People die every day walking down the street. Fighting isn't even all that dangerous;
More snapped limbs in football & soccer than MMA. More concussions at the local construction site etc.
Zingano suffered a brutal eye-injury, something that happens every single day in factories.
Felder suffered a collapsed lung, wasn't even that worried about it himself....
I have family members with less than 45% lung-use will full-time jobs.
I don't pity grown men & women. If you have a consciousness & 2 thumbs you've been given more than GODS.

Jéssica Andrade, TKO, R4
Rose was offered Jessica for UFC 235, but she chose to fight her at 237. She's delaying it more than necessary imho.
Suarez vs. Ansaroff
Tatiana Suarez, SUB, R1
Horrible match-up for Nina. Tatiana has a respectable gas-tank, so I'm not sure if Nina could tire Tatiana out with constant jabs to make her defend and or avoid against them at a high pace.

Rose Namajunas, DEC
Why is Namajuanas the underdog here? I don't get it? Are people forgetting Rose smoking Joanna once then outstriking her in the rematch? Plus her elite ground game and movement! I know Andrade is a beast but she tried to march down Joanna and she was chasing shadows all night not to mention getting pieced up on the feet. I try not to use MMA Math but I feel it's applicable here.
Aldo vs. Volkanovski
José Aldo, TKO, R2
This has the potential to be great. I'm picturing Aldo v Mendes 2 in my mind! Volkanovski is a force of nature! He brings non stop pressure, constantly going for takedowns with nasty GNP. Some real n8ce pressure boxing too, with the power to get the KO. The man is a PROBLEM! But he's up against a seemingly revitalized José Muthafeckin Aldo! I shouldn't need to say no more about that, he's José ALDO! Still I think Volkanovski might have the right skillset and the ability to get on Aldo and walk through shots to eventually overwhelm him. But being a 3 rounder is in Aldos favour as Volkanovski will need to be on him from the very beginning. Also with Max moving up why is this not for an Interim title? They better not give Edgar another title shot! Anyway back to the fight, for all the reasons I've given in favour of Volkanovski this version of José is looking really good so José gets the nod. for now anyway!
Cannonier vs. Silva
Anderson Silva, DEC
I will always pick Anderson to win even though I didn't like this fight at all! I'm hoping Anderson can snake charm Cannonier into a straight up range kickboxing match as I feel that's his best route to victory
Aldana vs. Correia
Irene Aldana, DEC
I like Aldana, she has some nice technical boxing on her which, let's be honest, is rare for Womens MMA, not being sexist it's true! Evidence of this is Correira was labelled as a good striker coz she TKO'd Shayna Bayzler! Case CLOSED! Aldana boxes her up as long as she avoids getting dragged into a sloppy brawl like her last fight against Pudilova which was a great scrap but I feel it could've been an easier win for Aldana if she stayed technical, hopefully she does that here

Alexander Volkanovski, TKO, R3
Alexander will put Jose Aldo in a corner and continue to pressure him, just as he did Chad Mendes.

Rose Namajunas, DEC
If a European old striker like JJ can find a way to beat Andrade, you would be mad to think Rose can’t, I just hope the location and other outside interference don’t upset her
Cannonier vs. Silva
Jared Cannonier, TKO, R1
Tough one to call because Jared has looked good lately
Aldo vs. Volkanovski
José Aldo, TKO, R3
I think Volk gasses out here with help from Aldo

andrade by late stoppage, round 3 or 4.
namajunas is a ******* head case, im really surprised she took this fight in brazil. i guess she'll have her psychiatrist, her service dog and her soyboy with her for support. joanna underestimated rose in their first fight and the second fight should have been a draw in my opinion. andrade will be way to strong for rose. it will prolly be over the first time andrade she gets her down, and she will get her down at some point.

Anderson Silva, TKO, R1
This fight is fan service
Aldo vs. Volkanovski
José Aldo, DEC
and the higher level FW version. Don't like that this isn't 5 rds. Aldo's not shot but cardio has always been a weakness and Volkanovski is Mendes with steadier striking output and less of an emphasis on finishing tds so I see an early KO for Aldo or a late finish for the Aussie if it were a 5 rounder but the likelihood of a decision in a 3 rounder is near certain and with it being in Brazil......poor Alexander.
Alves vs. Staropoli
Thiago Alves, DEC
Nog/Spann: the WW version
Trinaldo vs. Ferreira
Diego Ferreira, DEC
A closer version of Nog/Spann both in age and skill
Nogueira vs. Spann
Antônio Rogério Nogueira, TKO, R2
Hate these style of fights. Spann obviously could win but he hasn't shown that level yet and I don't like counting on old age causing Nog's level to drop off that much.
Moisés vs. Holobaugh
Thiago Moisés, SUB, R2
I like Holobaugh. He's been in entertaining fights and I think he's much better than an 0-3 UFC record would indicate and tha's why I hate this matchmaking. This is clearly an attempt to get Moises a win since he lost his debut to Beneil Dariush?!!. The risk of a loss to an underrated Holobaugh isn't worth the reward of a win over an 0-4 fighter who would almost certainly be cut. But he'll win.
Aldana vs. Correia
Bethe Correia, TKO, R2
gets pieced up in the 1st but her power (probably right) finds a home sometime mid-fight
Alves vs. Moraes
Warlley Alves, DEC
Now this surprises me. Moraes has bad offensive wrestling and Alves has good defensive AND Alves sure as hell knows he wants no part of Sergio's ground game so I see no way this doesn't play out on the feet.
Barcelos vs. Huachin Quiroz
Raoni Barcelos, SUB, R2
Just as likely that Raoni's g'n'p "convinces" the newcomer to let the rnc sink in
Bernardo vs. Gatto
Melissa Gatto, DEC
Bernardo is probably the right call due to Octagon jitters and Gatto's lackluster resume but she hasn't impressed me at all in any of her 3 UFC fights other than her tdd vs. Moras
