Prediction: correct Oliveira   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 2  

cowboy can be inconsistent, but laflare's game is just one-dimensional. i think cowboy can stuff the shots and land some counters. he may not have as much success in the clinch at 170, but he has some power and he definitely has heart.

Prediction: wrong LaFlare   wrong Decision  

I have actually been quite impressed with the consistent improvements in LaFlare's stand up especially and submission defense and overall grappling.Iirc he had problems with for example guys like Andrew Osborne (currently 7 W 10 L if that's the fight i'm picturing) on the ground in the fight before he came to the UFC and some of his fights before that.I think the stand up will be pretty competitive and he mixes the whole game together much better than he used to.This should be an awesome fight,I will likely pick LaFlare.I would go as far as saying I think LaFlare has solid stand up and couple that with the td threat.Alex has improved a ton too.

Prediction: correct Oliveira   wrong Submission   wrong Round 1  

Not very impressed with LaFlare's UFC wins. I think Oliveira is the far better fighter. Hoping he gets it done.

I have a hard time figuring this fight out. Leaning to a LaFlare decision at the moment.
