Blanchfield needs new coaches for both striking and strength & conditioning.

Crazy to think they put fiorot vs rose for rose 125 debut lol

They wanted Rose to skip the line. She’s close too. They could have Rose fight Erin (but that might be bad for killing a contender).

Let’s be real Manon and Erin should’ve gotten title shots but 125 jammed at the top.

Manon just earned herself a vacation.

She has to weight till early next year to challenge for the title. That’s if Alexa wins. If Valentina wins?

And this sums up the state of their weight class. Mid af

Agreed, especially on the last part. I just hate that I was so underwhelmed by both of them tonight

Especially blanchfield

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Exactly

Bunch of mid

 

[spiderjericho]

12 straight wins!!!!!

Old girl definitely deserves a title shot. She’s big for the division. I still think Valentina is probably the only challenge for her. She’s beaten Erin and Rose.

Good night folks. I’m not watching a card till 300. These fight nights have been turds.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Insult to injury

 

[spiderjericho]

Like I said she won herself a vacation.

“Light training” improve her TDD for Valentina (who is getting older). Air fryer her striking to ensure it’s crisp to pick apart Alexa.

But again if Valentina wins. Alexa might get a rematch. Manon and 125 has a huge log jam.

Got Damb chris is doubling down saying that silva dropping to his knee after the pokes were ridiculous

Oh my

 

[spiderjericho]

^^^Is he retiring?

If not, there’s no way he’ll win his next fight lol.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

He said he feels as much potential as he ever has. "I think I'm better now than I was back then"

Someone sleep this guy into retirement

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Here he go. Please do it someone. Put his lights out

 

[boxer15]

We need them to turn his legs purple before breaking his jaw.

Jed going in on Weidman right now on the post show

 

[whtascene]

The two eye poke combo is something else.

 

[spiderjericho]

I could see the first eye poke. Didn’t know he decided to combo it. Wild. Weird night.

I’d say Bruno Silva should appeal it. But that will do zilch since these commissions rarely over turn outcomes.

Jed going in on Weidman right now on the post show

I fell asleep early into it but his intro was “I have a lot of takes but i like my job and don’t want to get fired”

Lol, I’ll catch it today

Chris should be ashamed of himself for talking stupid. Gonna rewatch to see if he really got poked twice like he claims as well

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Not really that impressed tbh but I wasn’t expecting to be anyway

Found it off putting to transpose the past vs present but i get it

 

[spiderjericho]

Nice promo.

Tony/Khabib

Jed going in on Weidman right now on the post show

Listening right now. Hilarious.

They had good takes. I agree with their assessment of Luque/Joaquin, Blanchfield/Fioriot, Weidman/Silva, etc.

I love the fans turning on the hosts.

[spiderjericho]

Don’t understand why NJ getting so much love. Hopefully it’s not a turd card like 301.

 

[shogun]

I haven’t been to nj since I visited family 25 years ago.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

It’s gonna be so dope seeing Chris go unconscious. Only a matter of time

But then we’re gonna have to hear his **** takes on the ufc broadcasts
