Ige vs. Bektić
Dan Ige, DEC
I think Ige wins he has better ground game and he is better fighter then Mirsad but I want Mirsad to win somehow

If latifi can land body kicks on Lewis I can c him winning by tko

#$@& *$#

Jon Jones vs Dominiqe Reyes
I kinda have a Anderson Silva, Chris Weidman vibe from this fight but Jon is the goat and he should win of that. But even tho people give Dom **** for it I think he is the best Athlete Jon probley has fought

Valintina Shevshinko vs Kailyn Chookaian 
People acting like Valintina is some lady  that give life changing beating like Nunes or Cyborg but honesly the only 2 fighter she really **** up was Eye[her only Ko in the ufc] and the chick who got Mario Yamisaki fired  .but she better than Kaitlyn Chookain who  miss strikes and moan like she an actress in backdoor **** 9 and i never went out of the first round of any ofher fights

Juan Adam vs Justin Tafa
Both are bums but Adams doesn't like fighing  to much and gave up fighting Hardy and Tafa suck but one thing about the Mauri is that their willing to fight  and when both fighter suck balls i pick the figher who wants it more

Dan Ige vs Mirsard Bektic
Bektic aint a bad fighter and his only flaw is his chin, Ige could Ko him because Elkins did it and even tho Emment probley has the most power in the division  he did it with a jab who Kos someone with that, But Bektic train at Tristar and i think they have a plan to win with wresling 

Derrick Lewis vs Ilir Latifi
Derrick lewis is the best underdog in the Ufc but his not the best favourite and Latifi can win with Wresting and being a faster fighter But Derrick Lewis get up game is hilarous in his last fight he got out of kimora and just stood up with no technique and i think he will ko him  but if he doesn't he will loss a decsion

Trevin Giles vs Antanino Arroyo 
Trevin Giles look good until hes loss and i miss the other guy last fight so i don't really know

Andrea Lee vs Lauren  Murphy

Andrea Lee is the better figher so im picking her  but knowing WMMA  Murphy will win because  1st Women Mma is retrarded and Lee is preety and u should listen to Mikey as hes a smart guy. And honesly i Hate Murphy because she a ***** on the ultimate fighter  

Alex Moreno vs Kalinn Willaims
Alex Moreno is training with Fortis and hes a good fighter and his fight vs Max was really good and hes a good gatekepper to the top 50 in the ufc  and Kalinn is a short notice replacement so u know he in the ufc to early 

Myles John vs  Mario Bautisa
Myles John  is a great fighter  and he a great wrestler  and Bautista  is a stricker and Wresler with a genous like Saif Saiod in his corner is great

Andre Eweel vs Jonathon Martinez

Lossing to Wood and Chito ain't bad as their top 15 but lossing to soccarmom is tho

Austin Lingo vs  Yussef Zalal
Fortis MMA FTW

So, I’m seeing that James Krause is stepping in to fight Trevin Giles as of today? That’s wild ****, good for him.

I’ll actually be at the card. Yeah, I’m aware of how bad it is. It still won’t be as bad as the worst UFC card I’ve been to (go check out those San Antonio fight nights I sat thru), and I get to cross two more title defenses off of the list in my quest to see a title fight in every weight class.

Going to be hitting up some breweries while I’m there, honestly the main reason I’m going. Only way you could get me to spend the weekend in Houston is with some fights and a whole lotta beers!

great man !!! enjoy and drink one for the shark xD !!! 

James Krause is going to take this fight short notice at catchweight (170lbs) 

James "The Real" Krause

Krause weighed in at 183.5 lbs

****... i put a lot money on Trevin Giles and Antônio Arroyo fight...

5dimes has Krauss -110 / Giles -130

Practically every fight will have a "hometown" fighter going. I assume it will mean little in the cage,but I like the energy that might be transferred to Lewis as much as any of the fighters.

Tafa vs. Adams
Justin Tafa, TKO, R1
Adams might be bigger, might be learning new things, but he has lackluster power. +210

I really hope that nothing crazy happens in the first 30 seconds of main event, no askren knee, no one strike finish I want to see these dudes fight for a bit.  I like that they think little of each other. It has me emotionally invested.

Im suprise how close the size match up because Krause is fighting at his walk around weight and Trevin cut weight, and even if Krause losses he doesn't reallt matter because Dana likes him

Krause vs. Giles
Trevin Giles, DEC
like that krause is taking the risk, just thinking size will play a factor.

Jones vs. Reyes
Jon Jones, DEC
wins 4 out of 5 wins. check reyes prop ko.

Shevchenko vs. Chookagian
Valentina Shevchenko, TKO, R4
Get that Prop KO.

Tafa vs. Adams
Justin Tafa, TKO, R3
go for the dog! Tafa went to tiger muay thai. adams is missing practices and going home for the holidays. KO Props?

Ige vs. Bektić
Mirsad Bektić
dog or pass. Bektic probably by decision. Check Prop bet for Ige by KO.

Lewis vs. Latifi
Derrick Lewis, TKO, R1
Ilir is in big trouble. Look for ko props.

Giles vs. Arroyo
Trevin Giles, DEC
maybe the upset of the night for arroyo. Trevon Giles could edge out the decision

Morono vs. Williams
Alex Morono, SUB, R2
not confident

Johns vs. Bautista
Miles Johns, DEC
bautista out volumes. Miles throw bombs and will win by close volume and takedowns

Pilarte vs. Newson
Domingo Pilarte, DEC
Pilarte has a 7 inch reach advantage! Local Fighter.

Ewell vs. Martinez
Jonathan Martinez, SUB, R3
ShaQ thinks Martinez will win by RD3 sub. Martinez better fighter but young. Ewell experienced but just a left hand.

Lingo vs. Zalal
Austin Lingo, TKO, R2
Shaq and Allsopp think Lingo will get KO. Zalal maybe by Sub.
