fighter and person but she has skill and will beat team Alpha Male. Michal is underrated and will beat Brundage (although he has a future in the UFC and has the potential to be ranked). I'm picking Green crossing my fingers that he wins. Caceras is too unreliable, and Erosa has seemed to have career resurgence. Albazi by a mile. Ismagulov just from a gut feeling and same with Strickland

Dober vs. Green
Bobby Green, DEC
Anyone who has good striking and cardio to back it up beats Dober. Dober got lucky with his last 2 opponents but Bobby Green's volume and cardio should be a big problem for Dober.

This card is fantastic for an Apex event, even if I disagree with some of the bout placement.

Morozov KO R2 - been given an easy opponent to show off

Kape Dec - another relatively easy fight, prob won't get the KO just a kinda boring dec

Fakretdinov Dec - not overly impressed with either guy yet but leaning Fakky to prob edge a split dec or maybe a r3 tko

Maheshate KO R2 - red army has some pow pow in his hands!

Nurmagomedov Dec - think it's a fun close fight, probably uses some wrestling to secure rounds

Marquez KO R1 - Winn is a fat lightweight. Needs to hit the gym and drop a weight class or 2.

Matthews Sub R2 - Think Jake outstrikes comfortably and then club n sub R2

Vlismas Dec - Getting filled full of that high octane Dolidze testosterone on the daily is going to show in the strength department, she will stuff all the TD of McKenna and dominate her to a dec, maybe late stoppage.

Olek KO R1 - another gifted easy fight to show off in

Green Dec - should be able to avoid most of what Dober has to offer and counter strike comfortably / stay out of range after throwing offense

Caceres Sub R3 - Erosa got starched by Choi, Caceres choked Choi out.

Albazi Sub R2 - should be an easy fight, will be surprised if it makes it past R2

Ismagulov Dec - Ol mate twitch should be able to awkward strike his way to a split dec

Stricky Dec - think he outvolumes and (hopefully) stays away from damage for a comfortable dec win
