You’re right though. The props for the O’Malley fight are gonna be the only bettable aspect of that fight IMO.

Ankalaev is gonna school Cutelaba, all that power doesn’t mean anything when you are swinging at air.

i agree, cutelaba's only chance of ever getting ankalaev into a brawl was stolen by kevin mcdonald.

Miocic vs. Cormier III
Daniel Cormier, SUB, R2
Dc talking about his back and his wrestling and how good he feels has me sold on an old school dc wrestle **** followed by a late second round choke. Hoping for stipe after this fight though. hes a bad ass and seems like a good dude!

I don’t think DC can wrestle**** Stipe as Stipe is a good wrestlers and Has good takedown Defence, DC at most will take him down once or twice. And Stipe could also take down DC if u watch the fights again. If DC is afraid or hesitent to box with Stipe he loss already

interesting a guy who's never fought a top 15 guy, and still isn't on this card gets a PPV co-main. Disappointing, Dana must like the tek69 look or something

Easiest path to a title shot in the ufc is based on social media followers. Ufc is becoming a ******* joke. O'Malley is a ******* clown. Hope he gets his face broken soon but Vera ain't gonna be the one to do it.

@tepid55 I'm going to join your ufc bashing cult soon.

My actual voice is fairly similar to his, except a little higher and much less teriffying

dos Santos vs. Rozenstruik
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
If Junior didn't got his ass kick standing by Curtis than I might pick him but because of that u have to pick Rozenstuck because Junior done. Junoir also can't relable wresle him with his last takedown being Stipe over 5 years ago and Rozenstruck is stong and gonna touch withering Junior chin

Dodson vs. Dvalishvili
John Dodson, DEC
Merab is a good fighter and Dodson is fading and im picking Dodson because you never see Dodson held down while fighting and Merab will have troble and Dodson is the supiror stricker

Miller vs. Pichel
Jim Miller, SUB, R1
Never picking agest Miller. Close fight suprising Miller acctuly younger but has more miles on him, Both kick Roosevelt ass, Miller did it more impresivily, Think Miller gonna sub him

Herrig vs. Jandiroba
Felice Herrig, DEC
Close fight picking Herrig because +220 is a crime, Janderoba hasn't beaten anyone of worth and Herrig has the UFC experince, Jandiroba should be favourte because she on the Up while Herrig is on the down
