Trevin Giles, TKO, R2
Maybe he saved the fight but he is not going to win I think size is going to be a little problem for Krause

If I would write what I really wish to happen, I would get banned from the messageboards.
Maybe forever.

Jon Jones, DEC
Let's be honest... If Light-Heavyweight was still a stacked division, Reyes wouldn't be the #1 contender & he wouldn't be next warm body to feed to the GOAT. But that's not the case anymore and Reyes is forced into a title shot that I don't feel he's reeeaally ready for. Honestly Jon could just sit behind his massive 7.5" reach advantage & pump his Jab like a piston into Reyes face all night & I think that's kinda what's gonna happen. The jab, the teep, & the oblique kick heavy. And cruise to a Decision victory.
Shevchenko vs. Chookagian
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
Maaaan. I CANNOT BE THE ONLY ONE, that's hoping that Schevchenko absolutely destroys Chookagian, to the point she has to retire. Just so it saves the masses from ever watching the greatest female "air puncher" & "Heeee-Yah-ing" specialist again. I CANNOT STAND Chookagian. She's not even good.
Tafa vs. Adams
Juan Adams, TKO, R1
This could very well be the worst fight to ever grace a UFC PPV card... Absolutely ridiculous. This fight should be buried at the bottom of the card. ****-king absurd
Ige vs. Bektić
Dan Ige, DEC
I was extremely high on Bektic at one point in time.... But that was prior to that Darren Elkins fight. And hasn't looked like Bektic of old since. He did have that beautiful finish of Godofredo Pepey, but c'mon...... It was Godofredo Pepey. I believe this fight to be more important for Bektic to win, because it will probably break him. But if Ige wins, It'll be a huuuuuge win. Annnd I think he actually pulls it off..
Krause vs. Giles
Trevin Giles, TKO, R2
I'm actually surprised. Reeeaally surprised. Krause actually has the size advantage here. Both in height and reach. Even if ONLY slight.
Lingo vs. Zalal
Austin Lingo, TKO, R2
I actually thought we'd see this fight a loooong time ago, while both were in the LFA. But it never happened. It's clear to me tho, whichever one of the UFC matchmaking goons, was the former LFA matchmaker, had an eye on making this fight happen.

James Krause, DEC
Krause is a solid fighter really put it together

I di really want to know who's ridiculous idea it was to give Lewis to a debuting (in UFC) heavyweight on a 2 loss streak. It seems that the same person must be responsible for making Villante/Rothwell. IMHO it would make waaaay more sense to swap those opponents.

Also Krause just Guillotined freakin King Mo in a minute at quintet. A guillotine also happens to be how Giles was beaten in all three of his career losses (including am).... I've got Krause by sub. More experienced and better competition too, short notice be damned.
