Militant New Predictions

Predictions: 4 of 4 Winners, 3 Perfect, 275 Points   |   Tied for 145th

Elder vs. Gennrich
I am with Evan Elder at -290. He has an amazing knife hand block. Elder isn't about to lock the dark horse.

McKenzie vs. Eliziário
I can't get enough of Aaron McKenzie at -220. He has a ruthless full guard and a voluptuous double knife hand block. McKenzie might fuel the dissentient.

Lugo vs. Levy
I select Natan Levy at -335. He has a perfect clinch. Levy can clinch the humiliating defeat.

Willis vs. de Jesus
I choose Jaleel Willis at -135. He has a villainous dim mak and a kinky spinning back elbow. Willis isn't about to nullify the natural order.

Well Kegan Gennrich was certainly a step up for Evan Elder, who before the fight had been hyped up to be a great finisher... Expected a little more from Elder, but overall I think Elder should Win this one... Maybe the extra length, range and determination of Gennrich was the reason Elder didn't get the finish. A successful LFA debut for Evan Elder, decent performance 🤔🥊👊👍

This fight between Levy and Lugo is so close, especially if the 2nd Round was scored 10 - 8 to Lugo.... Did anyone back the draw?? 🤔👊🥊👍

A great competitive fight....Lugo had some decent Boxing to his striking arsenal and Levy is a decent grappler, but as he steps up levels, he needs to work further on finding the way to finish his opponent, whether via ground and pound, or setting up the submission attempts... Both guys are decent young MMA fighters 🤔👊🥊👍

Levy was fortunate to pick up the Win there... A draw would have been a fair result after what happened in Round 2.... He did extremely well working off pure instinct to recover his situation in that frantic minute and a half of Round 2...A great competitive fight...Excellent Wrestling from Levy...A very good Win on Levy's record against a tough opponent! 🤔🥊👊👍

What a great fight and just in 1 Round...Aaron McKenzie dug really deep and pulled it out of the bag against a really good fighter in Eliziario, who must be gutted that he couldn't put McKenzie away... McKenzie is so pumped, what a fantastic finish, to put Eliziario away with the rear naked choke 🤔🥊👊👍

Well I have the Main Event 19 - 19 after 2 Rounds... I feel that De Jesus would be wise to start trying to take this fight to the ground, as Willis is an excellent counter puncher and is a little bit sharper striker than De Jesus. Time to change levels 🤔🥊👊👍
