Prediction Comments
Yusuff vs. Barboza
Edson Barboza, TKO, R3
Barboza is still the same fighter he was when he entered the ufc, about a century ago: probably one of the best stand up fighters in the UFC ever, but 2 rounds and a half of cardio, allergic to pressure, to (great) wrestlers and while he's insanely tough, not a great chin . It's enough to win most of his fights, to become the ufc highlight machine and even staying a solid top 10 at lighweight and featherweight for years now, but he just can't win against elite competition. The question is wether Yusuff is elite or not, and we're about to find out !
Pereira vs. Barriault
Marc-André Barriault, DEC
Unpredictible fight, at this weight class who knows what Pereira will look like ? His weight was a huge winning factor at WW. Will his cardio be better or (even) worse ? His chin ? Plus Barriault is not a joke either.

Prediction Comments
Martinez vs. Yanez
Jonathan Martinez, DEC
God I'm really rooting for a boxing clinic by Yanez in this bout but that DEC win Martinez got vs. Said Nurmagomedov is just too good to ignore. No I'm not trying to use MMA Math here but even though Martinez lost by K.O. to Grant and Yanez won a Split-DEC, I just don't see the competition matching up between the two and believe Martinez is gonna cruise to a DEC win on his end by sticking on the outside w/ his kickboxing and picking at Yanez's legs throughout the bout.
Rodriguez vs. Saaiman
Cameron Saaiman, DEC
Def gotta side w/ Saaiman in this fight. The kid is GOOD, man. Future ranked contender for sure. Although Rodriguez's win against Rosas Jr. was good, it didn't come without it's close calls in the 1st RD.
Alekseeva vs. Dixon
Melissa Dixon, DEC
Honestly don't know or really care. I see some late 1st RD finishes on their record but WMMA is so unpredictable man. Def not betting on this one.
Yoder vs. Ducote
Emily Ducote, DEC
*** are these records??? Yoder lost to Frey? Jesus. Def a DEC here.
Elkins vs. Brown
Darren Elkins, DEC
Def a DEC win or late comeback from Darren. But Darren's got that DAWG in em' and has more experience as well as having fought better competition over the years. Granted he's lost to said competition but potato potatoe.
Cháirez vs. Lacerda
Edgar Cháirez, SUB
Gotta side with this pick once again especially w/ how it went last time around.
