UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Spivac

The official Tapology discussion thread for the event!

Ivanov has 100% decisions in the UFC. Tybura 56% so it should go to the judges but anything can happen at HW.

Why are you so confident in Spivak. He isn't very good

Oh I see.... 2am... fair point 😅

Yeah I'm coming round to Kino. He is a psycho. That's what Duck would be like if he could fight 

My four picks from what I’ve seen from them would be:

Rinya nakamura just a straight up lock this guy is a savage can beat you anywhere the fight goes and pushes a pace not many could handle he will make light work of his opponent who seems to be mainly a grappler , I wouldn’t be surprised if rinya decided to beat him at his own game

Hyun sung park was able to weather storm against his opponent in his last fight and once he was able to grab a hold of him it was game over there was just a clear difference who was more superior and I expect a similar outcome to come in this fight

Jeong yeong lee has just been storming through his opponents and made quick work of them to get to the finals and I believe he will do just that again against zha yi who in my opinion shouldn’t even be in the finals as I reckon he lost his last fight and was gifted a win which will not happen here against a 10x better fighter

Jubli vs saraigh is a toss up if you ask me I couldn’t tell you who will win that but I will say jubli looked like the cleaner more accurate puncher but saraigh was just swinging for the fences and looked like he packed a bit of power on him. Im staying away from this fight as neither fighter showed me anything to be confident about them in and I expect it to just be a brawl

From like six pages ago...

I do think Derrick Lewis is done as a top heavyweight. Really seems like guys are willing to go right at him now. Chew up his legs, push him against the fence, pull him down. Even if he gets back up, it saps so much of his energy. I think Blaydes might have been his last big win, and that was Blaydes' fight to lose all night long and he respected the power too much, ironically. Had he not hesitated and either trusted his own boxing or closed the distance faster, he wouldnt have gotten caught on a lazy nervous entry. 

Lewis can definitely hang out in the lower top 15 til he's 45 with his punching power and name recognition. He'll still get the occasional viral memeworthy KO. But the skill guys seem to know their road to beating him by now. 

Researching Böhm and couldn't find her debut fight at first until I found that they put her vs Lipski on the main card and higher up on the card than Arman Tsarukyan.

I mean Ariane Lipski is a walking example of her previous promo being dogsh*t

It was put in the wrong event. That fight is on April 22nd

Lipski is a great example of marketability over talent

@ Rah123 

So was Paige VanSant.

Check out the...

... in the last 5 pages, you "21,842 posts" ****posting troll-ey and then talk about me !

Do you need your diaper changed?

I will say, though Böhm is at a technical and physical disadvantage (cardio and strength wise) here it is the best possible stylistic matchup she could've wished for. No need to worry about grappling and facing the least amount of forward pressure she has yet to come up against. Also being a kickboxer vs a boxer.
Kim should only be around a 2 to 1 imo. Maybe a bit higher, definitely not 3 to 1.

Lewis vs. Spivac
Serghei Spivac, TKO, R1
Lewis still has unreal power, but what else? He won't be able to outgrapple Spivac. Spivac is also almost 10 years younger (in his prime) which makes a difference. Besides the obvious KO chance, Spivac should win this fight

Nah like rly KSW was sh*t at the time Lipski came into that org after Karolina left and she was the only ELITE WMMA fighter in KSW. Lipski did not have any competition (Except for Gomez Juarez) until she came into UFC so yeah

What other picks do you like? Zubaira Tukhugov seems like a lock too
