Menifield vs. Cherant
Alonzo Menifield, TKO, R1
I'm still not confident picking Menifield here (especially since I don't know much about his opponent)... He's such a one shot canon, he might gass out just walking into the cage...

I agree with most of you on here that Woodley will win this fight and will probably win by decision.  He's finally fighting someone who isn't going to spam takedowns on him.  Woodley became champ by point fighting strikers, he is going to dominate by decision in this fight against Luque.   Woodley still has a great chin in my opinion.  

Maybe Woodley will go the Derek Brunson path of being a gatekeeper at 170?

Miocic vs. N'Gannou II
Stipe Miocic, TKO, R4
People disrespect the Heawyweight Goat, And argubly pound 4 pound Champ, Francis is not gonna Hulk Smash him, Stipe gonna avoid that **** because Stipe ain't bad like most heavyweight, Watch the 1st fight again and you see what I mean. I think Francis could win being 100% hulk and just smashing his way threw Stipe, But I think he be better If he jabs and try to set up the KO then he will win, Its a impossble fight to predict confedently because Ngagnu longest fight since Derrick Lewis is 70 secounds, And he was Knocking out fools before that also but in quicker fashion since

Woodley vs. Luque
Vicente Luque, TKO, R2
Really like the Luque by KO prop at about +250, Woodly got Finish by Colby, And Colby Harmless. Imagen what a savage like Vicente would do if Woodly does jack **** for 3 round again. I think it weird how people are so confendent in Vicente by decsion for that reason

@DamienHandel... Luque is not a wrestler like Usman/Burns/Covington, he is a hard hitting striker so for the first time in a long time... Woodley is going to have the wrestling edge.  Woodley also has a very strong chin, I'm not sure you watched the Covington and Woodley fight.  Woodley lost due to a rib injury not because of a regular KO.  Of course, there is a chance that Luque does actually catch Woodley and knock him out, there's no doubt about that but I feel that Woodley will outpoint him to a decision.

I also think O'Malley wins but i wouldn't mind seeing Thomas finish him with leg kicks lol just drill like 20 of them in over a round and a half. That would make the whole card worth it for me. He would be the only undefeated 12-2 fighter on the planet.

@Lastsword I have for some reason envisioned Twood having a repeat of his till performance on Saturday, but damn I hope that doesn't happen

Watching luque's media interview he said he isn't underestimating Woodley and that he still feels he is top level and is preparing for the best version of him. that's a huge problem for Woodley if luque is going into the fight with that mindset. Feel like luque wins.

Watch out for Woodley on this one. I say he was trigger shy his last few fights due to fighting elite wrestlers. Now he is on the chopping block taking a step down in competition vs a striker whom he has the power and wrestling advantage over. Few fights ago Woodley would be clear favorite.

Woodley vs Luque

Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 2 Perfect, 480 Points   |   Tied for 664th

Guys please stop predicting Woodley to win. He is finished, he was always overrated and Luque is a very bad match up for him. Only chance Woodley taking this is by catching Luque with a big shot. Luque has never been finished though.

I love the Luque is very hittable narrative. lol like yea problem is hes facing a guy who doesn't throw anything. I know the logic of picking Woodley is stupid. low volume guy who lives with his back against the fence against a go forward volume striker. With that being said something in my stomach is telling me T Wood first round KO by the T BOMB right hand behind the ear in one of his 7 attempted strikes in the first round 

Prob just gotta poop

I havent watched it but he got his ass kicked pretty good the 1st time, it would look foolish not to be humble the 2nd time around. Unless your Conor McGregor.
