Prediction Comments

Predictions: 4 of 6 Winners, 0 Perfect, 245 Points   |   Tied for 4919th

Poirier vs. Chandler
Dustin Poirier, DEC
Even tho Dustin gets hit a lot. He's still one of the better defensive strikers Chandler will have fought. If chandler tries to fight DP the way he fought Gaycheese, it's not nearly as close a fight. DP has shown he's comfortable fighting backwards against Mcgregor, Max, etc and constantly cracking them clean clean check hooks which slow them down and uses that momentum shift well. Chandler a tough bastard so I doubt he gets finished in a 3 rounder.

Reyes vs. Spann
Dominick Reyes
Ryan spann a power puncher not much depth in his game. Reyes is only on 3 fight losing streak to literary the past 3 LHW champs. Only looked "bad" against Jan, even then that was more so cause of Jan's power than a talent difference. Actually looked good against Jiri. And the lon lay off probably does Reyes some good. The Reyes Anthony Smith phase has began

Ulberg vs. Negumereanu
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R2
Question isn't who is the better kickboxer or even fighter. It's will Ulberg's gas tank hold up in this fight. Nicolae aint good he's just tough. UFC slowly building up the most handsome LHW in MMA history

No one asked and no one cares but I will never post on Tap again if Weili doesn't obliterate Carla in round 1. 

If Weili messes this up somehow and this is my last post then I just want to say if you genuinely believed Charles would beat Islam then you should ban yourself. You're an easy mark and you should be embarrassed.

I don't know about round 1 but Zhang should definitely beat the **** out of Carla before the judges are able to finish up their little scorecards

Agreed. I can't believe that so many people thought Charles Oliviera had even a chance. Now watch how everyone jumps off the bandwagon, especially after Dariush beats him.

I agree. It should be 4-0 unless someone really messes up.

I am also really surprised at how many people are picking Pereira over Adesanya. Oh well.... better odds for me

I was wrong....😂
Many were hyped up for Ion ..
for his match-up against Ryan spann..
So I also got hyped...and put a very small doubles...with him..
But....When I saw Ryan spann....first time....I repeat first time ....inside the octagon.....I said to myself....That ...I have done a mistake....in picking Ion....😊
I feel..Weigh in n faceoffs matter a lot....more than the...
 odds...

It is quite possible...that all those who picked Charles...was just a pick of theirs...n not a bet.....
Charles had very less chance against...Islam
We should not forget that...
Tapology is a fantasy game platform...also

I will never jump off the Olivera bandwagon, people who stop being a fan of fighters for losing aren't really fan of fighters, they’re just glory chasers, I’ve been a fan of Charles Olivera even back of the days when he was a featherweight who misses weight and lost a lot of his fights

Silvana ML should be easy.

Reyes KO, Spann is a ******* spastic with a glass jaw. 1st round he's getting sparked.

Ngl I think Poirier/Chandler should go over 1.5 rounds. High stakes with Chandler hinting at using his wrestling. I reckon Dustin finishes in the third
