What happened... we are getting the one suspension behind the other without any real reason... but on the other hand the troll-eys they are ****posting all day long... and even using my username without even talking to them... !? Why you don't keep it real in both ends... !?

Plus... 
Why someone who almost never make picks... is allowed to post in the threads... !?

This is all so sad Izzy is faker than **** nothing else comes close to that clown, sure he can kickbox and after roiding up he can wrestle a bit.
I will now drink my coffee and have a good long laugh at you braindead anime nerd virgins peace out.

The loss to Montalvo is troubling, I really like Montalvo but a grappler he is not. I assume BD is a better kickboxer than Montalvo lol.

Everyone picks Izzy but weve seen alot of upset this year (whitaker vs Plessis “talking everyone about whitaker fighting izzy for a 3rd then Shavchenko vs Grasso “while everyone talking about Shev vs Nunes again. Izzy has dominated everyone and the one we least expect to pull it off the win. Everyone saying Dricus will beat Izzy but i feel like Sean will somehow pull this off. AND i feel the UFC would love to have him as a champion now (even tho he wont last long)

Izzy is a top tier kickboxer. He knows how to deal with a jab & forward pressure.

And for those who think Strickland is gonna grapple - he's basically abandoned that since returning from the motorcycle accident

Strickland didn't grapple against Pereira, so I don't know how anyone can trust him to against Izzy

I hadn't noticed until just now that I'm watching the UFC weigh in show that Tyson Pedro has a lazy eye. Unless he's pulling a Max Holloway and it's a one time thing due to brain damage.

Blood Diamond also willingly initiated the clinch with Cosce despite rocking him. Radtke might have a short UFC stint, but this is definitely the last stop in Blood Diamond's one.

Noone has any ******* idea what to call him or why not to just go with his real, easy to spell, name.

Are there any diehard izzy fans still defending him touching up on his dog's wee wee still? Or the fact that he's a shill for China while they're committing a modern day holocaust? Crazy that he has any fans at all but that's mainstream dummys for ya

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 9 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 580 Points   |   Tied for 1453rd

Adesanya vs. Strickland
Israel Adesanya, TKO, R3
Desanya by brutal rnd 3 dog molestation

Tuivasa vs. Volkov
Tai Tuivasa, TKO, R3
This all depends on if volkov gets complacent on riding out a decision, I hope he learned from the Lewis fight but I'll go w the underdog just in case. Big fan of both

Kape vs. dos Santos
Manel Kape, TKO, R1
Flying "furry cartoon ****" ko

Tafa vs. Lane
Justin Tafa, TKO, R1
Even though Justin has some questionable losses I think that power will pull through

Ulberg vs. Jung
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
PED power

Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 640 Points   |   Tied for 533rd

Underdog who MIGHT win:
Chepe Mariscal (But how good is a win over Trevor Peek really?)
Anton Turkaj (2 straight losses, 1 to the great Jailton, and 1 to Vitor who really dont know where he stands)
Tai Tuivasa (Heavyweights are unpredictable. NOBODY expected him to KO Derrick)

Underdogs who DEFINITELY wont win:
Felipe (Debut fighters coming in as Replacements on a PPV almost never win ex: JDM vs bald head Bo vs Val)
Da Un Jung (UFC playing favoritism they will definitely will look to brand Carlos with this layup)

People still talking about the Lewis and volkov fight 😂 it was 5 years ago if you’re banking on that for a tai win you’re burning your money
