Don't sleep on Yanez vs Arteaga, these women are both scrappers, should be a fun one unlike some of last week's WMMA matches.

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 440 Points   |   Tied for 969th

Anderson vs. Yagshimuradov
Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov, TKO, R1
Yagshimuradov is from Turkmenistan (a country with an extravagant history) and if I have learned something with the generation of fighters in Dagestan, it is that in the countries near those Mountainous Areas there is a good level of Wrestling and Sambo. Corey Anderson averages at least 5 takedowns per fight with a 50% effectiveness. Anderson has from his side the UFC experience past his and having wins over fighters like Glover Teixiera, Jan Blachowicz and Ilir Latifi. Yagshimuradov is a former ACB champion and is characterized by power and precision in his punches. Corey Anderson has been dropped and knocked out by several good strikers in the past, especially when he has failed to implement his takedown strategy from the start. I choose Yagshimuradov because I consider that he manages to defend the first attempts at takedowns and connect the great hand that gives him the victory by stoppage in the first round. This can be considered a great upset, but if we consider the fact that Anderson is a -175 favorite (not -300 favorite or -750 favorite as it happens in many of the matchups at Bellator) it shows that this scenario is very possible.

Daley vs. Homasi
Sabah Homasi, DEC
Paul Daley has struggled with the weight cut and this will likely be his retirement fight. Daley was a top fighter with wins over Lorenz Larkin, Erick Silva, Daniel Weichel, Younger Masvidal and Kampmann. It's a shame that despite his powerful striking, he was never able to take the belt from a big MMA promotion (coming very close in Strikeforce and in the UFC). Sabah Homasi strikes me as a fighter whose abilities are highly underrated especially considering the fact that he was a Heavy Underdog versus a one-dimensional Curtis Millender whom he dominated from start to finish. Homasi has a great arsenal with respect to striking and a very effective wrestling, since this run in Bellator began Homasi has shown an excellent Fight IQ and this last factor is what makes me think that Homasi will start the round standing up, avoid the crazy exchanges, then take the fight to the ground and dominate with control and ground and pound. It may not be the most watched fight, but I think Homasi will fight it safe to take the most important victory of his career.

Carvalho vs. Wilson
Pedro Carvalho, TKO, R2
Pedrinho '' The Game '' is still one of the top men at Bellator 145 pounds division. He was Knocked Out in his last fight, but this was against the # 1 P4P Fighter at Bellator and a Top 5 FW MMA Fighter worldwide. Jay Jay Wilson is coming off an impressive performance, but Carvalho is on a different level compared to the fighters the "Maori Kid" has faced before. Carvalho uses good knees and kicks with shine towards the body and this added has added to the danger of him on the ground will be the keys to his search for victory and return to the main planes.

Nemkov vs. Davis II
Vadim Nemkov, DEC
Nemkov is a little better at all the things Davis is great at.

Anderson vs. Yagshimuradov
Dovletdzhan Yagshimuradov, TKO, R2
Hopeful pick. I don't expect to be right but sometimes you need to go with your gut, and I think this guy's relentlessness will be enough

Daley vs. Homasi
Paul Daley, TKO, R1
This is Daley's retirement fight and I think he's going to go balls-to-the-wall bananas hunting that KO, and he knows how to find the chin.

Arteaga vs. Yanez
Desiree Yanez, TKO, R3
I find it surprising that this fight is higher up on the card than Julia Budd's but what do I know.

Anglickas vs. Milliard
Julius Anglickas, DEC
I was shocked when Anglickas beat Polizzi and I'll be shocked if he doesn't win here.

Mowry vs. Asher
Steve Mowry, SUB, R1
This fight is so Bellator.

Daniels vs. Stanonik II
Raymond Daniels, TKO, R1
I missed most of the first fight because I couldn't see through the tears of laughter

Nemkov vs. Albrektsson
Viktor Nemkov, DEC
I could see a GNP tko but I think Nemkov just wears him down for a decision

Carvalho vs. Wilson
Jay Jay Wilson, TKO, R1
Wilson is so entertaining

Gibson Jr. vs. Surin
Lance Gibson Jr., SUB, R1
This one is gonna be NUTS!

Rogers vs. Burnell
Saul Rogers, DEC
Rogers beat Ryan Hall without getting submitted, I think he will survive Burnell also.

Nemkov Brothers

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 440 Points   |   Tied for 969th

The main reason I like the Fedor Team is because the fighters in that Gym (like Fedor Emelianenko) are cold blood fighters with their feet on the earth. He always manages good strategy and their spirits do not go down by the defeat of a teammate on the same card or by facing a fighter who beat one of his teammates in the past.
Nemkov Brothers are not like the Pettis Brothers, who despite being very talented if they fought on the same card both lost.

Nor will it be a case like the Buys: '' It is very emotional for me that me and my husband are the first couple to win on the same card in the UFC '' then she is taken to the ground by the same stupid headlock in the 3 rounds and JP is dropped for every clean shot Silva lands on him before he suffers the stopagge.
Viktor will face Albetksson who beat his brother by split decision after watching the Swede vs. Phil Davis there is no doubt that with a good Takedowns strategy the Russian should get the victory comfortably.

Vadim will beat Davis again, Nemkov already surpassed Davis once who always has a similar style in his fights. I dare say that Nemkov this time could be the first man to finish Phil Davis.
Not stupid emotional charges that are then conditioning during the fight.

Sharing a card with teammates, compatriots, friends or family should be more than anecdotal. And in case of influence, it should be as extra motivation and not as something that predisposes you to make silly mistakes.
