    So many people talking shit about suarez in the comments.
    The chick is a dawg and a warrior bro shes literally just happened to have a string of bad luck in the ufc. Its not like shes out here trying to hide from fighters cause if im not mistaken she took some time away cause she had some sort of cancer? And just has had the unfortunate luck of getting riddled with injuries alot but regardless suarez is a beast. Like a female khabib and she has a legitimate shot at beating weili

    I think Tatiana will finish Weili. I think Tatiana will take some punches from Weili on the first Round, but I see Tatiana taking Weili down and finishing her. That’s my opinion.

      @ I’m not saying Weili is a bad fighter. I agree with you, she’s a great fighter. Weili never fought with a opponent that is very good on the ground. Rose is okay on the ground and yet she gave Weil lots of problems. Don’t mention Carla because Tatiana is way better than Carla.

      @@jorrba3934 I mean, Tatiana hasn't fought a striker as good as Weili either, she didnt fight Joanna nor Rose, the best striker she once fought was Grasso, who was a stationary punch-for-punch boxer at strawweight who even lost to Carla and Herrig back then. Andrade is not a technical striker either, on a losing streak, all power nothing else and got clowned by Yan

      @@RCDAI-s1s I agree in regards of Tatiana not having a lot of experience with the best strikers. My point is if Rose can get Weil on the ground, I don’t see a problem having Tatiana getting some takedowns and eventually beating Weili on the ground. It’s going to be an interesting fight though.

    • @RCDAI-s1s

      @ Rose set up her TDs with confusing striking pace and faints, hat's why when she suddenly shows the straight right and dig down it's hard for her opponents to react. Tatiana does not have the striking to set up. Her footwork is not slow but awkward and gets pressured to cage easily. Her kicks are easy too catch and trip. If Tatiana is really that unstoppable TD machine, she would have ourwrestled Andrade and Grasso better than Valentina did, which she obviously didnt

      You do realize that the only success Yan had in that fight was due to Weili gassing a bit due to beating the piss out of her. The fight should've been stopped multiple times, but Herzog showed again why he's one of the worst refs in the business. It's rare where someone gets choked out, and TKO'd, and is still allowed to continue in the fight.

    Great interview Danny. The womens strawweight division aint ass. The problem is Weili only fights once a year. Hell I thought after she beat Montana De La Rosa at 125 to get her feet back under her after 3 1/2 years away from neck injury she should have gotten the title shot. Fans and media are so desperate for Tatiana to make it to the cage cause 312 is ass. Its not worth the 80 dollars. They would have to pay us to watch it. I agree with Danny, thought it was weird how Tatiana was booked twice last year. I thought the rumored fight didnt make sense with Virna Jandiroba for the same reason like she said.

    • @high5786
      @high5786 5 วันที่ผ่านมา

      You're new to this. Weili was expected to fight the winner of Grasso vs Valentina 2.0. Dana was going to announce the superfight but Valentina was injured. That's the reason Weili was at the sphere. Virna vs Tatiana was already set that time. Since Weili was in camp, she herself offered to defend the title & that was why Tatiana got called out for the title. Gth with your narrative badmouthing Weili.
