I'll throw an ITD or under/over in a parlay if I'm extremely confident. No big money though, I mainly just parlay the ML

Prediction Comments
Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 540 Points | Tied for 331st
Andrade vs. Blanchfield
Erin Blanchfield, SUB, R2
I understand picking Andrade. I get that Blanchfield wasn't able to take JJ Aldrich down and that Andrade puts a beating on people in the striking. I understand Blanchfield is not Valentina, but with that said, Valentina was able to take Andrade down at will and finish her in the 2nd with elbows from the crucifix. This is something e
Pauga vs. Wright
Zac Pauga, TKO, R2
Jordan Wright is even more round one or bust than Hernandez. Pauga needs to survive one round and he's almost guaranteed to win. The only concern is him coming down a weight class after being put out cold by Usman. I wouldn't ever tell anyone to bet on Jordan Wright, but if you did it would be wise to be round one.
Parisian vs. Pogues
Jamal Pogues, DEC
Terrible featured fight. Not sure what's been going on with Parisian, but I've heard things recently about a heart problem. That is not something you want to have going into a fight. Pogues isn't a finisher really by any stretch, but this is very low-level MMA so anything can happen. I say Pogues just outpoints him on the feet with the boxing. That's if he's learned how to not take 50 leg kicks in one fight.
Knight vs. Prachnio
William Knight, TKO, R1
Knight finally made weight, so maybe he's taking this **** seriously now. In all honesty, I'm not high on either of these guys. Knight has the power and Prachnio has a questionable chin, so that's the only reason I'm taking him.
Miller vs. Hernandez
Jim Miller, TKO, R2
Alex is round one or bust usually. Jim Miller has gotten recent KO's in the 2nd round. He's knocking out dudes in their prime too, albeit not the greatest competition. Taking a beating against Billy Q a month ago at FW, and now moving back up a month later to fight a guy who has power is dangerous. Miller has the better grappling too. Please Jim, just survive the first and you'll find that chin as the fight goes on.
Sadykhov vs. Elder
Nazim Sadykhov, DEC
I see some people picking Elder to outwrestle Nazim. I'm not saying that's completely out of the picture, but Nazim is training out of Longo and Weidman. He's getting better at defending takedowns and I think he has a clear advantage on the feet. Elder is a tough dude though, so certainly not extreme confidence.
Länsberg vs. Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva, SUB, R1
This shouldn't be close. If Bueno Silva loses you might as well send her out of the UFC. Complete setup fight where she should dominate.
Emmers vs. Askhabov
Khusein Askhabov, SUB, R2
I am a little concerned with this fight in a few different regards. The first being that both guys are coming off long layoffs. Askhabov has been out for 3 years and Emmers has been out for a year and a half. When I look at these two, I like Emmers to be better in the striking for sure, but Askhabov better in the wrestling and grappling. Going to a split with Giga in a mostly striking fight is very impressive, but Emmers got swept by Giga and put on his back. That's not a good look against a guy who will be likely heavily pushing the grappling. The other thing I worry about is his fight IQ. He rocked Sabatini on the feet, and was throwing some good gnp, and then tries to submit him with a toe hold (knowing Pat is an excellent grappler) when Pat is tearing his knee apart with a nasty heel hook at the same time. I think Askhabov can win with wrestling/grappling upside.
St. Preux vs. Lins
Philipe Lins, DEC
Lins should outpace OSP. OSP went to a split decision with an extremely over the hill Shogun who then got finished by that fraud Ihor. I think Lins is still motivated whereas OSP isn't. That in my opinion will be the big difference. Lins will be willing to throw more and work for takedowns/control time whereas OSP will just throw kicks to the body.
Fletcher vs. Gorimbo
AJ Fletcher, DEC
I actually don't think Fletcher is that bad. He lost to Semelsberger, who has looked very good recently. He was able to take Semi down and even held his own in the striking. In his fight against Loosa, he didn't look good at all, but Themba isn't impressive in any aspect to me. Fletcher should get the wrestling going here and get the win. If Fletcher can't win this, then he really does suck.
Ronderos vs. Carpenter
Clayton Carpenter, SUB, R2
Ronderos tested positive for Coke and has been on a layoff of nearly 2 years, after looking terrible against Dvorak which granted was on very short notice. I have no idea why he's getting another shot here. Regardless, Clayton should be better everywhere here, especially the grappling, and submit Ronderos or win a decision.
Erin Blanchfield, SUB, R2
I understand picking Andrade. I get that Blanchfield wasn't able to take JJ Aldrich down and that Andrade puts a beating on people in the striking.

I agree with most, besides Hernandez and Emmers. Do you think Hernandez can survive in the later rounds if Jim is ripping low kicks and big lefts, knowing he gasses? Emmers is going to win if he can keep this on the feet. I don't think it'll be that easy to.

Yeah the Jim miller vs Hernandez is a confusing one to me. It can go either way imo I think Hernandez does effort to win 2 out of 3 rounds but this is one that I’ve been changing my mind on all week. All I know is not to bet this fight. With emmers I think he is super underrated an is good everywhere, I’m mainly choosing him over askhabov just because of the 3 year layoff and strength of schedule but then again rumour has it that he has been at tiger Muay Thai for those 3 years, improving so who knows how he looks

I’m just worried with Jim is how does his cardio look in later rounds cause he is 39 and can his chin also survive, honestly hard fight to predict

83%? Not bad. Not bad indeed. I'm impressed you get that with single bets. Well done.
Personally I pick who I think will win, regardless of value or line moves and parlay them together. I could play a 20 leg parlay across 3 different cards and different sports or as small as a 5 leg parlay. Usually I have a number of parlays for each card. I don't play units. I play take out value and out as much into each parlay as I need to get the end value I want.
I don't want to say how much I've been making recently. But it's not a small sum.

Just my views but I think Ashkabov absolutely smokes Emmers.
Also I think Knight wins finish.
My other picks are similar to yours, except for Andrade. But we have talked about that. I see the argument both ways with Andrades injured hand. But still picking Andrade because Blanchfield is going to get smashed on the feet

Yeah i think i’m going to change to knight ko and if I’m honest I’m pretty bias on blanchfield she one of my favourite or favourite female fighter. The fact that she is only 23 and is fighting for a title shot opportunity this early in her career blows my mind. Even if she loses this fight which definitely can happen I still think she will be a future champion. This might sound crazy but I think she can become Champion now

I think Emmers and ashkabov is a super close fight but I’m not betting on it for that exact reason. Ashkabov could be an absolute unknown gem. I appreciate your wisdom like always but I think I’m going to stick with emmers

I agree with you bro. Blanchfield is a future champ 💯
Just needs to improve her striking and striking defence. If she loses this she will learn. If she wins it means she is already championship caliber

Jesicca Andrade over o1,5 and o2,5, Clayton + Silva.
Big parlay with 25 on Nazim, Carpenter, Silva, Andrade.

I don’t want to sound mean but your writing looks like a 5 year old wrote it also Ribeiro got knocked out in the second round, you can’t even get that right. For someone who claims to be the god of tapology you are not very intelligent.
