Dustin Jacoby, DEC
I just like what I'm seeing from Jacoby. Maxim's tendency of starting slow is something I'm not fond of. On the other hand, Dustin's cardio can pose a problem late. It's a toss up.

Ciryl Gane, SUB, R2
I have been hugely on the Gane hype train since his debut, he really does look like the next big thing, he is so well rounded for a heavyweight. There is no doubt Rozenstruik has granite in his gloves, he seems to put people to sleep so easily, he KO'd crowder by literally touching his face. However in his last fight he experienced the hardest granite in the ufc, Ngannou absolute obliterated him, i thought Rozenstruik was dead at one point.. quite simply Gane does not have that power, no one in the UFC does but i do fancy Gane to get this done, if he takes this to the floor i think he will finish Rozenstruik, we have seen Rozenstruik on the ground before with Overeem and that was going to be a very one sided decision until he caught him in the last minute. We have never seen Gane get rocked however we have never seen him against someone with an extreme amount of power like Rozenstruik, so if this stays on the feet it could be a very even fight and i wouldn't be at all surprised if Rozenstruik KO's him however i think Gane will be aware of this and know that if this fight hits the mat he has a huge advantage over Rozenstruik, i just think Gane is much more well rounded and has more tools in his arsenal to either finish Rozenstruik on the mat or take the decision victory.
Krylov vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, TKO, R2
Krylov has only been to decision once in 27 wins, that really isn't a bad statistic. With 15 of those wins being submissions i can see him trying to get this to the ground, he employed the same tactic against a fatigued Johnny Walker and dominated him on the ground, Ankalaev is a hell of a lot better than Walker. People will be questioning Ankalaev submission defense after the loss to Paul Craig however before that moment he was winning that fight with ease. Craig is no slouch so it was a mere slip up. Ankalaev has very good takedown defense and should he be able to use that well on Saturday night and keep this fight standing up i see him putting a beating on Krylov. He has really looked like a contender so far after making Cutelaba look stupid twice and kicking Lungiambula's face into next year. I do fancy Ankalaev in this but he needs to keep the fight standing.
De La Rosa vs. Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva, SUB, R2
Bueno Silva should get this done.
Munhoz vs. Rivera II
Jimmie Rivera, DEC
The first fight between these 2 was a banger, great fight from start to finish, these are 2 very high level fighters. I fancy Rivera to make it 2-0 in the saga, he's had a few losses as of late however those losses being to Moraes, Sterling and Yan really is no shame. I think personally Munhoz should of got the decision against Edgar but is riding a 2 fight loss due to that, this is a tough fight to call but i do slightly edge towards Rivera as his boxing is so crisp. Munhoz is tough as **** though standing and banging with Garbrandt was one of the best 30 seconds i've ever seen. Avoid at all costs in a parlay.
Caceres vs. Croom
Kevin Croom, SUB, R2
Croom has the mentality of finish the fight or be finished, i love that mentality as it brings for a very entertaining fight. He shocked everyone when he came in and tapped Roosevelt Roberts, this will be his second fight in the UFC. Alex Caceres is one of those fighters that sometimes looks very good, but also sometimes looks terrible. He is technically very good thats for sure but lets himself down so often. This will be Caceres 27th UFC fight, same as with the Oliveira fight thats a ton of experience, he has been rear naked choked 5 times and against someone who loves a rear naked choke in Croom i don't see it ending well. I initially had Caceres to win this but the nearer the event is getting the more i fancy Croom, i just think he kill or be killed attitude will see them ending up in a position where Croom can lock in a rear naked choke and put Caceres to sleep.
Hernandez vs. Moisés
Alexander Hernandez, TKO, R1
I'm a big fan of Alex Hernandez, there is no shame in picking up a couple of losses early in his career to Cerrone and Dober. His return against Gruetzemacher was an annihilation, he looked brilliant for as long as it lasted. Moises is no doubt a threat on the ground with his submissions but Hernandez has never been subbed, saying that Moises has never been finished so i do see this one going the distance. Michael Johnson beat the piss out of Moises in round 1 on the feet, it was only when he got him down that the fight changed. Hernandez should be wise enough to keep this one on the feet as i think he definitely has the speed and overall striking advantage. If Moises can get this to the ground then he could easily pick up the win but i see Hernandez having a good enough take down defense and the big advantage on the feet to pick up the win here.
Hill vs. Yoder II
Angela Hill, DEC
Tea break during this fight.
Oliveira vs. Kuramagomedov
Alex Oliveira, DEC
Another coin flip for me, part of me wants to back the young undefeated russian however if i'm honest i know nothing about this guy, he clearly has a few submissions up his sleeve and is still undefeated and being from russia seems to be an advantage, however i have seen this exact scenario before where a young undefeated fighter comes into the ufc for their debut against an experienced UFC opponent and they get schooled. Oliveira is never going to be a contender, but he is a good name to beat, he's been in the octagon with some very good competition and this will be his 20th UFC fight, thats tons of experience. This fight reminds me of Roman Bogatov vs Leonardo Santos, young undefeated russian prospect who got absolutely schooled by Santos, i just have a feeling the same thing could happen here, if i'm wrong and Kuramagomedov comes in and beats the breaks off Oliveira then we have someone to keep an eye on, however on this occasion i'm going to back the experience of Oliveira to get the job done.
Davis vs. Mazo
Sabina Mazo, DEC
I just really don't have any interest in female mma no matter how hard i try. Sorry to any ladies reading this.
Lawrence vs. Cachero
Ronnie Lawrence, DEC
Ronnie Lawrence should be able to get the win in his debut against someone who realistically is a regional fighter, 1-3 in the ufc is not the best and if he loses this he will most probably be cut and return to the regional scene where he belongs. Ronnie Lawrence looked okay in his DWCS fight, not future champion or even contender material but should have enough weapons in his arsenal to defeat and send Cachero out the ufc.
Jacoby vs. Grishin
Dustin Jacoby, DEC
This is a real close fight to call, not one i would touch in a parlay. I lean towards Jacoby, i like his pressure, volume and leg kicks, i can see these being too much for Grishin to handle, however i favour Grishin the longer this fight goes on. Jacoby has a fast pace which could see him fade as the fight goes on and look for the clinch where Grishin is comfortable. This really is a coin flip and not one i would comfortably back what so ever, i will ever so slightly lean with Jacoby.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R2
Rozenstruik is going to put an end to the Gane Hype Train, and prove he is a HW contender, finishing him in the second round. Rozenstruik sufferd a hard loss to Francis who has a chance of grabbing the HW strap this summer, Surinamese favorite fighter is coming for blood

Cowboys back looking to avenge his last loss, he will put brazil on his back and take down Russia.

Jairzinho Rozenstruik, DEC
big ceiling for gane, but i find it hard to overlook the body of work rozenstruik has already achieved in his short tenure.
Krylov vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, DEC
hard not to feel swept up in ankalaev's hype, but krylov seems to have slowed things down lately so i'll say he doesn't get finished.
De La Rosa vs. Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva, SUB, R2
what is with these random-ass co-co-main's? i don't get it. either way, i think this is a bad matchup for montana, silva figures to have the ground advantage and montana's striking has never been anything to write home about. question is does silva sub her? sure i'll say so.
Munhoz vs. Rivera II
Jimmie Rivera, DEC
probably gonna be a striking battle with rivera trying to dart in/out and munhoz trying to counter. i was gonna pick pedro, but i think i convinced myself that he'll be low volume so i'll hedge instead and hope to be wrong.
Caceres vs. Croom
Kevin Croom, DEC
caceres might just be able to dance outside, but i'm more expecting croom to be able to work his way inside.
Hernandez vs. Moisés
Alexander Hernandez, DEC
all of moises' losses have come via decision and hernandez has won 5/6 decisions he has gone to so i'll say his volume/aggression is enough to take rounds.
Hill vs. Yoder II
Angela Hill, TKO, R3
gonna be a lot of cagework i think, it's seemingly yoder's only hope, but still think hill can make striking time count more.
Davis vs. Mazo
Sabina Mazo, DEC
there's something to be said about davis' level of competition in her losses, but i still think mazo's volume should keep her ahead of scorecards as long as she stays off her back.
Lawrence vs. Cachero
Ronnie Lawrence, TKO, R2
sounds like lawrence is gonna drag this guy around and idk enough about either to say different.
Jacoby vs. Grishin
Maxim Grishin, TKO, R2
the weight miss has me skeptical, but grishin is the more proven mma fighter so i'll stick with that i guess.
