@Ngannou pretty sure i never said he was scared. 

Hooker was #10 and he knocked him out....its like your saying he isnt worthy of being ranked in the lightweight division.

Dustin and Conor playing the money game, Dariush and Tony scheduled....Gathje coming off a title fight loss...I mean who else is left to fight in the division if all that happened? Its hard with 5 of the tops guys off the board, and then lining up medical suspensions. Do you prefer Chandler not fight at all?

At least admit there is something to the UFC wanting Oliveira to be Chandlers opponent all along.

Nah I wasn't gonna order it, I was gonna go. I live in Houston and go to each event that comes but I'll most likely pass on this one unless tickets get really cheap by the day of, the hype is slowly leaving this card with all the cancellations

If Gina Mizany is the biggest favourite, I’m take a shot on pricella out of principle  because Gina can easily lose as she terrible also.

Yes, my point was the number of wins each has, and who got a title shot first in the UFC.

I didnt say he wasn't worthy of being ranked...I'm saying guys didnt respect him as being a legit contender thats why they didnt want to fight him.

I like the guy I think he's solid.

Yeah I'm on board with this being the matchup he wanted all along that makes sense.

@Duck I didn't say she was worthy of it by any means. Just kinda shocked me to see that no one on the card was -200 or better but her. A lot of close match ups on paper

Chandler vs Oliveira

Predictions: 4 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 240 Points   |   Tied for 3474th

i just feel we almost have a Ferreria vs Gillesepe vibe from last week. People in this forum *you know who you are* said Gregor was too green and Diego's BJJ pedigree would trump his wrestling. Granted Chandler isn't as relentless with the takedowns due to him being comfortable on the feet at times.

I see multiple paths to victory for Chandler, I see less for Oliveira.

Chandler also never been subbed and trained with Gilbert for years. Best of luck to Charlie Olives

You cant always listen to people on this forum man...dont fall into that trap.

Big thing about Gregor vs Diego was one guy had come off a long layoff and the other guy missed weight and didn't look to good. The wrestling vs BJJ is a good comparison for sure though.

Here we've got 2 guys who are both decently active and both potent finishers.

Its a volatile matchup and one of the hardest fights to predict. 

After seeing what Chandler did to hooker I was impressed. After seeing Oliveria run through an old CTE'd out tony Ferguson I was still impressed but slightly less. Tony could have tapped to that armbar and I'd be thinking differently.

I respect both guys and I do predict a finish here. It's just so so volatile.

Top 4 fights to finish inside the distance:

(as of 5/10)
1) Chandler/Oliveira -365
2) Hermansson/Shahbazyan -250 (postponed till next week)
3) Wright/Pickett -185
4) Muniz/Souza -120

Vegas likes the finish too.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 4 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 425th

Burgos vs. Barboza
Edson Barboza, TKO, R2
BANGER!!!! I think Barboza wins this. I mean who beats Barboza in a straight kickboxing match??? Yes, Gaethje, but he's a mad man!! I also think the damage Burgos takes will take a toll in the fight.

Schnell vs. Bontorin
Matt Schnell, DEC
I like Schnell but I always worry about his ability to take a shot. I can see him winning this fight easily then getting clipped and finished in the 3rd! Hopefully not.

Mazany vs. Cachoeira
Priscila Cachoeira, TKO, R2
Geez, this fight is mad! Never in my life did I think I'd see Gina Mazany as a 2 to 1 favourite!!!! Also I never thought I would be favouring Priscilla Catch a Beating!!! Yet, here we are.
