Magana’s out of the Fujii fight with a toe injury. She’s been replaced by Carla Esparza. Same odds being offered as the Magana fight.

I dunno, Eddie’s a wrestler more than anything…he’ll dump Groce on his back and grind out a decision, methinks.

I thought that Eddie Sanchez was more of a standup fighter primarily using boxing.

Yeah, you’re probably right…I think I was thinking of someone else.

Sanchez doesn’t really strike or wrestle. He just… does this.

Megu/Grove wouldn’t be the worst parlay you could have…

I really don’t like these non-title fights. They either give them cans so they can’t lose or put them against legit opposition and risk them losing in a non-title fight and devaluing the belt.
