The previously undefeated Surging UFC Star Payton Talbott is set to face the 14-1 Brazilian Feliperima. However, many believe that Payton Talbot has the baggage and stigma of defeat against Raoni Barcelos.
But Talbot doesn’t let him get losses or online chatter about his losses. The outlook for the young fighter was when asked about his online fanbase heading towards him after his first defeat was surprisingly reasonable and easy.
“I mean, people are just whimsical, especially online. Everyone’s memories are like goldfish. It’s been three weeks since it happened.
MMA has always been a sport that has allowed losses, and Payton Talbott has achieved this fact. Thankfully, the young man can lose and fighter at least on the surface.
Payton Talbot faces yet another challenge in the form of young talents of his fellow Lima.
Feliperima is a tough fight for Payton, as the Brazilian is a talented, intelligent fighter, and likely not an impressive and grappling art finisher. So this could be another long night for Talbot, or this could be the revival of Talbot’s highlight reel. Either way, this fight is a must-see as it launches UFC 317.
