Sarah is a super nice person and Jessica don't give fuck. I'm rootin for a draw, but highly doubtful. I hope they turn into a back and forth fight. They are both 1-2 in their last 3 fights so it makes sense, this card is almost as stacked as Meishas ____.

Hopefully this is on the FightPass prelims

 

[Papi Chingon]

Larkin vs masvidal should be the main event. Has font written all over it, imo.

I've got Larkin in that one. You?

I do as well. Masvidal is better suited for 155 and Larkin has looked excellent at 170.

Sarah is a super nice person.

Yeah, but I wouldn't want to roll with her, she's a killer.

I'm not that interested in this fight. Both these husky-voiced women have been quite disappointing post-USADA.

 

[Punch]

Eye seems like the kind of gal you'd want to smoke some weed with while you're working out.

 

[TheFifthScallop]

Excited to see Paul Felder get at it again.

 

[Ranger]

I think sarah wins via wrasslin; I like Masividal, and am picking him to win. Masivadl said he is 191 on the mmahour...so he isn't a small WW. I think he is more complete than Larkin and has better wrestling, and boxing than Larkin. Won't be surprised by Larkin winning, but I'm going with Gamebread. Larkin was outgrappled by Tavares of all people, and Tavares isnt a collegiate wrestler. Masvidal has good td's and has outgrappled Michael Chiesa.

Then you both go back to her shitty, messy apartment, have disappointing sex and part ways awkwardly. At the gym the next day, the awkwardness continues and grows into mutual hatred. Life sucks.

.... not that I have every been in such a situation.

[Narcosynthesis]

Both need to win, especially McMann. Eye isn't a true 135er so she'll never amount to anything in the division. Her only hope is for Dana to live up to what he said and create a 125 lb division.

I think McMann is going to maul her.
