I still think Vettori will win this matchup but...

If he doesn't, where does that leave us?
Is Hermansson a weak fighter? Is Vettori garbage? Is Holland the next contender? 

I'm actually just as interested in that scenario as the one in which Vettori comes out on top and gets the title rematch.

Aliaskhab Khizriev   vs.   Kyle Daukaus 


The most difficult fight to predict on the card, because there's two ways it ends: Khizriev via dec, or Daukaus by sub, and I think both possibilities are about as equally likely. I don't put too much stock in Khizriev's unbeaten record. Many is the time I've seen low-cap big-hype Russian/Dagi stock fighters with unbeaten records debut on serious promotions and get absolutely obliterated.  Khabibs and Chimaevs are rare. Most of these guys are turnip farmers who are part-timing.



Few would I believe disagree with the observation that Khizriev fights like a deranged mongoloid attempting to violently **** a wild goat. But personally I think Daukaus probably will get tupped here, because he's too willing to give up to position and lay on his back hunting for subs. If his opponents have moderately good choke defense, he thusly gets decisioned. Daukaus looks for mostly bread and butter stuff, I've never seen him try to set up a heel hook or similar. I have to think that Khizriev who I know has the cardio for at least two solid rounds of frenzied downie rage, and who is as neckless as my hairy big toe can probably survive the bad spots and win either 29-28 or 30-27 on top control and hammer fists--which incidentally I've seen him throw on the feet.


Won't be surprised if he gets Brabo'ed though. Not a bettable fight IMO.

Most of krizchev wins are against cans as well, like the first 10 fights of his 13-0 are against people 0-0 or 0-1ish. I got daukaus

I think it weird how Blanchfield is the +200 underdog, With my very minuscule knowledge on WMMA outside the UFC, Blanchfield look a whole lot better and I think Blanchfield should be the favourite. Im steaming Blanchfield as 33.33% implied probilty is stupid. And anyone betting Dumont at this odds hate money and doesn't know anything about WMMA


Edit: Anyone know the reason why Dumont the favourite, Beside Simps betting her

Blanchfield is not big even for her natural weight class, and she's going up a weight class to fight Dumont, a big Bantamweight on short notice.
So in short, going up a weight class/short notice.

Does a prediction comment count as a regular comment, number wise? Like I have 3,333, if I add a fight comment does it count as a regular comment ❓ Thx in advance!

@Hippie

How exactly did @Gregory ruin your 3,333 post? Is it because of the downvote and if so how do you even know that came from him?

Yes, prediction comments count as regular comments in terms of the number of forum posts.

@Hippie

I've just checked out yours and @Gregory's walls and I can see why you'd be pissed off but I've counted back from your last posts and it seems that your 3,333 post in the Miscellaneous Thread was still your 3,333rd post anyways so it all seems to add up.
