Last Opponents
Morgan Charriere is coming home to Paris looking to bounce back after getting absolutely starched by Melquizael Costa in December. That head kick knockout in just 74 seconds was brutal, and now The Last Pirate needs to prove that loss was a fluke. Before that disaster, he was on fire with back to back knockouts, including that sick third round finish of Nate Landwehr in Nashville. Felipe Lima is stepping up from bantamweight where he's been grinding, most recently getting outworked by Payton Talbott in a decision loss. But don't sleep on Jungle Boy.
- Charriere seeks redemption after brutal 74 second knockout loss
- Lima makes featherweight debut hunting top 15 breakthrough
- French crowd could fuel Last Pirate's comeback story
If Charriere doesn't finish this early with his power, Lima's grappling pressure could take over in rounds two and three.
He's got slick submissions, locking up a rear naked choke on Muhammad Naimov and outpointing Miles Johns before that. This is a classic striker versus grappler battle. Charriere loves to bang at distance and has legit power in his hands, but that Costa knockout exposed some defensive holes. Lima is dangerous anywhere the fight goes, especially if he can drag this to the mat. He attempted 15 takedowns against Talbott, showing he's not afraid to wrestle all night.
The Frenchman needs to keep this standing and make Lima pay for coming forward. The stakes are real for both guys. Charriere can't afford another loss in front of his home crowd at the Accor Arena. Lima is trying to prove he belongs at featherweight and that moving up a weight class will unlock a new level. Fans are wondering if Charriere's chin can hold up after that Costa knockout, and whether Lima's grappling can overcome the size difference.
