Lol @ people arguing over me "predicting" Bermudez. The thread title is BOLD PREDICTIONS. Not ******' typical stale realistic predictions. Do I think Bermudez is ever going to be a champ in UFC? No. Is it a bold prediction that could possibly happen based on his ranking at the moment? Yeah. ******s.

you don't see why whom you yourself describe as a "poor man's Chad Mendes" couldn't make a run at the title? Even the name brand Chad made two, and didn't come close to cinching it. 

Rewatch the rematch with the fight muted. Mendes won 2,3,4. Downvote me, call me crazy, do whatever you feel the need to. He won that fight.

I don't see the case for Mendes winning round 3, he was pretty handily outstruck in that round. Round 2 maybe but it was also close enough to arguably be a 10-10.

I can see Jones but I have the feeling that Aldo will lose this year.
