Dude what in the hell's hell are you
even don't understand a-bout it?
Just in a kidding mode ,
i made a prediction of a prediction,
what in the hell's hell is that you didn't like a-bout it?
But even now that i think about it again after your comment : Weili Zhang via KO S1!
Probably someone would tell you about a Ford Escort and you would probably believe it, eh !?
At some point you have to stop consuming whatever they served to you!
I hope now to be understood!

Jorge Masvidal, TKO, R3
i think masvidal has to win under 3 or usman's pressure and gameplan will just exhaust him and he'll lose to TKO or UD. wittman is the best corner/coach in the game
Weidman vs. Hall II
Uriah Hall, TKO, R2
weidman either has to fight perfect or he will get KO'd cold. he always looks amazing until he gets finished
Brown vs. Oliveira
Alex Oliveira, DEC
brown will probably win but i like oliveira more
Allen vs. Roberson
Brendan Allen, SUB, R3
allen is probably the lock of the card for me. roberson is vulnerable to allen's strengths which are his grappling and sub skillset, either UD or dec win barring roberson looking like a whole different fighter or landing a lucky shot
Rong vs. Vargas
Rodrigo Vargas, DEC
rong is certainly more active, and vargas is largely unproven. will be interesting to see how this one goes down. not a fight i would bet on

Kamaru Usman, TKO, R5
This fight could be interesting if Masvidal could avoid the fence and the 30 feet octogon could help in that quest as Usman couldn't really take down Masvidal and Masvidal argubly has better hands,So if Masvidal stays patinet and set up a knockout blow instead of rushing things like the first time he could win this, Usman also fell in love with his hands, But I just don't see that happening, Usman Presure is great and Masvidal really like the fence to stop takedown so i don't see him getting off that fence, so expecting Masvidal to have sore feet sunday morning. But in All serriouness, Usman look motivated to be the first person to finish Masvidal, Dude want finish for his legacy
Shevchenko vs. Andrade
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
This pain me to say this, But Valitina is gonna pick apart Andrade for a 50-45 decsion , Valintina is 4 inches taler and has 3 and a half inches of reach while being at a clear reach advantage, I just see Valitina having a real techincal perfomace as Valitina is a pure counter fighter and Andrade gonna give her counter. I be shock if Andrade beats Valitina but I be more shocked if Valitina finish her so Valitina by Decsion at +150 is really good odds for parleys.
Smith vs. Crute
Jimmy Crute, DEC
Jimmy Crute is gonna wresle****** Lionheart for a 3 round decsion, Lionheart is easy to takedown and just get beat up if takin down. Ever since Crute lost he fight iq increast drasicaly, Before he use to fight to his oppenent strength like Jon Jones use to, Now he fight to his oppentent weakness. I still really want to see this fight as Crute is the number prospect out of Australia
Brown vs. Oliveira
Randy Brown, DEC
Braziilan Cowboy loss every fight now and Brown has been on a roll latley, Only recent loss to Luque and Price ain't that bad of a look. I can only see this being a tough night in the office for Oliveria
Grant vs. Sekulić
Dwight Grant, TKO, R1
Grant is a guy who should never be a big favourite or a big underdog agaist really anyone. He a guy who KO Usman than in the next fight lose a decsion to a scrub. Dwight has power to slept Stefan and It probley happen, But what happen if he doesn't land the killing blow? He won't land anything and loss a split decsion
Allen vs. Roberson
Brendan Allen, SUB, R2
Brandon Allen or As I call him the Flash will probley win as Allen beat some really good guy like Kevin Holland, Kyle Daukous and Tom Brezze, Robenson wins ain't ****, Anyone know who Roman Kopylov is, Or rate Jake Marshman or Weligton Turman. Robinson also alway loss on the ground and Brendon Allen has a really good ground games

Kamaru Usman, DEC
If that overhand right from Burns couldn't finish Usman I don't know what the hell can. And still
Zhang vs. Namajunas
Weili Zhang, DEC
Zhang's pressure will overwhelm Rose. Rose's last fight vs. Andrade arguably could've went to Andrade, wasn't a pretty win for Rose. And still
Shevchenko vs. Andrade
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
If this was a 3 round fight I'd lean more towards Andrade. Going Valentina because even with Andrade's wrestling pressure I can't see her keeping it up enough to win a 5 round fight with the bullet. Valentina will outsmart Andrade on the feet IMO
Weidman vs. Hall II
Chris Weidman, DEC
"Borrriinnggg" (if anyone has a kid that loves Trolls you'll get that reference). Taking Weidman via lay & pray
Smith vs. Crute
Anthony Smith, SUB, R2
Not sold much on this pick but have to give credit to Smith's 4 recent losses, (Rakic, Teixeira, Jones, Santos) all respectable. This is a rush up the rankings for Crute with this matchup, his next fight should've been more up against someone like Spann or Walker (since it couldn't be Hill). I see Crute having a setback here but bouncing back after. Still young, still learning
