Absolutely no way Mudaerji is 5 foot 8. Song Yadong is 5 foot 8 and Malcom his last opponent was 5 foot 7. Mudaerji is much taller than both of them. Hes really tall for the flyweight division, excited to see him fight tougher opponents after Adashev.

@Tiekoen
i'm not a statistician, but they are valuable in predicting fights.
I am not a fighter, therefore I cannot speak on fighting as if I'm correct.
But what I can say is...the only fight you got correct on the main card was Carlos Condit.
The last PPV card....you only got swanson correct on that entire card lol
I really don't care what you say as a fighter because it's clear your picks are rubbish.
but you can provide good insight and a more educated opinion than myself.
I don't need a helmet....because we're not sparring,
but you definitely need a thinking cap to re-evaluate your fight picks next time

Alves vs. Lazzez
Warlley Alves, SUB, R2
Awful lot of hype for 1 win over a guy who went on to be KO'd in 30 seconds in his next fight. Alves is WAYYYY more experienced and skilled.
Villanueva vs. Moreira
Vinicius Moreira, SUB, R2
Wowzers! 😬😬😬
Lungiambula vs. Perez
Markus Perez, SUB, R2
Another Fight I do not understand the HUGE confidence in 1 guy??? Have you seen Lungiambula fight???? This another 50/50 fight that Tapology has as a 90/10. Weird?!
Nurmagomedov vs. Morozov
Sergey Morozov, TKO, R3
Sergey Morozov is a very good fighter. By far and away the best Nurmagomedov has ever faced. He's a defending M-1 Champ. People definitely picking based on the last name. I'll just give you this to think about. Remember Khabib other cousin Abubaker??? This a 50/50 fight, maybe 60/40 but Tapology has it 90/10 because of a name! Imma take Morozov because I love seeing undeserved hype get smushed!!!

I don't think Mounir showed off much talent against Al Hassan besides sharp knees. he might be able to easily get taken down and subbed
Warrley Alves is a strong and proven grappler
...BUT IF YOU CAN GET KO'D BY THE JAMES KRAUSE🤣
Seeing Di Chirico win makes me believe Vinicius will win by emphatic submission in the first round so that everyone forgets his most terrible losses.
A month ago, I had Morozov by handily decision and I want to agree with you on Morozov but i don't think he can take hard shots at all.
I think Umar uses his signature question mark kick and is the new hype train
I don't understand how everybody is confident in Dalcha...unless everybody just really dislikes Maluko

Su Mardji is good because he tall, Great thinking!!!!. Struve is 10 year underfeted heavyweight champ because he 7 foot tall. But for real tho. He not good at all, He never fought anyone good and anyone who lose to Lois Smolka ain't getting far in the UFC. The UFC know this because they gave him Zaruck Adashiv and not Scnell or Nam who is UFC level and is fighting on this card
People are hopping on a train, because he can ko no hopers, and that train gonna get derailed in the next fight when he fight someone UFC level

I wasn't replying to your comment, I was more referring to the fact that the UFC had his height wrong. I didn't even read your comment before I posted that nor did I say Su Mudaerji was good.

I think Su Muderji is a top level striker at 125 lb division, and not just because he has excessive reach.
I think the UFC is setting up a China card real soon and/or Schnell vs Muderji in the near future as a 125 showcasing for a new contender. Su was a very random late replacement.
Kenan Song, Jingliang li, Xiaonan Yan, Weill Zhang, Danaa Batgerel are all off solid wins and Heili Alateng needs a rebound win.

Su Mudaerji I do think is better than some people at the top 15 right now such as Amir Albazi, so it will be interesting to see how it develops. Flyweight is an extremely small weight class as with like 20 something fighters, so I do think his next fight should be against someone ranked as Albazi got into the ranking with 1 fight against Malcom Gordon who Mudaerji also defeated. He's also very young and is just only improving.

Bruh, we both had 6/10 for the last event. I don’t know what superiority complex you’re trying to flex, but you’re making all the wrong arguments. Saying my picks are rubbish, which isn’t wrong, when I have a better overall pick rate than you is a little awkward for a comeback. Like just stop saying **** that is blatantly and provably false, otherwise don’t be surprised when someone calls you up with the facts.
Davis can win the fight and I won’t be surprised, but he is not more experienced nor has he fought better people than Jones (aside from getting clapped by Sodiq) Those are the facts.

@bluedash Don't want to be the guy who call UFC guy ***** because anyone who step in the cage is tougher then me but Malcoum Gordon either gave up or the fight was fake because he just fell over 2 secound after he got hit, Probley the Knock out that piss me off most ever because his one of the worst fighter I ever seen in the UFC, And they could sigh ton of way better fighters like one of the greatest in DJ , Kyoji or any other of the flyweight that in other top promotion
Mardji is gonna be another Salty Sean O'malegs, He's way to skinny and he get injured as his about 6 foot at flyweight, I can't back a guy who the UFC give them non UFC guy just to make them look good because any fighter who does thing in the UFC don't get can after can, And the one who do, Usualy get they confendect raised just to get they ass kick by anyone with any skill. Just like Buckley a few day ago
Btw Sorry for being a ****, I thoght you were talking to me

Villanueva vs. Moreira
Vinicius Moreira, SUB, R1
This will go one of two ways IMO, Ike is gonna get a KO or Moreira is gonna get a TD and submission. I lean towards Moreira cause his chin isn't glass as far as I can tell and I give him the speed advantage.
Murphy vs. Andrade
Lerone Murphy, TKO, R2
Lerone Murphy is gonna win. Lock it in, probably a finish, but I wouldn't be surprised if this goes to the judges with at least one 10-8 either considering the Andrade is tough. But the stats are all in Lerone's favor across the board. It doesn't get any cleaner on paper.
Akhmedov vs. Breese
Tom Breese, DEC
Hardest fight to pick from a betting perspective, my gut leans towards Breese but the value is on Akhmedov. About as close to a pick as you can get. What I can say though is that when the door closes it won't look that way, either Breese won't be able to keep Omari off his legs or Breese will piece Akhmedov up to a finish.
Simón vs. Pirrello
Ricky Simón, DEC
Takedown, takedown, takedown, takedown. annnnnnnnnd one more takedown.
Nurmagomedov vs. Morozov
Sergey Morozov, DEC
The odds once again prohibit me from making the safe pick. Sergey is gonna make this a lot closer fight than people think, he's good and he's really been tested in his fights. Man isn't a quitter from what I've seen and he's fought guys similar to Umar, if not quite as skilled.

Chiesa vs. Magny
Neil Magny, DEC
Two durable men with no KO power. Should be Magny decision. His wrestling and sub grappling defense should help him in this fight.
Alves vs. Lazzez
Mounir Lazzez, TKO, R2
Lazzez will get stoppage.
Villanueva vs. Moreira
Ike Villanueva, TKO, R1
Moreira likes to pressure fights against the cage and work take downs. When he fails he gets ko'd . Seems to be the trend for his losses.
Modafferi vs. Araujo
Viviane Araujo, DEC
I hate roxanne so I always bet/root against her.
Nam vs. Schnell
Tyson Nam, TKO, R1
Schnell likes to bang as well but his chin doesn't hold up very well. If he can't work take downs he's ****** unless he just overwhelms Nam with volume to a decision.
Murphy vs. Andrade
Lerone Murphy, TKO, R2
Murphy is ****** looking ready from his IG picks. I think his reach advantage serves him well this fight.
Akhmedov vs. Breese
Tom Breese, TKO, R3
So many unknowns from breeze recently about his cardio and going on later in fights. I saw Akhmedov get gassed vs a past his prime weidman. So I'm leaning Breese.
Simón vs. Pirrello
Ricky Simón, SUB, R2
leaning simon by sub
Mudaerji vs. Adashev

Muda****a by ko.
Lungiambula vs. Perez

Rivera vs. Figueiredo
Jerome Rivera, DEC
Rivera decision. Fig might be very durable and not be hurt by anything. Not sure Fig has great fight IQ and his volume outputs slows down noticeably as fight goes further.

Feels to me like Magny is going to keep Chiesa at the end of his punches the whole fight. Stuff takedowns and use footwork and just box his ears off with long volume punches. Chiesa is gonna get desperate and starting flying in for takedowns and grapples, and is just going to eat so many punches on the way in.

If Magny wins convincingly does Chiesa start to transition to full time analyst/commentator and start to transition out of fighting?
