Predictions: 7 of 9 Winners, 4 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 521st

I will say I ment to pick Romenov, I click the wrong guy,I think he beat Vanadraa  And for adding Romenov to a parley. I don't like betting Heavy favourite heavyweight or women as they're division are so volatile, At -600, It not worth it, But I will say, I'm confedent he does the grappling, But at -600, No way. 

I also suppose to say bet Mazo in my previous post, I don't know what wrong with me at the moment mixing the names up

Predictions: 6 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 415 Points   |   Tied for 1558th

Rodriguez vs. Dern
Marina Rodriguez, TKO, R3
I think Rodriguez has the better all around game even with Dern upping her boxing. Rodriguez will go to war and probably trained staying off the ground the last 2 out of 3 camps.

Brown vs. Gooden
Randy Brown, DEC
Really a 50/50, like both fighters here but think Brown is coming into his own and if he doesn't get flatlined should cruise to a DEC.

Elliott vs. Nicolau
Tim Elliott, DEC
Just really like Elliott's unorthodox style, funky man. I like it, hopefully Elliott doesn't spend too much time on the feet where he can lose a DEC.

Agapova vs. Mazo
Sabina Mazo, DEC
Even tho Mazo looked like the hunchback of Notre Dame last fight, Agapova just isn't that gal. Will be interested in how Mazo does/looks at flyweight.

Hawes vs. Winn
Phil Hawes, TKO, R2
Hawes has already proved against a grappler he shines. Even though Winn is probably the best one he is going to face, Hawes just has those heavy hands and is hard to get down. Expecting him to put it on DC Jr.

Gutierrez vs. Colares
Chris Gutierrez, DEC
Expecting Gutierrez to use more boxing with a few low kicks here and there to slow his opponent, unless Colares can get him to the floor no way.

Staropoli vs. Pickett
Laureano Staropoli, DEC
Pickett lost to the Beverley Hills Chihuahua, the can crusher... Unless Staropoli gets flatlined in the 1st round, just no way. Pickett hasn't beat anybody, at least Staropoli has heart and looked decent against Dolidze.

Romanov vs. Vanderaa
Alexander Romanov, SUB, R2
If Vanderaa wins this one he will be defying the odds once again. Such a huge underdog against Tafa but showed heart. Can't imagine Romanov doesn't just take him down over and over again eventually leading to a SUB.

Rosa vs. Jackson
Damon Jackson, SUB, R3
Picked Rosa against Minner and Jaynes. Not again, Damon Jackson should keep it on the feet until the end when Rosa shoots a ****** takedown into a choke.

Godinez vs. Hughes
Lupita Godinez, DEC
Oh Sam Hughes.... just not doing it, especially knowing she lost pretty handily to Godinez before.

Ontiveros vs. Garcia
Steve Garcia, TKO, R2
Between both of these guys they have had 1 fight at LW, that being Garcia... Expecting one or both to miss weight but knowing Ontiveros losses come by KO and Garcia has KO power; expecting Garcia to get him out of there within 10 mins.

Idk if you give dern credit for improved TDs against Nunes, like almost everyone she fought was able to get her down pretty easy. And it was just 1. This will definitely answer some questions I have about her improvements there.

@DamienHandel, it's okay man... sometimes I make picks or bets when I'm drunk and I have no idea why or how I did that.  They almost always lose too lol.. alcohol and sports betting do not go hand in hand.

Rodriguez vs. Dern
Marina Rodriguez, TKO, R4
I think Rodriguez take down defense will hold up long enough for her to be able to keep the fight standing up where she has the advantage. Rodriguez has shown the ability to make her opponent pay when they repeatedly go for the single leg take down. In addition, Rodriguez has shown the ability to cause damage from her back. That being said if Dern does get it to the ground she has a huge advantage and should be able to control her opponent.

I can see Marina doing something as simple as getting a kick caught and tripped or taken off balance and next thing you know she's on her back.

Could happen but I think Dern's TD% is in the single digits or something horrible like that, not to mention that she did manage to stuff Esparza from time to time.

This card is such exceptionally pupil-dilating rancid dreck that I can't even muster the energy to satirise it. The sensation is not unlike being too bored to masturbate.

And even if I could be bothered, I'd simply come across as a lunatic anyway. It would be like hovering over a stray human turd on the sidewalk with a teaching pointer and spiritedly lecturing the passing foot traffic on everything that's wrong with it.

Kudos, UFC. I am defeated.

@fishrat
Honestly they're only 2 fights that im somewhat interested in the next 3 UFC card, Vettori vs Costa and Rodriguez vs Dern. I'm usually interested in multiple fights per card, The UFC is dropping they quallty. But the problem is I watch anyway, Because what I'm I gonna do, Watch Bellator

Godinez vs. Juárez
Lupita Godinez, DEC
This fight is much better than Godinez's previous one and also much more dangerous too. I'm going with Godinez because I feel her hands are fast enough to land on Gomez and she can also get takedowns here and there. She needs to be very careful of Gomez's calf kicks however, her calf kicks are powerful and she ended her last fight with them. I think Godinez will be able to control the pace of this fight and get a decision here

Cards like this usually over deliver

Predictions: 8 of 9 Winners, 5 Perfect, 565 Points   |   Tied for 58th

Wish this card didn't lose the Trizano fight. That Staropoli/Pickett fight wasn't anything crazy but I'd definitely take it on this card; prelims are kind of light. I think this card can still over deliver in terms of quality. 

The one issue I will say is a lot of these fights look like they'll go to a decision on paper.

@DC  Nina's TD Defense is 76% lol Suarez the best wrestler in the division went 4 for 13. Claudia went 2 for 10 and Randa went 1 for 11. Dern was 1 for 2 and subbed her. (although right after having a baby). Sure everyone gets her down but I wouldn't go as far as saying they all do it easily.

Rosa vs. Jackson
Charles Rosa, DEC
Very hard fight to call in my opinion. The striking battle is close but I edge Rosa just based on his volume and throwing a more variety of shots. Jackson would be smart to go for takedowns, we know Rosa can struggle when put onto his back but I feel like whoever can go for top control in the grappling exchanges can win the fight. It's tough to call but I'm ever so slightly leaning Rosa because I feel like he can do more when it's on the feet
