MMA ODDS AND ENDS FOR FRIDAY: BIG NAMES RUMORED FOR TUF 18
Veteran MMA journalist Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer recently published the rumored list of female bantamweight fighters who are set to appear season 18 of”The Ultimate Fighter,” which has been filmed at the upcoming few weeks and which will broadcast this autumn. Here would be the rumored boxers: Marcia Allen Shayna Baszler Revelina Berto Jessamyn Duke Ashlee Evans-Smith Tonya Evinger Tara LaRosa Valerie Letourneau Bethany Marshall Lia Mata’afa Gina Mazany Katie Merrill Roxanne Modafferi Peggy Morgan Julianna Pen Raquel Pennington Colleen Schneider Again, this list is no set in stone but All These women tried out to the show at Las Vegas and there is undoubtedly some talent here. Among the most fighters are Shayna Baszler, Tonya Evinger, Jessamyn Duke, Tara LaRosa and Roxanne Modaferri, all of whom are veterans of women’s MMA. There hasn’t been any list of the bantamweights that will appear on the series of those rumored men but it’s likely they will be leaked out in the coming weeks and months. Both the men and women will be trained by UFC women’s bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey and No. 1 rival Cat Zingano, who will face off against each other this December. UFC on FX 8 Requires Reshuffling The UFC on FX 8 card continued to undergo modifications, and it was reported today by that middleweight Costa Philippou is out of his bout against Ronaldo”Jacare” Souza using a cut and also in his place steps Chris Camozzi, who was set to fight Rafael”Sapo” Natal. Natal will now fight UFC newcomer Joao Zeferino . Camozzi is presently riding a four-fight win series but”Jacare” is a massive step up in competition and Camozzi will probably open as a significant underdog. My gut tells me that Souza opens about -300, together with the comeback on Camozzi being +250, but it’s possible the public bets on Camozzi since they did in his last outing against Nick Ring at UFC 154 (and they were correct in doing this ). However, expect the sharp action to come in on”Jacare,” with a large number of benefits in this particular bout, not that of least is his A-plus ground game. In terms of Natal vs. Zeferino, one can anticipate Natal to open about -250 or even greater. It will be a weak line because Zeferino is a little bit of an unknown, but this is a fight that Natal must roll in, at least if it’s the Natal that has been hot as of late. The Camozzi vs. Souza bout will now take the co-main occasion slot at UFC on FX 8, while Natal vs. Zeferino opens up the evening’s most important card. The main event, of course, is a middleweight bout between former UFC light heavyweight champion Vitor Belfort and former Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold.
