In a year that already has proved to be massive for the UFC, with one major card after another, UFC 205 on Nov. 12 at Madison Square Garden in New York looks to be the biggest and most important of them all. In honor of such a marquee event, ESPN.com is providing dedicated previews to all 13 bouts on the card, breaking down whats at stake and projecting who will win, along with quotes and statistics for each fighter.Womens bantamweights: Liz Carmouche (10-5) vs. Katlyn Chookagian (8-0)Odds as of Nov. 2: Carmouche +165; Chookagian -190Whats at stake?Carmouche ready to end unwanted layoffAfter her last fight in April 2015, Carmouche asked the UFC for a short break to get some personal affairs in order. The problem was, once she was ready to start up again, the promotion evidently wasnt on the same page.Feels like Ive been asking to fight for a full year now, Carmouche said. I honestly dont know what happened. I thought maybe Id made someone mad and got blacklisted. The only thing I can imagine is discussions for the purchase of the UFC put things on hold -- but if booking me to a huge card in New York was their way of saying, Sorry this took so long, Ill take it.Carmouche, 32, did participate in an Eddie Bravo Invitational grappling match in September, which was broadcast on UFC Fight Pass. Even with the time off, Carmouche wouldnt be far away from title contention if she were to get past the undefeated Chookagian.I believe I built momentum competing in jiu-jitsu, showcasing all the skill sets I have, Carmouche said. Winning this fight just progresses that momentum and gets me back in title contention.Chookagian: I think I represent the newer generationWhen UFC 205 was first announced, the 27-year-old Chookagian immediately pulled up the UFCs female roster and liked what she saw.The promotion is not flush with female talent based out of New York. Chookagian, a Philadelphia native who now fights out of New Jersey, figured she had a shot to make the card.Im pretty lucky to be on this card, considering this is only my second UFC fight, Chookagian said. But I also had a feeling Id be on the card. Im pretty much the only girl signed in either division who is from the East Coast, New York area. I was holding on to that, thinking maybe it would get me on here.In addition to her locale, Chookagian is also one of the better prospects in female MMA. She started taekwondo when she was 4, and got into karate a few years later. By the time she was 15, she had already won an amateur Golden Gloves boxing tournament. She trains her striking under standup coach Mark Henry, who will be in the corners of Eddie Alvarez and Frankie Edgar on Nov. 12.Currently, I think the womens side of the sport is where the men were a few years ago, Chookagian said. I feel like most of the women are only dominant in one area of MMA. Thats why youve seen, in the bantamweight division, there has been a different champion every fight lately. A lot of that has to do with matchups.I think I represent the newer generation. I have equal experience in different areas of fighting.Statistical comparisonCarmouche: 10-5 record (2-3 in UFC); past three fights have gone to decision (1-2 record)Carmouche: 11 takedowns landed in past four fightsChookagian: 8-0 record (1-0 in UFC); five of eight wins by decisionChookagian: Defended three of four takedowns in UFC debut (UD3 over Lauren Murphy)BreakdownThis bout sets up as a potential passing of the torch for contender status within the division -- unless its just too early for Chookagian.Carmouche will battle a size disadvantage, which could make things especially difficult as grappling is her clearest path to victory. Chookagian is a mobile, high-paced striker with a jab that is pretty efficient at maintaining the distance she wants.What Carmouche lacks in size at this weight, she makes up for in strength. Chookagian also doesnt carry a lot of knockout power, which means theres a solid chance Carmouche will get a full 15 minutes to work her takedowns. If you look over Carmouches record, her toughest foes mostly have been bigger grapplers. Chookagian is definitely bigger, but her grappling is less proven.PREDICTION: Chookagian by decision. china jerseys wholesale . -- Mike Smith never saw his first NHL goal go in. wholesale china nfl jerseys . -- Ryan Blaney provided more evidence that Penske Racings No. http://www.cheapchinanfljerseyswholesale.com/ .

Wieters had asked for $8.75 million and the Orioles had offered $6. INCHEON, South Korea -- Brett Coletta shot his second straight 5-under 67 on Friday to take a one-stroke lead over fellow Australian Cameron Davis in the Asia-Pacific Amateur Championship.Im just delighted, Coletta said. I just focused, hit some great shots and the score showed. It was actually the complete opposite wind to yesterday and it helped to look at that before we teed off as it was a bit blustery.The 20-year-old Coletta eagled the par-5 15th and had five birdies and two bogeys at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, the site of the Presidents Cup matches last year.To be completely honest I didnt feel I hit it as good today striking-wise, but its how good your bad shots are, not how good your good shots are, Coletta said. There were definitely some shots out there that didnt suit my eye, so I was quite nervous over those shots. Its the biggest event Ive ever played. For a first-timer thats really nerve-wracking.The winner Sunday will receive a spot in the Masters in the event conducted by the Asia Pacific Golf Confederation, the Masters and The R&A.Obviously its a high reward at stake, Coletta said. This weekend, some decisions might change depending on the situation. Like a couple of times today there were some risk-reward shots and I turned it down and said Im in a good position. Id probably say no again. ... I dont think Ive surprised myself. I know Im up to this level if Im pplaying well.dddddddddddd Its just a matter of doing it.The 21-year-old Davis, the first-round leader after a 65, birdied the last two holes for a 70.It was good to salvage a decent score, Davis said. To finish a couple under par and still be near the top is good.Davis was second behind Chinas Jin Cheng last year in Hong Kong in the rain-shortened tournament. Two weeks ago in Mexico, Davis led Australia to victory in the World Amateur Team Championship and won the individual title.Japans Junya Kameshiro was third at 7 under after a 69.Curtis Luck, the Australian who wrapped up a Masters invitation in August with his U.S. Amateur victory, shot a 69 to match Thailands K.K. Limbhasut (68) and Japans Yuwa Kosaihira (72) at 5 under.Limbhasut is taking off the University of Californias season to prepare to apply to the business school. He played alongside Davis and Jin.Jin was even par after his second 72. Hes a freshman at the University of Southern California,Chinas Guan Tianlang, the 2012 winner in Thailand at age 14, was 15 over after rounds of 82 and 77. Now 17, he had three straight double bogeys in the first round and two more in the second.The winner also will get a spot in the British Amateur and a place in final stage of British Open qualifying.
