Prediction Comments

Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 5 Perfect, 580 Points   |   Tied for 476th

Jotko vs. Barriault
Krzysztof Jotko, DEC
That Pantōja/Figueirédo scrap woulda made this PPV wayyy better... Other than that, the other 4 fights are outstanding. That's all I hafta say about this fight here. Sorry Jõtko, Barriault... You get nooo love from me.

Davis vs. Araujo
Viviane Araujo, DEC
I like Vivi Araújo. And I like this matchup for her. It's a good way for her to jump halfway up the Flyweight ranks if she beats Davis here....... Which I think she does win here, but I don't see a win by way of finish, considering Davis is tough and durable.

Dawodu vs. Horie
Hakeem Dawodu, TKO, R2
I originally had Dawodu as an absolute lock for a win (other than cyborg), but then I watched tape. Mean Hakeem is gonna hafta weather a severe onslaught for 4-5 mins.... If he can get thru R1, THEN I THINK HE'S A LOCK, as I believe Yoshinori Horie will blow his load in R1 and will ultimately be finished himself, maybe half due to exhaustion. Still expect a banger here.

Tucker vs. Choi
Seung Woo Choi, DEC
All of you guys are straight up sleeping on Seung Woo Choi..... Which is fine by me.

Pantoja vs. Figueiredo
Alexandre Pantoja, DEC
Idk how this isn't split, straight down the pipe, 50/50, heads up, whatever you wanna call it. This is seriously the hardest fight to pick in recent memory for me (Even longer than my one week long short term memory......... And Noooo, it's not to be blamed on cannabis)

Robertson vs. Frota
Gillian Robertson, SUB, R2
There's just something about Sarah Frota that irritates the **** & piss outta me...... Annnd that's before I bring up her "trying to be hard without being hard" face tattoos. Just wish Gillian Robertson strangles her unconscious, and then holds the choke 5 extra seconds. (I'm telling you, I'm not a violent person!)

Stewart vs. Koch
Kyle Stewart, DEC
Erik Koch at Welterweight????? Uhhhhhh, nooo thanks. Maybe shoulda worked or trained harder or something, instead of using 25,000 hours to cover your torso in badass inkwork. (I know I sound hateful. I'm not. I just don't think Welterweight is the answer.)

Only eleven fights on this card

I feel like with analias being gone mostly someone has to state the obvious. Since we got a little extra time till this party starts I'm gonna have a shower and scrub my crevices.

Man, Megan has really gone downhill the last year. Hot to middle aged charwoman seemingly overnight. She's like a pear.

I'm Frankie's biggest nuthugger so take this with a grain of salt, but I think there's a chance he does to Holloway what he did to Yair. Max has faced no strong offensive wrestlers and certainly none that are Frankie's caliber. Max's footwork, movement, and speed will be his best tools to counter the takedown, but if Frankie can get him down I could see him landing some damaging ground and pound.
