Davey Grant chokes out Raphael Assuncao in the 3rd round

I’m angry. First, props to Grant. Was down 0-2 going into round 3 and went out there to kill Assuncao. And he hurt him badly right off the bat. To Assuncao’s credit, he got the takedown. But Grant grabbed the cage twice to defend and got a point taken. But instead of restarting from the position, the ref stood them up. Grant immediately hurt Assuncao with a spinning backfist. Assuncao shot in to defend himself but ended up in an inverted triangle and went out. If I’m Assuncao and the team, I’m pissed.

There’s something to be said that this has been the fatal flaw for Assuncao. You can neutralize all you want, but you’re always walking that line when you don’t really push yourself on your opponents.

Assuncao retires after the loss.

Real gangsters move in silence

#REAL GANGSTERS MOVE IN SILENCE SKIN#

(Including the one second bounce off the cage and punches after the fact.) Record shattered, undefeated record shattered. Giving himself enough time to land two “super necessary” punches to the unconscious head of Askren, Masvidal was the new record holder of the fastest knockout in UFC history at five seconds flat. When the fight had begun, Masvidal, hands behind his back took a second against the cage before running at an all out sprint and landing an earth shaking flying knee to a now completely stiff, Ben Askren. The grin just wouldn’t leave his face and we found out why. Fight night, he walked to the Octagon with a little more swagger than ever before. Masvidal wasn’t dodging eye contact, wasn’t getting frustrated or appearing dominated.

#REAL GANGSTERS MOVE IN SILENCE SKIN#

Most of Askren’s opponents become mentally overwhelmed and soon enough physically as well, Masvidal made a mortal out of the former Olympian.Īt the faceoffs, Askren tried burrowing under the skin of “Gamebred” and something seemed off. It was one of the only times anybody had engaged in verbal sparring with him and it wasn’t having the intended result. That plan from beginning to end was a failure when he was slated to take on Jorge Masvidal at UFC 239.Įvery small comment seemed to irritate Masvidal further and further. After peaking the fans’ interest by being the lovable antagonist, “Funky” fights his fight, wins and calls it a day. Witty, irritating prefight chatter is Askren’s weapon of choice. With some of the best wrestling in all of MMA, Askren isn’t exactly winning fans over via flash. These days, it’s hard to find Masvidal without his hands behind his back and the smirk that says, “you saw what can happen.”īen Askren was an appropriately hyped undefeated champion of basically every promotion he’s fought in and a legendary college wrestler. After all was said and done, Masvidal did more damage to Leon Edwards in his three second retaliation than he received in three rounds of the co-main. Landed multiple shots to the face of Edwards before both men were heavily restrained. Hands behind his back, Masvidal calmly walked over, didn’t wait for another word to be spoken. Nevermind the post-fight press conference, nevermind the rolling cameras, nevermind the interview. After a decision win over Gunnar Nelson, Edwards appeared to be trying to build his next fight when he set his sights on Jorge Masvidal despite “Gamebred” being preoccupied with a backstage interview. Mid-interview, Masvidal found himself being chirped at by English welterweight, Leon Edwards. The last king of the most brutal YouTube rabbit hole that stole the attention of the world in the mid to late 2000’s, Jorge Masvidal.Īfter Masvidal’s UFC London knockout over Darren Till that not only earned him Fight of the Night, but Performance of the night also, he also found himself close to pulling in a second performance of the night after the show. High-top shoes squeaking on concrete, jean shorts, ponytail and no shirt, Masvidal was a man among boys as he threw calculated strikes, circled, evaded punches and defeated Ray not once but twice. It isn’t a 305 party without Jorge Masvidal. His protégé, Ray, was thought to take over as the face of backyard, bare-knuckled brawls but come on. Before long he was a household name and in the UFC. The hard-hitting, seemingly unbeatable Slice was seen destroying face after face barehanded in the back yard. The man who put a face to the nameless backyard fighters was Kimbo Slice. Random searches as far as the imagination could take a person took a lot of people down a street fight rabbit hole. By early career we don’t mean when Masvidal took Raphael Assuncao to decision only to turn around and knock out Joe Lauzon in his sixth and seventh fight, respectively.īefore Twitch, SnapChat or Vine, YouTube was your one stop shop for almost any kind of entertainment.

Cory Sandhagen has done just about everything he needs to do so far to give himself a serious chance to join Dillashaw and Moraes as dudes to beat Assuncao at 135 lbs. Tremendous sstart to the first round minus his weird attempt at a takedown. Even that was kinda/sorta a good barometer test.

A fantastic look by Sriram Muralidaran at the amazing performance of Raphael Assuncao against Victor Henry from this past weekend. I feel bad for doubting Assuncao, cause the dude is one of the best BWs ever imo. He’s a seriously underrated fighter with some of the best defensive skills in MMA.

Sriram breaks down how Assuncao managed to freeze Henry out of the fight over the course of 3 rounds. It’s a great read!

“So this card is damn good, eh?” UFC Fight Night From Brazil

Joey

Jan 27th, 2019

The first card for ESPN+ had a little bit of everything; there was a big title fight with two division relevance, a big clash between a rising LW contender and an old war horse, familiar faces, up and coming prospects and some good old fashioned low brow chaos for all to take in. This card is different across the board but that's not in a bad way. In the weirdest way, it's just a collection of really great fights up and down the marquee. You have a bantamweight #1 contender type clash as the headliner, Jose Aldo vs Renato Moicano as the co-main event in what should be a fuckin' great fight, potentially the last fight of Demian Maia's career and a collection of fights with prospects facing prospects, prospects facing proven UFC veterans and some good sleeper fights across weight classes like flyweight (both men and women) and lightweight. This card probably won't Ready to have some fun?

Twelve Precarious Ponderings

1- The biggest "pondering" I have is whether or not the result of Cejudo vs Dillashaw wrecked the relevance for our main event. To be 100% fair and on the nose, the winner of this fight had to face TJ Dillashaw for the title should he have beaten Cejudo. Even if Raphael is a drab fight on paper due to Dillashaw dominating the second fight, Raphael would've been beyond every other potential title contender by a sizable margin with little room for debate. If Moraes became the first guy since Dillashaw to beat Assuncao over the past like four years? I can't imagine there being an argument about him as the #1 contender either. Cejudo finishing Dillashaw forces everybody to sit back down and try to reconfigure what this fight really means. Now it's no longer in theory a #1 contender fight outright since you're probably getting a Dillashaw vs Cejudo rematch soon. How soon and what weight class (rematch at flyweight? Cejudo going for two?) puts the winner of this fight in a potential year long limbo (if Cejudo vs Dillashaw happens in July, chances are we're not seeing Moraes/Assuncao vs Cejudo/Dillashaw winner until 2019). What a weird stupid spot to be in.

2- It's weird that the co-main event is eerily similar while also being completely different if that makes any sort of sense at all. This is a #1 contender fight that may not be one and yet I'm pretty intrigued in the number of ways it can go. It's like a weird RL Stein Choose Your MMA Adventure Book:

Holloway stays at 145 lbs, Moicano wins so you get Moicano vs Holloway eventually.

Holloway goes up to 155 lbs, Moicano wins means you have no Holloway so do you do Moicano/Ortega 2 or Moicano/Volkanovski or does Frankie Edgar come into play?

Holloway stays at 145 lbs, Aldo wins so it's down to either Edgar getting a shot at Holloway despite losing to Aldo twice (aka the UFC 222 main event on paper) or you go with Holloway vs Volkanovski or you try to convince yourself that fans will want to see Holloway scrub Aldo a third time.

Holloway goes up to 155 lbs, Aldo wins means all sorts of chaos. Can't do Aldo vs Edgar III when Aldo won the first two fights so you might go with Volkanovski vs Aldo but at the same time does Aldo get a title shot if he wants to retire so do you just ignore Aldo/Moicano and go with Volkanosvki vs Ortega or Edgar vs Ortega 2 or does Yair get involved or so on so forth.

A lot of unique scenarios at play here.

3- The first Assuncao vs Moraes fight could be summed up as a better version of every big Assuncao fight. He neutralizes guys, does enough to win rounds, stifles their offensive gameplan and then leaves with a tight decision win. Moraes looked pretty nervous in his UFC debut, got dropped by Assuncao early and a late rally (in many ways punctuating a staring contest where the guy who did something gets the boost) wasn't enough. What changes has Moraes made to his game and can they be implemented against a bigger sturdier guy. For all of Assuncao's physical limitations (he looked like he was moving at Tim Boetsch speed vs TJ Dillashaw), his style works because of his size, how he implements his size/strength advantage and his ability to always get opponents to commit to fighting his style of fight. Assuncao beats you like the Patriots; he takes away whatever you deem to be your best path to victory and then asks you if you've got a good enough back up plan. Moraes didn't----so what's changing?

4- This is the first UFC card in quite some time that really seems 100% cool with loading up on Brazil vs Brazil fights without a short notice caveat (or a TUF finale). Your main and co-main events both have Brazil vs Brazil and outside of those two there are two other Brazil vs Brazil fights on the card. Wonder if that's just happenstance or the UFC is softening up on its stance of making these cards Brazil vs The World?

5- How ugly will rounds 2 and 3 of Good vs Maia be if it follows the usual Maia protocol?

6- Her debut went about as well as it could so color me intrigued in seeing Livia Souza again. This fight is a weird one though as rather than get a serious step up or some challenging middle of the road fighter who exists JUST for fights like these (looking at you, Randa Markos), she gets a DWCS debutante in Sarah Frota. There are some REAL Thiago Silva vibes from Sarah Frota from a fighter's perspective; the crazy tats, the menacing glare, the stalking with a heavy lead leg and the all power in every strike style she utilizes with extend-o arms to match. She's way too wild for Livia Souza in my estimation but if you watched Frota's Contender Series fight (as well as her SFL works), there's some danger here. It's a pretty compelling fight on paper.

7- The UFC rushing Johnny Walker into a fight with a guy who can strike really well but lacks any sort of power/wrestling game feels like the exact opposite of a set up fight. Ledet has boxed up heavyweights and while Walker's athleticism and versatility should lead him to the win, why put together a fight this dicey? Were there no OTHER clunky 205ers to find for the job?

8- Ricardo Ramos vs Said Nurmagomedov is a damn good fight but this feels like asking a lot of Said.

9- The UFC still wants Junior Albini to be a thing, huh?

10- Thiago Alves vs Max Griffin feels like a really weird fight to be excited about but alas I'm still with it. Griffin has developed pretty well in the UFC from the somewhat limited KO artist on the regional circuit. He's beaten Mike Perry, had success vs Curtis Millender in a losing effort and his fight with Elizeu Zaleski is one of those hidden gem sleeper classics. At this point in his career Thiago Alves is not the man who dominated the WW scene in 2009 and so forth but he's still got moments and glimpses of that guy. Griffin's improved everything but his striking defense as evidenced by him getting rocked in fights with Zaleski (multiple times), Millender and even a slim moment or two of trouble vs Mike Perry. This fight could be fun in a phone booth.

11- Kind of hidden on this card is Charles Oliveira vs David Teymur in a WHALE of a fight. Teymur came off of the failed TUF: Faber vs McGregor season where Artem Lobov and Ryan Hall were the two finalists. I think it's fair to say Teymur has eclipsed both of guys and in pretty short order. Wins over Drakkar Klose, Lando Vannata and Nik Lentz, all in fairly decisive fashion, have put Teymur in that weird breaking point spot other LWs have been before; he's good enough to be a top 10 guy but not flashy enough to get the fights necessary to creep into that mark. He's facing Charles Oliveira who is sort of the opposite of Teymur. Oliveira is a dynamic finisher with a slooowly developing middle game to get there whereas Teymur seemingly lacks the extra gear necessary to finish things against more competent opposition. This is fun stuff.

12- So does Lyman Good get RDA next if he wins?
