UFC 311 Discussion Thread

Good fights tonite, I think Islam might take an L tonite.

 

Pereira vs Ankalaev has been announced for UFC 313 for the LHW championship from T-Mobile arena in Las Vegas. Thats a damn good fight.

 

Prochaska vs Hill is next. 3, 5 minute rounds at Light Heavyweight.

 

Hill is dropped by a left from Prochaska but he quickly gets back up. These guys are throwing some serious leather in round 1. Very entertaining round with boy guys landing impactful shots.

1-0 Prochazka, close

 

There's a half in the action in round 2 due to an eye poke from hill.

 

Better round from Hill in round 2, he landed the better shots. Great scrap so far

1-1 EVEN

 

Prochaska puts Hill on his ass, Hill manages to get up but goes down again Prochaska gnp his way to a ref stoppage in round 3. Great fight, these guys went to war!

 

Nice fight. I thought Hill would win because Jiri seemed so hittable in his last fight despite winning. Good performance.

 

Merab Dvalishvili vs Umar Nurmagomedov, 5x5 minute rounds, Bantamweight championship.

 

This is a grapplers dream match!

 

MD rocked at the end there but not much in it until then.

 

I'm surprised this has been a standup battle, both guys have tried for a takedown but got stuffed. Both guys displaying good takedown defense so far in round 1. Nurmagomedov wins the striking battle and rocks Dvalishvili to close out round 1.

1-0 Nurmagomedov

 

Nurmagomedov has very underrated striking skills, he was lighting Dvalishvili up.

 

And matching him in the wrestling. Good takedown

 

Nurmagomedov wins the first 3.5minutes landing good strikes and securing the takedown. Dvalishvili mounted a little comeback towards the end othe round but not enough to win it.

2-0 Nurmagomedov
