    Surprisely imo- Torres on paper is a better wrestler, Andrade is just a force of nature tho.

    Probably 1-1 or possibly 2-0 for Andrade with that late TD in R1.
    I'm built like a rail and at basic I got paired up with the biggest dude in our flight for fireman's carry. In case you were wondering.

      Things were looking pretty bad for Andrade in R1 against Torres, it is good that Andrade showed she is capable of making adjustments- outgrappling Torres.

        Andrade is the Khabib of SW lol. Constant forward pressure. No ****s given about what you're throwing at them. Relentless/dominant takedowns.

        I know the skill level is different but yh

          Would love to see Andrade vs. Namajunas, that fight would be very interesting. Rose has the strength, footwork and grappling to nullify some of Andrade's skills but she doesnt fight too well going backwards, so Andrade could give her problems there.

                Damn. Way to kick a man while he's down. Don't really get why you trash a guy who isnt even ranked, did Perry talk **** about Colby first?

                  Don't know their history, but to just go at someone's woman like that is low-class and weak as ****.

                    He's just trying to piss as much people off in the world as possible. And while I wouldn't encourage that tweet... I can't help but laugh. He's very aware of what he's doing. I understand that doesn't matter for some but yeah

                      Thats Colby's style though, his built up persona. He makes these dumb *** comments then puts on boring ****ty fights.

                          This main event isn't getting much love due to them being relatively unknown. But stylistically this is a competitive fight, I have a feeling a finish is almost guaranteed.. But even with a 5 round war I know this should be good.

                          Stephens debilitating Melendez's legs is quite memorable. Emmett is a dark horse, I thought he would beat Lamas (due to wear) but I didn't think he would savagely KO him in the first.

                          I am rooting for Emmett, I have always like TAM. But it feels like Stephens is the rightful favorite.

                          I like these TAM v Alliance fights.

                            I got Emmett because of his grappling giving him the edge. It's what gave Frankie the edge against Stephens.

                            **** knows tho. We'll see. Should be scrappy

                              Ain't that the truth. Yeah, he's winning, but he's got an ugly *** style and is boring to watch. He's not putting any asses in the seats, that's for sure.

                                Completely forgot about the TAM vs Alliance rivalry.

                                If Emmett KOs Stephens then I am fully aboard that train.

                                I'm rooting for Stephens though, been a fan since he KOed Dos Anjos.
