I think Oliveira beats Dustin and Justin.  Islam beats Dariush and Islam beats Oliveira and becomes champ.

Personally I think tai tuivasa v sakai even odds is a steal 

I feel tai wins for sure, he's on a roll and has got his **** together training wise recently

i agree with you about tai being on a roll and i'm a fan. but i'm little hesitant sakai is pretty big even for heavyweight. If he can do what Junior dos Santos, Ivanov and Spivak did its not going to go well. Im all for tai but thats why im reserved

After seeing rozenstruik flatline Sakai I have no doubts tai can put him to sleep. Tai has a really good striking arsenal

On here it says only a 1 inch difference but it's probably different like most other fighters on tapology, that's all sakai has in this fight is a slight size advantage , tuivasa should still win here

1 inch in height 2 in reach. Nothing super significant

Rozenstuck putting you to sleep doesn't really count or at the very minimum they're no shame in doing so,  I think Rozenstuck the 2nd hardest hitter in the UFC right now, It close to calling someone a ***** for getting slept by Francis, Tai is powerful striker, But nothing crazy for heavyweight standard, Tai could put Sakai to sleep because it heavyweight, They all hit hard, But I'm not confident as Sakai has shown to have a chin in his other fights

I honesly favour Sakai in the matchup tbh, He look really good agaist Overeem, I think Overeem is the most techical heavyweight ever, And Saki boxed him up for 2-3 round before gassing compare to Tai who is a bit of a can crusher IMO, He got merked by everyone and anyone good he fought so far in his career

Do Bronx being disrespected! He's the Champ!!

Exactly, I think Olivera has the edge here. Most dangerous bjj in ufc for my money and his Muay Thai has gotten beyond clean its dangerous and still very underrated

Dustin’s resume is impressive, against the best of the best. Maybe it’s just me but once I see a fighter quit from strikes I lost some faith. Dustin’s whole career has led to this point. Kind of reminds me of glover Jan in the storyline aspect. Right time right place for Olivera  but no shot against veteran of Poiriers caliber.

Charles wins by sub somewhere between the 2-3rd IMO. RNC. 

People pimp out nearly getting iced by R1 Chandler like it means something, or is somehow indicative of how he'll fair against Poirier. Reality check: R1 Chandler is easily the most dangerous fighter in the division and possibly the world.

I can’t over look the loss to pettis by choke he was able to reverse every position pulled a simple guillotine and olivera tapped super quick, Dustin made him quit with a rib injury, the loss to Holloway by injury then just quitting ? Dustin lit max up. The felder loss tapping to one strike, the ref didn’t see the tap and let him get a few more.  Chandler took a dec loss to gaethje. Dustin knocked out Justin.

I'm going do bronx the champ as his recent opponents have been much better than dustins, beating conor McGregor twice in a row a millionaire who clearly doesn't care as much anymore does not impress me, no disrespect to Dustin it's just the champ fought better guys recently compared to Dustin imo
