Friday's 'Legacy Fighting Alliance' was a great aperitif for Saturday's action, especially considering 'LFA 105' had two Strawweight fights on the card! Tabatha Ricci continued her rise, with a solid second round stoppage of the extremely game Shawna Ormsby. And the night finished with Piera Rodriguez gaining the vacant Strawweight title. In a fight that was closer than a five o'clock shadow! AND, Canaan Kawaihae made quick work of his Co-main promotional debut, with a slick arse ninja choke Saturday night had the most stacked card of the year so far, in 'UFC 261'. There were great fights from the opening, BUT, our three title fights REALLY didn't disappoint, everyone had something different and left you flabbergasted There was a thought that if anyone could topple the bullet, Jéssica Andrade was the woman to do it. Valentina Shevchenko though went 'Blueprint 2' and was like "I'll show you how to do this son", cause her skills be a one of one, that means none before it, none to come!!! In the Strawweight fight we were expecting some dazzle, BUT Rose Namajunas brought the BANG Just a minute in she hit a front foot head kick that was perfectly placed for some sweet chin music.....AndNew AND then, the talk coming in was what can happen on a full camp. The answer, staight devastation!!! Kamaru Usman showed that those fists are anything but pillows. He sprang forward quicker than a viper and laid a right cross that would have floored a rhino The weekend was brought to a close by 'Submission Underground 22' and what we learnt from this fun filled card was...... Zack Schneider is a slick SOB, BUT, you can not give Andrew Alexander an inch, cause he will f@&k you up! Kyle Chambers game is so advanced, Neo refused to face him. His heel hook entry was smoother than a Tesla's acceleration It's a shame to see Ben Egli retire from grappling, but can't wait to see his rise in MMA! And Mason Fowler doesn't care what you come at him with, cause he's gonna choke you regardless! So, let's break it all down, in today's (ep 179) @ChinCheckPod - LFA 105: Rodriguez vs. Gotsyk - UFC 261: Usman vs. Masvidal 2 - Submission Underground 22 *(Music) 'All the Way Up' (feat. Infared, French Montana) by Fat Joe - 2017 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/eftv/message

'Legacy Fighting Alliance' opens things up crazy nice Friday night with '105'. The card has a couple of promotional standouts doing their thing. Tabatha Ricci will be looking to continue her slick streak when she goes against Shawna Ormsby. And Mark Martin must think that a great performance against Renato Valente will bring him within touching of a title fight. AND, talking about titles, the vacant women's strawweight title is on the line, as Svetlana Gotsyk will go to war with Piera Rodriguez to see who walks out AndNew It's all been leading to this, 'UFC 261' might be the best card so far this year, headlined by THREE title fights!!! Leading us into the title volcano though, are out three 'Straight Fire' selections for the card. Alex Oliveira vs Randy Brown leads us into the Main card, and what a great scrap this should be. Then, it all opens up with Anthony Smith the vet, title challenger, never say die warrior steps up on short notice to challenge the young gunslinger, 'The Brute' Jimmy Crute who wants that shine, that seat in Valhalla, and to get into the title picture! AND, to really get the scene set, we have the rematch between Uriah Hall & Chris Weidman eleven years in the making! Times are different, but not their drive to win. So for them, everything is still on the line! So, let's break it all down, in today's (ep 177) @ChinCheckPod - LFA 105: Rodriguez vs. Gotsyk - UFC 261: Usman vs. Masvidal 2 - Submission Underground 22 *(Music) Swagger Back by Keith Murray - 2003 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/eftv/message

We'd lost some big names, so 'UFC 260' was just ten fights, BUT, it held it down on Saturday night! Four decisions, two submissions and four KO's, people. Marc-André Barriault got things popping with a dominant third round finish with FOUR seconds left in the fight! After being stopped with it in his last fight, Alonzo Menifield brought the Prelims home with a quick 'Von Flue Choke'. The Main card opened up with fireworks, as Jamie Mullarkey took care of business like someone was after him. In and out in under a minute. Now, there were questions for Sean O'Malley going into his fight....which he answered with aplomb The utilisation of range was superb and even after a misstep meant he didn't get a first round finish, we didn't see O'Malley rush or get sloppy. and he finished with a stylish third round exclamation point! In the Co-main, we finally got to see the old Tyron Woodley. He came out with a renewed fire that was great to see. BUT, Vicente Luque is no joke. You can't just hurt a coyote, cause that's when it's super dangerous. So even with Luque being hurt, he was able to turn it around and get the 'D'arce Choke' finish AND, people, the 'Biggest, Baddest, Rematch' was the straight up truth. Francis Ngannou showed a growth and evolution that we'd heard was there, but hadn't seen in the Octagon. Once he stuffed the first takedown attempt, you knew something special was going to happen. Stipe Miocic went out like a champion, but right now, we could be entering a new era....AndNew So, how do you top that, well Heather Standing teased it last Friday and damn did Chael's 'Submission Underground' deliver the goods Sunday night!!! 'SUG 21' #SUG21 opened with 'don't blink' moment from Aaron Tiegs. Cause Andrew Sidelinger was doing everything right, until the game got switched and Tiegs pulled off a slick 'Arm Triangle'. The Prelims ended in style with Kyle Chambers vs Chase Davis. And Chambers really did his thing, enough so, to warrant Dana telling Chael to dish out some cheques The Tag Team match had a team member sub a team member lol Andy Varela locked up his biggest challenge with a great win. And in the Co-main Amanda Loewen again stands tall, dominant and still the 'Women's Absolute Champion'. And Mason Fowler did it again, retains the belt and mangles more dreams. So, let's break it all down, in today's (ep 167) @ChinCheckPod - UFC 260: Miocic vs. N'Gannou 2 - Submission Underground 21 *(Music) 'My life' by Styles P & Pharoahe Monch - 2002 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/eftv/message
