Fabrício Werdum, DEC
Werdum is simply better everywhere. Though, it would be pretty dank if he taps to an Ezekiel choke.

Justin Gaethje, TKO, R2
Lemme just start off by saying that this has been a long-term dream fight for me. Tony was early in his 12 fight win streak and Gaethje was still WSOF Lightweight Champ. And depending on the day, if you ask me who my all-time favorite Lightweight is, it'll either be Ferguson or Gaethje. And I've fully exhausted myself just breaking down this fight. I feel extremely guilty, but I think Gaethje's Leg Kicks will play a huuuge part. I think the Leg Kicks will open up a big right hand in R2. I just got this gut feeling that Gaethje is going to take advantage of the fact that Ferguson doesn't mind taking a shot to give a shot. I think Ferguson is a little more hittable than Gaethje and I also think Gaethje has the power advantage. If Ferguson has a performance like he did against Vannata or Barboza, I think Gaethje finishes him. Sorry Tony. I still love you.
Cejudo vs. Cruz
Henry Cejudo, DEC
Man. I'd do anything to see Dom Cruz literally rip Cejudo's head off. But I find it very unlikely. Cejudo's Wrestling and Takedowns for the win.
N'Gannou vs. Rozenstruik
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
I guess I'm in the minority. Rozenstruik is the better & cleaner striker, with ALMOST EQUAL power. If Rozenstruik fights smart, the striking gap should carry him to victory. But if he chooses to bang with Ngannou, that's a recipe for disaster and really would just be giving Ngannou a better shot at winning.
Stephens vs. Kattar
Calvin Kattar, DEC
2+ years since Jeremy Stephens tasted victory. Daaaamn that sucks. I think the trend continues.
Hardy vs. De Castro
Greg Hardy, TKO, R2
If we were talking about anyone else, a 6.5" reach advantage is extremely advantageous. But we're talking about ******* Greg Hardy. Lol. He's still an idiot. He's still ******* Greg Hardy. I just. God, why can't I be confident like the 53% of you picking De Castro? Dammit.
Cerrone vs. Pettis II
Anthony Pettis, DEC
WHY!!! WWWWWHHHYYYYYYYYYY!?
Esparza vs. Waterson
Michelle Waterson, DEC
God whatta fan-unfriendly fight. Infinite Takedown Attempts vs. Infinite Spam Teeps. Take your pick.

The only fights I'm even close (as in, above 90%) to being 100% about are...
- Spann vs Alvey
- Werdum vs Oleinik
- Luque vs Price II
The next set I would say I'm 70%-90% positive about the winners.
- Stephens vs Kattar
- N'Gannou vs Rozenstruik
- Souza vs Hall
- Cerrone vs Pettis II
The rest pretty much fall into the coin flip range. I can see a lot of the (Tapology and Vegas) dogs getting his/her hands raised
- Charles Rosa +132
- Uriah Hall +104
- Michelle Waterson +135
- Anthony Pettis +112
- De Castro +165
- Rozenstruik +220
- Cruz +180
- Gaethje +150
I mean ****...that entire list could hit and be a pretty sweet parlay and I wouldn't be surprised one bit. I've never flip flopped more on a card my entire life.
Point being, is that even without Khabib, this card is extremely stacked and put together very well. The higher ups deserve pats on their backs for putting this together and fighting like hell to put on something legendary in the sports world in a sport-less world.

Like I said the only outcomes that would shock me is Mitchell knocking Charles out right out the gate, or if this fight doesn't hit the mat.
Although I'm leaning towards Bryce taking it on the scorecards myself, who wouldn't want to see another twister?
