The opener that every female fan hopes for on Tinder...
My bio so clearly says “Swipe right if you’re watching UFC 255” though.
Always do your research first.
Any time Conor McGregor or Khabib Nurmagomedov come up when I’m asking about other fighters.
Tons of Shevchenko by submission picks for this fight.
When they definitely aren’t reading what you’re saying >>>
It’s the spelling of Shevchenko for me.
Women’s tennis. Psh.
Shevchenko by KO was the top guess.
Good fight and good wings is all we can ask for.
Champs are champs for a reason until they are dethroned.
Can’t argue with this logic.
It’s that they got Khabib’s name right and Conor’s wrong for me.
Will be looking for this exact finishing sequence in the fight.
Who isn’t looking forward to the Shogun fight?
Team: Jennifer Maia
Imagine getting 4/6 picks for Maia looking like this. That’s what happened.
Maia via Mental Preparation.
Fair enough.
Bonus:
This would have hurt if I was a McGregor fan, maybe.
We knew where this was going but we had to ask anyway.
It’s that opening line even though I never agreed to a date for me... then the rest of it.
“I don’t pay attention to the girls”.
That’s a shame.
“Especially girl bouts”..........
Results:
With that, we have come to the conclusion of the UFC 255 chapter in the Tinder Predictions series on Bloody Elbow. In total, we matched with 63 profiles and received 44 official votes for this matchup.
* I matched with significantly less profiles for this bout because I ran out of time but here are the results anyway!
Valentina Shevchenko - 38
Jennifer Maia - 6
In conclusion, the Tinder users have spoken, and by their vote, we should expect Valentina to defend her Flyweight title for the fourth time successfully against Jennifer Maia.
