I take it that you feel Gomis will lose?

William Gomis is very low volume for a striker, 1st ufc fight lands 32 sig strikes and in his 2nd ufc fight lands 27 sig stikes , and thrown 70 significant strikes in both, Because it so low volume, his fights have been close and dull, it not like his fight are unimous decsion, they’re splits and majority decsion to Francis Marshal and Jarno Errens, 

Haven’t look at his opponent, but if it low volume dull fight, wouldn’t be suprise if they give it to the other guy

Gomis has insane defense. He’s sitting at 81% through two ufc fights. Crazy good footwork & distance management. He’s able to win by picking his opponents apart and avoiding their strikes

Your also correct, just think Gomis need to up the volume, he’s fights are way closer then they should be, just because they’re low offence,

@Rah123 
please be respectful. You don't need to agree with people. But sarcastically saying someone is brilliant, a genius, and you bow down at their feet, is the same as calling them an idiot.

Debate and argue with respect or be suspended.

Gane vs. Spivac
Ciryl Gane, TKO, R3
Athleticism gap. Gane with some bodywork to slow Spivac's gameplan. Also, I think Dana/UFC wants Gane to win in order to bump Aspinall stock in a future matchup.

I think the French fighter gets the SD nod, but it's WMMA so who knows?

Who is this Bogdan fellow?  Is he any good?  Is this similar to the Jiri situation where he can take finish Volkan?

He could maybe finish volkan since volkans chin isn’t as good & Bogdan swings hard, but at the same time his record is crazy padded. Some of his fights legit look like dives. Honestly on tape he isn’t that impressive. He keeps his chin up in the air, gets so lost whenever his opponent jabs, and chases a lot. The best guy he fought in his career slept him very easily as well 

Volkan is definitely washed but there’s a big difference between losing to top 5/champions and facing a regional fighter

I have no opinion on Gomis as I haven't capped him for this fight. For starters I have no idea who his opponent is so I need to look into that as well.

He seems to have an unorthodox style similar to jiri pressing opponents with his hands by his side at times with good power so he is a live dog for sure. But he’s definitely not jiri and I could see this being really close if Bogdan can’t get the finish

Bogdan got rocked by a Slava jab and subsequently got iced, so I don't think he's gonna be able to wear Volkan's power well at all. There's also a chance we see Volkan go ahead with a safer approach, mixing in wrestling and just pot shotting on the feet, which I also don't think Bogdan will be able to deal with either.

We'll see how washed he is come fight night I suppose, but this is a pretty forgiving matchup.
