@VicStrk 
2 future women's fights that are gonna show who's better in each area that should happen eventually - Blanchfield Vs. Karine Silva & Fiorot Vs. Natalia Silva

I was actually impressed that Murphy was able to stuff Tate's TDA so much, and it's hard to tell how good Karine's TDA really are. She was gassing bad in round 2 on Contender, and the entire 1st round she couldn't get back to her feet or mount any effective BJJ off her back while in bottom guard. These types of things give me concern

This card looks amazing but it’s for the hardcores. 300 will surely have more fights that will grab headlines with the general public, with fighters like McGregor or others like that.

Great card but hear me out. A lot of these could be snoozers. Mvp vs Holland could be a point fighting fight with a bunch of clinching. Mvp has had boring fights in the past when he doesn't fighting cans. Song vs Yan is a great matchup but they're both so high level and similar they could stall each other out. Jalton and blaydes could be a big time snoozer. Jdm and burns could also stall each other out. Not saying theyll all end up being snoozers I'm just saying don't be surprised

Bro there is no way JDM/burns and song/yan turn into stall fests, when has either of those fighters tried to stall for a fight?

Stall was the wrong word to use. I'm just saying they could cancel each other out since they're such even matchups. Again I'm not saying it'll happen just saying it's a possibility.

I’m personally not seeing it, just because you have two evenly matched fighters doesn’t mean it’s going to be boring. Yan vs song will be a crazy standup fight and JDM vs burns should also be one
