Fighter vs. Writer: UFC 297 Reaction with Alan Jouban Talking Sean Strickland vs. Dricus du Plessis Scores, The Problems Plaguing Women’s Bantamweight
The Fighter vs. The Writer returns as we react to the fallout from UFC 297 with Alan Jouban joining MMA Fighting senior reporter Damon Martin on the latest episode.
We’ll discuss the main event fight where Dricus du Plessis dethroned Sean Strickland in a razor-close split decision in the main event. The scorecards were close but did the judges get it right?
Plus, how should the judges be informed about accidental fouls like the clash of heads that actually caused the gruesome cut suffered by Strickland midway through the fight?
We’ll also talk about Raquel Pennington winning the vacant women’s bantamweight title and the bigger problems facing that division in 2024 and beyond. A few years ago, the women’s bantamweight division was a marquee weight class but with Amanda Nunes and Ronda Rousey gone, the stars have disappeared and it doesn’t look like there are any prospects on the rise.
We’ll also discuss some possible fights for UFC 300 and how we need to handle our expectations for that historic card.
All that and more on the latest episode of The Fighter vs. The Writer!
