Geoff Neal, TKO, R2
The only time Thompson struggles is against southpaws, and Neal is one of the best there is. I hope he gets a title shot soon
Pereira vs. Williams
Khaos Williams, TKO, R1
This fight has all the makings of an insane brawl, but so did Williams' last two fights and we saw how that went. I'm betting on more of the same, Pereira gets blasted while thinking about some cool **** to do.
Moraes vs. Font
Rob Font, DEC
I understand people picking Moraes but I think Font wins this. He's never been KO'd, he's bigger than Moraes, and he's more active with strikes and takedown attempts.
Tybura vs. Hardy
Marcin Tybura, DEC
I really hope with his experience, Tybura can turn this into a grinding slog that saps the KO power from Hardy. I want hardy to lose many boring fights and get cut because nobody likes him and the fan base never grows.
Robertson vs. Santos
Gillian Robertson, TKO, R2
I lost a good chunk of change when santos beat mccann so this is a hopeful, spiteful pick haha
Pettis vs. Morono
Anthony Pettis, DEC
Another hard one to call. I think Pettis gets it done with volume and accuracy, and he's only the second southpaw Morono has ever faced.
Muhammad vs. Lima
Belal Muhammad, DEC
I can't stand Belal, such an annoying *********. But he has the advantage in this fight everywhere except height and reach.
Kianzad vs. Eubanks
Sijara Eubanks, DEC
If I had to guess, I'd say this is the closest fight on the card. I expect a split decision with everyone shrugging
Roberson vs. Lungiambula
Dalcha Lungiambula, TKO, R1
Glad to see Lungiambula moving down to 185, 5'8" is not tall enough for LHW. This dude is a machine and I expect either a knockdown to GnP or a straight judo slam KO
Nchukwi vs. Pickett
Tafon Nchukwi, TKO, R2
What happens when Nchukwi can't get the KO? Does he gas out? We might find out eventually but I don't think this is it.
Glenn vs. Minus
Rick Glenn, DEC

Stephen Thompson, DEC
I have the impression the UFC tried to punish Thompson for not accepting the Chimaev fight... Fighting on the co-main under Chimaev-Edwards was a big insult, (more appropriate matchups would have been Edwards-Thompson in the main, then Neal-Chimaev in the co-main), and Neal is a very tough fight but with no name recognition, it's high risk low reward for Thompson... Well at least now that Edwards got COVID, he's the main event. Hope the last fight of the year is a fun one to watch, but win or lose Thompson almost always delivers !

First up let me just say I'm not a fan of Tybura. Always talking about he knows ' the secret' to winning against so and so. Frankly the only secret I can believe the fat **** is privy to is the Colonel's 11 herbs and spices. He should have enough to at least decision Hardy though who is genuinely terribad however. Only people Hardy can get through are his girlfriends and fat drunks.

Tyson's defense was basically that he had a huge **** but..well, babies come out of there. And **** has shown me things.

I think hardy will get lucky and clock ty, he has had 2 or 3 early stoppages already so expect another.
And some brainless fanboy will rave how great his striking is and how good he looked in tights etc.
I hate early stops, my biggest pet peeve with Herbal Dean.
