Rising star Dakota Ditcheva remains undefeated after winning last night at the PFL event on ESPN2. Her striking was spot on, winning with shots to the body. Here are the highlights of the talents that make her a future global star:



(Her fight highlights were good too).

I saw YT video last night on Bo NIckal in MMA.
Question for the avid fans: is he actually do really well or was it just a fluff piece I watched?

Nickal has started about as well as you possibly can. Finishing everyone decisively and quickly. That being said, he has not yet faced good competition, relatively speaking. But that is the appropriate way to develop blue chip talent in the fight game. He has a fight coming up soon on a very big stage on the main card at UFC 300, but he will be a huge favorite as it is still a developmental opponent for him.

One interesting note. Nickal still comes off as arrogant, just as you might expect coming out of PSU wrestling. We will see if he becomes a fan favorite or not with his personality. A lot of people want to see him go up against Khamzat Chimaev, another top flight grappler who can strike, and who is not particularly likeable. I would love to see that fight, but Chimaev is much closer to a title shot at this point in his career (big fight against Robert Whittaker for him next).

I thought Paddy probably would have lost had his opponent not given up the third round. So stupid for that dude to do what he did. Dana called him out after the event. Paddy was clearly injured. His foot and three fingers/knuckles all might be broken, according to his post-fight presser.

Till/Du Plessis was awesome, and I think Du Plessis is going to be a future champ. Dude is massive for his weight class. Till, on the other hand… has lost 5/6.

The main bout was bleh. A draw. One judge fucked it up, and for once it wasn’t Sal D’amato. I actually didn’t have an issue with it being a draw. But Cleary’s scorecard didn’t make sense. I thought D’amato actually had it right overall. First three rounds to Jan, last two for Magomed. Last round was arguably a 10-8.
