@Rombu
I just read somewhere about Athletic Commission trying to discourage referee & Judges with "future consequence". I think they are just unhappy with the UFC not listening to them.

Rose is so dynamic and dangerous everywhere when she has it together. I’m just not sure she still has the same thirst. I agree with Phil that she can be a little fragile. Very complicated fighter mentally IMO.

 swain, maybe fragile is a better word than weak, but definitely not the personality profile of your average fighter.

I was surprise it was not already cancell, Namajunas have no motivation to fight since the 2nd Johana fight. Theres no chance she fight during a pandemic.

Ferguson vs. Gaethje
Justin Gaethje, TKO, R2
Hard to predict. Could go either way. Both are incredibly violent finishers who tends to get hurt early, but seems to recover very quickly. Gaethje was almost finished twice by Michael Johnson, and Ferguson by Lando Vannata. Plus, Gaethje is fighting on very short notice, and Ferguson had some concerning mental issues recently, as well as some injuries. I'm going with Gaethje for an early KO, but I wouldn't bet on that fight.

Hardy vs. De Castro
Greg Hardy, TKO, R1
As much as I dislike Greg Hardy, he's a decent talent and is improving nicely. His showing vs Volkov was encouraging, as he was able to survive against a much more experienced fighter, for all 3 rounds without gassing out. He will never be a champion, but I think he can win some fights in the top 10. De Castro is a talented fighter himself and good test for him.

Luque vs. Price
Vicente Luque, TKO, R2
Price is very fun to watch, but his chin isn't the best, and Luque hits hard...

N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Francis N'Gannou, DEC
Both are very dangerous standing, with Ngannou having the edge in power, and Rozenstruik in cardio. But don't let the Miocic fight foul you, If you watch Ngannou early fights, he's a decent MMA wrestler when he's not tired, and is very capable on the ground, he had no problem taking his opponent to the ground, even submitting some of them with good technique. Rozenstruik is helpless on his back, and even if Ngannou can't KO him in the early rounds, he can dominate him on the ground.

Hardy vs. De Castro
Greg Hardy, DEC
An unbiased prediction of mine is Greg Hardy by decision. I hate the guy, but he is patient, composed, and has serious KO power. Yorgan seems like your typical heavyweight one punch knockout one hit wonder type prospect. I think Greg out jabs Yorgan to a decision, or he gets a late KO.

Luque vs. Price
Vicente Luque, SUB, R2
Very fun fight. This is awesome. Price is wild, and Luque is more composed, and I think that will be the difference here. Also, Luque has a good ground game. I think that will come into play here.

N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Francis N'Gannou, TKO, R2
Bigi Boy is very percise, technical, and has tons of KO power. Francis only has KO power. However, I think Francis will catch Jarzinho on the chin, and send him to bed,

Hernandez vs. Morales
Alexander Hernandez, DEC
Easy decision win for Hernandez. He isn’t that great though.

Borg vs. Vera
Marlon Vera, TKO, R1
Vera is on a different level. KOS, subs, and experience. Borg is a vet, but that won’t matter when Vera sends him to sleep with a head kick and punches.

Johnson vs. Worthy
Michael Johnson, DEC
Michael is a very good boxer, and Worthy is well, average from what I’ve seen. He knocked out Smith, but MJ is years ahead of Smith. Michael Johnson via 30-27

Ferguson vs. Gaethje
Justin Gaethje, TKO, R1
I’ll keep saying it. A patient Justin Gaethje is incredible. I think he catches Tony late in round 1. Tony will bounce back tho and get a shot at Khabib eventually.

Hardy vs. De Castro
Yorgan De Castro, TKO, R1
Yorgan is the better striker. He’ll TKO Hardy early. Another good fight

Luque vs. Price
Vicente Luque, TKO, R1
WAR. Luque’s chin will hold up, and he’ll put Niko away in my opinion

Stephens vs. Kattar
Calvin Kattar, TKO, R2
Kattar has some of the best hands in the UFC

N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Francis N'Gannou, TKO, R1
I can’t wait for this fight. First to land wins. Francis in my opinion.

Souza vs. Hall
Ronaldo Souza, DEC
I think Jacare will out grapple him

Hernandez vs. Morales
Alexander Hernandez, DEC
Omar is a beast, but coming in on short notice against Alex is risky.

Borg vs. Vera
Marlon Vera, TKO, R2
Hopefully Borg makes weight... either way Vera finishes this however he wants

Johnson vs. Worthy
Khama Worthy, TKO, R1
Khama is a legit prospect. He definitely surprised me against Devonte Smith. I think he’ll do the same to Johnson

Eubanks vs. Moras
Sijara Eubanks, DEC
Sarj takes this one

Spann vs. Alvey
Ryan Spann, TKO, R2
Spann is on a tear right now. I think he finishes Alvey

Anyone else think the ufc going on could be dangerous because not 1 of the 50 state commision  is allowing the fight and it not just the ***** state like LA and New York, it also all the middle ones. 

P.s the 2 people who dislike this post are ******s, The corona virus is a real ******* danger

Yea, Shark.  I have no doubt it’s dangerous. They should not go on most likely. I will definitely still watch. TBH

I heard Rose had 2 fam members pass due to Corona. My heart goes out. My neighbors father passed in NYvand it’s rough. She can’t even go grieve with her mom or get closure. These are tough times. I won’t fault anyone who doesn’t want to fight right now. 

Other than Khabib obviously.

Ferguson vs. Gaethje
Tony Ferguson, TKO, R3
Tony outlast Justin put him in deep waters and tony makes it out like usual.

Hardy vs. De Castro
Yorgan De Castro, TKO, R1
Yorgan derails the hype train that is Greg hardy.

Luque vs. Price
Niko Price, TKO, R2
Price comes out like a ball of fire unlike last time these two met.

Stephens vs. Kattar
Calvin Kattar, TKO, R2
Calvin picks apart Stevens till he’s out.

N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Francis N'Gannou, TKO, R1
First one that lands cleanly wins I’m gonna take the experience and intimidation factor of Francis.

Souza vs. Hall
Ronaldo Souza, DEC
Jacare our grapples hall the whole fight very boring and he gets the dominant decision win.

Hernandez vs. Morales
Alexander Hernandez, DEC
Hernandez just out fights Omar in most aspects should get this one done but it will go the distance.

Borg vs. Vera
Marlon Vera, TKO, R2
Vera is long and dangerous only way borg can win is if his gets it in tight and brawls with Vera.

Johnson vs. Worthy
Michael Johnson, DEC
Michael Johnson shows that he still has hands and wins a stellar stand up matchup.

Eubanks vs. Moras
Sijara Eubanks, DEC
Eubanks is better all round expecting a good performance out of her.

Spann vs. Alvey
Ryan Spann, TKO, R1
Spann is dangerous and just getting started on his tear through the light heavy weight division.
