Okay so here's what's got people buzzing about this one. Marcio "Ticoto" Barbosa walked into the UFC and immediately put Dennis Buzukja to sleep in just 80 seconds with a punch to the head. That's a statement right there. The UFC even put out a whole feature on him telling fans to keep an eye on this guy, and when the UFC hypes someone like that, you listen. Now here's the wild part about this fight.
- Barbosa's 80-second UFC debut KO has everyone paying attention
- Kuse steps in on just seven days notice for UFC debut
- Danny Silva out, short notice chaos shakes up the featherweight bout
If Barbosa finds his range early in round one, this fight could end just as fast as his debut did.
Ryan "Third Street Savage" Kuse is stepping in on just seven days notice after Danny Silva got pulled from the card for undisclosed reasons. Seven days. That's basically no camp, no real game planning, just show up and fight. Kuse is making his UFC debut under the craziest circumstances possible, and the MMA community is already talking about how tough that situation is. Barbosa is coming in with serious momentum and that scary finishing instinct.
The guy doesn't mess around once he smells blood. Kuse on the other hand is walking into the Golden 1 Center in Sacramento with basically no time to prepare specifically for Ticoto's style, which makes this a really interesting puzzle to watch unfold. The short notice angle is the thing everyone keeps coming back to. Can Kuse's toughness and natural ability overcome the massive preparation disadvantage? That's the question Sacramento is going to answer.
