As for Carano/Kobold, I believe the obvious thing here is that Carano has much better standup and knows it. Kelly will try to take her down from the clinch as I have NEVER seen her shoot from the outside. However, I believe Carano will be harder to takedown than Kelly expects. If Carano can remain aggressive in her clinch, I believe she wins here as well. The thing Kobold has for her is if she CAN get it to the ground, she has some brutal GnP. Bottom line: If Carano comes in in shape, she pulls this out despite what appears to be some trouble early.
And as for ME, look for me to be in action at least one more time before the end of the year. I will certainly post something when it is all set!
Great news! Any opponents in mind that you would like to face?

Takahashi put up more of a fight then most thought. Real good analysis of Carano's fight.

Yeah, Takahashi was tough. I was surprised. The Carano fight went as I expected. And I actually think Kelly could have won if she would've used her hips on the takedown attempts instead of just trying to pull Gina in with her arms.
At any rate, with the demise of the company I fight for, I may have to rescind my statement of fighting before the end of the year. We are trying, but the playing field has changed considerably all of a sudden. I will keep everyone posted!

That really sucks Shayna, hopefully the downfall of Elite will lead to a better company. Wish you the best and look forward to seeing you fight again soon.
