Anytime my freind. My advice, follow Bananas picks. He is the best analyst on here. Bar none. I also like another guy called RustyTenakoon. Andrew is excellent too. Gliese and CheddieMac amd Mothsword also have good takes and Ayy knows a lot about regional fighters. Those are who I mainly look at.

But now we also have Mezzor to confirm our picks. Just make sure he has picked the opposite of you and you're good! 👍

Tbh I find a lot of the people on here are actually quite knowledgeable about MMA though some of them have horrible picks and the Dan Hardy syndrome.

Compared to most of these so called Touts and professionally gamblers and MMA analysts on Twitter and YouTube the guys here know their stuff.

They way I look at it is if you are on a channel or site charging for your picks then you are absolutely not winning enough with your betting.

Andrew, me and Bananas drop our picks on here for free because we enjoy it and we make so much money it's for fun. Not as a business.

Andrew dropped a picture recently of the so called "best experts" out there. And their so called Return On Interest and "Unit" profit was hillarious. 5 - 10% per year. If I wanted that I'd just buy stocks. And these are the clowns selling their picks online.

Good example of a "analyst" who just acts like he knows every but actually sucks is some dude on a podcast who was calling Kino****a as perhaps the best prospect to ever come out of Japan. LOL. Be careful who you listen to.

Anybody done any film on Francisco Prado? He’s undefeated with all finishes going against a chinny jamie mullarky but everyone is mostly picking jamie. What am I missing here

I haven't done Prado tape watching yet but I've been meaning to, I think Mullarkey is generally overrated by fans and I agree he seems a bit chinny. Prado is only 20 though and he's coming through the Argentina regional scene so good records and beating guys with good records can be misleading, a lot of Latin America is much lower level in general. He is a bigger underdog at +240 than I expected though.

I do actually have Kleydson, Lockboome, Jenkins, as my standardparlay. I think this is pretty safe and only goes for the win. Plus money is Zubaira. (50$)
On more second parlay I added Alonzo (25$)
A third oney where I switched Alonzo for Emmet. (20$)
Also Parker after Dec, Alonzo either KO, TKO, and Kleydson for my lucky win. I hope this goes good.

I do still like Blake Bilder and have a parlay with him but If I loose that well. But maybe the Adesanya curse will help Bilder to unlock his inner Pereira.

Prado fought at Samurai house.
goes for takedowns and has some power. But I would not risk to much. But he does have value for small money.

Guys from SFH are always suspect to me. I thjnk they get in the ufc because of their manager (has good connections to ufc) more than their skills. However, prado is definitely talented. he has a punchers chance because this will likely be an all out brawl, but I think mullarkey is more experienced than prado st this point

Mullarkey seems to be tough and chinny. So actually I think Prado needs to land his takedown and take away the first round. If that happens and if Mullarkey has to go straight forward with his attacks against Prado who hasn't shows to break easily away it will become very very close..
But hell better a risk on Prado then on Taffa. Or the other HW

Ofc Ive been using Tapology for a while to see other peoples picks and get an understanding of fighters again I don't really know allot of the lesser known fighters so its really handy to get picks like Jack Jenkins and Rodrigues picks id usually wouldn't think of twice

So Jarl thinks Prado is going for takedowns. Against a better wrestler in Mullarkey. Fantastic.

I don't think Bilder is amazing, but I think he can beat probably worst established UFC fighter out of CKB in Shane Young. Loma is going to beat the **** out of Elise Reed. The Shainis vs Jack Jenkins is a tough one for me bc I do think Shainis is good enough to get a few wins in the UFC and is not just a short notice guy, but I have Jenkins for now cause he's got home advantage, and I honestly think the matchup is pretty even. Prado is a guy that'll eventually find his way near the top, but he has to lose to tough veterans like Mullarkey first. Ross shouldn't be in the UFC, and I respect him for what he did in the DWCS fight, but I don't think he was quite ready for the UFC, so I am taking Kleydson. Am I the only one not super impressed with Melsik? Yes, he has good standup, but he hasn't beat the **** out of anyone decent while Culibao basically ruined Choi's career. This may be a very unpopular opinion, but I think Menifield is going to beat Crute. I think Crute is a little overrated, and Menifield seemed to figure it out as of late. Last, I love Randy Brown, but I don't think he beats JDM. It is a great matchup tho

Crute vs. Menifield
Jimmy Crute, SUB, R2
As long as Crute isn't ****y enough to stand and trade with Menifield, he should have this in the bag. He's way more skilled in every department of MMA.

Bilder vs. Young
Shane Young, TKO, R1
Bilder is perhaps the better fighter but Shane will probably be able to turn it around with a few clean shots during brawl moments.

Guys, what do you think about Islam x Volk over 1.5 ?

I think Islam won't rush for the takedowns, and at least the first round will be on the feet for the majority of it. Volk will really need to be cautious with his kicks, especially the calf kick with the left that he usually throws (the one that Ortega caught and after that landed a left hand), cause Islam will for sure capitalize on it.

Honestly, I've been thinking about betting the over 1.5 and the FDGTD. I can't see Volk being able to hang with Maka for 25 minutes without getting submitted... He could find a finish on the feet, but only if Islam tries some wild ****, which I hardly doubt he will. Winning a decision against Islam also seems difficult, cause he has that Dagestan gas tank.

I think the over 1.5 could definitely hit. But I think Makhachev finishes this

O1.5 could be a great play but Islam has a huge chip on his shoulder now after Dana forgot his name at the press conference and is looking to make a statement.

Short guy might tap inside 1.
