Sodiq Yusuff, DEC
UFC now moves this fight to the PPV portion of the evening which seems like they want to showcase Yusuff in this one. Pick is Yusuff. I will be putting in a 2 pick with Cifers.
Cifers vs. Esquibel
Hannah Cifers, DEC
Esquibel is terrible. Cifers with the win. 2 pick parlay of Cifers and Yusuff. Should hit without much worry.

Daniel Cormier, SUB, R2
i think/hope stipe respects daniel's striking a little more this time around, but not expecting that to deter dc from doing his thing.
Diaz vs. Pettis
Nate Diaz, DEC
feels weird this is happening so far down the line, but i like it. i keep picking against pettis and he looks decent so i'll hope to continue being a jinx. no way to know what nate will look like after so long out.
Romero vs. Costa
Yoel Romero, DEC
fingers crossed for all the fireworks this looks to be, but i'm gonna be a bummer and say decision. not sure costa is ready for yoel but his hands have to be respected.
Yusuff vs. Benítez
Sodiq Yusuff, DEC
hard to get inside on sodiq, i think he can keep the fight at range.
Brunson vs. Heinisch
Derek Brunson, DEC
i think derek looks to grind here, at least after he feels a couple punches.
Smith vs. Worthy
Devonte Smith, TKO, R2
smith is a crazy big favorite and i think i agree. worthy has been ko'd a bunch and smith is clearly looking to finish.
Assunção vs. Sandhagen
Cory Sandhagen, DEC
big height/reach difference, hard matchup for a pointfighter.
Klose vs. Giagos
Drakkar Klose, DEC
could be some fun scrambles, thinking klose can stay technical and box between stuffing entries.
Bermudez vs. Kenney
Manny Bermudez, SUB, R2
bermudez seems to be one of the few younger guys that are specialists and casey got a gift after being dragged around by borg so i think manny should find td's.
Cifers vs. Esquibel
Jodie Esquibel, DEC
if the stats here are accurate then jodie has a 2 in reach advantage, that's crazy considering how short she is. maybe she can dance around and get rounds?
Davis vs. Kang
Kyung Ho Kang, DEC
not sure where this fight plays out, but i'm expecting kang to be the one controlling the range.
Mazo vs. Dobson
Sabina Mazo, DEC
mazo is competent enough to not get one-punched i think.

Stipe Miocic, TKO, R3
Maaaan I dunno..... I've been flip-floppin on this one for 2 weeks. Originally thinking DC. He's goood at what he does, he's underrated in my opinion. doesn't get the full respect I think he deserves. Wrestling. Clearly KO POWER, I believe he's still unbeaten at Heavyweight, which I think is the better division for him, even tho he's a short ****. Thinking he'd use wrestling on way to a full 5 round wipeout, or finish him later, R3.. But honestly, I can't get the thought of a more composed Stipe, That fights smart. Uses his strengths and clear advantages. Boxing, Reach, Etc. I can't ignore that 7½" reach advantage. Stipe has nice hands. I think he could annoy DC for a few rounds, then take him out later R3/R4. But then iI go back to seeing how DC can beat that. Get inside on Miocic, and get his takedowns, or land those huge shots. Duuude, I reeaaally have trouble with this one.
Diaz vs. Pettis
Anthony Pettis, DEC
Look, I reeaaally enjoy a Nate Diaz scrap, who doesn't ya know. We all knooow what were gonna get with Nate. On the feet, lots of pitty-pat shots with the occasional heavier shot behind it, Great Boxing. But like a boxer, HEAVY on the lead leg. I think that's a terrible thing vs. Pettis' lethal kicks. I honestly see Pettis painting a masterpiece similar to what RDA did to Nate way back on a FOX Card. destroyed that lead leg. And if it goes to the ground, Pettis is goood enough to hold his own... Like I said, I like Nate. ****-king happpy to see him back. Just not sure this was the right fight. Pettis is a monster at Welterweight.
