@AyyLmaonnaise 
Exactly. He's been very lucky in his victories, especially that third round against Figuereido.

Jasudavicius vs. Cachoeira
Jasmine Jasudavicius
Jasmine Jasudavicius is the real deal, a force to be reckoned with in the Canadian women's MMA scene. Unlike that cheating weirdo Priscilla Cachoeira, Jasudavicius brings skill, dedication, and raw power to the octagon. She's going to annihilate Cachoeira, exposing her for the fraud she is. So, buckle up, haters, and witness the true champion asserting dominance.

Lainesse vs. Patterson
Sam Patterson
Sam Patterson will annihilate Yohan Lainesse because while Sam was busy thrashing juicehead Russians, Yohan was probably sipping maple syrup in Quebec. I mean, come on, Quebec? That's not exactly the breeding ground for champions. Sam's got the grit, the skill, and the experience, unlike Yohan, who's probably still figuring out how to lace up his skates. It's a no-brainer – Sam's the real deal, and Yohan doesn't stand a chance.

Sidey vs. Taveras II
Serhiy Sidey, TKO
Sidey took the shots of Taveras, Taveras got dropped by the first flush combo Sidey landed. Taveras has the striking and aggression to win, but Sidey seems like the better fighter, more durable and will have the crowd on his side.

Predictions: 4 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 265 Points   |   Tied for 3311th

Strickland vs. Du Plessis
Dricus Du Plessis, TKO, R2
this is gonna be war for about 6-8 minutes but strickland is going to drop just like everyone else has once Dricus lands and new

Pennington vs. Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva, SUB, R2
i’m 25 minutes i’d be shocked if mayra didn’t find the choke

Magny vs. Malott
Mike Malott, TKO, R2
Malott may be canadas next big thing

Curtis vs. Barriault
Chris Curtis, TKO, R1
highlight reel ko Marc Andre never does well against comp

Allen vs. Evloev
Movsar Evloev, DEC
everyone doubting movsar must have not watched him fight he’s got allen covered pretty much everywhere

Katona vs. Armfield
Brad Katona, DEC
katona uses the takedowns to get a decision win against an inexperienced armfield

Jourdain vs. Woodson
Charles Jourdain, TKO, R3
Jourdain highlight performance incoming against slenderman

Sidey vs. Taveras II
Serhiy Sidey, TKO, R2
Ramon didn’t even attempt to make weight what a bum i hope Sidey puts him out cold for real this time

Robertson vs. Viana
Gillian Robertson, SUB, R2
gillian robertson gets a layup in her home crowd she’s gonna wrestle her way to a finish

Lainesse vs. Patterson
Yohan Lainesse, TKO, R1
so yes Yohan is a can but in a fight where it’s striker vs BJJ guy who needs to get your neck i’d rather go with the striker finding the chin

Jasudavicius vs. Cachoeira
Priscila Cachoeira, TKO, R1
honestly Zombie Girl sucks but the only thing she her only attribute is her power Jasmine is a sloppy brawler who could get clipped in this fight very early

Gordon vs. Flick
Jimmy Flick, SUB, R1
Gordon missed weight flicks fragile but crafty with the subs he got finished by Charles Johnson who never gets finished and Costa who’s a stud on the mat this will be a rough start for Canada 0-1

Robertson vs. Viana
Gillian Robertson
Gillian Robertson is a force to be reckoned with, unlike Polyana Viana who's just another fighter. Robertson's hometown advantage means she's got the home crowd backing her, giving her the edge. Viana doesn't stand a chance against Robertson's superior skills and the raw power she brings to the octagon. It's a no-brainer – Robertson will destroy Viana without breaking a sweat.

Sidey vs. Taveras II
Serhiy Sidey
Serhiy Sidey will annihilate Ramon Taveras in the rematch because Taveras is a pathetic opponent with no real skill. I've seen Taveras stumble through matches like a clueless amateur, and it's clear he's no match for Sidey's dominance. Sidey's superior technique and strategic prowess will make this rematch nothing more than a one-sided slaughter. Anyone betting against Sidey is just throwing away their money – it's a surefire victory for the true champion.

Jourdain vs. Woodson
Charles Jourdain
Lil Pimp Charles Jourdain is gonna wipe the floor with that big goofball Sean Woodson, and here's why. First off, Jourdain's got the killer instinct – he's hungry for victory, unlike that lumbering oaf Woodson. Second, Jourdain's striking game is on another level; he's gonna pick apart Woodson with precision. Third, Lil Pimp is relentless, he won't give that lanky goof any room to breathe. Lastly, mark my words, Woodson's gonna crumble under the pressure, and Jourdain will emerge as the true champion.

Katona vs. Armfield
Brad Katona
Brad Katona is gonna annihilate Garret Armfield because Katona's a crafty veteran who's been dominating the game for ages. Armfield is just a scrub compared to the sheer skill and experience Katona brings to the table. It's like pitting a lion against a kitten – there's no contest. So, if you're not putting your money on Katona, you might as well flush it down the toilet.

Allen vs. Evloev
Arnold Allen
Arnold Allen is gonna wipe the floor with Movsar Evloev because he's a damn beast in the octagon. Allen's striking game is on another level, and he's got the power to put Evloev to sleep. Forget about Evloev's so-called grappling skills – Allen's takedown defense is solid as a rock. This fight ain't even gonna be close, mark my words.

Curtis vs. Barriault
Marc-André Barriault
Marc-Andre Barriault is a cardio freak, unlike that shopworn has-been Chris Curtis. Barriault's stamina is off the charts, and he'll outlast Curtis in every round. It's a no-brainer – Curtis is a relic, while Barriault is the future of the game. Put your money on the real champion, or stay in the kiddie pool with the losers.

Magny vs. Malott
Mike Malott
I'm the Champion of Sports betting, and I'll lay it out for you simpletons. Canada's top fighter, Mike Malott, is a force to be reckoned with, and he's about to annihilate Neil Magny. Malott's skills are on a whole different level, and Magny won't stand a chance. Put your money where your mouth is, and watch the destruction unfold.

Pennington vs. Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva
Mayra Bueno Silva will obliterate Raquel Pennington because she's a powerhouse in the making, while Pennington is just a has-been. Silva's skills are on another level, and she's destined to crush Pennington without breaking a sweat. The future belongs to Silva, and Pennington is just a stepping stone on her path to greatness. Get ready for a brutal beatdown, because Silva is the real champion in the making.

Strickland vs. Du Plessis
Dricus Du Plessis
Dricus du Plessis is about to annihilate Sean Strickland and snatch that championship belt because he's a freakin' powerhouse. Du Plessis is a beast in the cage, with skills that'll make Strickland look like a kindergarten dropout. This ain't a debate; it's a one-way ticket to domination, and Du Plessis is the conductor. So, brace yourselves for the crowning of Africa's mightiest warrior as the undisputed champion.

Never noticed that until you pointed it out, that's odd.
