Almost no juice on the last card so taking 3 extra props this week
Predictions: 10 of 15 Winners, 3 Perfect, 615 Points | Tied for 1257th
Not super confident but I think this is good value for a guy who was +150 and now around +170 as a dog. I dont see Herbert winning any other way. Small sprinkle to open the card and get the blood pumping.
2. Patterson SUB (1u @ +215)
Fairly high confidence here. I think Patterson is pretty good just not sure what his ceiling is yet. Gonna probably be taking him by sub a lot with these string bean arms hes got.
3.Dolidze/Vettori to be won by split or majority decision(.25u @+450)
I think Dolidze is gonna make this close. Small sprinkle on a fight that I wanted to get in on somehow. Couldn't talk myself into Dolidze ML because I think he'd have to finish Vettori whos just a brick **** house. Roman will still do damage and I think it will be enough to sway at least one judge either completely in his favor or to a draw. I could also see the opposite happening where Dolidze wins by split because Vettori is just a straight puching bag that won't go down.
4. 5 leg parlay (.5u @+753)
-Hadley ITD
-Shore ITD
-Duncan/Morales DNGTD
-Murphy ML
-Nelson ML
5.Leon Edwards ML (1.5u @ +210)
The guy made me a believer last fight. Nuff said.
‐----------------------------------
Thank you Jon Jones for the free money I will be using to bet on this card. Good luck gents.

Kamaru Usman, DEC
I expect Kamaru is going to go back to what worked in the first two fights. Leon will have his moments but the pressure will be too much.
Gaethje vs. Fiziev
Justin Gaethje, TKO, R2
Tough fight to pick but I'm not willing to buy that Gaethje's chin is gone yet. Fiziev is an amazing prospect but Gaethje is a massive step up in competition and has only lost to the best.
Nelson vs. Barberena
Gunnar Nelson, SUB, R2
This fight is much closer then the line indicates. Gunnar's striking defence has looked suspect in the past and Barberena has the power to put the lights out. I trust Gunnar to get this to the ground and secure a sub but I have a feeling we could be in for an upset KO
Vettori vs. Dolidze
Marvin Vettori, TKO, R3
Vettori is taking a step down in competition and should manage the distance and stuff the takedowns for a relatively easy W. Roman is on a hot streak but he is fighting a championship calibre fighter when he is barely a top 15 guy himself based on skill.. Only hesitation I have is Vettori doesnt always show the best fight iq and if he jumps into Dolidzes guard then he deserves to lose.
Shore vs. Amirkhani
Jack Shore, TKO, R2
Amirkhani has shown he can be dangerous early but this is a fight Jack Shore should win 99% of the time.
Duncan vs. Morales
Chris Duncan, TKO, R1
Not very high on either guy. Both have clear paths to victory and giant gaping holes in their games. Hoping this one ends early and violently.
Patterson vs. Ashmoz
Sam Patterson, DEC
Yanal has power but Sam Patterson seems like the better fighter everywhere.
Mokaev vs. Filho
Muhammad Mokaev, SUB, R3
Mokaev has not looked great in his last two fights and he runs into better competition and 125 he will get exposed. Filho isn't the guy to expose anyone and is worse the Mokaev everywhere. I've heard rumours of Mokaev having a shoulder injury but still going to trust him to dominate Filho for the majority of the fight before locking up a late RNC.
Murphy vs. Santos
Lerone Murphy, TKO, R1
Close fight but I like Murphy to catch the chin early and get the London crowd going
Duncan vs. Todorović
Christian Leroy Duncan, TKO, R1
Another early KO here. Duncan has power in his hands and Dusko has struggled against worse competition and seems to be allergic to moving his head off the center line
Hadley vs. Gordon
Jake Hadley, TKO, R2
Gordon is better then the line indicates but Hadley should pick him apart on the feet.
Herbert vs. Klein
Ľudovít Klein, TKO, R2
I'm clearly picking an exciting card here. Jai Herbert has a suspect chin and Klein has some very underrated striking.

Gifted New Predictions
Predictions: 8 of 14 Winners, 3 Perfect, 475 Points | Tied for 3443rd
I tap Juliana Miller at -450. She has a kosher dim mak and a yappy five point palm exploding heart technique. Miller will likely deny the masterpiece.
Wood vs. Carolina
I select Joanne Wood at -175. She has a formal crotch-hold. Wood won't unseat the adversary. I know it!
Hadley vs. Gordon
I lean towards Jake Hadley at -420. He has a leaden leg kick. Hadley isn't about to maintain the cycle.
Nelson vs. Barberena
I want Gunnar Nelson at -375. He has a resilient palm block. Nelson can incorporate the performance.
Maia vs. O'Neill
I trust Casey O'Neill at -175. She has a xenophobic full guard. O'Neill must avert the canvas.
Herbert vs. Klein
I am going with Ľudovít Klein at -190. He has a laudable counter left. Klein can usurp the victory.
Duncan vs. Todorović
I tap Christian Leroy Duncan at -225. He has a lascivious anaconda and a brilliant armbar. Duncan will blend the opposition.
Murphy vs. Santos
I am obsessed with Lerone Murphy at -180. He has an ironic takedown. Murphy can maintain the cake.
Mokaev vs. Filho
I am with Muhammad Mokaev at -800. He has a distinctive finger lock and a kempt indian deathlock. Mokaev could bother the masterpiece.
Patterson vs. Ashmoz
I embrace Sam Patterson at -280. He has a laudable kimura. Patterson is about to nuzzle the masterpiece. Вот, где собака зарыта!
Shore vs. Amirkhani
I prefer Jack Shore at -500. He has a yucky palm block. Shore ought to scramble the victory.
Vettori vs. Dolidze
I feel disposed to Marvin Vettori at -280. He has an intelligent reverse frankensteiner. Vettori shall outsmart the dark horse.
Gaethje vs. Fiziev
I tap Rafael Fiziev at -230. He has an ironic hiza guruma. Fiziev is about to blast the unthinkable.
Edwards vs. Usman III
I prefer Kamaru Usman at -240. He has a leaden mindset. Usman must quiet the opposition.
