Tatiana Suarez, UFC Fight Night: Holloway vs. The Korean Zombie preview

UFC women’s strawweight contender Tatiana Suarez joins Jim Norton and Matt Serra on today’s episode of UFC Unfiltered!

 

Excited with the progress he’s making in jiu-jitsu classes, Jim begins the show by slyly changing his Zoom nickname to “Kimura Daddy” as a play-on to Matt’s “Kimura Savage” nickname. By the time Matt notices, it hilariously triggers Matt into a rant about why a jiu-jitsu newbie like Jim is off base for calling himself that even as a joke.

 

The guys then take a look at Saturday’s UFC Fight Night card in Singapore, where they talk about Max Holloway’s featherweight main event against The Korean Zombie as well as fights from the undercard.

 

When Tatiana Suarez hops on the show, the unbeaten women’s strawweight lists her takeaways from Zhang Weili’s dominant title defense over Amanda Lemos at UFC 292 and how she thinks she’d matchup against the 115-pound champion in a title fight if given the opportunity to fight her. However, with the possibility that Weili’s next title defense could take place against fellow Chinese countrywoman Yan Xiaonan, Suarez then goes through a list of other women’s strawweights that she wouldn’t mind fighting to continue the momentum she’s built in 2023 since returning from nearly a four-year hiatus earlier this year.
