I don't mind these fighter as good dogs, As they are still dangerous, Just when they're favorites, **** can go south quick, for example I had Terrance Mckinney 1st round finish in his first two fight at good odds as that the only way he wins,

I have this feeling Khamzat will run through him, even though Burns is by far the highest level of competition Khamzat has faced up to this point.

I think the difference between the guys ranked 1-5 at 135/145/155 are all so razor thin that you have to give any of them a legit chance in a 5 round fight.
I've already thrown my little sprinkle on a Zombie KO because that's how it'll happen if it does.

But if some how Yan beat Sterling, Yan better return the favour and give Sterling a rematch as it 1-1 and it be a dope trilogy, But Yan wouldn't because everyone know Yan is terrified of the boogeyman that is Sterling

Petr Yan, TKO, R4
I'm sure Aljo has improved his since the last fight, especially since he no longer has to deal with back pain, but Yan is just too good, a level above everyone else. He has no weaknesses, he's incredible everywhere. I think Aljo will win the first round and possibly the second before Yan beats him up in the 3rd and finishes him in the 4th
Burns vs. Chimaev
Khamzat Chimaev, TKO, R1
This fight will be a great demonstration of why Khamzat is a future 2 division undefeated champion. Not only is Khamzat better everywhere, but he is also larger. Easy win for Borz
Dern vs. Torres
Tecia Torres, DEC
Dern won't be anything close to a contender unless she moves up in weight, she's skilled but way too slow for 115. And Torres has beaten everyone except the absolute best, which Dern is not.
Pichel vs. Madsen
Vinc Pichel, DEC
Madsen looked straight up BAD against Guida, which you can't be doing if you want to ever be a ranked fighter. Pichel I feel would have been in the top 15 a while ago if he was more active. Semi competitive but clear w for Vinc.
Garry vs. Weeks
Darian Weeks, TKO, R1
Weeks, albeit facing poor competition previous to his entry to the UFC looked very good, good striking and impressive wrestling. I don't think his last fight really matters since he took it on 4 days notice and fought against someone who loves being in sweaty grindy fights, something he wasn't prepared for. Now with a full camp I see Darian knocking Garry out in the first round, since we all saw Garry's major defensive issues in his last fight, nearly getting finished by someone who has no business being in the UFC.
Rozenstruik vs. Tybura
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
I see a repeat of Bigi x Sakai, Tybura just isn't in the elite bracket of 265 that Rozenstruik is, and I don't see him being able to just hold Jair on the ground for 3 rounds.
Ladd vs. Pennington
Raquel Pennington, DEC
Ladd is already washed up.
Gall vs. Malott
Mike Malott, SUB, R1
In hindsight we will see how big of a mismatch this was, Malott is extremely skilled and could already be ranked if he entered the UFC earlier. Gall will have no answer for Malott's superior striking and grappling.
Oleinik vs. Vanderaa
Jared Vanderaa, TKO, R2
Aleksei is way too old and slow to be competing at this point, and Vanderaa is relatively quick compared to most heavyweights. Unless Aleksei falls on Vanderaa somehow I see no path to victory for him. Boring asf descision W for Vanderaa
Hernandez vs. Fremd
Anthony Hernandez, DEC
Haven't seen much of Fremd but his wins that I've seen have been against poor competition. Fluffy by decision based on who they've fought.
Rodriguez vs. Hansen
Piera Rodriguez, DEC
Rodriguez is a future title challenger, enough said.
Arce vs. Santos
Julio Arce, TKO, R2
Who tf is Daniel santos?
