Chookagian vs. Davis Breakdown

I think this matchupis pretty simple to understand. Davis will need to find a way to get this fightto the ground or Chookagian dances around her and picks her apart.


Chook made her UFCdebut against Murphy who was absolutely relentless looking to pressure and gether mitts on Chook. Despite it being her debut and having fought professionallyfor only 2 years, Chook was able to fight off the TDs for 2 out of 3 rounds andpot-shot her way to a clear 29-28 decision.


In her second fight,Chookagian wasn't able to stop the much faster and stronger Liz Carmouche, wholanded 4 TDs against Chook to win a split decision. Carmouche had the perfectentries to her TDs, closing distance with strikes and continuing to drive for aTD.


In her latest fight,Chook won another unanimous decision against Mara Borella. Fresh in ourmemories was the image of Chook punching at the air near Borella for 3 roundsand staying at distance. Though this conservative and boring performancedropped Chook's stock in the eyes of many, her ability to win the strikingexchanges against Borella while fighting off multiple TD attempts showed animpressive amount of patience and dedication to the gameplan. Borella's cornerwas imploring her to catch kicks, close distance, and land TDs and Chook'smovement and distance management left Borella absolutely flustered.


There's a lot ofreasons to think that Davis will have even less success getting Chookagian downthan Lauren Murphy and Mara Borella. Davis is slower and more plodding than anyof Chook's prior UFC opponents. Davis is only 33, but has been fighting professionallyfor 11 years. She also gave birth 2 years ago. Never much of an athlete, onecan imagine that all those fight years will add up soon, if they haven'talready.


Davis is also not aTD artist. She has landed 2 TDs since 2015. 1 was against Sarah Kaufman whereKaufman was actually attempting a TD of her own and got reversed. The other wasa kick catch which stumbled Carmouche backwards. One might be inclined to thinkthat Davis will be catching the many kicks of kick-happy Chookagian but I don'tthink it's likely. First off, Chookagian won't even need to kick here to winthe striking exchanges. Chook, if she does throw kicks, can throw them at theend of punch combos, which she has shown she can do in the past. Finally,Carmouche was throwing kicks at Davis in the pocket and was very off balanceddoing so. Chookagian's kicks are retracted faster and are thrown at distance.


Physically, Davisisn't strong or explosive enough to force Chookagian to the ground and willneed to be lucky to get it there. It may happen once in the fight, but onecan't rely on Davis doing it to win 2 out of 3 rounds (especially in the 3rdround where Davis slows down a bit).


This fight should becontested mostly on the feet where Chook will have a huge striking advantage.While criticized as an air-puncher, Chook landed over 100 strikes on IreneAldana, who is a legit striker. The fact that she committed less to her punchesand kicked much less against Borella seems to have been a calculated move toavoid being taken down. Even if she tries equally hard to maintain the distancehere, Davis has some of the worst striking defense in the WMMA and Chook's airpunches will inevitably land on the gravity well that is Davis' face, whichunfortunately for Davis shows damage as clearly as it takes damage.


Chookagian shouldwin a clear and wide decision here. She might even finish Davis late in thefight once damage accumulates.

Jose Aldo might just murder Jeremy Stephens tonight. Tell em Uncle Chael sent yah. #YoureWelcome.

That is third time you changed your opinion on that fight btw. First was Aldo than was Stephens now again Aldo. Odds suggests will be close fight and i would be all over Aldo if not for that he is thinking about legacy and retirement already.

[Hugo de Naranja]

This is going to be strange being at my first UFC Live and LIVE betting this bitch! Let's do this! First Fight Pass prelim starts at 2PM here lol. It's gonna be a long day! Good luck everyone!

Have a blast JC. Best of luck with your bets!

[Hugo de Naranja]

Then perhaps a Torres ML bet hedged with JJ decision parlayed with one of the other women's fights to go over 2.5 or gtd?

That's exactly what I did haha

Thanks Hugo! When are you posting your bets? Good luck to you and all!

I'm rolling with Aldo! Stephens decision odds are enticing for a poke though.

[JC2008]

Soon.

Awesome! Can't wait to see what you have.

[JIBBBY]

Jose Aldo might just murder Jeremy Stephens tonight. Tell em Uncle Chael sent yah. #YoureWelcome.

Maybe with leg kicks.. Aldo probably the better technical striker no doubt..

Still Lil Heathen has been winning fights lately, tough as hell, hard to knock out and can bang with the best of them.. If Aldo decides to stand and trade in the pocket at any time with Jeremy I think he'll come out of those exchanges unconscious and flat on his back...


Aldo hasn't been the same I think since he got dropped by McIrish..





Stephens does have some pop..

I’m 100% with you. I think Chook keeps it standing and wins. Be wary of judges, but yeah.

yes, learn to read clown before you tell someone something about what they write... just an idea. I left out the word "idiot," wow you really made a fantastic post there. Brilliant!

I'm the jackass because you can't type? Go spew your political garbage somewhere else on the forums. Fukkin idiot.

Let's get it Unc. Not too many of us on Aldo.

I think Aldo may make this look easy.

[turbozed]

Chookagian Rd3 at +2050 might be worth a play for a hedge or lotto.

If Davis is unable to close the distance, then she will accumulate damage for the first 2 rounds. She slows down a bit already and shows a lot of damage, so a ref might stop it if Chookagian feels comfortable and flurries on Davis like Carmouche did in Rd3.

If Davis does get the fight to the ground and takes the advantage with top control in the first Round or two, Chookagian may commit a bit more to her punches and kicks and look to get Davis out of there.

Definitely not likely but better than 5% chance to justify the odds.

[boss_of_um]

@ Hugo I've always meant to ask about the 2 sets of picks. What does each grouping mean?

[Rich Benjamins]

Thanks for the writeup. I never liked Davis, she is slow and clumsy. But she did beat Carmouche recently which is suprising. Carmouche beat Chookagian and her last fight, the Invicta champion. So using MMA math, which often doens't work, Davis should be able to beat Chookagian.
