UFC 190 Main Card Eksempel og Forudsigelser

Efterlad en kommentar

Ved: Rich Bergeron

 

Ronda Rousey (11-0) og Bethe Correia (9-0) vilje overskrift UFC 190 i en kvinders bantamvægt titel Bout, der er garanteret til at levere fyrværkeri. Disse to rivaler vil kæmpe i udfordreren hjemland, men Rousey er en verdensomspændende stjerne, der er på en episk rulle så langt i sin MMA karriere. Correia er en underdog i hendes eget land, men hun er også en ubesejret angriber, der kunne give Rousey problemer, hvis den armbar ikke kommer i spil.

 

Correia lavet nogle ufølsomme bemærkninger om Rousey begå selvmord fører op til denne kamp. Selvmord er et ømt emne for champ, der så hendes far tage sit eget liv, da hun var yngre. Rousey er siden lovede at “straffe” Bethe, når de mødes i buret i aften.

 

Rousey er perfektionist, almindelig og enkel. Lige når du tror, ​​hun kan ikke få nogen bedre, Hun overrasker dig, og gør netop det. Correia er en hård-taler og selvsikker fighter, men hun er bare ikke i nærheden Rousey niveau. Hvis hun har nogen chance overhovedet, det er i den første runde. Rousey er ikke på udkig efter en hurtig indsendelse, hvis vi skal tro hende indrømmede intentioner om at såre Correia er ægte. Correia kunne bruge hendes rækkevidde og power-stansning evne til at rasle Rousey tidligt og banke hende ud, men det betyder at gå til til tå med en mester der har vist langt bedre slående i løbet af sine sidste par kampe.

 

Forudsigelse: Kig efter Rousey at gå tilbage på sit løfte og afslutte denne kamp tidligt, som hendes følelser vil overtage og stoppe hende fra at tænke for meget om at trække denne ene. Hun vil bare vade i, kaste ned og gå ud af første runde med en anden TKO at tilføje til alle hendes indsendelse vinder. Hun vil smadre Correia store næse bred åben og judo kaste udfordrer til måtten, hvor hun vil lukke showet med en effektiv jorden og pund.

 

Co-main event funktioner Mauricio Rua (22-10) vs Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (21-6) i en omkamp i en kamp, ​​der skete under STOLTHED banner i januar 2005. Rua vandt den første kamp ved enstemmig afgørelse. Denne gang, begge kæmpere er længe forbi deres prime, og Rua kommer ind i buret med kun én sejr i hans sidste fire anfald. Nogueira har også et handicap, da han kommer i mere end et år efter hans sidste kamp, som var en ensidig TKO tab til Anthony Johnson, der varede bare 44 sekunder.

 

Forudsigelse: Rua er ikke så tung afleveret som Johnson, og Nogueira bør få sin hævn i denne kamp ved at slå ud Rua i anden eller tredje runde. Nogueira vil have bedre hoved bevægelse og forsvar i omkamp, og Rua bare ikke har nogen seneste vinder mod eventuelle store navne. Han er i over hovedet i denne kamp, og “Minotouro” kommer til at sende ham på pension.

 

Antonio Nogueira Rodrgio (34-9-1) også kæmper på undercard mod “Den Skyskraber” Stefan Struve (25-7). Dette bør være en spændende kamp, og Mark Hunt viste, at Struve er modtagelige for haymakers. Kan Nogueira udnytte denne svaghed, eller vil Struve viser han er en legende killer denne gang ud?

 

Forudsigelse: Nogueira genkomst i med al den erfaring i denne kamp, ​​mens Struve har kropslighed. Det siges, at jo større de er, jo hårdere falder de, men Struve er en undtagelse. Han burde være i stand til at drage fordel af hans ungdom og hans lange tid væk fra buret adressering skader og sundhedsmæssige betænkeligheder. Han vil ud-strejke Nogueira og kæmpe høj gennem de første to runder, endelig efterbehandling Nogueira med en ond combo tidligt i tredje.

 

Andre større højdepunkter på dette kort omfatter en kvinders MMA opgør mellem Jessica Aguilar (19-4) og Claudia Gadelha (12-1) og en sværvægter sammenstød mellem Soa “Hulk” Palelei (20-4) og Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva (18-7-1).
