UFC 205 Carmouche vs Chookagian

UFC 205 is upon us this weekend live from Madison Square Garden. It is a major event with three major titles on the line. Not only that, but it is the first in the State of New York, the last to legalize MMA.

This event will truly be a milestone for MMA on its biggest stage. Much like UFC 200, the card is loaded with 13 great fights.

Up first is a women’s Bantamweight bout between Liz Carmouche vs Katlyn Chookagian
Carmouche has been up and down since entering the UFC back in February of 2013, a one round title fight loss to Ronda Rousey at UFC 157. Since then, she has gone 2-2 with wins over Jessica Andrade and Lauren Murphy, but losses to Miesha Tate and Alexis Davis.

There is a bit of a layoff and rust Carmouche will have to deal with as she hasn’t fought since April 2015. I do fully expect her to knock off the ring rust in this one however, with a first round submission over Chookagian.

Prediction – Carmouche by knockout in the 1rst.
