Pettis must win.  After all, McGregor must fight with someone else.

Ferguson vs. Gaethje
Justin Gaethje, TKO, R2
If UFC 249 happend 3 weeks ago Ferguson will win no question about it but now that both went to a fight camp Gaethje will win by ko. If fight goes to 4th and 5th I think it will be close but I think it will end in first 3 rounds

Cejudo vs. Cruz
Dominick Cruz, DEC
Cruz will win this one.Cejudo can win only if he takes Cruz down and I don't think that will happend

N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Francis N'Gannou, TKO, R1
I think N'Gannou is better then Rozenstruik but again in heavyweight one punch can decide everything

Stephens vs. Kattar
Calvin Kattar, DEC
Great match up. Kattar is great I really hate that he lost that fight against Zabit

Hardy vs. De Castro
Greg Hardy, TKO, R1
I don't believe this fight will last longer them 5 mins but don't care who wins

Cerrone vs. Pettis II
Donald Cerrone, DEC
So sad to see how this two have fallen but I guess years got them. This is a 50-50 match. And why is this fight on Prelims and Hardy vs Castro on main card

Werdum vs. Oleinik
Fabrício Werdum, SUB, R2
This is actually close fight. Both fighters are not in their prime and both good on ground. I think Werdum wins by sub his jiu jitsu and ground game is better then Oleiniks

Souza vs. Hall
Uriah Hall, DEC
Hall will win this one

Luque vs. Price
Vicente Luque, TKO, R2
Niko is good and his finishers are awesome but Luque is way better

Rosa vs. Mitchell
Bryce Mitchell, SUB, R1
I hope that Mitchell is going to win by twister again 😂

Spann vs. Alvey
Ryan Spann, TKO, R1
After this fight Alvey is out of ufc

But I wouldn't call any of these maniacs ******* I punch a clock nobody tryina **** me up.
That being said its really a toss up on fragility cowboy has withstood about a 10x the punishment and still competes.
Pet has been stopped at micro midget on a good day either will spectacular ko most anybody.
FYI getting kod by connor is no joke if he was in better shape hed have kod diaz in second.
Oddly the best explanation of quitting in mma was given by Qwjack look it up not gonna misquote.

Stephens vs. Kattar
Jeremy Stephens, DEC
For someone with a good hand-speed and a jab, Calvin does end up cornered against the fence from time to time.

Cerrone vs. Pettis II
Anthony Pettis, TKO, R1
Wouldn't be surprised if Anthony ends up being the pressure fighter in this bout.

Stephens-Kattar & Mitchell-Rosa are the 2 hardest fight to call on this card (m'I opinion)
