PBP UFC 299: O'Malley vs. Vera 2 Preliminary Card PBP Discussion: Sat. 3/9 at 6pm ET / 3pm PT

[Dirty Frank]

We'll see how Almeida handles a fight where he faces at least some resistance in the wrestling.

 

[Domitian]

I don't know if Blaydes can stop the takedowns but if he can it's a wrap for Jailton

 

[HolmeZy55]

When they open their mouths it's game over, for different reasons. Dern is thick as a rock and Dern doesn't speak English.

She speaks english, but she also doesn't speak english, it's more like portuglish.

 

[MMA4Life]

Am I crazy, or does Jailton usually weigh in in the 230s? He’s 261 for this fight. Curious how he handles the extra weight. Definitely coming to wrestle

Didn't notice. Odd.

 

[Siver!]

Sometimes they book massively important, fun-looking heavyweight fights like this, and they're on the prelims.

Other times they book two fight beer bellies against each other and it headlines.

Bless the Apex, I guess.

It’s funny Almeida now has a reputation of being boring, only one win wasn’t by finish. MMA fans will turn on you quickly.

Boring? I love this fucking guy.. he is like the HW Khabib.

He came in heavier in this one.. 241lbs. If he can grapplefuck Blaydes I will be very very impressed.

He is a nightmare for 90% of HWs.

 

[CleverNameEh]

What's a "Malhadinho"

A small Malhad, duh

 

[sanguinius]

Why do they keep showing the 298 promo?

 

[LouisBolanos]

Curtis is now completely bald on top

 

[Arm Barbarian]

Hard for me to root against either of these guys. Both nice guys. May the best man win.

 

[milliniar]

Let's go Almeida.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Blaydes is a sharp kid

 

[whocares]

Getting to that point where I actually ponder buying the PPV. Annnnnnd past it

 

[Siver!]

I absolutely love Blaydes in this fight. Absolutely love him in this fight.

But we'll see just how good Jailton is, and if he wins, WOW.

Awesome fight.

 

[KAZSoliloquy]

Imagine if he just threw a headkick and KO'd little dude <Lmaoo>

lol there's one of those videos from middle/high school football. defense was supposed to let the down syndrome kid score a touchdown but one of the linebackers didn't get the memo. fucking leveled him lmao

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Idk how this fight goes, it's as interesting a matchup as they could have made. All things considered, and there's a lot to discern, I'm taking Jailton bc I feel he's the better athlete of the two

 

[Like a fiddle]

I want to put money on Blaydes stuffing those takedowns and taking out Jailton, but I just know he'll make me regret it.

 

[marvinparsons]

If Almedia can wrestle here he might actually be a Khabib like force for HW.

I think he gets sprawled and bullied but honestly it's very interesting if he can pull this off because it's a tough test for him.

Great matchmaking
