Fight Predictions: UFC on ESPN 23: Reyes vs Procházka
You thought after last week, things might be chill, BUT, no one was expecting 'The Hulk' to be that excited for human contact after isolation Dustin Jacoby (@thehanyakdj) 🦝 was coming in looking for the win, now you can guarantee that he wants to take Ion Cuțelaba (@IonCutelaba) 🇲🇩 arm, turn it sideways and shove it up, well, he wants to put a beating on him!
There are three other sure fire fights on the 'UFC on ESPN 23' (#UFCVegas25) card.........
Both Sean Strickland (@Strickland_MMA) 🇺🇸 and Krzysztof Jotko (@KrzysztofJotko) 🇵🇱 have put together three fight win streaks, working in the background, doing their thing. It feels like one big win could get them on the radar, so you know they're looking at this being that highlight!
The fight between Merab Dvalishvili (@Merab.Dvalishvili) 🇬🇪 & Cody Stamann (@CodyStamann) 🇺🇸 has been bubbling away since last year. And the way they both fight, there's going to be no quarters left. The question is, a 'Spartan' can stand against an invading army, but can it withstand 'The Machine'.
THEN, the Co-main event, 'Killer Cub' vs 'Ninja', Sol Cal vs Tbilisi, it's such an interesting clash. Cub Swanson (@CubSwanson) is such a damn legend in the game. He's fought every style and the way he's redefined himself. This is the biggest test Giga Chikadze (@KnockoutCancer) 🇬🇪 has faced and will truly test his takedown defence and evolution in MMA. It just feels something big is gonna go down, so this can't be missed!
AND, the Main event Dominick Reyes (@domreyes24) 🇲🇽 vs Jiří Procházka (@jirkaprochazka) 🇨🇿 Reyes wants to put the record straight, show the last fight wasn't him. While Procházka wants to continue the momentum and stamp a claim for the next title shot. So with so much on the line, this fight is going to be ballsier than Procházka haircut 💥
