Curtis Blaydes, TKO, R3
I followed my heart and picked Frankie Edgar. Not making that mistake again.
Minner vs. Rosa
Darrick Minner, SUB, R1
Going with my local guy here against a guy from ATT. Here's hoping.

Nate Landwehr, TKO, R2
I LOVE THIS FIGHT! Julian Erosa recently defeated an undefeated Sean Woodson, so he is a prospect not to be messed with. But Landwehr is also a tough prospect. Landwehr is a lot less vulnerable to losses. Erosa has lost a lot more fights and let’s not forget how much of an underdog he was.
Zahabi vs. Rodriguez
Aiemann Zahabi, SUB, R3
Three words. NOT A REGIONAL.
Imavov vs. Hawes
Nassourdine Imavov, DEC
Good dog pick. Also, Imavov is the younger and taller fighter.

Drakkar Klose, TKO, R3
Klose had an incredible near win over Beneil Dariush. He looks outmatched, sure, but he still is a strong fighter.
Skelly vs. Emmers
Jamall Emmers, DEC
————————
Minner vs. Rosa
Charles Rosa, SUB, R2
Rosa is a much better fighter. More experience, not too old of a fighter, and he comes from an amazing gym (American Top Team)
Trizano vs. Alves
Rafael Alves, SUB, R2
Trizano’s only loss is via sub. Alves is a sub specialist. Also, Trizano’s hype train ended. Alves’ hype train is starting up and probably won’t end for a while.
Spivak vs. Vanderaa
Sergey Spivak, SUB, R2
Come on, isn’t this obvious? Spivak is way more mainstream. Who in the absolute fricc is Jared Vanderaa? And, Spivak is an amazing prospect, and he’s one of the guys who sent Tai Tuivasa’s career into a downward spiral. Let’s look at Vanderaa’s wins, shall we? Harry Hunsucker. Okay, that’s a good win. Tony Lopez (64-31), ok not bad I guess. BUT WHO THE HECK IS RICKY MISHOLAS?! Everything is in line for Spivak.

Casey O'Neill, DEC
Ok, Dobson had that good win over Maria Agapova. But that was off of pure, sheer, luck. She got a scramble to the back and won with GNP. Casey O Neill has a good record and I think they are only giving Dobson this fight because of that one good win.
Wineland vs. Castañeda
John Castañeda, DEC
Why is Eddie Wineland the favorite? Because the legends are rising up? Eddie Wineland isn’t UFC bound anymore. Send him to ONE or Bellator.

Ketlen Vieira, DEC
What the heck is Yana’s style? In her last fight, she was mostly stifling her opponent against the fence. But recent fights have shown that she is a striker. So is she a wrestler with sloppy striking? Also, Vieira has all the keys to victory: good striking and superb wrestling.
Oleinik vs. Daukaus
Alexey Oleinik, SUB, R2
Look, Daukaus is the younger fighter and Olenik is old. However, Olenik is a very good ground fighter and he’d definitely beat Daukaus due to this. Now, Daukaus does train at Martinez BJJ, so maybe he will be able to cancel out Olenik but I think Olenik catches him in a submission.
Arlovski vs. Aspinall
Tom Aspinall, TKO, R2
Arlovski has that good win over Tanner Boser, but I think Boser won that fight. Aspinall is an amazing prospect right now and there is no way Arlovski will stop his hype train. So, I think Aspinall wins via smesh.
Gordon vs. Chavez
Jared Gordon, DEC
Chavez is a better fighter on paper but Jared Gordon is the younger fighter and trains at Renzo Gracie Academy.

Curtis Blaydes, TKO, R4
Wow, when this fight was first announced, I was hyped, and was pissed when it got canceled, and all I thought after that was why is this card here? Both of these guys have serious power in their hands. But there is one major difference: wrestling. Blaydes is a superb wrestler, while Lewis only relies on striking. I doubt Lewis will be able to stuff takedowns, so he’s gonna need to hope that Blaydes isn’t gonna try to wrestle so he can get a KO. Lewis does possess serious power, so if he keeps this fight on the feet, he can get that KO. Blaydes is just the more stylistic fighter, but Lewis could win if he can keep it on the feet. I think Blaydes wins by TKO by GNP in side control.

Andrei Arlovski, TKO, R1
I fully expect tom to win just willing Arlo to keep good defense and expose another untested guy.

I thought Boser was A LOCK vs Arlovsky....and I had big big big money on that fight parlayed with Romanov.
As soon as that decision hit I KNEW Arvolsky was gonna take it. That was disappointing. I hope Aspinall can let his hands go because Boser did nothing...I'm still wondering what happened there.

Vieira v Kunitskaya
Predictions: 4 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 300 Points | Tied for 2083rd
Vieira is big and strong for this weight class and has a bullying fight style to match. She’s fairly aggressive, throws strong one-twos, and has good takedowns in the clinch. This is dangerous for Kunitskaya who likes to clinch with her opponents and back them to the cage. While Yana should have the striking advantage, it’s going to be tough for her to implement her grinding style against the stronger and larger opponent. Vieira should be able to dominate the clinch war and would be just as happy if the fight went to the ground. That’s where Kunitskaya has shown her most glaring deficiencies, and I can’t imagine Vieira would want to keep the entire fight standing, especially after getting KO’d by Aldana. Vieira by late sub or dec.

Really disagree with that, Derrick Lewis has like 12 KO in the UFC and is the best underdogs or atlest top 5 best Underdog of all time and 6-1 as an underdog,, Anyone putting Blaydes in there parley is stupid because betting agaist Lewis at -400 or more is just dumb because Lewis can sleep anyone, Way to much risk for **** all value, Its a dog or pass fight
