I hope we don't, if Bo is remotely competitive with Brundage then he's nowhere near what he's been made out to be. I'd like to see MW get back to where it was back when Romero, Jacare, Rockhold, Whittaker, Mousasi, etc. were in the top 10.

@pashaboyer 
I like how good Rakic is at fighting backwards, how defensively responsible he is, and how devastating his leg kicks are. Jiri is very open to be hit hard when he fights chaotically, and if he is tentative he will be outside his comfort zone and fighting Rakic's fight. And tbh, I didn't like the way Jiri looked against Perreira. Not a super confidence pick as Jiri is very dangerous, unpredictable, and good at forcing his kind of fight on people. But, like I said, Rakic is much more comfortable fighting on the back foot than somebody like Reyes or Ozdemir.

What is this I hear? Did Drake bet Perreira? Need to know because I have to look for a cashout if that's the case.

@pashaboyer 
Rakic gonna punish the legs early and keep the pressure with more crisp an clean boxing, he has about 2 rounds to find a finish. Jiri can do whatever he wants, maybe it will work, maybe it wont. But its always the punch you don't see that knocks you out. So they both better watch out.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 2 Perfect, 470 Points   |   Tied for 5620th

Pereira vs. Hill
Alex Pereira, TKO, R2
I think there's a chance Hill catches him, Alex's chin isn't iron, but I think Alex will time him up and sleep him. Skills too high level in comparison to Jamahal.

Zhang vs. Yan
Weili Zhang, SUB, R3
I could be a round or 2 late, but I think Weili will get takedowns easy and eventually submit.

Gaethje vs. Holloway
Justin Gaethje, DEC
I think Justin is just gonna hit and kick too hard. Max is gonna wear the damage but it will impact his ability to bring the damage back. I could see Max winning the last 1-2 rounds, but I think Gaethje gets the Decision win in a war.

Oliveira vs. Tsarukyan
Charles Oliveira, TKO, R2
Not crazy confident in this pick. Arman annoys me because he's so unlikable and pretty boring but he really is good everywhere. I could see him taking Charles down in the 1st and then maybe Charles gets a comeback KO.

Nickal vs. Brundage
Bo Nickal, TKO, R1
I wanted to go submission here but I think Bo might start to fall in love with his hands. To be clear though, I think this will be a ground strikes TKO

Procházka vs. Rakić
Jiří Procházka, TKO, R2
I think Jiri will have a great comeback fight here. Rakic won't be able to match his fighting spirit... if that makes sense lol. Jiri is just different. And I think Rakic might be rusty coming off the long break.

Kattar vs. Sterling
Calvin Kattar, DEC
I am doubting this pick but I think Kattar has good enough grappling to stop Aljo moving up. But Kattar is going to need to match Aljo in the activity on the feet. If he doesn't Aljo will beat him

Holm vs. Harrison
Holly Holm, DEC
Holly has done this once before. I see decision just because of her age.

Yusuff vs. Lopes
Diego Lopes, SUB, R1
I think this will be a wild fight for as long as it lasts. Yusuff could KO Lopes, but I think Lopes will find a slick submission somewhere in a transition.

Turner vs. Moicano
Renato Moicano, SUB, R2
Moicano will probably have to take some shots to get in, but I really see him dominating Turner on the ground. Moicano's control is underrated.

Andrade vs. Rodriguez
Jéssica Andrade, DEC
Rodriguez might be able to piece Andrade from distance, but I think Andrade will be too physical and aggresive.

Green vs. Miller
Jim Miller, DEC
Green might be a different fighter after his last loss. I Think this is a coin flip and if it was the same Bobby Green as before I'd pick him, but I think he might be alot slower now. Miller might be able to mix it up and get the fairytale win.

Figueiredo vs. Garbrandt
Cody Garbrandt, TKO, R1
I should not be picking this. It's way more likely that Figgy KOs Cody in the 1st, but I have a weird feeling. Cody is still crazy fast and explosive, his downfall is just when he gets hit. He could catch Figgy, who is not used to punches from 135ers.

Predictions: 10 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 680 Points   |   Tied for 572nd

Pereira vs. Hill
Alex Pereira, DEC
hedge. hill has always seemed special to me and i truly think his striking can hang here as well as having a ground advantage, but i'd rather pick the other way and be pleasantly surprised.

Zhang vs. Yan
Weili Zhang, DEC
zhang just seems more seasoned and probably has the better ground game to fall back on.

Gaethje vs. Holloway
Justin Gaethje, DEC
maybe max will be the better boxer and have better range over 5 rounds? maybe he can use his bjj? i'm just gonna stick to my gut though and say justin has too much impact on this particular evening.

Oliveira vs. Tsarukyan
Arman Tsarukyan, DEC
i'm not sure arman will be scared of charles on the ground, nor am i should if he should be.

Nickal vs. Brundage
Bo Nickal, SUB, R1
doubt it, but let's just hope cody can make show bo a little more of his potential. he's got a puncher's chance at absolute best.

Procházka vs. Rakić
Jiří Procházka, TKO, R2
failing to see why jiri is a dog here, former champ vs a guy whose best win is thiago santos 3 years ago?

Kattar vs. Sterling
Calvin Kattar, DEC
hedge. calvin has done a good job staying off his back in his ufc tenure and aljo won't have the size advantage he's used to.

Holm vs. Harrison
Holly Holm, DEC
maybe i'm a sucker here, but i'm gonna give it a shot. kayla hasn't looked like anything special when she's been lined up against ufc washout 135'ers at 145+. if holly can manage distance and defend the early td entries, she's gonna star to chew her up standing.

Yusuff vs. Lopes
Diego Lopes, DEC
not sure sodiq will be able to avoid the dogfight that diego brings and doesn't have the grappling necessary to try and stall him out.

Turner vs. Moicano
Renato Moicano, SUB, R2
i'll take a chance here and say moicano's chin can hold up long enough to find an entry to the back. turner skates though so i'm down to be wrong!

Andrade vs. Rodriguez
Jéssica Andrade, DEC
maybe marina can try to make it a technical battle and work the clinch, but i feel like she's on the wrong end of the power equation and she doesn't put forth enough wrestling to tire andrade's arms out.

Green vs. Miller
Bobby Green, DEC
big step back up in competition for jim, not sure his finishing spirit will be enough to track bobby down and keep up with the boxing volume.

Figueiredo vs. Garbrandt
Deiveson Figueiredo, DEC
feeling like cody is gonna get clipped if he insists on another dogfight or just never truly finds his range if he tries to play a cleaner game.

Nickal KO is +165. Seems decent when he's like -1000 on the ML.

@duck - Hill KO round 1? respect the ballsiness 

anyhow we're all obviously hoping for that one for the ages card, some dark horses (if you can call anyone that on this card) but what do you reckon which fight might be an unexpected dud out of these 13? especially when it comes to the men fights?
