JunYong Park ‘had PTSD’ in split decision reading vs. Brad Tavares: ‘I thought I won on all the scorecards’

JunYong Park reflects on the split decision reading in his win over Brad Tavares at UFC Fight Night 244.

LAS VEGAS – For just a few seconds, [autotag]JunYong Park[/autotag] thought he found himself on the wrong side of a split decision, again.

“The Iron Turtle” picked up a split decision win over veteran Brad Tavares in the co-main event of Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 244. When the judges’ scorecards were being read, Park (18-6 MMA, 8-3 UFC) who for many had clearly beaten Tavares (20-10 MMA, 15-10 UFC) in two rounds, feared the worst.

“Last time, I obviously lost by split decision and that set me back a little bit – it broke the streak,” Park told MMA Junkie at the UFC Fight Night 244 post-fight news conference. “As they were reading the scores, and they said it was split decision, I slightly had PTSD about the last time I lost by split decision. I was a little worried. But really thinking about it, I thought I won on all the scorecards.”

Park is 5-1 in his past six outings, with the lone loss being a split decision loss to Brazil’s Andre Muniz back in December. Entering UFC Fight Night 244 off a defeat, Park assures that his confidence was not rattled, even though he got rattled in the first few seconds of the fight.

“It wasn’t really a confidence thing,” Park said. “I was just unfocused for the first minute, minute and a half, and I got caught with a 2 and it led to a flash knockdown. There was no damage to it, but that actually kind of helped me because I refocused, and I kept that focus through the rest of the fight.”

UFC Fight Night 244: Brad Tavares vs. Junyong Park odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s UFC Fight Night 244 odds between Brad Tavares vs. Junyong Park, with MMA picks and predictions.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

In a 3-round middleweight bout on the main card, Brad Tavares and Junyon Park meet Saturday at UFC Fight Night 244 — also known as UFC Vegas 98 and UFC on ESPN+ 102 — at the UFC Apex. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s UFC odds around the UFC Night Night 244: Tavares vs. Park odds, and make our expert picks and predictions.

The prelims begin at 4 p.m. ET on ESPN+, and the main card begins at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN+.

Records: Tavares (20-10-0) | Park (17-6-0)

Tavares heads into this bout looking to bounce back from a 3rd-round KO/TKO against Gregory Rodrigues in mid-February, and he is just 1-3 in the past 4 bouts.

The 36-year-old fighter for Team Xtreme Couture has been with the promotion since making his debut at UFC 125 on New Year’s Day 2011. In the past 22 bouts since July 2, 2011, including TUF Finale fights, he has ended up going the distance in 16 of those outings.

Park is looking to rebound after a split-decision setback to Andre Muniz in early December. That halted a 4-fight win streak, including 3 straight submission victories from Oct. 2022 to July 2023.

Tavares holds a slight 1-inch reach advantage, while Park is ahead with a 4.53-to-3.38 significant strikes landed per minute. Park is much more accurate with those strikes at 58.77%, while Tavares checks in at 48.21%. Park is better in the takedown game, too, posting a 1.83 takedown average and 50.0% takedown accuracy percentage, while posting a 1.05 submission average.

UFC Fight Night 244: Tavares vs. Park odds

Provided by BetMGM Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list of UFC odds. Lines last updated at 10:45 a.m. ET.

  • Fight result (2-way line): Tavares +160 (bet $100 to win $160) | Park -190 (bet $190 to win $100)
  • Will the fight go the distance? (Yes -200 | No +150)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

UFC Fight Night 244: Tavares vs. Park picks and predictions

Fight result (2-way line or moneyline)

PARK (-190) is a little on the expensive side, but he isn’t a bad play if you were to include him in part of a multi-leg parlay.

While Tavares (+160) holds a slight lead in reach advantage, that’s about the only area he is ahead. He’ll want to avoid going down to the canvas with Park, or this will be a short outing. He has been involved in 3 submissions in his entire career, with a rear-naked choke loss to Court McGee June 16, 2010 at the TUF 11 Semifinal in his most recent bout via submission.

PARK BY SUBMISSION (+800), for the chance to multiply up by 8 times, is a tremendous value, and you need to make that part of wagers.

Over/Under (O/U)

NO (+150): WILL THE FIGHT GO THE DISTANCE is a great idea.

Park by submission is certainly worth a roll of the dice, and if that happens, both of these wagers go hand in hand.

Yes, Tavares has gone the distance in 16 of his past 22 professional bouts, but he has finished inside the distance in 2 of the past 3 outings.

Brad Tavares initially annoyed with JunYong Park rebooking date, but now just hopes he wants to trade leather

Initially annoyed he didn’t accept an earlier rebooking after his staph infection, Brad Tavares has one way JunYong Park can make amends.

LAS VEGAS – Three months ago, [autotag]Brad Tavares[/autotag] was all set to throw leather with [autotag]JunYong Park[/autotag]. Then he got off the scale and picked up his phone.

The way Tavares recalled it Wednesday, his manager called not long after he made weight for a middleweight fight with Park on July 20. The commission didn’t clear Park because of a staph infection. And while that seems flukey and forgivable, Tavares might be a little bit salty that he and Park only just now are about to fight in their rebooking.

And that, Tavares (20-9 MMA, 15-9 UFC) thinks, is on Park (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) for not being down with an originally offered Aug. 10 rebooking.

“I wanted to keep the fight, obviously,” Tavares said at media day for UFC Fight Night 244, the new home of their fight, which will be the co-main event at the UFC Apex. “I went through an entire training camp preparing for this specific opponent. I don’t want that to go to waste. … Now we’re going to go through a full camp again. I didn’t understand (Park not agreeing to August) but it is what it is, I guess – God’s plan.

“… But obviously I was frustrated with it. I was pretty irritated with it.”

Tavares speculated that Park had something else going on in his life that would’ve made the first offered rebooking a nuisance. But regardless of the reason, annoyance or irritation isn’t likely to help the longtime Hawaiian fighter Saturday.

Park is about a 2-1 favorite at the betting window. He had a four-fight winning streak that included three straight rear-naked choke finishes snapped by a split-call loss to Andre Muniz this past December.

“He’s very well-rounded and puts MMA together,” Tavares said. “I don’t think he’s a specialist or an expert anywhere, and obviously he doesn’t have the kickboxing or boxing accolades, the wrestling or even the jiu-jitsu. But he does put them all together well. He’s a very complete MMA fighter.

“I think his biggest attribute is his toughness, just how tough he is. I’ve watched him in fights where you think, ‘OK, this this guy is done,’ and he pulls it out – very similar to (middleweight champion) Dricus (Du Plessis). But I don’t think he’s nowhere near as dangerous as Dricus.”

At the end of the day, though, maybe Park could be forgiven the whole rebooking date thing with Tavares if he agreed to a standup fight in the co-feature. Tavares fears, though, that Park will want to head to the canvas.

“I would hope (he wants to trade punches), but honestly I think that he’s going to want to go to the ground where he feels like he has his best advantage,” he said. “But if it ends up being a kickboxing (fight), I’ll take that all day.”

UFC Fight Night 244’s JunYong Park reveals doctor called off July bout vs. Brad Tavares: ‘It was kind of wack”

JunYong Park says a “kind of wack” doctor made the call to cancel his July fight vs. Brad Tavares before they were reeboked for Saturday.

LAS VEGAS – [autotag]JunYong Park[/autotag] wishes he could’ve fought Brad Tavares in July as originally scheduled, but he’ll have to settle for UFC Fight Night 244 on Saturday.

The first date between Park (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) and Tavares (20-9 MMA, 15-9 UFC) was canceled when, after both men made weight, the doctor investigated a scratch on the South Korean middleweight’s ear that was determined to be a staph infection.

That decision did not make Park very happy.

“So there was a small scar or small scratch on the back of my ear, and the physician said it was staph infection, so the fight got canceled, unfortunately,” Park told MMA Junkie and other reporters through an interpreter during Wednesday’s UFC Fight Night 244 media day. “It was kind of whack. … I told (Tavares) what happened and I was sorry. We both cut weight, and we were both looking forward to this, and unfortunately, it didn’t happen. Brad was very understanding. Things happen, you know?”

Although Park admits he’s annoyed he has to cut weight for a second time against the same opponent, he is happy he ultimately pleased with the situation, and intends to get the win in the co-main event clash, which takes place at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas (ESPN+).

“I’m a company man and I’ll fight whoever the UFC says,” Park said. “When I got the contract and it said Brad Tavares again, it was just another day at the job. … Nothing really changed for the game plan. It’s the same opponent. I’m the same guy. The only thing that’s changed is we are going to cut weight twice for this fight.”

Junyong Park not medically cleared, UFC on ESPN 60 co-main event vs. Brad Tavares scrapped

There seemed to be good vibes at the UFC on ESPN 60 official weigh-ins after everyone hit their marks.

LAS VEGAS – There seemed to be good vibes at the UFC on ESPN 60 official weigh-ins after everyone hit their marks.

But then things took a turn into #ApexVibes territory when the co-main event, just minutes after it had become official when both fighters made weight, was scrapped.

[autotag]Junyong Park[/autotag] (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) made weight without issues for his middleweight co-main event against [autotag]Brad Tavares[/autotag] (20-9 MMA, 15-9 UFC) about 10 minutes into the two-hour window. After that, he had to go through customary physical checks with the Nevada Athletic Commission, and he didn’t pass.

Tavares made weight a bit later at 185.5, but it proved to be pointless when the commission ruled Park out at UFC on ESPN 60 (ESPN/ESPN+), which takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

That makes the featherweight fight between Seungwoo Choi (11-6 MMA, 4-5 UFC) and Steve Garcia (15-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) the new co-main event.

With 34 combined UFC fights, the bout between Park and Tavares was by far the one between the two most experienced fighters on Saturday’s lineup, which will move forward with 11 bouts and a new start time.

With the change, the UFC on ESPN 60 lineup now includes:

MAIN CARD (ESPN/ESPN+, 8 p.m. ET)

  • Amanda Lemos vs. Virna Jandiroba
  • Seungwoo Choi vs. Steve Garcia
  • Kurt Holobaugh vs. Kaynan Kruschewsky
  • Cody Durden vs. Bruno Silva
  • Bill Algeo vs. Dooho Choi
  • Hyder Amil vs. Jeong Yeong Lee

PRELIMINARY CARD (ESPN2/ESPN+, 5:30 p.m. ET)

  • Cody Gibson vs. Brian Kelleher
  • Dione Barbosa vs. Miranda Maverick
  • Trey Ogden vs. Loik Radzhabov
  • Luana Carolina vs. Lucie Pudilova
  • Thomas Petersen vs. Mohammed Usman

UFC on ESPN 60 weigh-in results: Perfect session in Las Vegas, but one fight scrapped

Check out the official results from the UFC on ESPN 60 official weigh-ins in Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS – The UFC on ESPN 60 official weigh-ins are in the books, and it was a perfect session in “Sin City.”

In the main event, Virna Jandiroba (20-3 MMA, 6-3 UFC) takes on former women’s strawweight title challenger Amanda Lemos (14-3-1 MMA, 8-3 UFC) as they look to get one step closer to a shot at UFC gold. Lemos was the first fighter to the scale in the two-hour window and was 116 pounds. Jandiroba came a minute later and was 115.5 to make the headliner official without any drama.

In the middleweight co-main event, [autotag]Junyong Park[/autotag] (17-6 MMA, 7-3 UFC) and Brad Tavares (20-9 MMA, 15-9 UFC) had no issues, either. Park was 186 and Tavares was a hook under at 185.5. But just minutes after the weigh-ins wrapped up – and minutes after Tavares left the scale – it was announced the fight is canceled because of “a medical issue involving Park.” No further explanation was given, and Park did not seem to have issues when he made weight about 10 minutes into the session.

The weigh-ins took place at the UFC Apex, which also hosts Saturday’s event (ESPN/ESPN+).

The full UFC on ESPN 60 weigh-in results included:

MAIN CARD (ESPN/ESPN+, 10 p.m. ET)
