I don't think the Chimaev vs Colby fight happens.  They should continue to build up Khamzat at a normal pace, no need to rush him just yet.  Put him against Magny next and then a top 5 and then a title shot after that.

Ya I do t think it happens either, not because of rushing him but I think they would rather have him fight poirier or masvidal

Ye probably. Nate said he wants a top 5 guy they should honestly stop pursuing Nate v poirier and just do Nate vs luque. Idc if it’s a one sided beating that’s a more exciting fight

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 7 of 14 Winners, 5 Perfect, 475 Points   |   Tied for 3195th

Cannonier vs. Brunson
Jared Cannonier, DEC
Cannonier got taken down so many times against Glover back in the day. after that he's gotten an attitude for instantly trying to get up or sit around with his butterfly guard. Gonna be interesting to see if Brunson is gonna revert back to running around chin in the air when he realizes he can't take the killa gorilla to the mat.

Pichel vs. Madsen
Mark O. Madsen, DEC
at the time of writing (27th dec) my man Pichel got 111h in 2 weeks played Project Zomboid. rooting for Pichel but I think baldie is gonna make it boring as ****.

Modafferi vs. O'Neill
Casey O'Neill, DEC
Modafferi wanted a retirement fight and Dana wanted to see her bleed.

Ulberg vs. Cherant
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
This ain't going past the 1st round... Unless Ulberg has improved.

I think there’s a lot of talent on this card but compared to the ppvs we’ve gotten recently I can see how it can be seen as dull. Definitely needs one or two more fights added but I still think it’s a great card. Really looking forward to rojo v Phillips, O’Neal vs modaferri, main event, cannonier vs Brunson, mana vs Lawrence, Hernandez vs moicano among others.

I don't know if It just me, But Im not really vibing with this card, Don't really care for any of the fight but Brunson vs Canniner tbh, My biggest problem with this card is that it ain't free, $65 is expensive, $65 can buy you a lot,,  No wonder most MMA fan stream the fight, Those $65 adds up and espaccly with card like these, This is more of a fight night card, Then a PPV

I should be intrested in Izzy vs Rob, I just find it hard to be interested after Izzy just merked him, It should be a good one, just hard to be intrested, Kyler Philips and Casey O'Neil are intresting prospect, Just that it takes two to tango, I wish they just had better opponents


But I say, It could be fun, a lot of the fights have potential to be fun, I just don't care about them, I say the only ****  numbered UFC card was UFC 255, And I know it was **** before hand, It was just obvious, you book boring fighter on a PPV, what you expect .  They Had Valentina and Chookagian in 2 diffrent bout on the main card, And Had Shogun vs Craig 2 as another fight, That card was never going to be fun,

I kinda get what your saying duck. Other than the main event the only fight I can't see not being a banger is Philips vs Rojo. Both are all action fighters. Not to say the rest of the fights are bad but I think we were spoiled with the ppvs last year so this card looks mid in comparison.

This card is lame for a card that is $65, If a card is a PPV, It should be worth $65, This card just isn't, I find some  fight night more interesting and their free, Cannonor vs Brunson and Whittaker vs Adesanya are the only fight i want to see, The rest are just meh fights to me, I most likely still watch because I love fights, But it a illegal stream or Pub for me, 

The thing is that $65 can buy you so much ****, just for the entertaiment side,  a PS4-5 game or 6 month of netflix, Why would anyone pay for this card, I honestly don't get why not everyone just illegal stream the card, UFC cards are so expensive, It stupid to pay for card like this

Also, Rojo vs Kyler is a squash match, Love watching Kyler, But it hard to get exited when he fighting someone who can't really beat him beside fluke. I like competive fights
