#UFC #UFC300

Will it be Yuri praska in the red or Alex poda in the [Applause] yellow your Championship Main Events is underway I mean the St switching and all the different angles Jer Braska gives you it’s crazy he’s got Alex backing up already look for Alex to get out those leg

Kicks he kicked me the other day low like that Joe it hurts so bad and he wasn’t even kicking me hard well he doesn’t even turn the hips over which is so scary cuz you don’t see it coming praska has worked really hard on stabilizing that injured shoulder strengthening the supporting muscles he

Says it’s still a little bit tight the awkwardness of the angles that peros shots come at is so hard to prepare for it’s so different than anything they teach you look at that that’s what we’re talking about I mean crazy crazy crazy power can take too many at can’t I mean

Yan found out about it and Yan’s made out of [Applause] bricks in both fights he compromised Izzy’s left leg quick Yuri said he did not fight well in the fight against Glo toer he said that he can be so much better he said expect him to be better [Applause]

Tonight his leg’s already hurt it’s already hurt it’s already HT hurt it’s a real problem that kick and he does it better than anyone in the world look at that oh my goodness he doesn’t even show you that he’s going to do it yeah he’s already got that leg beat up man touched

The four it’s already in real trouble it’s already wobbling and it’s already swollen that is crazy and there’s a stamp switch from Yuri proos two minutes gone by round one look at the bru on the back of his leg already the thing is as long as this is

A striking exchange you have to understand although prasa has ridiculous power no one is more skillful than paa he’s so slick and he just gets credited for his power but it’s his technique and his craftiness that’s unexpected and again he gets it yuu’s trying to take him down that

Smarter Yuri getting on the single leg push him up against the Octagon side Got Deep yeah that’s tight y’s got to ad Justice can’t yeah oh no he’s okay he his hands off great job by Yuri only take down down for prasa now we got to remember prasa has a

Sub submission Advantage I mean he did submit Glover to Sher which is incredible Glover is one of the best submission artists in MMA this is not in any way shape or form where P wants to be yeah while there has been ground Evolution this is certainly more Pro

Hoska World under two minutes round one and it’s early in their Drive and I just love that how smart Yuri is to do this right because like you said John he has improved but there’s still a lot of learning to do for Alex Pereira especially when he’s doing what he’s

Doing on the feet if you’re Yuri proski you have to do something different so far good defense by P yep controlling posture minimizing damage but now it’s in a much worse position he flattened out working defensively right in front of his Corner blow to Sher we have to

Remember this is exactly what happened in the yovic fight he defended well and he has a fantastic coach in G to share who’s really dedicated his time to learning that ground game learning that defense oh Big Shots big shots inos one thing that P does on the ground is

He doesn’t really take chances he tries to just stay safe hold you in tight pull you close and just let the time run out now he’s getting back up his feet which is huge could be huge might a nice right hand from P now praza advances he’s going to kick his leg again

[Applause] oh nice uppercut from praska late in the round but the leg kicks could have been enough for p to get ahead all right here we go round two Alex P center of the Octagon in yellow Yuri praza in Red left hand got home for praza early round two Ros with that very unorthodox styling switch to Southpaw now he’ll go back and forth equally effective from both sides and had said early on that he wanted to beat paa at his own game in the Striking but that changed

Quick when you take about four those leg kicks you realize you barely push off of your lead leg right you start to reevaluate how you want to approach the fight and good for Yuri to recognize it early enough to give himself an opportunity to win the first

Round a lot of nuance though to what praza is doing right lot of f giving P things to think about backing him up but man that leg just threw it there Yuri won’t stop throwing Yuri’s going to continue to fight the entire time as long as he has an opportunity

He’ll keep working good jab from Alex Pera and now he attacks the body he hit the leg again and again it’s so slick the way he does that and Yuri’s having a hard time stepping off on it already yeah he is you know Yuri was kind of play but it’s hard for

Him to do that from the conventional stance because Alex keeps throwing that leg kick oh nice oh and a right hand for prosa back po KNE to the body for Yuri big shot by oh yes oh now P returns to IR LS the body for proos yeah Yu’s got him hurt

Yu’s got him [Applause] hurt that’s what Yuri needs to do in a stand up just make it real dirty and ugly yeah and pressure keep them up against the C keep thinking about those take Downs big reset and deep breath from the for middleweight champ Alex

Beta coach Dean Thomas what do you have sir yeah Joe just hit that right on the head the whole first round proska what he was doing was he was faking the shot and Alex would just back up and slightly back up but now what he did was he

Backed him up into the fence where he had no space to move so now he has to use his defense to block to either defend the punch or defend the take down that’s why he’s able to get them hands off if he keeps Alex up against defense

He’s going to have a lot more success faking the Tak down and coming up with strikes good left hook there from Pera and now in need of the body P Waits too much on his taked down defense if y Yuri step to the front with that right leg get your hands locked

Bear hug him and use your Sid to try to drag him to the mat Yuri’s left leg is already horribly booed and that’s usually when Yuri initiates the clinch after he takes a real hard leg kick both Fighters able to lend leg kicks in that

Exchange oh nice job by Yuri it’s a big right hand the counter mistake right he’s going to do this welcome to the history book and new UFC light heavyweight champion poon I thought perrero was making a mistake by Elbow looked like he was going to be taken down wow Yuri must

Have fell back I couldn’t see it at this angle two World titles crazy so here he lands a right hand it’s a left hook and it’s a left hook here from poon right hand left h no that’s the left hook he hits with these punches and then

Hears the elbows and he drops and sinks wait you’re right you guys are right maybe a little premature it’s a little early I mean uh I’m I’m not satisfied with that stoppage I mean he was definitely hurt look he drops he was hurt but I think that was a little quick right hand

There’s the left hook that drops him he goes down and here’s the elbows he sinks after the elbows he does go back right does he react yep he did he react no I mean look he was hurt bad he was hurt really really bad he gets up he’s real

Wobbly H I feel like he pulled the trigger a little early I would have probably let brosin take a few more shots just because of the importance of the fight but I mean that is just Alex pra look at that some nice shots to the

Side of the head from pada he falls back yep right here ref jumps in soon as they go back I mean Yuri turns immediately I’d like to see him get up to see how wobbly he was when he stood to his feet or how present he was man look it always

Sucks when that happens too because let’s see how present he was when he stood up let’s see if he’s fall all over the Octagon but it sucks though right because you don’t want to take nothing from Alex in that great accomplishment right well there was an immediate scramble from Yuri

Praza and generally speaking you like to see maybe one extra beat in a world championship fight yeah but Alex P man dude he’s amazing he’s N9 and2 as a mixed martial arts Pro ladies and gentlemen referee Mark Gard has called us stop to this contest at 4 minutes 8
