UFC Flyweight Carli Judice Just Kicked Her Opponent's Head Into The Stratosphere
WOAH - WHAT A HEADKICK IN THE WOMEN'S FLYWEIGHT OPENER!
Carli Judice just sent the consciousness of Yuneisy Duben flying into no man's land with a question mark kick from hell! Put it up there with Valentina Shevchenko decimating Jessica Eye and Holly Holm sending Ronda Rousey/Bethe Correia into retirement immediately - this was as good as they come. Perfectly landed, shockingly powerful, and the best finish you could ask for from an Apex opener.
Not to be outdone, Priscila Cachoeira just caught a body in the very next fight, with a thai style uppercut that FLATLINED Josiane Nunes....
It ain't often back-to-back women's fights have knockouts that brutal AND hit the under! This rocks!
Tonight's card isn't amazing in relation to some of the stacked ones we've seen recently, but it's kind of an in-between week (with UFC 313 last Saturday and UFC London next) and competing against college basketball; that being said, there's so many wiiiiide wide lines that I can see it being full of finishes. Hopefully it's highlight reel knockout after highlight reel knockout just like this.
P.S. I'm conflicted on the main event - I think Vettori's gonna win but it also feels wrong betting on an Italian during St Paddy's Day weekend.
