Fantastic. We have an 8 - 0 Cage Warriors prospect to fade hard.

Figlak has only fought in CW, and faced a lot of cans. Can't wait to place a big bet on Ziam who is an under rated killer. Will take his record outside the UFC against any Cage Warriors jobber any day.

Yes you are wrong. Sorry.

Imavov is likely a future title challenger. Buckley is just not that good.

There is just no path to victory for Vettori. How does everyone not see that?

Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 615 Points   |   Tied for 584th

Gane vs. Tuivasa
Tai Tuivasa, TKO, R5
Does Tai have a chance of winning? 100% but it has to be an early finish. There is no way he is winning a decision and has never been 5 rounds and probably never will. Gane will not be there to be hit and as long as he checks leg kicks he will outlast Tai for a late KO

Whittaker vs. Vettori
Robert Whittaker, DEC
Vettori has no path to victory. I think Whittaker is even the better wrestler. But the Orc of Mordor is tough enough to last to a decision

Di Chirico vs. Kopylov
Roman Kopylov, DEC
Both are head cases but Alessio gets KOd. Kopylov has a nice head kick

Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 615 Points   |   Tied for 584th

Lapilus vs. Taha
Taylor Lapilus, TKO, R2
Lapilus is a beast. And Taha does not have good takedowns so in a 15 minute kickboxing match this will last less than 10 mins

Jourdain vs. Wood
Charles Jourdain, DEC
Really tough one, but I think Jourdain will be bigger and better.

Fairn vs. Perez
Ailin Perez, TKO, R2
Ground game vs no ground game.

Saint-Denis vs. Miranda
Benoit Saint-Denis, TKO, R2
As long as Benoit keeps this standing and does not oblige Miranda on the ground he wins easily

Imavov vs. Buckley
Nassourdine Imavov, TKO, R3
Imavov is the truth. Buckley is a lie.

Ramos vs. Henry
Ricardo Ramos, DEC
Easy win for Ramos as long as he is not stupid. But it's Ramos. So you never know.

Ziam vs. Figlak
Fares Ziam, DEC
Fares is really good. Also has improved grappling. Figlak is from Cage Warriors. End of story.

Stoltzfus vs. Magomedov
Abusupiyan Magomedov, DEC
Dustin does not do great against grapplers and Abu has enough to fit that category. On the feet Abu is just better.

Yes, I watched him of course, I always do my homeworks , thats why all of you are waiting for my on point predictions, and I get the point of Split Decision, the most of UK fighters are overrated as ****. This fight Will go to the distance , Ziam needs to manage the distance and Figlak pressure and takedown Ziam. So this should be a pick em, but not the " CAGE WARRIORS PROSPECT" being a huge fav as the most of the cases🤣

Its a close fight, but the blue print to beat Ziam is there and has been exploided many times.


Don Madge did it very well

I'm curious how Gabriel Miranda comes out. He's got the record and the finishes but what he lacks severely in is competition which is the main reason I think Benoit is gonna steam roll him. But maybe Miranda comes out and looks good, we'll find out very quickly
