#CB99talks 140 (Scrap over Strap)

Alright WMMA fans, this week’s episode comes at a time when the fights are a little slow so I decided to bring up a topic that’s been on my mind. This topic revolves around the last few fights over the past few weekends. After watching several ladies perform to a high level of urgency, I come to the conclusion that there are some fighters that may not reach the top, but their performances will keep them in the UFC. Putting on a crowd pleasing performance is necessary for fighters that have a lack of skills to get near the top 10 or near the belt so letting it all go is their next best choice. Also we’ll discuss the state of the women’s UFC bantamweight division. Can the division get back to where it once was?

#CB99talks 137 (WMMA Catch up)

Seems like I’m always behind when it comes to fights because there’s always a card I missed. So the past couple weeks I had to catch up on fights when there was no UFC card.

#CB99talks 136 (Nothing but the best)

We are back after a great weekend of fights! Last Saturday’s UFC Noche turned out to be a crowd pleaser and one for the books. The main event along with the fights on the prelims have been part of the discussion this whole week. I’ve discussed the actual fights so now lets talk about what’s next for the winners and losers of the fights. After a solid return to form for Loopy Godinez, she is now in the top 15 so now it’s time to fight up. Tracey Cortez makes a great return in fashion and she is ready to return make her title run. The young Josefine Knutsson won her debut so its time to see her in the cage with another young hungry up and comer. Of course last but not least, the top five of the flyweight division looks great so question is, will Shevchenko get her third fight against Grasso? Will Erin Blanchfield or Manon Fiorot take on the champion next, or will they battle each other in a title eliminator? Don’t forget its fight week we have Bellator 299, and UFC fight night. Tamires Vidal vs. Monsterrat Rendon, Mizuki Inoue vs. Hannah Goldy, the rematch between Marina Rodriguez and Michelle Waterson. So tune in here or wherever you listen to your podcast at!

We’re here WMMA fans! We have another solid card ahead of us tonight. Four WMMA fights which includes two straw weight bouts and two flyweight bouts. Of course the main event which Alexa Grasso is ready to defend her title against the Bullet Valentina Shevchenko! Grasso has proven in the first fight that she is a hungry and improving fighter and deserves to have that belt, but Shevchenko believes it was all a mistake and she is ready to destroy. Both fighters have finish on their mind and want to make a major statement so the odds appear to be even. Before the main event, we have two new comers to strawweight Josefine Knutsson and Marnic Mann facing off. We also have Loopy Godinez taking on Elise Reed. Tracey Cortez makes her return against the gritty strong flyweight Jasmine Jasudavicius. Then the main event kicks off with Grasso ready to shock the world again and Shevchenko ready to redeem herself. So tune in and lets talk about the fights!

#CB99talks 134 ( A Night in Paris)

Welcome back fans, returning with another live show! Lets talk about the fights in Paris! I didn’t get to watch the Prelims on fight day so I went back to watch the performances of two new bantamweights. Jaqueline Cavalcanti easily won a decision against Zarah Fairn at a catchweight bout. What happens to Fairn from here?? Nora Cornolle wins her UFC debut in a controversial decision against Joselyne Edwards. Did Nora do enough to get a 30-27 card?? Finally the co-main has Manon Fiorot making her return against Rose Namajunas making her debut to flyweight! Fiorot was able to get by Namajunas in a competitive but earned decision. Was this victory enough to get a title shot? Was Rose’s dislocated finger really the cause of her losing the fight? Lets talk about it!

#CB99talks 133 (The Complete Fighter)

Welcome back WMMA fans, back with another episode and back to keeping the site updated! It was a fire weekend for WMMA with great match ups that translated into great performances. First lets talks PFL 8 and the quick finishes and how well Marina Mokhnatkinais shaping up to be. Karine Silva avenged her loss to Maryna Moroz in a quick dominant fashion and definitely is a force coming up at 125. The other Silva girl, Natalia Silva also showcased a level of skills and technique that will for sure give the top ladies trouble. Zhang Weili again showed why she is the definition of a well rounded by putting it altogether in a dominant memorable performance over the dangerous puncher in Amanda Lemos. Also Erin Blanchfield and Taila Santos will be fighting this weekend so tune in and lets talk WMMA!
