It's ok dude. It happens. There is too much hype on Blanchfield that blinds everyone to her flaws. 

I have to say even I made a terrible call on Emmers. I forgot he has sub zero fight IQ.

He cost me a lot of money today that thankfully Algeo, Loughlan, Arce, Chidi, Aslan and Buckley and Fiorot more than made up for.

But if Blanchfield is as good as she's rumoured to be, then she can learn from this loss, shes only 24

Emmer's honestly had some questionable defense there. Circle on the backfoot arms outstretched? Sucks because he seems like the far more skilled fighter.

Seeing Erin having success using the fence in the fight against Santos somehow made me think she could do the same against Fiorot starting the 3rd, but I was completely wrong. Fiorot bullied her.

Manon is a very good fighter, but I still think Val and Grasso are the best in this division. We would probably get a better fight in Manon x Grasso, cause Val is a counter striker too, so that would probably be a bit boring.

Erin kept trying during the fight, but Fiorot strength and condition was too much for her. I think Manon's fighting style is going to be a problem for Grasso because her management of the long and short distance and that her takedown defense is legitimate. Losses are tough lessons but Blanchfield can learn a lot from tonight and mainly work better on her striking combinations. Personally, I think that she didn't have the best insight from her corner either, they never gave her clear ideas on how to close the distance or counterattack the French fighter.
