In other news, Gabi Garcia is apparently trying to get down in weight for her MMA debut in March, which will apparently be at women's middleweight (does this even exist?)

Not really. Maybe she can go to Japan and see if Deep/Jewels is still doing openweight fights. Or just fight George Lucas' daughter

She was supposed to make her debut in Japan last year but backed out when she found out they wanted her to fight Megumi Yabushita, who's 42 and 135 lbs.

That's like she signed up to do MMA and they tried to get her to play the villain in a televised snuff movie. edit: God, if I found the right Megumi Yabushita, she's even 19-22 on top of everything. They wanted her to murder an elderly Japanese can fighting up four entire weight classes. Schenck v. U.S. fucked around with this message at 04:52 on Jan 18, 2015 |

I think the key to Shields being successful against Palhares will be grappling aggressively and actually trying to put him on his back. Having good TD defense is kind of meaningless against Palhares because he's perfectly happy to shoot and then just fall back to guard and snag a leg if the takedown gets stuffed. Whereas if Shields shoots on him and takes him down, his options are a lot more limited. Like he probably has a decent armbar off his back but it's not nearly as dangerous as the leg attacks.

Sprecherscrow posted:Shields vs. Palhares is actually very interesting. No idea who takes it. I'm legitimately excited to see that. My guess is that Palhares's power and strength will allow him to take control initially, but if Shields can survive he's an amazing scrambler and he's really stifling from the top. The guy went to the mat with Demian Maia and plain shut him down. Palhares tends to fold mentally if he can't destroy a knee right away, so I can see Shields surviving, working his way to the top, and either riding Palhares out or even submitting him if he gasses/gives up hard enough.

If Shields/Palhares fought like next week, I'd put money on Shields, dude is legit and got cut for bullshit reasons + Palhares is a way more "flawed" fighter imo

Palhares is dangerous until he gets punched, the most satisfying moment of Marquardt's career is when he escaped a leg lock, Palhares immediately went to complain to the ref about cheating, then Marquardt punched him a lot to a stoppage.

I liked Maia trying to stand with Nate and getting punched into orbit better.

I had to go check Fedor's record because I apparently forgot that the Bigfoot mauling ever happened and noticed this hilarious piece of sour grapes. Wikipedia's MMA community is great.
