Predictions: 5 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 325 Points | Tied for 2040th
Khama Worthy, TKO, R1
I think this is a coin flip round one fight. Khama’s chin is definitely better at 155, but you’re not surviving the type of power either of these guys throw unless you're a black belt in chinjutsu. I caught Khama at 2.42 which is a steal, to be fair if it had been Ottman at those odds I’d take the shot too. Potential KO of the night.
Barberena vs. Ivy
Anthony Ivy, TKO, R1
This is my second punt bet prior to weigh ins. I think Barberena might have been better than Ivy two KOs and a back surgery ago. Odds are just too good to pass IMO, if Bryan comes back in great shape then I may eat my words. But even a prime Bryan I’d still only bet him at -200 not the ridiculously inflated odds he’s at now.

HERMAN v RODRIGUEZ
Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 555 Points | 103rd Place
Herman will be able to get Rodriguez to the ground. You say Herman is old and has bad cardio. Look at Rodriguez' fight against Clark. Rodriguez has no gas either. His cardio is horrible.
After you look at how Rodriguez struggles against good wrestlers and has no cardio, he only can win via KO. Except Herman was last stopped early 5 fights and 4 years ago. Don't count on Rodriguez winning by ko.
I like Herman in a decision

If turds could procreate, I would still assume this fight has a higher probability of ensuing ******ness than if a heavily pregnant mother turd expectant on a Monday was due to deliver a baby turd on a Wednesday.
You might be perplexed as to why this fight was ever booked. This is understandable. It's ****-charge-on-a-gift-voucher-at-the-brothel ******** prima facie, and confusion is warranted. But not unlike being befuddled as to why a cyclist would choose to drink an iced coffee through their nose at an al fresco cafe. the penny drops when you see that although this person is indeed wearing a helmet, they in fact do not own a bicycle, they are wearing a bib, and are accompanied by a woman wearing a starched blue collared shirt and a laminated ID tag.
Allow me to help the jigsaw fall into place:
Sean Shelby is like the anonymous donor of dirty, disposable picnicware haphazardly bagged and propped against the front of a charity collection bin. In his heart of hearts, he knows nobody--not even a starving Rwandan--wants/and or needs it, and what he has done is objectively illegal dumping created by the need to dispose of something he cannot fit in the garbage.
He is not quite audacious enough, or otherwise has exactly enough conscience to not deposit it directly, but in order to legitimate the act in the court of public opinion--that is the conceit to convince others that he at least believed his contribution to be sensible and considered, he has not hidden it behind the bin itself, which would clearly be the act of a guilty man. If anyone asks, he will simply say 'I wasn't sure'.
Moving on to the breakdown;
Modaferri looks and fights like she should be reading from a pop up book to children in a public library. Lee is pretty standard white trash. Wouldn't surprise me if she lets her Nazi boyfriend lick sweet baby ray's off her pecs while she rides an empty and upended bottle of bud light duct taped to a bedpost while Number of the beast plays in the background.
Lee by dec. She'll trot around the cage landing pitter patter on Roxy the blind dinosaur and probably wins by close UD or split. Or said dinosaur gets the TD and thrills everybody to bits with mongoloid-esque hammerfists for 3 1/2 minutes of every round.

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 0 Perfect, 380 Points | Tied for 1371st
Michelle Waterson, SUB, R3
Tricky not to go with the hype of Hill but Waterson is very capable on her feet and can easily bring it down to the ground if she needs to.
Worthy vs. Azaitar
Khama Worthy, TKO, R1
Not seen a lot of these guys but both bring sharp tools to the octagon. Worthy just has that huge self-belief (ticks Bisping's box...) and seems like the stronger guy. Azaiter only fought Pakalan too who, let's be fair, isn't THAT good. (Coming from someone whose girlfriend is Finnish! No hate.)
Lee vs. Modafferi
Andrea Lee, TKO, R1
I just think Andrea Lee is actually very good and game. Been unlucky in her last couple of fights but she's a top contender. Modafferi has just been coasting and not showing much but pinning down Maycee Barber. Tempted for a decision but Lee has to up her game to stand out again and her striking is good enough to knock Roxanne out.
Quarantillo vs. Nelson
Billy Quarantillo, SUB, R2
Quarantillo is so so good. Honestly, Spike Carlyle is a freaking beast and he managed to hang with him despite whoever you think should've won that fight. I'm telling you, Spike is an incredible fighter so for Billy to beat him is huge and I have no doubt Billy will win this fight against Nelson who has a good couple of wins, but Billy really is championship material and watch his space.
Herman vs. Rodriguez
Mike Rodriguez, TKO, R1
Mike Rodrigues is smarter, quicker, more technical - as long as he doesn't see Ed Herman as a big scary guy, he'll be fine. He's calculated and follows his game plan (so we've seen so far anyway). Could go round 2 but "Slow" works quick.
Barberena vs. Ivy
Bryan Barberena, TKO, R2
Bam Bam, hung in there with Luque so pretty sure this'll be a doddle. Haven't seen much from Ivy in the UFC. Just got caught off-guard but he's decent. Just a bit too much of a step up at this point.
Roberts vs. Frevola
Matt Frevola, DEC
Fan of these 2. Just think Frevola realises the danger and is smart enough to stick to his game plan with that being plan A, B and C, if he needs to take it to those places. If they were both going for the finish then Roosevelt would have this. Frevola just too smart for that.
Mazo vs. Kish
Sabina Mazo, SUB, R2
Mazo is gonna wanna stand and bang and will be successful but that'll crumble Kish to the floor where Mazo will finish by submission. Kish is strong though so wouldn't be surprised if she drew it out to a decision.
Patrick vs. Green
Bobby Green, TKO, R3
Green is fresh, experienced and just better. Can take a punch too. Been a while since we've seen Patrick too so that'll probably play a factor along with no audience. This one doesn't really make sense for Bobby either but he just loves to fight! He'll piece Allan up until he finishes him at the end.
Avila vs. Eubanks
Julia Avila, TKO, R2
Goodbye Sarge. This is kind of a similar situation to Agapova vs Dobson. You'd expect Avila to run through Eubanks aaaaaand I still think that's gonna happen. Just hope Avila doesn't take this as too easy. Because it's not.

Alexander Romanov, TKO, R1
What? This is new. Ok, I'm going with Romanov. Not much to go on and I thought Marcos De Lima would've beat Romanov in their cancelled bout but he gets this one. Fellow podgy fella Martinez is gonna be brutally KO'd.
Weaver vs. Turner
Jalin Turner, TKO, R2
Another new one! Take it Weaver's fight this weekend has been cancelled then... There's not many people I would bet against when fighting Brok, and that's not gonna change here. He's really not that good and has been schooled in his last 2 fights. Not a lot of power either. Whereas Jalin is actually pretty good so looking forward to seeing a beating.

Predictions: 5 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 325 Points | Tied for 2040th
Angela Hill, TKO, R4
It’s pretty easy to justify my pick when the only reason people are picking Waterson is by sub. Angela Hill’s ground game doesn’t suck that much anymore? If anything she’s above average in WMMA now. Sure she had her rough spots when she came into MMA with just a Muay Thai background, but what do you expect? I think Hill puts on a clinic, but Waterson is too durable to get finished early, so 3rd and beyond TKO or decision for Hill.
Avila vs. Eubanks
Julia Avila, DEC
Avila wins anyway she wants, but not in the first.
Romanov vs. Martinez
Alexander Romanov, TKO, R1
I picked him against De Lima and this guy looks like he’s a much softer fighter than DeLima. I didn’t watch any full fights, but I caught some YouTube highlights and his highlights look so average to me. I wanna see a heavyweight come out the and knock chins into the stands or at least mortar bodies into the canvas. I expect the latter from Romanov here. 1st round G&P baby.
Weaver vs. Turner
Jalin Turner, TKO, R2
No odds out there on this one. But they are going to be ridiculous. I’ll drop 5 units on Turner if I can get him where Camcho’s line was at (1.4ish). The only way weaver was going to win was by chin checking Camacho, who is a brawler, so it could absolutely happen. Now, Turner who is the definition of a rangy pot-shot striker is probably going to walk away with this. I’m glad Weaver is at a good gym now, and maybe he’ll work his way back to the big show a’la Julian Erosa, but it’s just too little too late I believe. You should have gotten good before you got to the UFC. Jalin Turner by decision or KO if he catches Weaver walking onto a stiff cross/knee

Alexander Romanov, TKO, R1
Just watched Martinez's last fight on Youtube. He had a hard time dealing with the clinch work of a 47 year old "Shrek" with heavily taped up knees, and only won after the referee separated them from the fence for inactivity since he couldn't get away. Romanov is gonna pile drive this dude's head into the canvas within 30 seconds of the opening bell and pound him out if the slam doesn't KO him on impact.
