Matches to Make After UFC 283

6 days ago Sherdog.com

AdvertisementThe first Ultimate Fighting Championship pay-per-view of 2023 was a curious one.The last PPV of 2022, UFC 282, had featured a match for the vacant UFC light heavyweight crown between Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz . And yet, after an improbable 6-fight winning streak, he choked out Blachowicz for his first UFC crown, at the age of 41. Hill came into the Rio de Janeiro arena a small favorite.As soon as the fight began, Hill repeatedly tagged Teixeira with his pinpoint accurate punches and thunderous kicks. Hill won a dominant unanimous decision and is the new UFC light heavyweight king.The co-main was an even bigger fight, as current champ Deiveson Figueiredo and Brandon Moreno met for a fourth time to determine the destiny of the UFC flyweight title. Of course, their first fight was a draw: Moreno won the rematch by submission, and in the third Figueiredo came back to win via decision.

Prime Picks: UFC Fight Night 213 ‘Kattar vs. Allen’

The only pick’em fight on the card comes between the two ranked competitors present in the excellent main event. Never in the UFC has Kattar been knocked down, and he has absorbed tremendous punishment over the years, including the historical beatdown suffered at the hands of Max Holloway in 2021. Luckily for Kattar, Allen has only displayed power in small pockets of competition, while mixing in takedowns to stifle some of the offense that comes his direction. It would behoove Allen to keep trying, if nothing more than to slow some of the volume aimed largely at his face. Against Gore, Fremd faces a man who is dangerous early and quite powerful but full of defensive lapses.

Sean Strickland Outstrikes Nassourdine Imavov in UFC Fight Night 217 Main Event

The pressure and forward movement of "Tarzan" worked well as the French fighter repeatedly got caught by punches in the first round. The second frame would see Imavov finding more success on the feet, which caused Strickland to switch up his attack by incorporating takedown attempts and clinch work. Imavov would show urgency in the fifth round but never came close to doing much damage as "Tarzan" remained the fresher fighter. "Rocky" would vary up her attack in Round 2 by going for takedowns and clinching against the fence, evening up the back-and-forth fight. This patience paid off as Nurmagomedov caught Barcelos (17-4)The stoppage officially came at 4:40 of Round 1.

Scouting Report: Islam Makhachev

Makhachev is certainly weaker on the feet, but exploiting that weakness is easier said than done. Offensively, he favors a dangerous overhand left that has hurt and knocked out opponents, so he is not without weapons in the standup. Borders on being subpar.By far his best strike, with good technical properties, including textbook tightness and plenty of rotation. He bites down on wrists, hips and even ankles, as he breaks down the base of his opponents whenever they try to build back up.Another area in which Makhachev excels. He can attack both the body and head, often utilizing thudding right hands and solid elbows.

Matches to Make After UFC 280

AdvertisementOn a main card full of question marks and asterisks, Islam Makhachev delivered an exclamation point.In the main event of UFC 280 , the 31-year-old Dagestani finished off Charles Oliveira with an arm-triangle choke after hurting him badly with a right hook in the middle of Round 2. In the wake of UFC 280 here are some matchups that ought to be made for Makhachev and the other main card winners:Frankly, the UFC didn’t need to make this matchup. One positive coming out of UFC 280 is that Makhachev has not yet fought Dustin Poirier Justin Gaethje or Michael Chandler . His win over Mateusz Gamrot on the UFC 280 main card makes it eight straight, the division’s second longest such streak after Makhachev. The UFC has three plausible options for Shevchenko, arguably its most dominant fighter: Fiorot; Alexa Grasso , who defeated Viviane Araujo last week at UFC Fight Night 212; or a rematch with Taila Santos , who arguably beat Shevchenko in June and inarguably gave her a closer fight than any of her other challengers to date.
