Afbreek van die UFC 207 Main kaart: Voorskou en voorspellings
Deur: Rich Bergeron
UFC 207 dui die langverwagte terugkeer van “rumoerige” Ronda Rousey (12-1) 'n Octagon sy een keer oorheers as die vroue se kapokgewig-kampioen. Die titel kom uit Rousey op dramatiese wyse deur Holly Holm is nou om die staat middellyf van Amanda Nunes (13-4). Rousey sal 'n kans om dit te rip off het en sit dit terug om haar eie heupe op 30 Desember.
Rousey is uit die hok vir meer as 'n jaar, en sy reeds onlangs bevestig dat haar loopbaan in gemengde martial arts kom tot 'n einde. Nunes is jonk, honger en intimiderend as die buiteperd (+150) soek om vas te hou aan haar gordel teen die legendariese Judoka en MMA aanval. Rousey kom in as die gunsteling by -185.
Vir meer kans en verbintenis inligting besoek 12WEDDENSKAP.
Daar is meer vrae as antwoorde gaan in hierdie baie suksesvolle gebeurtenis. Sal Rousey skud die ring roes en terug te keer na glorie? Is sy reeds 'n stap in die rigting van aftrede? Kan Nunes stil haar twyfelaars en voortgaan om die nalatenskap van die eerste ooit UFC vroue se kapokgewig-kampioen verneder? Wat ook al gebeur, die eerste ronde sal deurslaggewend wees. Beide vroue sal kyk na dit 'n vinnige nag maak.
Voorspelling: Rousey kom terug met 'n wraak en uitstallings baie verbeter treffende en skop verdediging. Nunes sukkel hard en verteenwoordig die beste Brasilië te bied, maar Ronda het te veel om te verloor. Sy kan nie 'n perfekte rekord te meer beskerm, maar sy het nie 'n perfekte rede om hierdie stryd te wen. Sy moet ook haar alfa status vas te stel om haar eie kritici stil te bly en te bewys sy is terug na haar titel te herwin. Rousey wen deur uitklophou vroeg in die tweede ronde.
Nog 'n UFC kapokgewigtitel is op die lyn in die mede-hoofren. Dominic Cruz (22-1) gee Cody Garbrandt (10-0) 'n kraak in die gordel in wat 'n ware slugfest kan wees. Hoewel Cody nooit 'n geveg verloor en uitgeslaan nege van sy tien loopbaan teenstanders by die professionele vlak, Dominic Cruz (-225) is aan die rol saam op 'n 13-stryd wen streep wat terugdateer tot Maart van 2008. Garbrandt (+175) beteken verteenwoordig 'n spreekwoordelike “kans ponser se” hier, al. Hy het sy laaste drie gevegte gewen deur TKO of uitklophou. Almal van hulle geëindig dankie se aan Cody se beligting vinnig pons krag.
Voorspelling: Ag geneem word dat Cruz is 'n taktiese, verdedigende vegter, Hy sal floreer as die stryd kry in die dieper rondes. Garbrandt kan nie wen sonder 'n eerste ronde knockout as die ervaring en rou talent Cruz bring om die hok is uniek en dinamiese. Hy maak aanpassings soos geen ander vegter en gebruik die liggaam en kop beweging wat lyk elke teenstander hy die gesig gestaar in die afgelope jaar te beskaam. Cody sal hoef te vang “Die Dominator” om met hom, en hy sal net een rondte om dit te doen het. Cruz wen teen die einde van rondte TKO of eenparige besluit.
A swaargewig botsing tussen Fabricio Werdum (21-6-1) en Kain Velasquez (14-2) is ook te sien by UFC 207. Die stryd is 'n rematch van 'n UFC 188 oorlog tussen die twee Goliats, wat geëindig het met Werdum wen die kampioenskap bout deur derde ronde voorlegging (guillotine verstik).
Hierdie keer, Velasquez is die gunsteling vegter (-210) terwyl Werdum is 'n +170 buiteperd. Dit is nog 'schreeuwer vs. taktikus wedstryd-up, en dit kan enige kant toe gaan. Werdum het 'n swak ken teen Stipe Miocic, en Kain sal die uitkyk wees vir elke geleentheid om dit te gaan.
Voorspelling: Velasquez verzendingen Werdum binnekant van twee rondes. Kain se treffende is beter as Werdum, en hy sal die fout laat Werdum neem die stryd op die grond hierdie tyd nie. Velasquez deur KO.
Neil Magny (18-5) en Johny Hendricks (17-5) kom in die hok vir UFC 207 as twee van die beste welterweights in die liga. Beide ervaar sommige wel en wee in sport die afgelope tyd, al. Magny het 'n drie stryd wen streep gestop deur Lorenz Larkin in sy laaste rondte terwyl Hendricks drie verloor uit sy laaste vier gevegte. Hendricks is 'n ver van sy voormalige self en 'n lang pad van sy kampioenskap dae. Stephen Thompson vee die mat met Hendricks en op pad na 'n wrede TKO voor Kelvin Gastelum in die hok trap oorkant die voormalige kampioen en het die huis 'n eenparige besluit geneem nadat drie hard geveg rondes.
Voorspelling: Magny is die meer duursame en dinamiese vegter, en Hendricks kan nie naby genoeg kry om sy beste krag skote land. Magny sal ophou Hendricks’ vooruitgang, ontken sy take down pogings en dien of stop die voormalige kampioen voor die finale klok. Magny deur derde ronde TKO.
Voorste af die hoof kaart is 'n ander stryd met 'n voormalige kampioen,. T.J. Dillashaw (13-3) gevegte vakman John “Hande van Stone” Lineker (29-7) in 'n kapokgewig stryd gebind aan 'n toekoms klassieke wees. Lineker bring 'n intensiteit, krag en akkuraatheid wat is eenvoudig verstommend om te getuig. Dillashaw beweeg rondom die hok soos 'n Ierse stepdancer, dodging aanvalle soos 'n Mexikaanse stierenvechter. Lineker het in sy laaste bout met John Dodson dat hy 'n slim kan wees, tegniese vegter asook.
Voorspelling: wat T.J. gebrek is Lineker se krag: POWER. Lineker sal leer om sy reeks vind in die tweede ronde en begin om onortodokse verdediging Dillashaw se dring. Halfpad deur die derde ronde hy sal vang T.J. back-up en die einde van die stryd op die voete met 'n wrede reeks stoot, skop, knieë en elmboë teen die hok. Lineker deur derde ronde TKO.

Rich Interviews Daniel Weichel:
Veazey to Conor McGregor: I’ll fight you now
Baltimore, MD (Desember 6, 2016) – There was much talk throughout the boxing world last week when UFC superstar Conor McGregor received a boxing license from the California State Athletic Commission.
McGregor, widely considered the best mixed martial artist in the world, has been clamoring for a superfight with Floyd Mayweather. The bout would be a traditional boxing match. Talk surrounding Mayweather-McGregor received heavy criticism and it’s highly unlikely an athletic commission would sanction a five division world champion with a 49-0 record against an opponent making his debut.
Tipies, debuting boxers face opponents that only have a few professional bouts.
Enter Joey “Bazooka Joe” Veazey.
Living and fighting out of Maryland, the 18-year-old had a successful amateur career and turned pro with a four round decision victory in October. A big ticket seller in his home state, Veazey is an honor student focused on being a star in and out of the ring. While many other young professional boxers would wait for a high profile fight, Veazey is ready to show McGregor he should stick to his own sport.
“The whole boxing world already knows Conor McGregor doesn’t belong in the same ring as Mayweather. I just had my pro debut and he recently got licensed so on paper, that’s an approvable fight by the athletic commission. If he does face me however, I’d prove to the world that he’s not a boxer and end the hype he’s started. He thinks he can just walk into this sport and face the best? That’s not how it works. If you really want to get in the boxing ring, I’d gladly expose you right now because boxing is no joke!"
Veazey’s next fight is scheduled for Januarie 13 in Maryland and his promoter Jake Smith of Baltimore Boxing has already discussed licensing McGregor with Maryland State Athletic Commission executives.

Tate retired earlier in the evening after a stellar career. Rich also gets going about the fighter union front and some new developments with Georges St. Pierre, Ex-Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney, Kain Velasquez, T.J. Dillashaw and other UFC notables breaking new ground in the niche with the founding of the Mixed Martial Arts Athletes Association.

FNU Combat Sports Show For November 3, 2016

We preview both events and talk about the matchups. We then move to the boxing schedule where there are multiple belts on the line this week all over the globe. We spend a bit of time discussing the big Manny Pacquiao bout against Jessie Vargas. Is Manny fighting for the right reasons? Does he have enough left in the tank? We’ll know the answer Saturday night. Rich also breaks down his suspicions about vocal UFC fighters trending toward starting some type of powerful fighters union. Could the astronomical selling price of the UFC actually be the main handicap for the new owners? Did putting such a high premium on the UFC unintentionally give griping fighters more incentive to sue the company? Only time will tell.
