Chin Check - 179 (Recap)
Friday's 'Legacy Fighting Alliance' was a great aperitif for Saturday's action, especially considering 'LFA 105' had two Strawweight fights on the card!
Tabatha Ricci continued her rise, with a solid second round stoppage of the extremely game Shawna Ormsby.
And the night finished with Piera Rodriguez gaining the vacant Strawweight title. In a fight that was closer than a five o'clock shadow!
AND, Canaan Kawaihae made quick work of his Co-main promotional debut, with a slick arse ninja choke.
Saturday night had the most stacked card of the year so far, in 'UFC 261'.
There were great fights from the opening, BUT, our three title fights REALLY didn't disappoint, everyone had something different and left you flabbergasted.
There was a thought that if anyone could topple the bullet, Jéssica Andrade was the woman to do it. Valentina Shevchenko though went 'Blueprint 2' and was like "I'll show you how to do this son", cause her skills be a one of one, that means none before it, none to come!!!
In the Strawweight fight we were expecting some dazzle, BUT Rose Namajunas brought the BANG Just a minute in she hit a front foot head kick that was perfectly placed for some sweet chin music.....AndNew
AND then, the talk coming in was what can happen on a full camp. The answer, staight devastation!!! Kamaru Usman showed that those fists are anything but pillows. He sprang forward quicker than a viper and laid a right cross that would have floored a rhino.
The weekend was brought to a close by 'Submission Underground 22' and what we learnt from this fun filled card was......
Zack Schneider is a slick SOB, BUT, you can not give Andrew Alexander an inch, cause he will f@&k you up!
Kyle Chambers game is so advanced, Neo refused to face him. His heel hook entry was smoother than a Tesla's acceleration It's a shame to see Ben Egli retire from grappling, but can't wait to see his rise in MMA!
And Mason Fowler doesn't care what you come at him with, cause he's gonna choke you regardless!
So, let's break it all down, in today's (ep 179) @ChinCheckPod
- LFA 105: Rodriguez vs. Gotsyk
- UFC 261: Usman vs. Masvidal 2
- Submission Underground 22
