I said it before, whatever TAM is doing with Barber is working and they should be fully credited for her striking turnaround. It seems like the future is now, and Barber probably gets a title eliminator fight against Andrade or something after Blanchfield's shot.

Ricci also looks very good, and it would be nice to see how her style holds up against dangerous power punchers like Lemos and Andrade as we have seen in the division that usually volume/pace punchers won't earn enough respect to keep heavy hitters from finding impact in the pocket(Hill's last fight, Rodrigues' last fight). Loving the stance switches and power jabs from both sides, and did work in mixing in the takedown threat even against a ground game threat like Gillian.

Pretty good fights so far. I've been waiting to see Zhumagulov. Mostly for the haircut.

Zhumagulov made the 3rd round competitive but Van was impressive. Gave him 30-27.

zhalgas has the torso of a lightweight, the legs of a flyweight, and the head of someone born and living in the 60s

I'm going with Emmet. Tuporia has been "hitable" in his last fights, and I believe Emmet has a chance of caught him on the feet. It should be a fun bout. Can't wait.
