GDT: UFC Fight Night: Stephens vs. Choi

[Sheppy]

This HW tilt is going to be insane. Probably the most pumped I’ve been for a fight in a long time.

 

[Kitten Mittons]

Crazy that they keep expanding inside the UFC - 4 divisions now and there's maybe 20 good fighters total at most.

They're good only in comparison. There is not one elite female fighter on the roster. JJ is up but her skill set is limited also. Maybe another 10-15 years until it will be worth watching.

Sure, it's all relative. But yeah, 90% of the woman's roster is trash.

 

[MD thaivuN]

women's Strawweight is a fine division with varied sets of talents. the other divisions? pretty bad with the average fighter being nowhere close to the meta mma game.

 

[m9]

Stephens coming out to some Nelly is probably the only thing I've liked about this card so far.

 

[Avs_19]

Stephens knows how to get the crowd on his side.

Probably only 2 or 3 more fights for Choi and then he's gone for 2 years because of mandatory military service.

Should've gone with some Country Grammar though.

 

[MD thaivuN]

hope Korean Superboy addressed some of his defensive issues.

Yeah, lots of options. At least it wasn't Hot in Herrre for the really cheap pop.

 

[MD thaivuN]

It's really when Choi doesn't have space that he has problems getting hit. He needs to be better at not getting backed up on the fence

 

[td_ice]

That's about an even as a round as you can get. I gotta score that one 10-10.

 

[Kitten Mittons]

Should've gone with some Country Grammar though.

Nah, Dilemma.

 

[td_ice]

Damn, each of these guys can take a punch.

 

[td_ice]

Wow, Stephens connected there.

It's all over.

 

[Know Your Enemy]

Horrible stoppage what the f***

 

[Kitten Mittons]

Maybe it's Choi's baby face but that was hard to watch. Poor kid.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

That was pretty nutty. They just decided the fight was going to end that round.

 

[td_ice]

Definitely a good stoppage. Not sure how it can't be. Choi is still down on the canvas minutes after the fight. He was done.

 

[Kitten Mittons]

I wonder if Choi can make 135. His legs are pretty thicc but some of the guys at 145 might be too heavy for him.

 

[Avs_19]

Stephens has some ridiculous power. Wow.

Choi's defense is still non-existent. Makes for exciting fights but he needs to fix that.

 

[Linda Bacon]

what a sh*tty card

 

[Linda Bacon]

I wonder whats the next step for Paige Vanzant, I understand she broke her arm but she was getting outmatched before that.

 

[MD thaivuN]

Choi's defense is what i would call: old-fashion mma defense. The "don't be there to be hit, but super easy to hit when there to be hit" defense

 

[darko]

Movie career.

 

[m9]

Great KO by Stephens. Was surprised to see Choi was such a favorite coming in - so much NFL this weekend that I didn't even look at any bets on this card.

I saw the PPV lineup for next week and saw this card, and all I could think about was "why are there so many cards"? If you had this main card mixed with the two title fights next week, you have a very good PPV. Instead, you have a terrible Fight Night card and a PPV with only two fights.
