UFC 319: Du Plessis/Chimaev​

United Center, Chicago

Initial thoughts:
  • Karine Silva (18-5) is a beast, and even coming off a loss, I must back her to get back on track.
  • Barbosa (24-12) had his first UFC fight in Nov 2010. He is only 2 years older than Klose (15-3) but the quality of the fighters they've faced is huge. I think maybe Edson still has something left and will showcase some high level striking.
  • Hooper (16-3-1) has blossomed into a real threat at LW. He should be at least equal to Hernandez (16-8) standing and when it hits the mat, it's only a matter of time.
  • Loopy and Jessica may have a bloody entertaining fight, considering how they both fight...but I got no clue and will pass on this one.
  • Susurkaev (9-0) looks to be a Chimaev clone and gets fed a WW at MW on short notice. This one finishes fast.
  • Prates (21-7) vs Neal (16-6)...I believe "Handz of Steel" is getting overlooked here. Prates has been on a roll, at least until Ian Garry dominated him in a one-sided decision back in April. Prates has made his name with highlight reel KOs, usually early on, but Neal is a savvy vet who has only succumbed to strikes once in 22 fights, and that was over 8 years ago to Kevin Holland before either had made it to the UFC. I think Carlos may get a little too careless chasing the KO, and find out what "Handz of Steel" is all about. Neal's a force at boxing range with power and counter punching technique.
  • They got the odds wrong at the top of the card, I really don't understand Murphy as a dog, dude's a step away from championship and undefeated. Pico wasn't even the Bellator champ, just highly ranked. Chimaev is a beast, no doubt, and I could see him a small fav. But come on. -255 is crazy. I'll take DDP at +235 all day and may slide a small play on a late finish.
  • Should be a fun card, and I am looking forward to it. Hate that Battle fucked his weight again, as that guy is a great fighter. He missed at 170 by 4lbs in Dec, and yesterday he misses again by 4lb at 185, WTF?
Back with plays later...

DDP has a fucking huge head!!! 😮

Hoping to continue a decent run in UFC last few cards.​

Bonuses:​

Performance: Tim Elliott​

Fighting for the first time in 20 months, Tim Elliott (21-14-1) looked good with a second-round guillotine choke submission of former Rizin champion Kai Asakura.

Performance: Carlos Prates​

In a rarity, Carlos Prates (22-7) found out he was getting a bonus while he was still in the cage, after his R1 KO of Geoff Neal. What’s crazy is, while Prates’ spinning back elbow KO was great – it not have been the best one of the night.

Performance: Lerone Murphy​

Lerone Murphy (17-0-1) was inexplicably the dog vs former Bellator standout Aaron Pico in his UFC debut. Murphy left no doubt when he drilled Pico with a spinning back elbow that had him out on the canvas for a scary long time.

Performance: Khamzat Chimaev​

In a dominant performance, Khamzat Chimaev (15-0 ) easily took the middleweight belt from Dricus Du Plessis in the Main Event. The punch stats were quite comical...

I had been riding high, so I was due an off-night. Not good, but could have been worse...
