Don't underestimate Till

Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 480 Points   |   Tied for 876th

Agreed but I think Till learned a lesson from Masvidal and won't make the same mistake - Keep it on the mat and I think Till takes this

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 5 of 9 Winners, 2 Perfect, 340 Points   |   Tied for 2196th

Gastelum vs. Till
Darren Till, TKO, R1
This line steamed hard for the fave, not sure if Id buy that sentiment with real money, not cheap, not at all.

Thompson vs. Luque
Vicente Luque, TKO, R2
Of course watching first 2 rounds of Masvidal fight stayed with me, but Pettis punch seals it, Lucque will take hard some shots to get in range and than calmly reign down bombs

Anderson vs. Walker
Johnny Walker, TKO, R1
Not overthinkiing it,

Chookagian vs. Maia
Katlyn Chookagian, DEC
I would love to see a finish, but at -650 I doubt it, lol

Good vs. Rencountre
Lyman Good, TKO, R1
Im thinking 2 out of 3 of these NYC boys win

Arce vs. Dawodu
Julio Arce, DEC
Not betting it, id love to see it

Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 340 Points   |   Tied for 2173rd

Masvidal vs. Diaz
Jorge Masvidal, DEC
This fight is 50/50 to me but Masvidal has a better track record for when fights go to Decision and both of them are too durable for a finish. But im worried because when people fight like "Men' angest Nate they usualy lose like Cowboy and Conor and Masvadal ain't no *****

Gastelum vs. Till
Kelvin Gastelum, TKO, R2
I see the obvious anwser for the fight is Gastelum by dominating KO as he drop like his last 10 opponite including Izzy, Jacure and Bisping but Till lost his last 2 and im sketch that this fight could be rigged or something as Till is a big name. Im going with Gastulum because im picking alot of underdogs already

Thompson vs. Luque
Vicente Luque, TKO, R2
Wonderboy has been becoming worst and his chin is the reason hes was never champ. He got drop in 4 of his last 5 fight including Till and Woodly and got KTFO by Pettis. Chins don't get better and Luque has a killer instinct and when he drops him he finishes him.

Lewis vs. Ivanov
Derrick Lewis, TKO, R3
Derrick Lewis is probley due for a KO and I see Blagoy winning for 2 1/2 rounds before get mudderd

Lee vs. Gillespie
Gregor Gillespie, DEC
This fight is close but im picking Gregore based on toughness but Gregor will loss to all the people Lee lost to and Lee will beat everyone who Gregor beat .

Anderson vs. Walker
Johnny Walker, TKO, R1
Sean Shelby is a genust for booking this fight as both these guy are each other kryptonite. Anderson is about top 3 skill wised but chinny . But Walker is Powerful and relaxed and im picking Walker . Ufc also boked this fight for Walker as Anderson has no personalty and a fight style that will make Ambian jelly and Walker kills people in secound and has a personaly

Burgos vs. Amirkhani
Shane Burgos, DEC
I hope Burgos win because I Hate Makwan Smug **** Smile and Burgos is good

Tavares vs. Shahbazyan
Brad Tavares, DEC
Shabazyan will be a good fighter in like a few years but I see Tavares giving him a vet lession

Arlovski vs. Rozenstruik
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R2
Rozenstruik will ko The pitbul

Chookagian vs. Maia
Katlyn Chookagian, DEC
Maia is uglier and that good for fighting skill. I think Chookagan is going to throw weak strikes and make me wonder why i watch MMA

Good vs. Rencountre
Chance Rencountre, DEC
Recountre really imprese me in his fight with the other Wonderboy but Lyman wins angest cans and get smash angest good fighter

Arce vs. Dawodu
Julio Arce, DEC
Julio Arce beat Dan Ige and Teymer lil bro and going to a close with Sheyman morese and i don't know why Hakeem is a prospect for lossing to Dan henry and going to split with Bochnack and Bocknick ain't ****

Some Plays for 244 $

Predictions: 5 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 400 Points   |   Tied for 1724th

Diaz by decision. +275.
KG by decision assuming middle weight Till's chin holds up. +275.
Some serious money to be made on those two plays. 
If you wanted to get real wild and think Till might win by stoppage in the second. +2000. Big boy moves hahah

Lastly, a Paylay: Thompson, Lewis, Edmen. +500. Thank me later boys! enjoy the event

I looked at the skill sets of each fighter and gave my thoughts on which skill sets would win out for UFC 244. It's a decent read if you're interested in this week's UFC 244 at MSG. https://medium.com/@TheFightGuy/ufc-madison-square-garden-9addff1cf204?sk=031e51d90bb0a02d3773dcb8d53cb844

Agree on the closeness of these matchups. Only 4 that aren't tossups imo are Gastellum, Gillespie, Walker, and Burgos. No Bellator style here.
