Poirier vs. Hooker
Dustin Poirier, DEC
Please don't upvote, i won't return it.

Gall vs. Perry
Mike Perry, TKO, R2
if mickey doesn't choke him out early then he's probably gonna be a punching bag and latory will become coach of the year.

Greene vs. Villante
Maurice Greene, TKO, R2
villante's hw move feels more like a career saver than a calculated plan. i doubt it fixed his cardio or his single strike style though and he's at a big reach disadvantage. mo survives an early clip and takes over after.

Allen vs. Daukaus
Brendan Allen, TKO, R2
daukaus could certainly snag something in a scramble, but otherwise this feels like a keep warm replacement fight for him. he handled guys like breese and holland so i have faith he can avoid the upset here.

Boser vs. Lins
Tanner Boser, DEC
might come down to who's busier. i'll go with lins just based off finishing potential.

Woodson vs. Erosa
Sean Woodson, TKO, R2
i'm expecting julian to be competitive due to experience gap, but for woodson to ultimately make use of his size advantages.

Pena vs. Worthy
Khama Worthy, DEC
i guess this will be my spicy pick of the night. 5/6 of worthy's losses are by ko, but slaying the ghost of wiman doesn't have my convinced that luis will do it too. he's had competitive fights with garcia and peterson, i think khama can put the pressure on and maybe even take pena down like nearly every other opponent of his.

Sato vs. Witt
Takashi Sato, TKO, R2
witt has been finished in all of his losses so i think he either gets it done in r1 (like we see short notice fighters try to) or he'll get pecked at while he fades.

Yu Frey vs. Hansen
Jinh Yu Frey, DEC
i guess people are seeing a bad stylistic matchup, but the underdog lines are making me look at the gap in competition. i think jinh is gonna come in focused and know that stuffing td's will get her opportunities standing.

Griffin vs. Zalal
Youssef Zalal, DEC
on paper this might be too much too soon for zalal. he looked great against lingo and the factory x product should surprise us standing a bit, but i think griffin has been written off unfairly since his ufc losses are understandable (ige and skelly). however i'm still gonna take zalal because i think griffin wants this fight on the ground but has a grand total of 1 td in 3 ufc fights.

Predictions: 9 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 550 Points   |   Tied for 5th with 3 others

Poirier vs. Hooker
Dustin Poirier, TKO, R4
I give Poirier the edge like pretty much everyone who isn’t a casual. The only X factor is the different mentalities of the fighters going into this. My money will be on Poirier smelling title shot roses because of the possibility that Gaethje can snag it from Khabib.

Gall vs. Perry
Mike Perry, TKO, R1
Talk about X factors. I think Mike Perry has intentionally killed every brain cell except for the ones about punching people in the face. He could definitely lose if he hasn’t been working on his cardio and Gall survives round one. But I’ll count on that Colby Covington bedroom cardio to keep him in it, or more likely a rd 1 KO.

Greene vs. Villante
Maurice Greene, TKO, R2
I mean, do I really care?

Allen vs. Daukaus
Brendan Allen, DEC
Daukaus is good man. Glad he’s getting his shot, but he won’t take this one imo.

Boser vs. Lins
Philipe Lins, TKO, R3
Again, do I really care?

Woodson vs. Erosa
Julian Erosa, SUB, R3
Hey, you might think I’m crazy. But I’m still less crazy than Mike Perry. I see Erosa having several paths to victory. Maybe I should get my eyes checked though.

Pena vs. Worthy
Khama Worthy, TKO, R2
Well, I already chose the biggest underdog on the card. Why not double down. I give Pena the edge in all departments but power. And I think Khama can land the shot, otherwise that third round is gonna be rough for him.

Sato vs. Witt
Takashi Sato, DEC
I think Witt can go the same route as Belal if his cardio is on. But I’ll give the edge to Sato, I expect to see his Judo on display in this fight to counter some of the wrestling of Witt.

Yu Frey vs. Hansen
Kay Hansen, DEC
Gotta go with the bigger younger girl. I actually enjoyed watching both of these girls’ fights when looking at tape. Glad to have potential sacrifices to Queen Valentina.

Griffin vs. Zalal
Youssef Zalal, DEC
I’ve seen Griffin fight in the local scene. How he got signed to the UFC is beyond me. Despite being a Muay Thai camp, Factory X actually has better BJJ than roufussports fighters on average. Hoped he can survive the subs.

Poirier vs. Hooker
Dustin Poirier, TKO, R4
Think people are disrespecting Hooker because he has a decent chance if he land leg kick and knees and we all know Eugene is coming up with a gameplan, But I think Dustin will win because with his boxing and fun fact Porrier never lost 2 in a row so u know he not the type of guy to give up on his themselves

Gall vs. Perry
Mike Perry, TKO, R1
Hahaha Fatality as old Bruce use to say right

Greene vs. Villante
Gian Villante, TKO, R1
Bum Heavyweight vs Bum Lightweight so 50 50 so pick the lightheavyweight because smaller guy usualy beat the bigger guy if the size diffrence isn't so big

Allen vs. Daukaus
Brendan Allen, TKO, R2
Think this fight be closer then people think because Daukaus is pretty good submession guy fighting good people on the reginal scean. Allen Beat Holland great win but a bit of a douch and Tom Bresse who don't give a **** anymore , Think the striking will be the facter in this equation

Boser vs. Lins
Philipe Lins, DEC
Don't care because heavyweight fight that go to decsion suck donkey ball usualy, picking the favorite

Woodson vs. Erosa
Sean Woodson, TKO, R3
Think Woodson is a bit overated and get smashed by the first wresler he fight he get hump into submesion but Erosa a bum and he get through him

Pena vs. Worthy
Luis Pena, DEC
Violent Bob Ross is going to become Horny Bob Ross and hump some legs of Worthy into he get his Hand raise

Sato vs. Witt
Takashi Sato, TKO, R3
Think Most FIghter UFC sign latleu has been bum so picking Sato

Yu Frey vs. Hansen
Kay Hansen, DEC
Don't really Know because I rather have Battery Cables attach to my Nut than watch Invicta , Picking Hanson Because she Bigger, Younger and more Importely not Hot as ****

Griffin vs. Zalal
Yuseff Zalal,TKO RD1
Jordan Griffin is a good fight with 2 big problem fight Iq problem and easy to wrestle but Zalal is not going to hump his legs because he a striker under Badr Hari, Think He Ko him

Everything about this card feels too easy to predict. I'm going with Erosa by sub and Hooker by TKO. If I'm wrong, well, it wouldn't be the first time or last time lol

Just ugh. Erosa should not be this big of a dog but who really cares.

Not a lot of confidence in either guy but I'll give the edge to the guy who went the distance with Ige
