i think it's really cool that pat barry got sober and has his poo poo together now so that he can be there for his child bride after she takes a life changing beating

Novum posted:That doesn't mean it won't be fun to watch I guess I prefer fights that are competitive or have some mystery rather than just watching a nice young person get her face boxed into paste. I assume they are making this match since Rose has name recognition, but she's so far from Joanna's level that this fight makes me cringe.

She's probably had to have made some major strides to make it competitive considering she lost to Karolina Kookies (best) not too long back

i liked watching anderson completely dismantle no hopers so i have no problem with it except for the possibility that pat barry goes on a rampage and hurts the other guests at comet ping pong

Pat Barry roughly patting a broken Rose like a rabbit after the title fight is something that ends badly for everyone.

I didn't watch the TUF she was on. Has Rose been comprehensively out struck by anyone?

that's a cool fight. I'm really interested to see if Rose can keep up with JJs pace. i doubt it, but she's young and improving so maybe. but it may look like the Penne fight

Joanna tends to let herself get out-footworked and backed into the cage and that's where Andrade and Gadelha got their most consistent offense off; Rose's footwork is decent and her best offense comes clinching against the fence, so her path to victory is playing the cutoff game, brawling into the clinch against the cage and trying to gently caress Joanna up with elbows and drag her to the ground. But that path is like three inches wide and Rose's striking defense means there's very little reason to think Joanna won't just carve her the gently caress up when she tries to get in.

If Andrade and Gadelha couldn't control JJ I doubt Rose can iirc Joanna actually reversed Andrade against the cage a few times later in the fight, just to make a point I imagine

Getting a crack at the title and then suffering the death of a thousand jabs isn't the worst way to go. I wonder if JJ gets first dibs on the new 125 champ.

Joanna needs to fight Valentina at 125 at some point I think. That would be awesome.

Marching Powder posted:as i recall this is exactly how she lost to kk. she was winning on the outside at all times and for some reason insisted on fighting into close range and getting hosed up lol Yeah, Rose's angles were getting to KK so KK started going to the plum and Rose would just go with it because she's too aggressive for her own good. chaleski posted:If Andrade and Gadelha couldn't control JJ I doubt Rose can Also completely accurate. To be clear, Joanna's going to gently caress Rose up super bad, that's just the only path to victory I think Rose has; Joanna isn't as susceptible to weird angles as KK from the outside and she's at her best in the pocket.
