However simply because we’re targeted on the UFC’s landmark pay-per-view occasion, it doesn’t imply we are able to’t take a fast look again on the week that was and the highlights that have been.

Matias Olguin vs. Damian Ojeda

Sadly, I couldn’t discover this full struggle from La Battalla del Puente anyplace, so we’re going to need to make some educated guesses about what the hell Damian Ojeda was doing right here.

It is a middleweighty-looking middleweight bout that went previous the midway level, so I’m considering Ojeda ran out of gasoline and that’s why he let Matias Olguin tee off on him. These appear to be a few lifeless arms to me.

That stated, it’s extra enjoyable to think about that Ojeda has pure alpha blood coursing by way of his veins and determined at this level within the bout that Olguin couldn’t damage him after which prompted Olguin to carry that s***. And no, it didn’t work, however any a type of haymakers might have landed fallacious and damaged considered one of Olguin’s arms. Then what? TKO win for Ojeda.

In actuality although, uh, an exceedingly horrible thought and it performed out as anticipated. Arms down, man down.

Ferrin Marcelin vs. Yannick Krahenbuhl
Michael Reddemann vs. Sovankesa Som

Going full “Hulk smash!” on individuals is the theme of the week to this point, with Lights Out Excessive Preventing’s Ferrin Marcelin additionally unleashing brute drive to choose up a win.

9 out of ten occasions, you most likely shouldn’t try to slam your means out of a triangle. However that one out of ten occasions the place it really works? Chef’s kiss.

You recognize what method works ten out of ten occasions? Kicking somebody within the head and or face space.

Take it away, Michael Reddemann.

When head motion goes fallacious. Poor Sovankesa Som leaned his head again into the precise fallacious spot and caught each a part of Reddemann’s foot.

Ruka Tokito vs. Ryusei Kuratomi

This DEEP Nagoya Affect occasion? Additionally appropriately named.

As I stated, head kick works each time. On this occasion, it was Ruka Tokito guaranteeing himself a victory by throwing this chin proper to the chin and leaving Ryusei Kuratomi slumped towards the underside rope. For anybody who says you may’t get too damage in an novice bout, nicely, possibly present them this clip.

Whilst you’re at it, get those self same individuals to hearken to the audio of this punch.

That’s really from a professional bout between puncher Shoya Oiwa and punchee Takamasa Nogi, however my level stands. Preventing is frightening!

Jack Schaal vs. Tyler Triplett

Again to Hulk smashing, novice type. From Caged Thunder 26 in Akron, Ohio:

I don’t know what Tyler Triplett did to make Jack Schaal indignant, however Schaal discovered it in himself to summon the spirit of Brock Lesnar and ship Triplett to Suplex Metropolis. This was a one-way ticket too as a result of as soon as Triplett’s physique hit the mat, he wasn’t getting up.

Isaac Muluh vs. Shadrack Nsua

Isaac Muluh’s wild swings on this subsequent clip might sound amateurish, however there’s no arguing with their effectiveness.

From EFC Worldwide 112 in Sandton, South Africa.

Shadrack Nsua was bullying Muluh earlier than two looping pictures turned the struggle round in seconds. That’s three finishes in three professional bouts for “Supremo,” who must also be comfortably favored in any nickname contest.

Igor Siqueira vs. Eimar Hernandez
Mark Choinski vs. Noah Lindsey
Kurtis Ellis vs. Canon Swanson
Salvador Hernandez vs. Martin Alvarado

To the land of UFC Fight Pass we go, first stopping at LFA 181 in Prior Lake, Minn., we’re Iqor Siqueira popped Eimar Hernandez with a proper hand down the center to seize a vacant interim flyweight title.

He landed that dangerous boy in the midst of an alternate too, you need to like it. With the win, Siqueira presumably units up a match with flyweight champion Eduardo Henrique. That, or he will get a Contender Sequence call-up.

Mark Choinski can be greater than deserving of a shout after snatching this stunning armbar with simply three seconds remaining in Spherical 1.

It takes nice consciousness to acknowledge that 10-second clapper, assess your place, after which execute a submission like that. Choinski, 5-0, 4 first-round submission wins. Don’t mess with this man on the bottom.

Lastly from LFA, we regretfully have so as to add to the ever-growing list of failed Masvidals with Canon Swanson as our newest entrant.

If head kicks are profitable each time, flying knees are most likely extra of a 25 p.c proposition and on this case we noticed the 75 p.c consequence. Kurtis Ellis merely waited, loaded his left hand, after which shot a clay pigeon out of the air.

Now you may click on on over to Final Warrior Problem 52 in Tijuana, Mexico, the place Salvador Hernandez shut Martin Alvarado with a textbook two-punch combo.

This was the professional debut for each under-25 fighters, so Hernandez can declare the bragging rights and Alvarado can hopefully take a lesson from the 95 seconds that it lasted.

Jong Pil Kim vs. Jung Received Lee
Jun Hwan Lee vs. Sang Yul Kim
Dong Hyun Shin vs. Valentin Compagnon

For followers of the superior rule set, you need to completely get pleasure from what Jong Pil Kim and Jun Hwan Lee did at Ring Championship 4 (free replay accessible on YouTube) in Seoul this previous weekend.

Once you hit the bottom in Ring Championship, you aren’t secure; nay, the hazard really escalates as you may see within the highlights above. As quickly as they noticed their opponents in a compromised place, Kim and Lee aimed some extremely vicious knees at their faces. The consequence? One other mark within the win column and a little bit of blood.

Muay Thai fighter Dong Hyun Shin didn’t draw blood along with his end, although I might be stunned if this spin kick to the liver didn’t lead to inner bleeding.

I’d consider that he may need cracked a rib there too, the way in which Shin drove that heel into Valentin Compagnon’s midsection.

Jake Peacock vs. Kohei Shinjo

I’m assuming most of you heard about Jake Peacock’s spectacular ONE Championship debut at One Friday Fights 58 in Bangkok final Friday, however in case you missed out, try the limb-different fighter’s highlights under and skim extra about him here.

Peacock is lacking a part of his proper arm, however that didn’t cease him from throwing elbows and head kicks with the perfect of them. He went on to win a unanimous choice over Kohei Shinjo.

There’s that previous saying about the way you don’t wish to be a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest, however Peacock confirmed you can nonetheless kick loads of ass even if you happen to’re otherwise abled.
