UFC 234: Whitaker vs Gastelum
Posted on 2/9/19 at 8:19 am
Posted on 2/9/19 at 8:19 am
Main card (PPV at 10 p.m. ET)
Robert Whittaker vs. Kelvin Gastelum
Anderson Silva vs. Israel Adesanya
Rani Yahya vs. Ricky Simon
Montana De La Rosa vs. Nadia Kassem
Jim Crute vs. Sam Alvey
Undercard (ESPN at 8 p.m. ET)
Devonte Smith vs. Dong Hyun Ma
Shane Young vs. Austin Arnett
Kai Kara-France vs. Raulian Paiva
Teruto Ishihara vs. Kyung Ho Kang
Undercard (UFC Fight Pass at 6:30 p.m. ET)
Lando Vannata vs. Marcos Rosa
Callan Potter vs. Jalin Turner
Wuliji Buren vs. Jonathan Martinez
Card seems real top heavy. Outside of the top 2 fights no real names on the card.
In theory the comain should be great but at his age not sure how much Silva can hang. Anything can happen though.
Main event,hard to pick against Whitaker after going against Romero twice and winning both times then fighting the smaller guy. Kelvin has a great chin and cardio though and he had been sporting a saints hat... So I am rooting for Kelvin.

Would be a great ESPN+ card, not worth $65
Silva is my all-time favorite fighter but it’s hard to imagine him winning. He’s likely gonna be a step too slow in this fight.

I got Whitaker and adasayna by tko.
I don’t think the Silva/bender fight will be close. I think it will happen quick and be one of those “why did they allow this fight to be made” type of deals.
However I hope I’m wrong bc prime Spider is about as fun of a fighter as the world has seen

Are they letting him juice up?

UFC needs to start having back up fighters ready for these title matches
Posted on 2/9/19 at 2:23 pm to wildtigercat93
100% agree.
This sucks.

Some fights they have
Dudes go through full camp as a back up

Problem is Gastelum isn’t a headliner so if you replace Whittaker it’s still not a main event

A more sustainable model may be to cut back the events to once ever two months or something like that and stack the cards with two headlining fights with back ups ready
Got to find a way to actual keep the fighters healthy by fight time

Damn. This makes this card probably the worst ppv ever.
Posted on 2/9/19 at 3:08 pm to wildtigercat93
Card is a glorified ufc fight night now. The smartest decision would be to change it to espn+. The best thing for the ufc is if Israel clowns Anderson which I hope doesn't happen.

Adesanye went from -550 to -410...
Posted on 2/9/19 at 3:24 pm to JG77056
Just put 20 on the Spider at +375... in case it’s his last fight maybe he’ll retire with a W
