Alex Hernandez
Predictions: 11 of 14 Winners, 7 Perfect, 790 Points | Tied for 134th
This fight is in his home town in Houstan.
Why have they put him on the early prelim, not even the prelim. The early prelim.
I think the UFC knows he is going to lose and have put him out of sight.

I will stand to disagree, I think he has the best chance to be Izzy because he's taller, closes the distance that eliminates kicks and he stays behind his jab just like Blachowicz did. I'll keep that secret sauce in my back pocket tho

Israel Adesanya, DEC
Rob should make this fight more competitive and I think we'll get a legit war between these two. Izzy takes the decision but it'll be a banger.
Lewis vs. Tuivasa
Derrick Lewis, TKO, R1
Tai's run has been fun but I think Lewis will extend his KO record.
Cannonier vs. Brunson
Derek Brunson, DEC
Brunson's giving this title run one last shout and, while his wins of late can be discredited due to holes in the oppositions' games, I think he doesn't get enough love. If he can close the distance on Cannonier and keep his chin safe, it should be a fairly routine 30-27.
Hernandez vs. Moicano
Renato Moicano, SUB, R2
Moicano will expose Hernadez's lazy attempts at wrestling and snatch up his neck in this one.
Haqparast vs. Green
Bobby Green, DEC
Pandemic Bobby Green has been one of the highlights of MMA since 2020. If he explores his wrestling more in this fight, he should be able to overwhelm and outpace Nasrat.
Arlovski vs. Vanderaa
Andrei Arlovski, TKO, R2
The Pitbull is living proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks. The calf kicks here should weaken Vanderaa's base for any hopes of wrestling. Arlovski keeps it standing and gets his first KO win in 7 years.
Modafferi vs. O'Neill
Casey O'Neill, DEC
Love Roxy. Casey is the real deal, though, and this should be fairly one-way traffic.
Phillips vs. Rojo
Marcelo Rojo, TKO, R3
Rojo is one of the most exciting all-action fighters in MMA. Predicting a FOTN between these two men with Rojo stopping Phillips late.
Ulberg vs. Cherant
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
Cherant's chin is a big concern for someone so young. Can he grapple his way to victory here? Maybe, but Ulberg's devastating array of strikes and relentless output will be the difference.
Lawrence vs. Martinez
Ronnie Lawrence, DEC
The pace at which Ronnie grapples is absurd. I like Mana a lot but I don't think many 135'ers would be able to keep up with Ronnie.
Malkoun vs. Dobson
Jacob Malkoun, DEC
Malkoun is my sleeper pick for the night. I think he's more impressive than folks give him credit for. More than just "Rob's teammate."
Silva de Andrade vs. Morozov
Sergey Morozov, DEC
D Silva is one of my favourite bantamweights but Morozov will probably eek out a decision via wrestling.
Wells vs. Diamond
Blood Diamond, TKO, R1
Haven't seen much of Blood Diamond but his name is cool so he wins in R1.
Knight vs. Grishin
William Knight, DEC
Knight by heaviness.

Predictions: 11 of 14 Winners, 7 Perfect, 790 Points | Tied for 134th
1. Lawrence
2. Phillips
3. Moicano
4. Cannonier by KO
5. Green
6. Ulberg KO
7. Morozov
I think that has a very good chance of hitting for a payout of about $2000
