00:00An official peer sponsor of the UFC one year separates these two young women in age
00:06Rose is one inch taller and it's Alexa with the two-inch reach
00:12Advantage who again is coming in as the minus 150 favorite her feet our referee for our first fight of the evening
00:18Ready to fight ready
00:20Let's do it
00:22And we are underway first fight
00:26Episode 7 this season they Nara in the red can say sound the blue
00:38Can say so of course coming in with that
00:41Wrestling background the seven-time national wrestling champion in Brazil, but feeling much more confident in the stand-up game as you alluded to
00:51Check those two low kicks though. She's gotta be very careful taking those kicks
00:55I
00:57Already
00:59In top half here
01:01Although can say so has that wrestling background that we talked about it is fine
01:04Our that has much more of a submission for this matchup. You know, what's crazy about watching?
01:13Different and odd to me how these high-level wrestling fighters
01:18Don't tend to possess the best take down the fence
01:23You mix in punches it changes everything does change
01:29For the trip they're just missed
01:32And it's curious because you wonder how often these two sparred with each other when they were training together at at the bus family
01:38down in Brazil
01:41It sounds like quite a bit from what from what Alexa said. Yeah
01:48I
01:53For a wrestler to me rules always look so composed in her stand-up
02:02Just misses the need us can say so
02:07That's another outside low kick lands for Alexa see sounds gonna have to deal with that
02:13Okay
02:16Laura so watching
02:21Watching the next one video
02:23It doesn't do her side justice. I agree. She is much bigger thicker than you get when you watch television
02:31It's so strong physically
02:41Trying to land that left elbow she just missed the last time
02:49We make a joke about this Laura nine about how I don't generally watch the series
02:54I made this great joke about I want to watch these fighters with fresh eyes
02:59Because I didn't want to do the study, but I watched it a and I was very harsh on these women
03:23And say sound back to her feet
03:26I
03:29There's just a confidence about her too, right we'll talk to her
03:38Joy that you see emanating from her when she's able to get out there and get me what she better do
03:46It's going to left
03:55In the LFA
04:09You know
04:15It's not hanging up in the air like she did earlier in her career before she would throw punches and her chin
04:22bad
04:26Kick is nasty. She is working on that lead
04:34Nice neither by
04:41A couple of her own on the break
04:44I
04:54Do 30 to go here in the first round of our first fight of the night
05:00Good right hand
05:02Oh
05:12Swing it away with ten seconds to go here in the first
05:22There are landed a couple of those knees
05:33This is got nothing
05:47Let's take her down
05:58You're flying
06:03I'm not a mule
06:15Right here you see this beautiful level change by Alexa she overthrew her punches
06:20She got it on her hips no chance to defend and it was a lot of these outside low kicks that were very successful
06:26for Alexa
06:29Ready let's fight
06:31Alexa with the significant strike advantage in the first round 31 to 13 is more than doubled up can say so also has
06:39to take downs along to go
06:42With the strike advantage continues to work on that front leg
06:48She's doing all of this without even throwing a push to set up the low kicks imagine if she starts to throw a jab
07:01I
07:05Stop slipping punches
07:15Round and pound coming from
07:17Just so
07:28And physically just dominate her and again, this is what you gain
07:35A UFC caliber fighter very early in your career like she did against
07:41Her only career loss to Bruno Silva via guillotine in 2019
07:47I
07:51Also has a rear naked choke win over
08:04Needs to get some respect here
08:07Gotta get some respect. She's gotta stop winging her
08:09Her left hook while she's trying to time it. It's such a big motion every single time you can see it coming
08:18Her corner are asking her for the takedown, but I don't know that she feels
08:23comfortable
08:24Closing the distance to look to level change. I don't believe we've seen a level change from
08:29Say
08:44This is the opportunity for can say so to get this fight where she most likely would want to be
08:51It's really where he wants her to be
08:54That's our power. I haven't known of it
08:57Right there's on that gas to mention pushing a very high pace
09:02She ain't one there for consent
09:05And until that shot it seemed like it was staying are doing a much better job on distance management here despite the the reach disadvantage
09:12I think Laura was completely right about that Laura
09:16Understanding what happened in those training sessions
09:19Yeah, the way that she is attacking her. It doesn't feel like there was ever a time
09:24Where yeah, I think she's thinking about
09:32She was fainting a spinning kick there a moment ago, but I was I mean she's starting to swag out a little bit
09:36you can feel the
09:38The confidence growing
09:43That she's losing
09:45I
09:52Was sitting at the meeting today
09:59If you would have beaten John Jones if you just spawned
10:04It was just missing his face all that's been with his beers got me in more trouble
10:10The one time I did spin when he kicked me and I fell he knocked me
10:16I
10:24Just missed with a big overhand right they know it's gonna hurt bad on that lead legs hurt, too
10:45I
10:48Need to use some heavy things here to drive the counter up and say sound then crack her back
10:53Or just kick the leg. She's got to get back on that leg kick because now she's got
10:58Rose thinking
11:02Switch that target
11:08Surprise can say so there she is as a switch really switch stances
11:15Legs
11:18She's capable of fighting south, but I don't I've not I've not seen her do it for super long stanzas
11:23Oh, she may not feel like she's got a defense deal with the striking aggression of fine
11:37Fresh
11:39I
11:41Said I wish I would say by the shop you let her do it. You've got five minutes
11:47You got five minutes
11:49That's cool. Don't you listen to me?
11:53Do not walk backwards. Okay, this is everything is all nothing
12:09Two minutes
12:25Saturday French warrior Benoit Sandini looks to come up large on home turf against outspoken
12:32Brazilian Dynamo, and I don't wait Connell plus a crucial middleweight clashes
12:36Macedon above offices fellow hopeful Brendan Allen. It's UFC fight night from Paris, France Saturday special start time
12:443 p.m. Eastern
12:47Around 3 here we go
12:49Say sound needs to come out strong here. You heard it from a corner. Yes, he did. He told her you got five minutes
12:56Are you gonna let her have it?
13:06Oh
13:36I
14:06Don't know
14:36Conceição
14:42Spinning attack
14:52Here against the fence
15:06Damage
15:13She's not moving the same way
15:27They're over two and a half rounds
15:37I
15:44Saw lands that little blood coming through the nose can say so
15:57Because every time she enters can say stop just throws she pops out of fate
16:03She can count a very effective
16:07And if she had a head kick as well
16:14Trying so hard to read these punches
16:18Mix in some kicks to the body and then bring it upstairs. I
16:22Think can say so feels like she can take the heaviest punches that I don't have to give
16:36The first 20 seconds of this round she let the dance and that's about
17:06There
17:36Oh
17:56It's a fun way to get the night started
18:03She's got the moves DC
18:06She's got a lot of confidence
18:09Let's take a look at Alexa dinner, I mean beautiful elbow right on the break here
18:15the takedowns in this fight
18:17We thought would be coming from can say so but primarily
18:19Dinara was able to get can say so to the ground and just the aggression in the striking. I
18:25Don't know how many she ended up landing but Alexa diner the pressure
18:29The aggression the volume everything was in her corner
18:33Big right hand, I mean beautifully put I don't know how you could get a better shot than that to be honest with you
18:39Can say so incredibly tough incredibly tough
18:44138 significant strikes landed for Alexa dinara in our first fight of the night
18:5078 for Rose can say so let's send it to our octagon announcer. Just a Bernard to make it official

19:19Great smile from Alexa, then are as she was the slight favorite coming in and she
19:26Absolutely dominated this fight. She is now one nine in a row and
19:33Certainly looks like she has the potential to maybe be fighting in the UFC next day. She's a much better
