So glad Smith is interviewing and breaking down the fighters, has a high IQ for the game and is well spoken

Yeah i can see him as a desk guy , i know that he doesnt has the nice look of a guy like Michael Bisping or the charisma of Daniel Cormier but yeah i agree with what you say , he is an extremely well spoken guy and a high understanding of the game , he always takes his time when picking fights in the "pros pick" videos and has a strong passion for the sport. I hope for one day to be able to hear his voice as a narrator in a UFC event.

Joanna has the 2nd highest TD defence in the division, I think that will be key to her winning. Apart from kicks, I can't see Michelle beating her on the feet. Edit: "Apart from kicks", I couldn't have been more wrong. Joanna completely DESTROYED Michelle using kicks too! Amazing performance from Joanna!

You think little Michelle is going to be able to hold JJ down on the ground to "maul" her even if she does throw her? LOL!! How many of JJ's fights have you watched? A former world BJJ champion who is literally twice as strong as Michelle couldn't keep JJ on the ground, an All American wrestler couldn't keep JJ on the ground, Jessica Andrade couldn't keep JJ on the ground, but you think an atomweight Karate fighter is going to keep her on the ground and "maul" her. And Joanna doesn't really clinch that much.
I love to see Anthony Smith growing in this industry. He's a pretty good analyst.

Joanna lost to 1 Strawweight in her entire career. The other person she lost to was In a weight class above her, and is arguably the most talented female MMA fighter of all time (Valentina Shevchenko). And she fought a more competitive match against Shevchenko than anyone else except Amanda Nunes. Some of you guys are as dumb as dirt.
Really like both these girls, but man is Michelle such a good down to earth person. She has been inthe game working so hard for so long she deserves the best. I hope one day to see that belt around her waist!☝ 💯

Everybody can hate on Joanna all they want, but when she was the champ the division was constantly moving. She fought consistently 2 to 3 times a year. Now the division is stagnant and the rankings are all messed up.
I hear a bit of Conor McGregor and Israel Adesanya in Joannas voice the confidence is back! Let’s go!!!

I think her team leaked these rumours to mess with Michelle’s head , she was thinking the fight wasn’t going ahead then had to focus again
I had a feeling she would win this with relative ease but no one brought up her weight, but her. Had she not contacted the UFC for a catchweight bout a week ago, we wouldn't have ever known she was having issues and the media would not have hassled her.
