@MongolianMurderer 
How have you deemed Peterson ******? He's yet to make his debut. He has a 100% finish rate at 8-1 with a 5-0 amateur career with his only loss coming to Waldo Cortes-Acosta who's nearing the top 15. I'm not calling him a world beater but I wouldn't call him ******. yet

Edit: He had some decisions as an amateur

I also don't think they'd cut InnerG because he's a replacement fighter in this bout, especially if it's close like you predict.

Acosta also had 0 clue how to grapple in that fight, go watch it. 

Dude is grabbing a naked headlock when Peterson already had 2 hands wrapped around his torso... literally the 1st thing they teach elementary kids in wrestling not to do is reach back for the head to defend.

Peterson ended up gassing by R2 and couldn't control the fight, def some Tom Nolan vibes but Heavyweight is **** and Pogues is sewer water.

I'm not gonna act like I ever watch film from other promotions but I'd assume a lot of fighters have cardio issues earlier in their careers. Part of my point is can't we be a little more optimistic about debutants, at least wait until their first fight to start trashing em

I mean case and point, Tom Nolan everybody was hyping dude up to get STARCHED by Motta 😂

Calling out a fraud before he/she reveals themself to the public is a huge part of mma predictions.

+ people are overlooking that Pogues has actually wrestled most of his life, so if he can keep it on the feet than the fight might actually be interesting.

I'm just saying everybody thought Parker Porter was going to get fried against Braxton Miller.

I'm getting the same vibes with Peterson against Pogues, instead Pogues turns this into a boring sparring match and barely wins a DEC because Peterson gasses 1 or 2 mins. into R2.

No way ppl are really making Stoliarenko a favorite because she pulled a crazy upset against McCann who was 110% overachieving at that point in her career.

Do people forget what Dread did to Petrovic or Lupita Godinez, 
this gets past R1 its gonna be all Dread.

@CrimsonChinGuru 
To be honest the upset wasn't crazy at all. A grappler from the division above comes down in weight and submits the girl who can't stop a takedown for her life and doesn't have very good grappling overall, makes sense to me. Speaking of takedowns, if I look at the stat page for Carolina she doesn't seem to be very good at defending them either. Maybe that's why she's the underdog?

Lmaoooooo okay so a 76% Takedown defense with who's she fought is bad...
*** do ya'll be saying/debating sometimes... 
Loopy Godinez literally went 2 for 15, Petrovic 2 for 6 for takedowns.

and it was crazy when she submitted Molly because the Ufc was pushing McCann hard IN THE CO-MAIN IN THE UK,
 and last time Stoliarenko was at the weight she fainted... it was suppose to be a gimme fight for McCann.

Of course hind sight is 20/20 and the win looks less impressive now knowing for a fact Molly is incapable of improving her grappling.

@CrimsonChinGuru 
I don't really go off stat pages, I just tossed that out there because I assumed Vegas might consider them. If you wanna talk stats and factor in quality of competition then:

To my knowledge Stoliarenko had made BW 15 times in her professional career, wining the Invicta belt at that division and  only fainting once. She also fought at catchweight 3x. Two of those times were her fault, and they both occured within the first 5 fights of her career. She also had a single bout at featherweight. Therefore, she has a track record of making weight the overwhelming majority of the time. Bad weight cuts happen sometimes, it's part of the sport

Despite Stoliarenko only having a 30% takedown accuracy she has taken down 4/7 of her opponents, (she didn't take down Alexis Davis but tbh she's 10x better fighter and grappler than any other fighter Stoliarenko or Carolina has ever fought). Her having taken down so many opponents despite her not very effective takedowns suggests that she's at the very least relentless with them. Luana defending so many takedowns yet being taken down by 5/8 of her opponent suggests that maybe she's vulnerable to that sort of grappling pressure. Also  not sure of how well McCann grapples offensively or who Petrovic even is and they both got Carolina down

McCann vs. Belbiţă

This feels crazy as a brit going against a British fighter but too many factors. To think WMMA was enough reason, Molly can't implement any sort of takedowns/ wresting she just doesn't do it so this will just be a point fest and ill take the underdog everyday in them fights

pretty good fight but i feel like dolidze’s standup is very overrated. lets go imavov

Moicano vs. Dober
Renato Moicano, DEC
brain says dober finds the glass chin of moicano gut says moicano finds a way to get it done. it’s a fight night let’s go with the gut

Brown vs. Salikhov
Randy Brown, TKO, R2
salikhov is very solid but a 8 inch reach advantage is very hard to overcome to say the least. hopefully randy shows some urgency this time around

McCann vs. Belbiţă
Molly McCann, TKO, R2
bottom of the barrel molly vrs someone not even in the barrel

Bilder vs. Lee
Jeong Yeong Lee, DEC
very skeptical of lee but he has enough to get it done (hopefully)

Petersen vs. Pogues
Thomas Petersen, TKO, R3
not going to pretend like petersen is a phenomenal talent but pogues is so bad i’d pick the majority of the division over him. please give me better heavyweight fighters soon dana
