Alright, the teams are locked! I just want to thank the promoters for putting this together. And I think it's a good thing, actually, that we're not waiting for UFC 263 where there are meaningful matchups. Picking Ben Rothwell and Sarah Alpar vs whatever last minute regional opponent says yes is the way to go.

Off topic, but Fernando Padilla has just been signed by the UFC, I think he's a super exciting prospect can't wait to see him debut!

@Erison

Have you sent out the invite to @FireFist45 so that the message will pop up on his page when he next logs in? In the meantime, NOBODY JOIN THAT GAME!

I invited him, and I think he's the only one who can join. But he's on his own planet so fingers crossed he sees it.

@Erison

Well as it's a public game, anyone could join it. It's giving me the option to join it and take his spot for instance. It's just a case of hoping that nobody else joins before he does.

He must have made it private because he's scared of my wrath. He knows I'm Tapology's preeminent Norma Dumont expert.

no, also you can challenge people on their profile. You dont have to make a public link like this.

I'm surprised by that fight's odds. I dont see Court winning that fight at all. 

Anyone else also shocked by the Hermansson-Edmen matchmaking and odds? Edmen clearly wasnt ready for Brunson and looked like he hit a brick wall. So they give him a higher ranked (at the time the fight was made) and possibly trickier matchup?

I had a huge parlay and the last leg was Court McGee to beat Carlos Condit.

We all know Carlos cannot stop a takedown...and Court likes to work the takedowns. The man didn't land a single takedown and went out there and got outstruck by Carlos Condit. His nose was full Arolvsky 2 minutes in. Don't put a dollar on the guy he doesnt have the ring IQ and doesn't have a gameplan.

We saw that if Claudio Silva doesn't get the submission...what does he do? His striking is not good.

And @Erison...I do agree this could be a trickier matchup for the young Shabazyan but I've got something telling me he's gonna win. 

If he's worked on things and shored up his game since his last loss versus Brunson I could see him keeping the fight standing and landing some bombs on Hermansson. Edmen says he only wants to fight good guys...and that's the mentality of someone who works on their game and is confident. I'll give him a dog shot because I do still think he has a lot of potential.

Hopefully he's worked on that gas tank also..and patience. You can't go 100 on every guy in the first round and expect to always win that way.

The thing with this Court McGee vs Claudio Silva fight is this:

In his 29 fight career, Court McGee has never once been submitted by anyone even though he has fought in the UFC since 2012!  On top of that, he has only been knocked out one time in his career and that was against Santiago Ponzinnibio who is one of the hardest hitters in the division.
