The Ultimate Fighter 20 Finale (December 12, 2014)

[Ron_Paul_2012]

Holy fuuuck, they both have chins!!! Do they like to hang and bang as well Jibb?! Do they have hands and throw them?

Imagine a fighter that has a chin and has hands

And they both have 2 hands! I'm surprised that Jibs didn't point that out as well.

V I didn't think I had to spell it out for ya but I guess I do... Long over due....

- When I said fighters "both have hands and can throw them" in the past that ment the fighters have heavy hands, can sling leather, and have serious KO power..

- When I said the "2 fighters both have chins" that ment they both have solid chins and are not easily knocked out and or put to sleep, can take heavy leather and keep going, etc...

Are we clear? Feel free to continue to make fun of my comments I don't mind though..

UFC 데뷔전 앞둔 함서희, 한 체급 높은 세계랭킹 4위와 '한판승'[더팩트 | 김민수 인턴기자] 한국 여자 격투기선수로는 처음으로 UFC에 진출한 함서희(27·부산 팀매드·수박E&M)가 데뷔전을 갖는다.함서희는 13일(한국 시각) 미국 라스베이거스 팜스카지노리조트에서 열리는 'TUF 20 피날레'(52kg급)에서 조앤 캘더우드(28·스코틀랜드)와 격돌한다.함서희의 상대 칼더우드는 'TUF 20'에서 로즈 나마주나스에게 패하며 결승 진출에 실패했으나 여성 스트로급 세계랭킹 4위를 지키고 있는 강자다. 특히 함서희보다 신장이 10cm가량 크고 평 체중도 약 7kg 무거운 것으로 알려졌다.반면 함서희는 157cm 신장에 평소 체중이 51kg이다. '딥 쥬얼스'와 '로드FC'에서 48kg급으로 활동했지만 UFC에 이 체급이 없어서 52kg급에서 뛰게 됐다.함서희는 경기를 9일 앞두고 상대가 급하게 결정되는 바람에 충분한 대비 없이 자신보다 한 체급 높은 강자와 대결해야 한다는 부담감을 안게 됐다. 그러나 만약 이 경기에서 칼더우드를 이긴다면 단숨에 세계 최정상급으로 도약할 수 있다는 장점도 있는 만큼 격투팬들의 이목이 집중되고 있다.

"용기와 자신감으로 체격적인 열세를 극복하겠다."

한국 여자 격투기선수로는 처음으로 UFC에 진출한 함서희(27, 부산 팀매드·수박E&M)가 데뷔전을 갖는다.

함서희는 13일(한국시간) 미국 라스베이거스 팜스카지노리조트에서 열리는 'TUF 20 피날레'(52kg급)에서 조앤 캘더우드(28, 스코틀랜드)와 격돌한다. UFC와 계약을 체결한 지 40여일 만이다. 그는 지난 11월 3일 일본대회 '딥 주얼스'(48kg급)에서 이시오카 사오리(일본)를 상대로 2차 방어에 성공한 다음날(4일) UFC와 4경기 출전계약을 맺었다. 그러자 로드FC 정문홍 대표도 "더 큰 무대로 가라"며 로드FC에서 뛰던 함서희를 선뜻 자유계약선수로 풀어줬다.

하지만 상대가 만만치 않다. 무에타이를 기반으로 한 조앤 캘더우드는 2012년 종합격투기 데뷔 후 8전 전승을 기록 중인 강자다. 11월에 끝난 'TUF 20 피날레' 8강전에서 로즈 나마주나스에 졌지만 인상적인 경기력을 보여줬다.

그는 지난 5일 CBS노컷뉴스와 전화통화에서 "무패 전적에서도 알 수 있듯 강한 상대와 만났다. 나보다 체격조건도 좋다. 둘 모두 타격에 강점이 있기 때문에 재미있는 경기가 예상된다. 화끈하게 싸우겠다"고 했다. 함서희는 20전 15승 5패의 전적을 보유하고 있다. 현재 6연승 중이다.

본인도 말했듯 가장 우려되는 부분은 체격적인 열세다. 함서희는 157cm 신장에 평소 체중이 51kg이다. 반면 상대는 키가 167cm이고, 평소 체중이 60kg대다. '딥 쥬얼스'와 '로드FC'에서 48kg급으로 활동했지만 UFC에 이 체급이 없어서 52kg급에서 뛰게 됐다.

함서희는 "체격적인 면에서 불리하지만 용기와 자신감으로 열세를 극복하겠다. 소속팀 양성훈 관장님과 팀동료이자 남자친구인 김창현 선수, 친언니 등 주변에서 해주는 말이 큰 힘이 된다. '그래봤자 여자다', '다 똑같은 사람이다'라고 얘기해준다"고 웃었다.

경기를 9일 앞둔 지난 4일에야 상대를 통보받아 준비기간이 턱없이 부족하지만 그는 "UFC에서 계속 뛰어야 하고, (조앤 캘더우드는) 언젠가 붙어야 할 선수니까 심각하게 받아들이지 않으려 한다"고 마음을 다잡았다.

함서희는 "큰 무대가 처음이라 긴장되지만 항상 해왔던 것처럼 열심히 하겠다. 좋은 시합을 해서 한국 여자 파이터들에게 본보기가 되고 싶다"고 했다. 출국 일정은 아직 확정되지 않았다. 라스베이가스에는 양성훈 관장과 김창현 선수가 동행한다.

We'll take you up on that offer.

Ya know if she were a little more jacked like Tecia Torres & walked around @ 130 I'd say we have a new champion in the making! She needs to get on the same horse meat that Ubereem was on!

Thought it would be Randa Vs Rose.

Thought it would be Randa Vs Rose.

That's a semi-final. That fight'll air on TUF tomorrow.

[JIBBBY]

Gotta go with Charles "Do Bronx" Oliveira at +105.. Jeremy Stevens kinda sucks and should get exposed.. Nothing more needs to be said... http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Charles-Oliveira-30300

This line has value me tinks while it still lasts anyways... Was +110 and now +105 on 5D...

[Ron_Paul_2012]

How could they be in the final? They are fighting each other in the semi finals. What do you think the odds are that both Esparza & Penne get injured bad enough that they both could not fight & then Randa & Rose replace them?

[Keyboard Warrior]

alot of people will be surprised. She wont be rag-dolled.

I diden't know who was fighting in the semi finals. i really don't pay much attention to these gash fights since my girl Calderwood lost. atleast she's fighting on this card.

[Keyboard Warrior]

if you're worried about strength dont. Asian women strength is no joke brehs. ive felt it first hand. Kaori Icho and Saori Yoshida are two of the most dominant Olympians of all time. Both are about two weight classes too small and usually the smallest wrestlers on the mat compared to uSA/canada and europe/mongolia. Mongolian bishes are huge.

[Vaughany]

Backing Oliveira you are basically counting on him not getting caught with a punch! One Lil Heathen punch to the chin and Oliveira is gonna fold quickly

Weren't you referring to Diego Sanchez in your post Jibbs? - Lets just say that you ment he actually had 2 hands, because that statement wouldnt be flat out wrong, huh old buddy?

So you are going head to head against Sider & his girl Heo-Hee Ham?

[JIBBBY]

True V, Oliveira does fold like a cheap suit when cracked hard but he's only been KO'd twice in his 22 pro fights.. Both KO losses were by 2 elite strikers in Cub Swanson and Cowboy Cerrone.. http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Charles-Oliveira-30300

I just don't think Lil Heathen is an elite striker or as polished a striker as those 2.. Oliveira is fast on his feet and moves well enough to pick apart Lil Heathen Stephens at a distance..

V if you are set on Stevens - Maybe you should look for the prop - "Stephens wins by TKO/KO".. If Oliveira does lose this fight I'm sure it will be by KO... Stephens is a bully in the cage and certainly has KO power..

It just would be very hard for me to bet on a favorite that has lost 4 of his last 7 fights and that is basically a one trick pony these days in Stephens..http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Jeremy-Stephens-12179

[JIBBBY]

Jeremy Stevens does not suck...

You're right Stevens doesn't suck Marz.. Maybe I jumped the gun in saying that.. He just hasn't been that impressive in recent years is what I should have said..

It's a pretty focking good trick, one that Oliveira has a propensity for falling for. Silly logic.

He has looked the best of his career at 145, JIBBBY.

^By far.

Yeah MD, he looked great fighting Cub Swanson in his last fight.. He looked so good that he won that fight right? Oh wait he lost it... 2 decision wins before that against who?? Not impressed...

Oliveira on the other hand has rebounded well after his last KO loss, went the distance with Frankie Edgar and won 2 fights in a row then after.. The guy is still young at age 25 and still improving..

There are so many things wrong with this post that I don't even know where to begin. Oliveira "rebounded well after his last KO loss" by losing his next fight? Beating Andy Ogle and Hatsu Hioki is more impressive to you than beating Rony Jason and Darren Elkins (who beat Hioki)? Obviously you didn't see the Jason fight, given your "2 decision wins before that" comment.

And that "last KO loss" was to Cub Swanson, the very guy you-

Never mind, I could go on all day. You're a ridiculously unintelligent guy JIBB, it's depressing in some ways.

Engrish please

[marzwoody]

Seo Hee Ham is tiny compared to Calderwood. how do you see her winning this fight?
