Alexa Grasso vs. Manon Fiorot - Who wins?

[Mittens]

I have no idea, and no real confidence to even make an asspull of a guess. But they got my attention if/when this fight happens.

 

[Urluberluu]

same result for Blanchfield before the fight
we all saw what happened

 

[Rum that Chimay-Leffe]

Manon will easily outmuscle sherdog's little princess

 

[swarrrm]

Whoever bets fight ends in a decision

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

There's no way in hell any of you actually think Manon can beat Grasso...liars lol.

Uh, why?

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Grasso has way worse wrestling than Blanchfield. There is nearly zero takedown threat from Grasso. People have such short memories on here. Manon handled Rose easily and Rose is a better striker than Grasso. How does Grasso have better striking? It's even at best? She hits harder. I'll give her that. Manon has kicks that she didn't use.



I definitely think she beats Grasso. She outstruck Rose with ease. She is stronger and can take Grasso down just like Val has been able to do over and over. This lady tried to take down Blanchfield immediately, and she survived. No one else will do that.

Tbf, Rose broke her finger, then won the third round anyway.

 

[Kyojiro Kagenuma]

Manon would probably win after seeing what I saw last night.

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Fiorot will look better in that fight than this one being that she'll be answering a striker, but I think Grasso should still take it. Maybe Manon's kicking game also becomes a factor without fighting a grappler and that's enough to put her ahead. Who knows?

I know this fight was boring but Fiorot vs Grasso I find to be at least pretty interesting, if not the potential to be pretty exciting

 

[FreedomCricket]

Blanchfield cooperated. Grasso won't. What happened to the shorter fighter bobbing and weaving in? Ala Mike Tyson?

Lol, blanch hopped in and get popped every time.

 

[ElZid]

Fiorot wins a pretty one sided decision.
When it comes to WMMA some of y'all think it's a beauty contest or some, instinctively leaning towards the better looking girl lmao.
Grasso never was that good.

 

[fortheo]

Fiorot fights awfully similar to how val fights: they're both southpaws who love to sit back and counter with the check hook and enjoy the advantages of a southpaw. The difference is that val has better wrestling and grappling, but fiorot is bigger.

We've seen grasso answer that approach by switching to southpaw herself and attacking the legs, and using feints and preemptive head movement to then explode into the pocket where she has the better hands. Rose switched to southpaw and started landing more on fiorot, too.

As for the wrestling, we've seen that grasso's bjj and ability to scramble is very, very good. Fiorot's defensive wrestling is good, but she's never shown to be a smothering or dangerous top game player. I think grassobwould be fine in on the mat, maybe even out fiorot in bad situations.

I'd favor grasso, slightly, especially since fiorot is going to be like 35 any day now.

Uh, why?

Did you watch a different fight than me last night?

Rose was basically fighting with one hand, not exactly an accomplishment sir.

Don't make me have to wrestle fuck you, bruh.

You just put wrestle in front of fuck so everyone doesn't know how gay you are, my little cajun poofter lol

Alexa has better boxing, Manon is a better kickboxer. Outside a lucky shot by either I think they essentially cancel each other out standing. Manon's wrestling looked decent against Blanchfield, combined with her strength and size it'll likely be enough to negate Grasso's. The issue is grappling; Manot presented her neck like it was the Revolution all over again last night and Grasso's sub game is slick. I'd wager Grasso by sub, but wouldn't be surprised if Manon was able to nullify Grasso's offense for five rounds and take a decision.

You mean the one where she dominated the most unstoppable force in the division???

Yeah, I did watch that lol.

I'd argue that surviving a guillotine from Blanchfield is a lot harder than anything Grasso can throw up. And I do think Grasso is a dangerous grappler obviously.

she was put in a guillotine in the only 20 second grappling sequence of the fight. If fiorot is going to have to rely on grappling to beat grasso, there will be far more opportunities for grasso to snatch something than just a 20 second scramble.

It is a much different fight than the Blanchfield fight, as grasso is a completely different fighter than blanchfield.

Grasso's back take and face crank on Val in the first fight was more impressive than anything I've seen Blanch do in the grappling realm. She got that position fast and Val had never been sub'd. Nobody saw that coming.

Manon showed good composure in a tough spot last night but I'd not wager her to survive on the ground with Grasso unless she can outright muscle out of positions, which I doubt. She's stronger and bigger, but not by that much, and less way less technique.
