anyone catch the part where Chookagian said "Valentina's last 2 opponents aren't on the same level as me"  yet her last 2 opponents are also Chookagians last 2 losses????  she clearly has a masters degree in MMA math

Chookagian is a typical LI chick Thinks she is pretty, thinks she's cool, think she's smart.

Her accent is beyond annoying. Her fight game is pathetic. She sucks and will get crushed.

Valentina would beat chookagian and her poser husband in the octagon at the same time. I bet this lame ass couple doesn't even pick up their dogs **** when walking on the beach. LI trash is what they are. Seriously, people from Connecticut, LI, NYC and NJ are the most loathsome people in this country.

@Johnny Chookagian just has that average bowl cut soccer mom personality, rubs me the wrong way.

Jones vs. Reyes
Jon Jones, DEC
first real prospect fight since the first gus bout, hopefully we get a motivated jones. either way i think he'll be able to avoid the big shots and win the sparring match if he can't take it down.

Shevchenko vs. Chookagian
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
yawn.

Tafa vs. Adams
Juan Adams, DEC
stop pushing juan adamas like he's someone to watch. he's not.

Ige vs. Bektić
Mirsad Bektić, DEC
had a feeling bektic would get cracked by emmett, but not sure ige can do the same. i'm assuming bektic's top game can keep ige at be.

Lewis vs. Latifi
Derrick Lewis, DEC
black beast is gonna throw 2 jumping switch kicks early, be gassed right after, and barely throw punches after. not sure ilir will actually move forward though so this one could be tepid and frustrating, sounds like the them for the card.

Giles vs. Arroyo
Trevin Giles, DEC
not sure what to make of this one. giles seems like the more proven product, but who knows.

Lee vs. Murphy
Andrea Lee, DEC
murphy could grind it out, just not sure she can take andrea down and keep her there.

Morono vs. Williams
Alex Morono, DEC
morono could get cracked, but i'll pick him to tough it out.

Johns vs. Bautista
Miles Johns, DEC
better competition it seems.

Pilarte vs. Newson
Journey Newson, DEC
i remember newson looking decent against ramos.

Ewell vs. Martinez
Andre Ewell, DEC
martinez has been getting asian regionals, i'll take ewell.

Lingo vs. Zalal
Austin Lingo, DEC
i'll just make it extra boring and take all decisions. coin flip here, zalal has just lost to both guys with decent records so i'll go lingo.

Morono vs. Williams
Alex Morono, SUB, R1
Huge difference in skill and I think Morono takes advantage and drops and finishes Williams in the 1st.

Lingo vs. Zalal
Youssef Zalal, DEC
Zalal is going to have the reach and size advantage and although I think Lingo has serious power for 145, I think Zalal can make it a dirty grappling-heavy fight and win a decision by having top time and controlling Lingo. If Lingo wins it's by early TKO

i dont think latifi will be able to keep lewis down, if it ever gets there. dc was the only one who kept lewis down. against everyone else he just rests for a minute and then when hes ready he just gets up. what is latifi going to weigh? 225 or 230? if that much. his record at light heavy is an outstanding 7-5. hes going to get crushed in the first round.
