If Imavov is no longer with MMA Factory, where did he train for this fight?

Dolidze vs. Imavov
Nassourdine Imavov, DEC
I'm pretty surprised to see how divided everybody is on this. I think Imavov is clearly the better fighter and the standup isn't even close. He's blazingly fast on the counter and whips out head-kicks like he does low kicks. Plus, Imavov is really good at varying the rhythm of his entry and keeping his opponents guessing - which is the nail in the coffin for an opponent in Dolidze who's defensively unaware to begin with. Imavov absolutely styles on Dolidze. Wouldn't be surprised if he buckles him up top with a head-kick and finishes him off, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Moicano vs. Dober
Renato Moicano, DEC
This is tricky. Moicano has been out forever, and Dober's boxing is ultra-refined on the front foot. With that said though, he just doesn't have the bodily frame to hang in a technical scrap with bigger guys, and Moicano is very good at turning every fight into a long-range fight that sees 1-2-3s and low kicks. This should be fun, but unless Moicano leaves his chin hanging out or doesn't circle away from body shots as he should, he should take this fight handily.

Brown vs. Salikhov
Randy Brown, DEC
Salikhov isn't on that level anymore. Brown will Jon Jones his way right into a 30-27.

Araujo vs. Silva
Natália Silva, DEC
Another good fight. Years ago, Araujo was a beast who had legitimate title potential, but she's a shell of herself now. Showcase spot for Silva; I'm stoked to see how she does in the title picture, because she'll be in those talks after this. Incredibly well-rounded and astute southpaw striker. She's going to wreck most of the top 5 if she can hold up here.

Brown vs. Salikhov
Randy Brown, DEC
If Salikhov was even only two years younger he'd be the pick here, Brown looked very mid against Turman last time out

Araujo vs. Silva
Natália Silva, TKO, R3
Love juiced odd props will have some sprinkles on this one

Khizriev vs. Muradov
Makhmud Muradov, TKO, R2
Size will play a part in the wrestling/grappling here imo, time for a that 0 to goooo

Johnson vs. Maksum
Azat Maksum, DEC
Maksum 29-28, surely Johnson can't give up the first two rounds again and then go for it in the final round??

Gorimbo vs. Rodriguez
Pete Rodriguez, TKO, R1
Pete the punisher Rodriguez more fitting

Bilder vs. Lee

Wow Blake last time out showed us his true levels, Korean Tiger ftw

Hard start for Imavov, small cage + heavy pressure expected the first 1.5 rounds, then Roman will fade as Imavov improves and dictates the pace on a more exhausted Romand due to heavy grappling and clinch attempts. I previously said 4-1 for Imavov but he may even give R2 to Roman so maybe a 3-2, either its a UN DEC or a late sub in 4 or 5. 

Imavov sub  4 and 5 is definitly worth a sprinkle 

This weeks Lock: Imavov ML

Main Parlay: Imavov - Maksum for like +135

Single bet Maksum DEC for like +305 

Parlay 2:  Imavov - Maksum adding Mccann/belbita over 2.5 for +215

Hail Mary: Imavov - Maksum -  Belbita - Blider /Lee over 1.5 - Khizriev over 1.5 - Moicano/Dober STart R2 for +2541

@gliese58i 
He trained at Atch Acadamy, had  Thomas Loubersanes as coach for grappling,  Rodrig Alamos for feet-kickboxing and  Maxime François for wrestling who Atch recently beat in signing from MMA FActory. Though I can't seem to find how long he trained here, from the beginning of his trainingcamp or later.

Bilder vs. Lee
Jeong Yeong Lee, DEC
This fight is coin flip. Neither one of these guys is very good, but Lee is the more technical, better striker. Bilder's path to victory would be to hold Lee against the cage or take him down, but I don't think his wrestling is good enough to do that consistently. Lee takes a 29-28 UD

Stoliarenko vs. Carolina
Julija Stoliarenko, SUB, R1
Stoliarenko's striking has improved with each fight, but she's still kind of a one trick pony who loves the armbar. If Luana can keep this fight standing and survive early she has a very good chance of winning this fight. Stoliarenko looked really big and strong in her debut at flyweight though and I think she's going to dictate where this fight goes and get the finish. Don't bet on this one.

Mederos vs. Quiñones
Landon Quiñones, TKO, R3
This fight has potential to be FOTN. Siding with Quinoñes because he impressed me in his short notice debut against Haqparast. Meredos looked good on the Contender Series as well, but Quinoñes' experience on TUF and against Haqparast gives him the edge for me. Mederos starts off strong, but Quinoñes works the legs, compromising Mederos' movement, and possibly finding the finish late. Strap in for a standup war here!

Petersen vs. Pogues
Thomas Petersen, DEC
Pogues has beat nothing but cans and barely beats them. He lost pretty handily when he had a step up in competition in his last fight. I'm not sure how good Peterson really is, but he looked good enough in his Contender Series fight to make me pretty confident taking him here.

I don’t understand the confidence people are having in Gorimbo, dude has the IQ of a pigeon. Had a 10” reach advantage vs. Fletcher and shot for takedowns the entire fight until he found himself in a guillotine. Never risk your money on dodo birds

@modestman while I do agree, it would be smart for him to grapple here since Pete’s wrestling/grappling is untested at the ufc level

I keep flipping back and forth between Themba and Rodriguez. I started with Rodriguez then saw how much of a favorite Themba was and it scared me into changing my pick. I think now I'm just gonna say **** it and go with Rodriguez. Neither guy is very good, but Rodriguez is more exciting to watch.
