This fight and Burgos-Barboza are two fights where you just think "Man, that's a fight I never knew I wanted to see really bad"

Hall vs. Topuria
Ilia Topuria, TKO, R1
Easy for Topuria. TKO 1st round, he will throw punches without fear of being taken down, unlike the rest of people who fought Ryan in the past, since he is better than Hall on the matt.

@Kruss if you want to say the Topuria will be able to avoid Halls grappling or even say that he can neutralize it, but there is no way that Ilia is a better grappler than Hall

Why i have the impression that the UFC made cuts from the previous ones, just to load this one here!?

Conor McGregor vs Dustin Poirier

Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 520 Points   |   Tied for 1833rd


Comeback to 05.03.2016 when Conor lost his fight with Diaz.After this fight Conor made an analyze of this lose fight and transformed his mistakes to victory in rematch. 
Now lets look. 
Conor's mistakes in this fight: 
First and honestly only one mistake in this fight was typical boxing position( because before fight with Dustin, Conor want fight with Manny Pacquaio and he was training for boxing bout) which prevented quick and effective defense againts Dustin's lowkicks. And thats all. Conor won first round 10:9. His punches made an impression on Dustin and his face.
 If in the 3rd fight Conor will have normal mma position and will successfully defend the lowkicks, he will destroy Dustin in 2 max 3 rounds.
Lets goooo!

I think he wants to put an end to their chapter, they've had a lot of moments together, and a lot of animosity in the first fight. Might as well but an end to the chapter with a third match, I'm for it while Chandler gets 1 more win and likely a title shot if he beats do Bronx

I feel like the Universe either hates me enough to want my predictions to fail, so might as well pick the guy I don't like to win. Well he might win, but hey, if he loses that's good for me because Dustin is my man, and it's also good if we wins because I get a main event right

Burns is extremely good at setting traps. He'll catch Wonderboy as he blitzes in with a straight strike and KO him.

Why does Jessica eye get to Fight in the main card of huge ppv event when she's just an average fighter?
Last time she fought Calderwood in Dustin vs Mccregor card too. She doesn't deserve to be featured in PPV cards.. that too in the main card. Smh
