I think OSP missing weight is more strategic than negligence, I doubt OSP believes in Hill’s ground game, especially with Hill still being wet behind the ears in MMA. I’m seeing OSP’s gameplan being to wrestle Hill right out the gate, I don’t see him planning to stand toe-toe with a young buck like Hill

Hermansson vs. Vettori
Jack Hermansson, TKO, R4
This is a really tall order for Vettori to fight a 5 round main event against the Joker on short notice. I think Hermansson has fought the tougher competition on the aggregate, has the grappling and conditioning advantages and his top game is flat out scary. Gotta go with the Joker to get it done in the championship rounds.

St. Preux vs. Hill
Jamahal Hill, TKO, R3
OSP missing weight for the first time in the UFC is a huge red flag for me. I think his best path to victory here is a wrestling heavy game plan, which he hasnt shown much of in the past in the UFC. That combined with the fact he missed weight and may gas early really puts me on Hill here. He is the busier striker and I think he has the advantage if this fight plays out on the feet.

Benítez vs. Jaynes
Justin Jaynes, DEC
I'm picking with my heart here. Baller move for Jaynes to have his Dad in his corner one last time. I see a path to victory for Jaynes if he goes with his wrestling. Benitez has been taken down on 18 of the 41 attempts against him in the UFC. That isnt going to be good enough if Jaynes puts Benitez TD defense to the test. Lets go Justin! Prayers go out for your Dad.

Santos vs. De La Rosa
Taila Santos, DEC
Which Talia shows up tonight? The one that looked turrible against Borella or the killer who dismantled McCann? If its the latter she easily gets the job done vs De La Rosa. If not.... Montana could catch her with a submission or use her wrestling and clinch game to eek out a win. I wouldnt bet this one at all simply because Santos has shown to be totally unreliable. No way to ignore the fact that 2 fights ago she lost to Borella. The stench of that performance will stay with her for a while.

Dolidze vs. Allan
Roman Dolidze, TKO, R1
I have this down as my "Ass Shaving of the Night" Dolidze is better everywhere. He is the safest bet on the card for the money. Allan coming off the PED suspension and not looking that great on the scales only made me more confident in Dolidze.

Evloev vs. Landwehr
Movsar Evloev, DEC
I'm not counting Landwehr out. Dude is a scrapper and maybe his antics will get to Evloev, however, Evloev is -650 for a reason. I think he finds a way to get the job done.

Smolka vs. Quiñonez
Jose Alberto Quiñonez, DEC
I wouldnt touch this fight with a 10 foot pole from a betting perspective. Smolka and Quinonez have 12 UFC wins combined between them. Not one of those wins is against a decent opponent. Both of these guys are the definition of a can crusher. I'm going with the underdog here because Smolka had weight cutting issues the last time so maybe he wont be at his best here. Neither of these guys is trustworthy though so I'll pick the underdog.

Wiman vs. Leavitt
Jordan Leavitt, DEC
For the love of God, cut Matt Wiman already. There are no winners in this fight, the fans, every single one of us, lose by being subjected to this. Line is way too wide, dont bet it. Cut Wiman already.

Flick vs. Durden
Jimmy Flick, SUB, R2
I feel as if Durden is at his best when he can use his wrestling to control fights. That wont work against Flick. Dude's Jiu Jitsu is so agressive if it goes to the ground Durden will be playing defense the entire time. Flick is very chinny but Im just not convinced Durden is the type of fighter who can take advantage of that before the fight goes to the ground and it's in Flicks world. I think Flick eventually finds a choke sometime after the 1st round.

Jackson vs. Topuria
Ilia Topuria, DEC
Topuria looked so good in his UFC debut. He won as the underdog and beat a really good young fighter in Zalal. Both of these guys are top notch grapplers and I'm excited to see this fight go to the ground and watch these guys do their thing. I think Jackson can definitely catch Topuria if he isnt careful, however, I still think Topuria gets the job done. Line feels a bit juiced to me though.

Villante vs. Collier
Gian Villante, TKO, R2
Dumpster fire of the night. I cant believe how fat Collier has gotten. He was absolutely ripped as a middleweight and now he looks like the before photo on a weight watchers commercial. Villante looked decent in his last fight against a much tougher opponent and probably would have won a decision if he hadnt have gassed himself out going for the finish in the 3rd. I cant see Collier pulling this one out after how awful he looked last time.

Hermansson vs. Vettori
Jack Hermansson, SUB, R3
I'm a little confused by the odds on this one with Vettori being fave. Vettori is solid. He's just one of them guys that's decent everywhere, but not great at much. But solid. Like a gatekeeper almost. Your standard ranked 15-25 guy. In my opinion. Hermansson on the other hand. Is great in a few areas, and that should show through in this fight. He's just got more tools in the toolbox and those tools are sharper and cleaner than Vettori's. Should still be a fun scrap.

St. Preux vs. Hill
Jamahal Hill, TKO, R2
I feel for OSP. NEVER missed weight in 39 fights, but misses the mark by a pound and a half for his 40th fight. Which is not a good sign for the obnoxiously hot and cold OSP. I mean, the guy can't string a streak together to save his life, atleast not with wins. He's 7-8 over his last 15, just flip-flopping wins with losses every fight. Maybe that'll bode well for Hill. Who if I had to have a knock on him, it's that he's content with decisions. I think if I can remeber, he's only finished like 2-3 fights. All within the last 4 or 5 fights. If OSP is already depleted like I believe he is, then he should be easier to put away. In theory atleast.

Benítez vs. Jaynes
Justin Jaynes, TKO, R2
Again. A little confused by the odds.... Benitez a -225 fave??? I think this fight is about even. And according to TAP, ya'll feel the same. Split 52-48, in favor of Jaynes.

Dolidze vs. Allan
Roman Dolidze, TKO, R1
Dolidze is the definition of a scary ******* man. I'd run and scream like a pansy if I ever ended up face to face with this dude. Poor John Allan.

Evloev vs. Landwehr
Movsar Evloev, DEC
I can't be the ONLY ************ who views THIS FIGHT as the main event. Whatta ******* banger. Out-*******-standing matchmaking here. Idk how the **** these guys haven't faced each other yet, especially back in M-1. Pretty sure they were both on the M-1 Roster at the same time. Gotta say. I feel guilty for not picking Landwehr.

Smolka vs. Quiñonez
Louis Smolka, DEC
I don't know. Nathaniel Wood submitted Quinonez. Smolka has decent ground game as well. There's just something about Smolka that's always set me off. I can't even tell you what it is. But I don't like him. Just one of them dudes I guess.

Wiman vs. Leavitt
Jordan Leavitt, SUB, R1
Matt Wiman should not be fighting in the UFC. It makes no sense to me, especially when they cut guys who are better across the board. "Yeah, lets cut Yoel Romero, but we're gonna let Matt Wiman continue to look bad for the world to see."
