This is brutal beat for this card, which was already looking thin. Losing Albazi and Blaydes, canceling the two best fights... yeesh. I don't think Smith-Clark is good enough to even be a co-main. 

Y'all are really underselling Curtis Blaydes because he gassed in an otherwise record breaking wrestling performance. How many heavyweights have the stamina to have Blaydes' output for 5 rounds? I think he's clearly the 3rd best in the division, and gets a weirdly negative reaction. People just don't like wrestlers. The second Usman gasses in a fight and doesn't look so dominant, people are gonna go after him.

Smith vs. Clark
Devin Clark, DEC
Surprised to see Anthony Smith 74% picked to win. Yes, huge step up for Clark, but a great matchup. Clark's 88% ground strike accuracy is 2nd in all of UFC, Smith has eaten 4th most ground strikes in history. Clark's win condition is his strength, and Smith's weakness, and I don't think Lionheart is hitting Clark any harder than Menifield tried to.

Baeza vs. Sato
Miguel Baeza, TKO, R1
This guy is scary. Sato takes too much damage for someone facing Baeza's power, and we haven't seen him against equal competition in nearly 2 years. This is a spot in the rankings in Baeza delivers in big time fashion.

Parisian vs. Porter
Josh Parisian, TKO, R1
I am terrified of this fight. All of you picking Parisian doesn't help. Porter hits hard and finishes too, but Parisian appears to be the better athlete and have the better fundamentals. Wish I could get under 1 round.

Algeo vs. Carlyle
Spike Carlyle, DEC
Carlyle starts strong out of the gate, nearly gets Algeo out of there, and somehow finds a way to fade to a point where he almost loses the fight. Carlyle needs to put Algeo away if he wants to make big time headway at 145. Don't think he does.

Evans-Smith vs. Dumont
Ashlee Evans-Smith, DEC
Sarah Moras loss was ugly, but other AES opponents are very strong. She actually pushes pace well and is good with volume on the feet. Maybe Dumont ends up too big and strong and lays on AES for the fight, but if not, Evans-Smith should have her way striking. Dumont missing weight off this layoff doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

Kamaka III vs. Pearce
Jonathan Pearce, DEC
Don't get the Kamaka love here at all. He's in trouble. Pearce is much, much larger and the busier man. Tony Kelley is not a magician on the feet and landed at will. Kamaka normally can wrestle away danger, but is Pearce just simply too strong? All value on betting/fantasy with JSP.

Day vs. dos Santos
Martin Day, DEC
Dos Santos has some of the worst striking stats I've seen. -2.53 SSR and 26% striking accuracy. Marty Day actually has outstruck a lot of quality opponents and just hasn't snagged the dub. He will Saturday.

Ostovich vs. Mazany
Gina Mazany, DEC
Serious question--is Ostovich's bust hurting her MMA career? She's giving up huge size to Mazany here, and Mazany seemed to have an easier cut. Getting subbed by PVZ looks worse by the second, and I bet Mazany wishes she had the Avila fight back. Solid wrestling fundamentals and could have gassed Avila. Gets back in the W column here.

Mudaerji vs. Gordon
Malcolm Gordon, SUB, R1
Bro...we're handing Sumuadejri this win off 2 years with nothing but a Soukamtath decision? Gordon is a black belt, just not on the scary level Albazi is. Albazi will be ranked in this division before too long. Think it's loss #5 by submission for Su.

Maness vs. Sanders
Luke Sanders, TKO, R3
Sanders' chin holds up, he will piece Maness up. Think there's value with +112 to finish inside the distance given how badly a mismatch this is striking, both in terms of Luke's skill and Maness's chin. Interested to see, I'll go with Sanders.

Wellll, I'm not impressed with Maness, and Sanders likes to throw rounds away. I'll take Sanders. Wouldn't be surprised if he drops another decision.

@Stephen Greg sanctions posts which are expressions of gratitude about having gotten away with literal **** and murder but suspends a guy for calling him 'dirt'.

That it just spiteful, vindictive demagoguery. I am rapidly losing respect for him. I don't agree with Johnny's opinion on the Rona broadly speaking but he should never have been suspended for holding it, and he sure as **** didn't earn his latest term in the time out corner.

This site's best years are done. I will miss some of the posters, but I will not miss it.

Mudaerji vs. Gordon
Su Mudaerji, DEC
Leaning towards Mudaerji. But, I think the line is far too wide. Is it because Su is training with legit folks and Gordon's ufc debut ended in tapping to his own work? Strange.......t

Ostovich vs. Mazany
Rachael Ostovich, DEC
Okay, look. Maybe Mazany has made improvments. But I'd like to see them first before I can back her. Another line a bit wide for me. I'll take Rachael. She's not impressive either, but boy, she can bring heat. Heat from Hawaii.

What’s up with this Su guy? Why is the majority on board for him to win tomorrow? I’ll admit I’ve never seen him fight.

Smith vs. Clark
Anthony Smith, SUB, R3
Anthony Smith has had a rough year due to the two beatings vs. Rakic and Glover, but Devin Clark is 0-3 against real competition in the LHW Division (Spann, Rakic and Blachowicz Finish Him).

Baeza vs. Sato
Takashi Sato, TKO, R1
The mouth guard saved Baeza from being knocked out by Matt Brown, Sato is an experienced fighter and Baeza is still green.

Parisian vs. Porter
Josh Parisian, TKO, R1
Parisian will demolish Porter in the first minute of the fight.

Algeo vs. Carlyle
Bill Algeo, DEC
People sleep on Algeo, Lamas could only successfully complete the takedown in the last round. If Algeo keeps the fight standing he ensures the Unanimous Decision

Evans-Smith vs. Dumont
Norma Dumont, DEC
Dumont looked good before KO vs. Megan Anderson (Current Women's Featherweight Title Contender). Evans-Smith in 4 years only beat Macedo and Rawlings (3-8 combined record in UFC). Taking into account the weight advantage, I think Norma Dumont could pull the upset.

Ostovich vs. Mazany
Gina Mazany, DEC
Only a Hail Mary Ambar could save Ostovich. I will play the Mystic Mac game: Ostovich will be released after the defeat and will end on OnlyFans.com

Maness vs. Sanders
Luke Sanders, DEC
Luke Sanders is very experienced and good on his feet, instead Maness got stuck in the clinch on his UFC debut.

@Hippie  - yeah this card has become hott garbage !!!   Have you ever smelled hott garbage ? 
It smells like this card... now I sound like Fishrat. LOL !!!! 

But seriously this card is like whoever doesnt win -- has potential of getting cut by UFC.  I say potential because sometimes the UFC will keep fighters who have 4 losses in a row and even sign them to a new contract.

@tap867 -  what type of heat are you talking about ?  Sounds like your nether regions are heating up... take a cold shower !!!  lol


Rachel Ostovich is hott body  but butter face.  Sorry guys thats my opinion.   She looks like a cartoon character. I am sure she had lip injections.  She is mostly an instagram model than a fighter.  If she trained really hard she could finish a bunch of girls to get easily top 10 in WMMA  weight division-- but it takes serious commitment.

Also......its going to be real rough poster sales on this one over at the UFC store. Shame this will be clarks only ufc main...only 1 day notice of it being changed to 5 rounds against a guy with championship round experience....no poster or main event fight week treatment and even tapology could care less about changing the blaydes vs lewis photo.
