Leon Edwards
I buy into the fact that elevation played a huge role in Leon's performance last time. Also Usman hopefully won't get away with cheating this time, his hand and the cage are a match made in heaven.
Gaethje vs. Fiziev
Justin Gaethje, TKO, R3
I think Fiziev is going to get knocked out in a potential FOTY. I can't see you nearly losing to Bobby Green and then seeing you beat Gaethje on the feet.
Nelson vs. Barberena
Gunnar Nelson, SUB, R2
Bam Bam doesn't have that grappling, RDA might be an ex-champion but he's getting up in age and completely dominated that fight taking no damage.
Maia vs. O'Neill
Jennifer Maia, DEC
Did anyone who picked Casey actually watch her strike with Modaferri? lol.
Vettori vs. Dolidze
Marvin Vettori, DEC
ORK NEVER SUBMIT, NEVER BEEN SUBMITTED. MORDOR IS BACK ON THE RISE!
Shore vs. Amirkhani
Makwan Amirkhani, SUB, R1
I'm smoking something... yeah I can see this happening. The nonsense pick of the night.
Duncan vs. Morales
Chris Duncan, DEC
Duncan is tough, young, and active. Three things that based on Morales last 2 performances are missing in his game.
Patterson vs. Ashmoz
Sam Patterson, SUB, R2
I mean... the dudes a LW Volkov.
Mokaev vs. Filho
Muhammad Mokaev, DEC
Decision, Jafel is a tough SOB.
Murphy vs. Santos
Lerone Murphy, DEC
Santos is a great prospect but Murphy is going to get it done in the UK.
Duncan vs. Todorović
Christian Leroy Duncan, TKO, R1
PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE! DUSKO CRUMBLES UNDER POWER AND PRESSURE!
Hadley vs. Gordon
Jake Hadley, SUB, R1
Gordon, I appreciate the effort against Mokaev but the chin is still the Gordon chin.
Wood vs. Carolina
Joanne Wood, DEC
Wood lost to the champ, a contender who nearly beat valentina, and was robbed. She's got this.
Herbert vs. Klein
Jai Herbert, TKO, R2
Jai is taller, lankier, and hopefully does not get chinned.
Hardy vs. Miller
Juliana Miller, SUB, R2
Hardy, ya wifes in civillian mode now. She ain't built for this no more.

Predictions: 7 of 15 Winners, 3 Perfect, 480 Points | Tied for 3398th
Kamaru Usman, DEC
Here it is, what you all have been waiting for. My picks. Cannot even depend on Mezzors picks anymore. He got a pick correct last card. Anyway Usman isn't going to make the same mistake twice. He will get it down to the ground and keep it there
Gaethje vs. Fiziev
Rafael Fiziev, DEC
Gaethje is on the decline imo and his leg kick game should be handled by Fiziev
Nelson vs. Barberena
Gunnar Nelson, SUB, R2
If Gunnar can get it down he should get the sub
Maia vs. O'Neill
Jennifer Maia, DEC
I don't trust O'Niel. And Maia has proven herself. If Casey wins this then I will be on the hype train.
Vettori vs. Dolidze
Roman Dolidze, DEC
Close one

Makwan Amirkhani, SUB, R1
Shore is not as good as everyone thinks he is and Amirkhani is very dangerous until he gasses. There is a chance that Shore outlasts him but that's the way he wins imo. I think Amirkhani is both the better wrestler and grappler. I wish he had better cardio.
Duncan vs. Morales
Omar Morales, DEC
Duncan has to prove himself. Gets rocked every fight. If he can't win this one he doesn't belong. Morales isn't bad and has lost only to good fighters
Patterson vs. Ashmoz
Sam Patterson, DEC
I dunno about this one. Sam has bad striking defence and gets away with it because of his chin but he should win this. Ashmoz is no joke.
Mokaev vs. Filho
Muhammad Mokaev, DEC
Mokaev is not as good as he thinks he is. But even though Filho is good Mokaev should just out grapple him.
Murphy vs. Santos
Lerone Murphy, TKO, R1
Murphy is good.
Duncan vs. Todorović
Christian Leroy Duncan, TKO, R1
Duncan is good.
Hadley vs. Gordon
Jake Hadley, TKO, R2
2 x Men in Black rejects. Gordon is chinny AF but this is equal on the ground. That said Hadley should piece him up.
Wood vs. Carolina
Joanne Wood, DEC
Unless it's a robbery Joanne should win.
Herbert vs. Klein
Jai Herbert, DEC
Wow... tough tough call. If Herbert can avoid the left side strikes and not get chinned he can win this one. Klein has not yet won me over.
Hardy vs. Miller
Juliana Miller, TKO, R2
The UFC officially hates Dan Hardy

I just think Dolidze is more dangerous and definitely the far superior grappler. Not sure if he gets it to the ground though because Vettori is the better wrestler. As I said, close one
