Emelianenko vs. Johnson
Fedor Emelianenko, TKO, R1
I created my account 5 months after his last fight so I've never picked Fedor and this might be my only opportunity to do so. My realistic prediction is Tim Johnson 1st round KO/TKO but I just want to be able to see that I once picked Fedor when I look at his page and glance at the "my pick history" part.

Emelianenko vs. Johnson
Tim Johnson, TKO, R1
This one hurts more than anyone can imagine. I really wish Fedor is able to get the win and set off into the sunset but they gave him a guy who just competed for a the Interim title. Also Fedor has the equivalent of paper thin piece of glass of a chin.

Minakov vs. Sowma
Vitaly Minakov, TKO, R2
Man this 2 year layoff really makes me worry for my pick. Plus Sowma is a pretty hard guy to finish, survived three rounds against Fortune

I'm surpised to see the odds are spot on for this fight, I figured Fedor would be a favorite due to name power

Predictions: 7 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 480 Points   |   Tied for 169th

Emelianenko vs. Johnson
Fedor Emelianenko, TKO, R1
Fedor despite being 45 years old and having had so many battles still has his KO power intact, but his tolerance for punches has been significantly reduced. Johnson is a fighter of good level and with a lot of experience, personally he seems to me the ideal opponent for the potential last fight of "The Last Emperor". The path of this matchup seems clear to me: Fedor gets the KO or ends up knocked out in the first round. Win or lose, it is undeniable the impact that Fedor Emelianenko had on sports culture in Russia and part of Europe (thanks to Fedor many of the Sambo Fighters made the transition to MMA), in addition to being one of the greatest figures of MMA Worldwide.

Minakov vs. Sowma
Vitaly Minakov, TKO, R1
Respect for Sowma for taking the fight after Fortune dodged the matchup against Minakov, but I don't think he's ready to fight a fighter at Minakov's level. Vitaly will probably get the TKO in the first round, it would be interesting if Bellator would schedule the trilogy between Kongo vs. Minakov (due to Bader facing interim champion Moldavsky).

Tokov vs. Davlatmurodov
Anatoly Tokov, DEC
Hard debut in Bellator for Davlatmurodov, I totally agree with Mikey that the odds are very exaggerated (something that has become common at the time of closing in the Bellator cards) and I also consider that Davlatmurodov is a good fighter, but Tokov It is legit: I have already achieved a clear victory against a former champion of the category (Alexander Shlemenko) for 2022, probably Tokov will fight against Mousasi for the belt. I think Tokov can take the victory in a fight that will have entertaining moments and several scrambles.

Sidelnikov vs. Truesdale
Kirill Sidelnikov, TKO, R2
Baby Fedor is not an Elite fighter, but he is a good level fighter: His losses have been against fighters like Sergei Pavlovich, the undefeated Adam Keresch and veterans like Paul Buentello. Sidelnikov has a great level of Combat Sambo I think he can dominate the fight from the top position and win by ground and pound or by clear decision

Mazdyuk vs. Sadura
Katarzyna Sadura, DEC
Unlike the overweight 529-pound man and all of Mazdyuk's pro victories, Sadura has plenty of pro and amateur experience in addition to being set at 125 pounds. Beating a Russian at an event in Moscow seems unlikely, but this fight seems to me like it can end with an upset result.

Usman is the future; this is another setup fight (really nothing wrong with that imo gotta build him up correctly)

Tokov vs. Davlatmurodov

Fedor Emelianenko, TKO, R1
I've been watching MMA since 2016, so i've actually since Fedor fight live 6 times (this fight will be the 7th time) I really wanna see him and Baby Fedor come thru for Russia. His durability and age (45 y/o) is making me wanna pick Johnson, but **** it Fedor KO Round 1 is the fun pick! (;

Ruthless New Predictions

Predictions: 5 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 724th

Lee vs. Osetrov
I have a crush on Aleksandr Osetrov at -170. He has a trendy takedown. Osetrov will shatter the cycle. Заруби ceбe на носу!

Sidelnikov vs. Truesdale
I go with Kirill Sidelnikov at -310. He has a nutty hiza guruma. Sidelnikov shall bake the natural order.

Mazdyuk vs. Sadura
I desire Darina Mazdyuk at -180. She has a homemade mountain bomb and a macabre level change. Mazdyuk shall land the previous pitfalls.

Alekseeva vs. Page
I appoint Irina Alekseeva at -135. She has a luxurious hammerlock. Alekseeva should block the opposing forces.

Moore vs. Mikhailov
I prefer Nikita Mikhailov at -310. He has an illogical takedown. Mikhailov should avert the enemy.

Nurmagomedov vs. Pietilä
I predict Usman Nurmagomedov at -2500. He has a bodacious oshi-dashi and a laudable double leg and also a sophisticated takedown. Nurmagomedov shall kindle the achievement.

Minakov vs. Sowma
I predict Vitaly Minakov at -305. He has a hot kneebar. Minakov is about to attempt the foe. Clearly!

Tokov vs. Davlatmurodov
I love Anatoly Tokov at -640. He has a final stamina and a zany crescent kick. Tokov will clinch the victory.

Emelianenko vs. Johnson
I am all over Tim Johnson at -170. He has a wacky back mount. Johnson will assist the performance.
