UFC 190: Rousey vs. Correia - Page 3

Why would the document be a joke? It's really general and seems frivolous. But considering a lot of fighters are barely early to mid twenties in age and not yet well traveled....doesn't seem like the worst idea to cover bases.

I'm of the opinion that the Ronda purposely wanting to go rounds thing is 100% part of the sell job. Ronda's very aware of selling a fight for PPVs consideration without overtly being a fake.

I feel the exact same way on both accords.

Equation:

(Rousey >>>>>>>>>>Correira) + (Good >>>>>>>>>>> Rousey's striking defense) = Trainwreck for Correira

Rousey probably already has the promos played out (half joking):

A) KO - I wanted to punish her for those mean things she said, it's personal when you talk about my family. subtext: I'm the shit, untouchable, pay to watch the baddest bitch on the planet

B) Sub - We're in Brasil, I respect the art of Jiu Jitsu and wanted to display that for the great Brazilian fans. subtext: Thank you for the art, I'm clearly the master of it now at this weight and gender, pay to watch the baddest bitch on the planet

because it's way over the top and it mentions stupidities such as "Never open your hotel room until you confirm who is on the other side", not picking anyone up because you can be a set up for a robbery and aids incidence among prostitutes. If people think such advice is normal then wow cant believe i survived thus far

I will take Noguiera over Steven Struve.
Steven Struve is an idiot, I learned about this in the Hunt fight. And Noguiera says his strategy will help him win.

Good one IMO.

Can't hate on Rousey's sentiments at the very end. Fuck gold-diggin whores +1.

bigfoot looked fat there. Like bad and fat. Would not be surprised at all to seem him go down in 30 seconds.

You know what, I'll take both Noguiera brothers. They're senior to Shogun in Brazil, and its not like Shogun is an aspiring anything that needs to conquer them.

Other than that, I think Bigfoot is done. Just took too much damage, I'm pretty sure Soa Paleli will win.

and the Damien Maia vs Neil Magny fight is really interesteresting to me, Maia keeps getting better and better, although I was really impressed with Magny until he lost the last fight. I wouldn't bet it, but my gut says Maia because he can stand at small disadvantage or grapple at large advantage.

I placed some early small bets on Lil Nog but I've totally changed my tune. I watched his fight with Rashad Evans again and it's probably the least impressive win I've ever seen.

Shogun should win.

Buying back my action on those.

Makes zero sense. Not sure the rest made much more sense.

Bunch of the card's fights being basically 'how much of a worse version has' fighter A become as compared to how much worse Fighter B has become...all feels a bit too lottery'ish to me. Nogeuira, Nogueira #2, Shogun, Bigfoot, Soa, Struve. Out of those, I'd lean Struve the most except how he is after his condition is such a wild card and as Minsk said earlier, his fight IQ is so extremely low sometimes to the point that gambling on him is always dicey.

Think I'm going to go with Magny and Ronda R1 for this card.
