Manon Fiorot takes decision over Katlyn Chookagian.
Lackluster.
These two had a lot of the same issues that Grasso and Araujo had a week ago, and honestly that a lot of the women’s flyweight division has. Including Valentina. There is no manipulation of rhythm and space in exchanges. These two threw from the edge of range and then the exchange would just end. Sometimes Katlyn would land first, other times it was Fiorot. Lots of one and dones (not in terms of volume of strikes but combos). And since neither was comfortable being in range, they ended up coming up short or firing from too far away and giving the opponent time to react.
In that third round, Fiorot threw a 3-2 that came up short. Chookagian went to answer and instead was cut off by a long side kick from Fiorot. Fiorot escaped unharmed but it wasn’t really a big scoring shot so much as a defensive maneuver. And Fiorot kind of had to throw it cause she was out of position. Now what if she had thrown the 3-2 with the knowledge that Chook would try to follow her back and instead tied up in the clinch? Or just fired another big left hand as Chook was stepping in. Those are the types of exchanges we are missing at 125lbs. Instead we got Fiorot and Chookagian trying to play hard tag from range but missing cause both were too uncomfortable to go beyond the initial exchange.

Taila Santos "très jeune" face à la "spéciale" Valentina Shevchenko à l'UFC 275 ? Jessica Andrade prend la parole
Taila Santos “très jeune” face à la “spéciale” Valentina Shevchenko à l’UFC 275 ? Jessica Andrade prend la parole
Valentina Shevchenko est une grande favorite pour son combat contre Taila Santos lors de l’UFC 275 à Samedi à Singapour, mais la vieille femme Jessica Andrade est chimiste dans la victoire sur la compatriote du Brésil.
Andrade au Festival Shevchenko en avril 2021 après avoir arrêté Katlyn Chookagian de manière violente avec ses débuts et beaucoup d’argent. Mais à l’UFC 261, elle a été dominée par…

“I’m not sure how to feel about this card but Jon Jones vs Dom Reyes is great shit.” UFC 247 Preview
Joey
Feb 2nd
The UFC rolls into Houston, Texas for a very STRANGE card. It's had some injuries and pull outs that changed around its dynamic (imagine this show if Jimmie River vs Marlon Vera and OSP vs Ryan Spann) but it's got the bare minimum which is two title fights followed up by an underdcard with big dudes on it. That's basically all I ask for. It's definitely not the UFC's best offering but when you consider that they lost three good fights and had a PPV come up at the last minute? I've seen worse. I guess. Jon Jones vs Dominick Reyes and Valentina Shevchenko vs Kaitlyn Chookagian are basically your drawing cards anyways.

Main Event Exemption ():
Twelve Precarious Ponderings
1- When @theanticool and @cerealsensei says something, I feel compelled to listen because if he's not right, he's able to put things together in a logical enough sense that it makes me consider things. So when both say that they think the end of the Jon Jones reign at 205 lbs is coming to an end, I feel compelled to consider it. It's hard to really judge just what Jon Jones is and we're entering Anderson Silva territory where Jones is the world's most blasse unbeatable fighter ever. He's in that pre-Chael Sonnen phase where Anderson just sleptwalked through fights and struggled to amuse himself for five rounds of blegh. So is Jones about to prove some mortality? I kinda don't know. The three guys to come close to giving Jones an L was a super athletic and long limbed Alexander Gustafsson, Daniel Cormier in both their first and second fight (fights he still lost decisively) and the Thiago Santos fight where Jones just...sort of fought. The right people are telling me Jones is vulnerable----but I'm just not seeing it. Perhaps I'll believe it WHEN I see it and perhaps Reyes is the dude to bring that out.
2- So what does Reyes do well? For starters, it's hard to think of a fighter Jones has faced in a bit who possesses genuine stopping power with his hands. Anthony Smith hits pretty damn hard but he's more of a master of accumulation, Thiago Santos can wipe dudes out with his legs but really only has one serious finish with his hands (Jan Blachowicz) while DC's punching power seems to come and go depending upon the situation. Gus has tremendous hand speed but his finishes in the UFC were mostly against the likes of guys like Jimi Manuwa and five rounds worth of abuse vs old man Teix. Reyes has power and if nothing else, that'll give him a shot to do things in those brief moments where Jones' defense lapses and his chin is out there to be touched. Also I've seen Reyes have to adjust gameplans and make a swap up as he did vs Volkan Oezdemir, even if you can debate whether it was enough to WIN the fight. Lastly? Reyes is well rounded enough as a wrestler, striker and grappler that he's not as one dimensional as some of Jones' other opponents and he's not broken down like Gus was. Also don't forget that Reyes is a young 30 years old and not with over 30+ fights like Anthony Smith and he's a natural LHW.
3- I wonder if Jones will feel more motivated to get as finish in this one given how much flak he took by not finishing a guy with torn ACLs in both legs?
4- What does the UFC want more; a Jones win to get him to move up to HW for a big summer show run OR a Reyes win to finally have a sellable rematch for Jones that doesn't involve the retiring Daniel Cormier?
5- Is a finish like the one that Valentina Shevchenko got vs Jessica Eye actually a bad thing? If you go through Shevchenko's UFC history; you've got a lot of pretty damn boring five round fights with the occasional "holy shit" finish. The Jessica Eye finish is the Holy Shit-iest of the Holy Shit finishes----but in the process, it created this somewhat unfair expectation that Shevchenko is capable of doping that all the time. She may be capable of that but she rarely if ever takes that risk. Part of it has to do with the fact that most women are so petrified of getting what Jessica Eye got that they wind up hanging out away from the firing range, opening the door for Shevchenko to leg kick with an occasional takedown on the back end to control women. It creates for boring ass fights but would we be more willing to accept a boring fight if we didn't know she was capable of highlight reel finishes as well?
6- Chookagian tends to be a hyperactive striker so chances are Val is going to take her down and finish her BUT Shevchenko is prone to bouts of inactivity mid round and so I wonder if Katlyn Chookagian has the capacity to steal a few rounds just by doing stuff when Valentina isn't doing anything.
7- Fair to say Mirsad Bektic is just going to be a top 10 filler name and not a real contender any time soon? He draws rising MMA manager and pro fighter Dan Ige on the main card.
8- A lot of people griping about HWs on the main card but this is a sport of size and the BIG BOYZ are here to throw fisticuffs!
9- What's Ilir Latifi's plan in the move up to HW? Is the goal to stop cutting weight and hope his sledgehammer power is able to travel with improved cardio on the back end?
10- Keep an eye on Miles Johns vs Mario Bautista. Got potential to be a wild scramble fight with subs aplenty.
11- Journey Newson had a pretty impressive debut as he overcome a really rough start to give Ricardo Ramos some trouble with his pressure game, length and boxing down the stretch of a loss on short notice. He draws Domingo Pilarte on the prelims and Pilarte is a wild fighter at 135 lbs who is coming off a disputed decision loss in HIS debut. Should be a really great fight on the ESPN+ portion of the prelims.
12- Do we pencil in Alex Morono for a bonus of some kind already?

The theme of these ESPN prelims thus far has been up and coming contender beats long standing high ranked opponent on the down slide, but not in a super impressive fashion. Gamrot over RDA and Phillips over Munhoz.
Guess we'll see if the pattern holds for Maycee Barber against former title challenger Katlyn Cerminara (formerly Chookagian) and Jailton Almeida against Curtis Blaydes.
