Prediction Comments

Predictions: 5 of 14 Winners, 1 Perfect, 330 Points   |   Tied for 3933rd

Oliveira vs. Poirier
Dustin Poirier, TKO, R3
Ok I don't see this fight going the distance at all somebody's going out on their sword

Nunes vs. Peña
Amanda Nunes, TKO, R2
Super upset of the night if Pena pulls this off she shocks the world I think she's dangerous but Amanda is a beast

Neal vs. Ponzinibbio
Santiago Ponzinibbio, DEC
Neal is dealing with outside of the cage things I don't think he comes in the best form possible think it'll be a good fight tho

Kara-France vs. Garbrandt
Cody Garbrandt, TKO, R3
Cody's got something to prove hopefully he does it in high fashion

O'Malley vs. Paiva
Sean O'Malley, TKO, R2
I think it's gonna be a fight for the suga show

Emmett vs. Ige
Dan Ige, TKO, R3
It's gonna get bloody

Munhoz vs. Cruz
Pedro Munhoz, TKO, R2
I think munhoz rocks Cruz and that's all she wrote

Sakai vs. Tuivasa
Tai Tuivasa, TKO, R2
It's shoey time!!!!!

Silva vs. Wright
Jordan Wright, TKO, R2
This is gonna be a banger for sure

Muniz vs. Anders
Eryk Anders, TKO, R2
If Anders can get the wheels turning in the first he gets it done otherwise he gets steamrolled

Hall vs. Minner
Ryan Hall, SUB, R1
I think Hall takes a limb home

Your right , I lost all confidence in Olivera after watching all his losses. He literally quit every single one as soon it got tough. All his wins are against low level nobodies with the exception of a shot tony Ferguson and a gassed one round micheal chandler. I don’t value subs over teymur, giagos, guida. There levels to this championship level is no quit no surrender. He’s got quit written all over him

thats crazy. you guys say islam is the next coming when he steamrolls **** comp (tsaryukan and dober aside) but when Charles steamrolls equally **** competition hes still a quitter? he has lost one round on this win streak of his. try judging him off skill and not off record

Quitting that many times is a serious detriment to his skills. You can’t drill heart at the gym you have it or not. The title won’t matter look at yans run.

its not his fault he got those opponents. if youre a top tier fighter you should finish that level, and he did. i dont get why ppl complain about competition like its the fighters fault that they got matched up with them. Just like islam makhachev, he ran through everyone just like how poirier or gaethje would.

Exactly thank you Reynolds. Do Bronx has steamrolled everyone he’s fought so far but no one is saying he’s good because there’s no hype on him. People gotta look at how he’s beating people. If he was losing rounds to sub par comp, then it would be totally ok to say he sucks, but he’s not even dropping rounds against them

Also you abolsutely can change heart. If Charles quit as much as you said he does then chandler would be champ

Competition is definitely the fighters fault. To quote max Holloway “if you wanna be the best you have to beat the best” low level talent fighters fight other low level talents. There is a reason why there are prelims main  card prelims and main card and ppv. Levels. Pulling subs on guys not in the Ufc anymore or completely washed doesn’t say much about your strength of schedule.

Whatever. I was the only one riding Curtis and hill and look how that played out. I’m fine if people wanna count out oliviera, just don’t want you guys to make the same mistake I did of thinking he’s gonna crumble easily

My opinions do not apply to Islam. He’s in a different category. No one wants to take a fight with him. Never lost like Charlie. Styles make fights. No one has a answer for Islam. The answer for Charlie is written on the wall in bold marker. MAKE HIM QUIT!

No one on this winstreak has had anything for Charles. He’s lost one round bruh. You realize he’s likely in his prime now so he’s obviously different than he was 5 years ago in a different weight class.

Because 27 year old charles is not the same as 32 year old charles. Have you ever heard of being in your prime? Oliviera was always on the cusp of being the next thing and now that’s he’s hit his stride he’s living up to his potential

Ok good to know we are on the same page. If they’re both in their primes then how should this be a mismatch? They’re both as dangerous as they’ve ever been.
