Muhammad Mokaev, SUB, R1
Mokaev should absolutely dominate in this match up not been impressed with Gordon at all. Gordon's 2 wins in the UFC consist of a fluke injury and another opponent with terrible fight IQ. Can definetly see another club and sub finish here for Mokaev but not like the Cody Durden fight, Mokaev will only need to tap Gordon's chin a little bit and he will be stunned it's that fragile.

Zubaira Tukhugov, DEC
The level of competition here is evident in this fight I believe. Almeida will be non stop looking for the kill shot but Tukhugov has the fight IQ to keep dragging Almeida down and taking it to the mat. Although Tukhugov does get tired I can see all the wrestling tiring out Almeida aswell and decreasing all that dangerous power he has. the most likely outcome for this fight is definetly Tukhugov winning a 29-28 Decision.

Oliviera vs Makhachev
Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 515 Points | Tied for 1324th
This is not a fight where Oliviera has a grappling or submission advantage. He doesn't. What he has is a striking advantage. But does he have enough of a striking advantage to put out Makhachev? That's what he has to do to win. I doubt it happens.
Is Islam going to take Charles down? 100%. And I don't see Oliviera catching Islam with a submission from the bottom. Also Charles is not catching him with a guillotine because Islam wrestles using upper body mainly and trips. Not double/single legs so much. Also he will push Charles against the cage and drain him.
Unless Charles catches him with something Islam is going to cook him in the Abu Dhabi frying pan. Easy win for Islam. You guys don't get how good he is yet. I do because I am pretty smart.
