    These PFLator hype jobs. I remember when it was Ilima Lei McFarlane who "beats Shev & is the best women's FW" but where is she now? Irrelevant bc she started taking Ls as soon as she fought somebody decent. Liz Carmouche the champ already knows wasup bc Shev took her to school & i'll bet that Liz schools her. Let's hope she fights somebody decent soon, she's been crushing cans & drinking the cool-aid. However, since she holds more value promotionally compared to her fighting ability, they're matching her accordingly.

      Dakota is already showing potential her striking is great and her grappling improving so I think she needs to be given a chance.
      Also pfls women's flyweight are lacking in compeition at the moment so it's not her fault the Compeition is poor
      Also in terms of pfl carving the easiest possible route for her well she's getting a test in her next fight no doubt as jena bishop is a submission specialist and gave santos (a former ufc title.contendor) a tough fight so bishop is by no means gonna be an easy fight for her

Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation.

The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967736246190 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger.

      @@pokemonovice9758 VAL doesn't like to be hit or can take shots very well. GRASSO is limited to just her boxing, and her hand speed isn't that fast. This new generation of female strikers are very good and durable, especially if they come from a MUAY THAI background. DAKOTA is strong and can strike, she is going to be too much for VAL or GRASSO in the stand up department. DAKOTA is 5'7, VAL and GRASSO both 5'5.

      We need a few more questions answered first. Dakota is definitely skilled, but she’s not fighting anybody good yet. If she beats Santos, then we can compare how she would do with Shevchenko or Grasso.

      DAKOTA isn't one of those weak skinny ladies, she is also very strong.

      @@asianconnection7701 Strength is one thing, but you have to be able to grapple. Santos is strong too, but she’s very good at grappling. Dakota hasn’t shown that much grappling ability yet, and she hasn’t fought anybody that could really test her there. She looks incredible so far, but it is very important to look at the quality of opponents. I believe she could beat Santos based on what we have seen of her, but it’s easy to be fooled when the caliber of opponents are leagues apart.
