With the experience of a victorious fighter, and now of a multi-role in the service of MMA, accumulating the functions of referee, manager, coach and event promoter, Carlão Barreto commented, exclusively for the website SUPER FIGHTS, the UFC-100 belt disputes, between Georges St Pierre e Thiago Pitbull for the welterweight title and Brock Lesnar vs. Frank mir for the heavyweight belt. The black belt analyzed the characteristics of each fighter and how he believes the fight will unfold
Georges St Pierre vs. Thiago “Pitbull” Alves
As a Brazilian, I will be rooting for Thiago, especially because I saw this boy still fighting in the Northeast, and I always had the impression that he was a different fighter, who would have a great future in the sport. Now we need to analyze the fight objectively, therefore, I see Thiago as an underdog, because on the other side we will have one of the best pound-for-pound fighters today, a complete athlete, a fighter who has mastered the fundamentals of combat sport.
I see the path to the knockout as the possibility of victory for the Brazilian, after all he is a strong, fast athlete, with devastating blows, if he knows how to exploit these qualities at the beginning of the fight, he has a real chance of becoming the 3rd Brazilian to hold the belt in the most important event. trendy on the planet.
I've been watching some of Thiago and GSP's fights, the foreigner is the epitome of the modern fighter, he's more complete and experienced than our compatriot, if Thiago can't use his explosiveness to cause a knockout, I think the belt will remain with the athlete Canadian, who is a great strategist and in today's MMA, strategy is extremely important to achieve success. But our sport is a success, mainly due to its unpredictability, anything can happen, let's hope that the Brazilian is in its day of glory and so our country will have another champion, thus dominating the number 1 event in the world of martial arts.
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank mir
Brock Lesnar vs. Frank mir It will be a tough fight! Lesnar is increasingly used in the cage, his evolution is clear, at first I thought he was a kind of Bob Sapp, freak show, but no, the guy is an athlete, he was an All-American, that is, he was once the best in a modality that is a basic part of MMA, wrestling. He has a right kick, seems to have good cardio, is a fighter with a lot of strength, a difficult stop for anyone, even Fedor.
Your opponent, Frank mir, shocked the fighting world by knocking out one of the greatest fighters in the history of modern MMA Rodrigo Minotauro. Therefore, he gained everyone's respect, in other words, he regained everyone's respect, after all he had already demonstrated before that he is a versatile and talented fighter. He overcame a serious motorcycle accident, which almost ended his career, he was aimless for a while, giving poor performances, but it seems that he has rediscovered the real meaning of the sport, and from the interviews he is well motivated for this confrontation and ready to consolidate his name as heavyweight champion.
If Mir can withstand Lesnar's initial pressure, he will win this fight, now if he doesn't enter the octagon concentrated, and doesn't execute his expertly trained strategy, he will be beaten by the giant's momentum and physical strength. Brock Lesnar.
