I expect to see a JUICY Vitor in ONE!!!
Has the Florida Governor really opened up the beaches again?? I've seen stories about the beaches being full again! If it is like that, I never know *** to believe!, I can't help but think that's gonna end in a disaster, a spike in Corona cases. Which in turn will lead to a rapid state shutdown, killing any chance of UFC being held in Florida.

Uriah Hall, TKO, R3
You never know which Uriah Hall you get; sometimes he delivers one of the most incredible knockouts and other times he doesn’t quite seem to show up. With that being said, Hall seems to have found his rhythm as of late, as he is riding on a two-fight win streak against decent competition. I can definitely see Jacare grapple hall 3 rounds straight, hold him against the cage (like the Blachowicz fight) and ride a clear decision win there, but I can see hall eventually finding that one shot that will put Jacare away... most likely with a kick. Not to mention, in the Costa fight Hall was piecing up Costa in some moments in the fight which just shows how he can hang with top level competition in the striking department. He also has a lethal jab which could potentially keep Jacare at bay and prevent getting taken down as much. Overall, I predict that Jacare will be winning the fight with his grappling but hall will eventually find that knockout to put Jacare away.

The thing is Carlos junior is only 30 and hall was able to stave off any significant sub attempt.
Jacare doesn’t move as well any more although still carries power in his punches. Hall should be able to contend with that with his speed.
Years ago I wouldn’t even hesitate to take jacare, but not this time

Also don't think Cruz has anything to cause Cejudo trouble. The footwork maybe, but Cruz hasn't fought in 3+ years and Cejudo has great in fight adjustments to deal with adversity. I can see Cejudo finishing Cruz in rounds 3,4 or 5. Ferguson is an animal and I don't think Gaethje's style will work on Tony. Tony gets dropped in almost all of his fights but he's never actually been hurt from it and more often than not, ends up responding by hurting his opponents right back. He has cut every single one of his last 5 opponents. Dude is a legit threat from any position and any angle. Don't see how Gaethje is ready for this given the timeline for when he accepted the fight.

5 rounds with short notice jack hermansson / 5 round split decision loss to the potential next LHW title challenger in jan blachowicz
both of the fights were boring as **** but i think hermansson/blachowicz are way better fighters than uriah hall

Luque vs Santos
Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 420 Points | Tied for 1640th
However, I didn't know video footage of the fight even existed until tonight.
I figured I’d share in this thread since Luque is on the card.
Enjoy y’all.

Both are no match for Zang, Suarez is the only one right now but she is always hurt.
