UFC 190 Main Card Preview en voorspellings

Skryf 'n opmerking

Deur: Rich Bergeron

 

Ronda Rousey (11-0) en Bethe Correia (9-0) sal die kop van UFC 190 in 'n vrou se kapokgewig-titel bout wat gewaarborg is om vuurwerke te lewer. Hierdie twee teenstanders sal veg in die huis land die uitdager se, maar Rousey is 'n wêreldwye ster wat op 'n epiese roll so ver in haar loopbaan MMA. Correia is 'n buiteperd in haar eie land, maar sy is ook 'n onoorwonne doelskieter wat Rousey moeilikheid kan gee as die armbar nie in die spel kom nie.

 

Correia het 'n paar onsensitief opmerkings oor Rousey selfmoord pleeg in die aanloop tot die stryd. Selfmoord is 'n seer onderwerp vir die champ, wat gesien het haar pa sy eie lewe toe sy jonger was. Rousey sedert belowe om “straf” Bethe wanneer hulle ontmoet in die hok vanaand.

 

Rousey is 'n perfeksionis, plain en simpel. Net wanneer jy dink sy kan nie 'n beter te kry, verras sy jou en doen net dat. Correia is 'n taai-praat en vertroue vegter, maar sy is net nie naby vlak Rousey se. As sy 'n kans te alle, dit is in die eerste ronde. Rousey is nie op soek na 'n vinnige voorlegging as ons glo haar toegelaat bedoelings van seer Correia is ware. Correia kan haar bereik en power-pons vermoë gebruik om Rousey vroeë rammel en uit te klop haar, Dit beteken egter gaan tot tone met 'n kampioen wie getoon veel beter treffende oor die loop van haar laaste paar gevegte.

 

Voorspelling: Kyk vir Rousey om terug op haar belofte gaan vroeg klaar hierdie stryd, as haar emosies sal oorneem en stop haar van te veel dink oor die opstel van hierdie een uit. Sy sal net Wade in, gooi en loop uit die eerste ronde met 'n ander TKO te voeg aan al haar voorlegging oorwinnings. Sy sal smash Correia se groot neus wyd oop en judo gooi die uitdager vir die mat waar sy die show sal sluit met 'n doeltreffende grond en pond.

 

Die mede-hoofren funksies Mauricio Rua (22-10) teen Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (21-6) in 'n herontmoeting van 'n stryd wat gebeur onder die vaandel PRIDE in Januarie van 2005. Rua het die eerste stryd deur 'n eenparige besluit. Hierdie keer, beide vegters is lank verby hul eerste, en Rua gaan die hok met net een oorwinning in sy laaste vier aanvalle. Nogueira het ook 'n voorgee sedert hy kom in meer as 'n jaar ná sy laaste stryd, wat 'n eensydige TKO verlies Anthony Johnson wat net geduur was 44 sekondes.

 

Voorspelling: Rua is nie so swaar oorhandig as Johnson, en Nogueira moet sy wraak in hierdie stryd te kry deur die klop Rua in die tweede of derde ronde. Nogueira sal beter kop beweging en verdediging in die herontmoeting het, en Rua net nie enige onlangse oorwinnings teen enige groot name. Hy is in oor sy kop in hierdie stryd, en “Minotouro” gaan om hom te stuur na aftrede.

 

Antonio Nogueira Rodrgio (34-9-1) ook veg op die undercard teen “Die Skyscraper” Stefan Struve (25-7). Dit behoort 'n opwindende bout wees, en Mark Hunt het getoon dat Struve is vatbaar vir Hooien. Kan Nogueira ontgin wat swakheid, of sal Struve wys hy is 'n legende moordenaar hierdie tyd uit?

 

Voorspelling: Nogueira se koms in met al die ervaring in hierdie bout terwyl Struve het die fisieke. Daar word gesê dat die groter hulle is, die harder hulle val, maar Struve is 'n uitsondering. Hy moet in staat wees om voordeel te trek uit sy jeug en sy lang tyd weg van die hok aanspreek beserings en gesondheid betref. Hy sal out-staking Nogueira en veg lank regdeur die eerste twee rondes, uiteindelik afwerking Nogueira af met 'n bose combo vroeg in die derde.

 

Ander groot hoogtepunte op hierdie kaart sluit 'n vrou se MMA konfrontasie tussen Jessica Aguilar (19-4) en Claudia Gadelha (12-1) en 'n swaargewig botsing tussen Soa “Die Hulk” Palelei (20-4) en Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva (18-7-1).
