Predictions: 2 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 150 Points   |   Tied for 2619th

Gadelha vs. Hill
Cláudia Gadelha, DEC
フィジカルに差があるのでガーデリャがテイクダウンで勝つと予想。ただし、スタミナの低下が懸念点。

Barboza vs. Ige
Edson Barboza, DEC
バルボーザのキックゲームが効果的に通用しそうな相手。ただフェザー級デビューなのが心配。

Anders vs. Jotko
Eryk Anders, DEC
お互いに攻略するには少しずつ足りない。アンダースは手数が足りず、ジョッコはカウンター能力が足りない。ジョッコはテイクダウンできた試合でしか勝ててないが、アンダースをテイクダウンするのは難しそう。微妙な試合でより前に出れたアンダースが判定で勝ちそう。

Song vs. Vera
Marlon Vera, DEC
身長は同じだがヴェラの方がリーチが長い。その上にヴェラはスイッチングができる

Holland vs. Hernandez
Anthony Hernandez, DEC
一発をもらわなければ基本的には打撃もグラウンドもヘルナンデスが優勢。ヘルナンデスの打たれ弱さだけが心配。

Elkins vs. Landwehr
Darren Elkins, DEC
打撃が特にテクニカルなわけでも、テイクダウンディフェンスがいいわけでもないので、エルキンスが優勢な試合。しかし、脆くなっていないかが心配。まったく関係ないが、エルキンスは試合日35歳の誕生日である。

Casey vs. Borella
Cortney Casey, DEC
打撃はケイシー、テイクダウンはボレラという構図。おそらくスタミナがケイシーの方がある。ただ、サイズアドバンテージを失ったケイシーが距離をつかめない可能性もある。

Mayes vs. Nascimento
Rodrigo Nascimento, SUB, R1
ロドリゴにグラップリングアドバンテージがあり、メイエスのテイクダウンディフェンスがよくは見えない。

Overeem vs. Harris
Walt Harris, TKO, R2
If Overeem is smart he'll get to the ground as soon as he can, he's got some really underrated (and underused) grappling. The likelihood though is Harris catching him early, definitely one of the quickest strikers in the division

Song vs. Vera
Yadong Song, DEC
While Vera has good grappling Song was able to hang with one of the strongest wrestlers in the division in Stamann, his best bet will be keeping at his range with kicks but Song is gonna want to go to the ground. By far Vera's toughest challenge since Lineker

Elkins vs. Landwehr
Nate Landwehr, TKO, R2
Well I thought it would take longer for Nate to come across a good counter striker to obliterate him but there you go. With that being said even if he hasn't been tightening his defence since then I can't see this ending well for Darren, even after all those brawls he still relies too much on his chin. In the end Nate just seems like the stronger and faster version of him

Overeem vs. Harris
Alistair Overeem, TKO, R3
i hope i'm wrong, but i don't really get walt as a favorite. i'm taking reem wherever he decides to play it.

Gadelha vs. Hill
Cláudia Gadelha, DEC
on paper, this is all claudia, just based on grappling ability. hill could piece her up at range, but she always has trouble when girls get inside and i think claudia is durable enough to wear a few shots to do so.

Barboza vs. Ige
Edson Barboza, DEC
i like ige because he skates, but for some reason i'm expecting edson to look great tomorrow.

Anders vs. Jotko
Eryk Anders, DEC
tough pick. jotko is more technical and has the experience edge, but i'm not sure i trust him in terms of volume against a forward moving tank like anders.

Song vs. Vera
Yadong Song, DEC
it always "looks" like vera gets lucky when his aggression nets him a win, but i see song being able to slow the fight down perhaps and take him to scorecards where he has all 5 of his losses.

Brown vs. Baeza
Matt Brown, TKO, R2
hard to gauge baeza off the aldana win, i'll go with nostalgia. experience worked for the older guys last event.

Holland vs. Hernandez
Kevin Holland, DEC
another pickem. hernandez beat brendan allen who beat holland so i'm picking mmamath to fail.

Chikadze vs. Rivera
Giga Chikadze, TKO, R2
props to rivera for stepping up, and maybe he can pull off an upset, but i'm gonna go with a more palatable pick. everything round 2.

Elkins vs. Landwehr
Darren Elkins, SUB, R2
classic elkins first round, but with a comeback sub in the second? sounds like an acceptable pick.

Casey vs. Borella
Mara Romero Borella, DEC
i can't pick either of these girls' fights properly. never know what you'll get with casey so i'll take borella to change levels and keep her guessing.

Mayes vs. Nascimento
Dontale Mayes, DEC
i can see why many are favoring rodrigo, definitely comes off as the better resume to me, but the bookies have it as a pickem so i don't feel as bad taking mayes to outlast him for a decision.

Mayes vs. Nascimento
Rodrigo Nascimento, DEC
It worries me when someone is making their UFC debut with so much hype in the heavyweight division. Nascimento has been steamrolling through guys in the first round, but what happens in the 2nd? 3rd? I think this is a lot closer than the odds suggest. Nascimento by split decision.

Overeem vs. Harris
Walt Harris, TKO, R2
It will be VERY interesting to see how Walt responds fighting after that tragic incident. He may come out more determined than ever - thats what I see. But who knows what something like that will affect a person

Gadelha vs. Hill
Angela Hill, DEC
im smelling an upset... Hill has been on a tear (although it has been against lesser skilled women)

Barboza vs. Ige
Edson Barboza, DEC
edson looked great a weigh ins, didnt look too drained. This will be interesting, i definitely believe Ige in underrated but its hard to go against barboza in a stand up fight.

Anders vs. Jotko
Eryk Anders, DEC
Ya boi!

Song vs. Vera
Yadong Song, TKO, R3
cleanest boxing and hardest hitter in the division could likely go to Song. What people dont know is that he is also a black belt in jiu jitsu. Only question mark is if he can keep up with marlon's pace. We shall see

Holland vs. Hernandez
Kevin Holland, DEC
hernandez is a fun fighter to watch and I think it will bring out the best holland. I still remember that great fight holland had with thiago santos. Holland needs someone to push the pace for him to wake up

Casey vs. Borella
Mara Romero Borella, DEC
tough one to choose, will be super close but casey is moving up a division, which may be the deciding factor

Mayes vs. Nascimento
Rodrigo Nascimento, SUB, R1
Nascimento has fought so little over the past few years, its hard to tell what we will see! Mayes weakness is to submissions and I just cant overlook it

Barboza vs. Ige
Edson Barboza, TKO, R2
Barboza is the best fighter Ige has ever faced, by a considerable margin. The only question is : at featherweight, is Barboza the same fighter ? If so, Ige is in for a painfull night.

Chikadze vs. Rivera
Giga Chikadze, DEC
Chikadze has been a nice surprise thus far. He showed he can at the very least be a fun action fighter in the division. Davis was a tough fight, but he should win this without problems.

Overeem vs. Harris
Walt Harris, TKO, R2
Honestly, this fight was tricky to breakdown. Mainly because of the tragic circumstances surrounding Walt Harris. If that was taken outta the equation, Walt Harris would be the pick w/o a doubt. But there's sooo many unknowns, that I truly dont know how much that will hinder or motivate Walt. He can come out and trash Overeem like everyone else seems to be doing lately, or it could completely & understandably overwhelm him until he succumbs to the pressure. And even Overeem is in a weird situation. He knows that the world WANTS him to lose, because it'd make for an outstanding storyline. So really, my pick is Walt Harris. He's got all the tools to destroy Overeem. It's all going to come down to how well Harris can control & utilize his emotions.

Gadelha vs. Hill
Cláudia Gadelha, DEC
I still can't believe Angela Hill isn't ranked. But to be honest, and this is coming from a Gadelha fan, Angela Hill has as good a chance as any to not only get into those rankings, but to also jump ahead of a buncha fighters. I think this is a very winnable scrap for Angela. Especially if the same Angela Hill from the last 4-5 fights shows up. And to factor in how Gadelha almost always fades halfway thru, it could allow Hill to really piece up Claudia & take over the fight en route to a decision win. But....... Angela Hill still has below average TDD. And could prove to be absolutely horrendous. Even if Gadelha ends up fading, she should still be able to put in enough work early on, to take the win. Idk why ppl are so salty about this fight. I think it's a great fight.

Barboza vs. Ige
Edson Barboza, DEC
This is my pick for Fight Of The Night. Guaranteed carnage. One little tidbit for you.... Now think about this. Edson Barboza has ONLY 2 finishes dating back to November 2014. Just 2. And both came in his last 2 wins.

Anders vs. Jotko
Eryk Anders, TKO, R2
WHY AM I MAKING SUCH AN ABSURD PICK! I just have a gut feeling that Anders wrecks Jotko inside 2... **** me.

Song vs. Vera
Yadong Song, DEC
OUTSTANDING MATCHMAKING.... Seriously..
