Whats up fight fans?!

Are yall ready for some fireworks? The main event of UFC 219 is as expected a title fight but who would think the ladies will take over the spotlight? Right, the fight game was mostly a man's sport, MMA in particular. Things change for a reason, now here we are - ladies are headlining one of the biggest cards of the year, awesome!

CRIS CYBORG

Cristiane Justino Venâncio, commonly referred to by her ring name Cris Cyborg. A former Strike-Force & Invicta 145 champion. Aside from Ronda Rousey and maybe Gina Carano - Cris is one of the biggest women's MMA stars, especially now as Ronda & Gina are out of action. Cris fights hard and always puts a beating on her opponents.

Pretty insane, she is undefeated since 2005 folks, 2005! Yes, we all know about her PEDs issues. She failed a test or two and is known for her notorious weight cuts. Seeing a few vids I can really say $hit looks nasty like she's about to die from it. But still comes a day later and destroys anyone across her for that 20 minutes or so. It's hard to go against skill and hard work that she brings to the table even tho we could say she is/was a cheat. Ronda was always dogging the fight with Cris for those reasons, if you ask me - Cris would demolish Ronda like she was a freshly made pie.

HOLLY HOLM

The preacher's daughter, most folks know her for the brutal KO of Ronda Rousey. Some even say it was the biggest upset in all MMA history, whatever. Ronda was never my friend - Dana White. I respect Holly's credentials back in the boxing days, even more, she was a multiple-time world champion in boxing, defending her titles 18 times in three weight classes, and a two-time Ring magazine fighter of the year (2005, 2006). She's ranked by BoxRec as the second-best female professional boxer of all time. Yeah, but this is MMA - Holly had a massive run coming to MMA.

Yeah, after winning the title at 135 things just didn't go her way. Fighting Miesha Tate was a quick turnaround even tho Holly practically won the fight on the scorecards, Miesha pulled the last minute victory with a rear-naked choke. I think fighters who lose after a long W run, just aren't themselves for some time after it. And we see lots of people going from a champion to being on a few fight losing streak. Albuquerque has one of the best teams in the world, proof of it is just the caliber of fighters coming from there. If they make a great gameplan for this one Holly could upset the world again!

PREDICTION

I feel if Cris rushes this battle to fast and loose she could get caught with a nasty leg kick on the way in and it will close the show. Holly destroyed Bethe Correia in her last fight while Cris also didn't do too shabby against Tonya Evinger.

I LOVE UNDERDOGS - HOLLY HOLM FOR THE UPSET!

Have fun, I will also post about the co-main event a bit later!

I really like Holm but I think Cyborg just has insane power . Not to mention that she's been working with Parillo on her boxing. Recipe for a murderer.

Khabib and Barboza is an interesting one. Everyone knows that Khabib gets a hold of you and it's over. He did, however, get a little rocked in his fight with Michael Johnson and Barboza is one of UFC's elite strikers. But if I had to pick it would be Khabib.

Great post, man! Can't wait for the fights! And the return of NBK!

Looks like a good card to the end of the year. I hope Holm kicks that steroid dude like she did with Ronda but I think the steroid dude has just to much power and will end Holm. Anyway I am more interested in the Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Edson Barboza fight and of course The Natural Born Killer Carlos Condit is back :)
Merry Xmas
LOVE&LIGHT

yeah I know brah:) I hate juiced folks!

Here if you really wanna know about Khabib & Edson:P

Much love back! Gonna smoke one now, it is what it is! - Max Holloway

I am really looking forward to this one! Finally a worthy opponent for Chris Cyborg. Holly already has my respect just from stepping into a fight many others have gone to ridiculous lenghts to avoid (cough GDR cough).

It is very difficult to think about Cyborg being defeated since she has both the expertise/skills and the power (I mean, just look at those stats!), however UFC217 showed us that no one is unbeatable and underdogs can win big time.

Also, I would really like to see Khabib fighting this time, after tiramisu-gate last time...

Great post, @kid4life! Keep up the good work :-)

Cris Cyborg and Khabib Nurmagomedov will win!

You never know in the fight bis;)

No one can beat Cyborg currently. Holm is going down just like the others
