Magomed Ankalaev, TKO, R3
Ankalaev is on the come-up, Thiago has seen better days. Second easiest fight on the card.
Moraes vs. Song
Yadong Song, TKO, R2
Marlon used to be very good, but he's been on a slide. Yadong is a workaholic and too well rounded. I think Yadong gets it done with ease.
Caceres vs. Yusuff
Sodiq Yusuff, DEC
Very tough. Alex always surprises me, but never impresses. Yusuff seems too grounded to let Alex win. He lost his last one to a very good fighter, but very dominant til that point. Tough one, will mostly avoid.
Rountree vs. Roberson
Khalil Rountree, TKO, R2
Last time Rountree lost by sub, was (one time) back in 2016. This is Roberson's best skill. I think Rountree's size gets it done by KO or Dec.
Dober vs. McKinney
Drew Dober, DEC
Very good fight, yet tough to predict. Dober is very good but lost two in a row to 2 tough opponents. McKinney seemingly cant be stopped, I think Dober figures him out.. either by UD or by Sub.
Silva vs. Pereira
Bruno Silva, DEC
Vet experience wins this one, and Bruno has never been KOd.. Alex's number one strength. Tough one here.
Semelsberger vs. Fletcher
AJ Fletcher, SUB, R2
Fletcher making debut against 4-fight ufc vet. Fletcher was dominant, 9-0 with last 6 ending R1 finish, most subs/some KOs. Only 1 win by dec (u). Hard to bet against him, although popular pick is Sem.
Aldrich vs. Robertson
Gillian Robertson, DEC
I don't really know much about the women, please don't cancel me.
Jones vs. Basharat
Javid Basharat, SUB, R2
Basharat is making debut, and Trevin has had mixed record with a few UFC fights under his belt. With how dominant Bash was, I think he solidifies the hype.
Jackson vs. Kirk
Damon Jackson, DEC
Vet experience will get the job done. Kirk hasn't had a good win yet.
Mazo vs. Maverick
Miranda Maverick, DEC
I don't really know much about the women, please don't cancel me.
Brundage vs. Lungiambula
Cody Brundage, SUB, R3
Brundage just seems more consistent, I think he wins by arm bar catching one of Dalcha's wild swings
Cannetti vs. Moutinho
Kris Moutinho, TKO, R1
Kris balls are just too damn big.
Nchukwi vs. Murzakanov
Tafon Nchukwi, TKO, R2
Azamat making debut, fights prior weren't against anyone good. He still might win, but taking the dog here. I think Tafon lands a clean one.

You aware Ankalaev has 0 subs on his record? You gotta start doing better research instead of using your feelings. Ankalaev is known for ground and pound and control. Only sub on his record is a sub loss

Predictions: 9 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 575 Points | Tied for 1370th
I finger Karl Roberson at -130. He has a villainous clawhold. Roberson can mislead the achievement.
Dober vs. McKinney
I appoint Drew Dober at -165. He has a decent five point palm exploding heart technique and a talented armpit slam and also a nasty sleeper slam. Dober must threaten the rival.
Mazo vs. Maverick
I select Miranda Maverick at -335. She has a xenotropic uppercut. Maverick is gonna neutralize the feat. Вот, где собака зарыта!
Aldrich vs. Robertson
I take Gillian Robertson at -130. She has a lascivious mindset and a wretched piledriver and also a poignant spinning back elbow. Robertson can best the previous pitfalls.
Semelsberger vs. Fletcher
I elect Matt Semelsberger at -200. He has a captivating uppercut and an integral osoto gari. Semelsberger must block the senses.
Nchukwi vs. Murzakanov
I adopt Azamat Murzakanov at -185. He has a kosher heart stomp and a scintillating inverted atomic drop. Murzakanov isn't about to claw the crowd noise.
Moraes vs. Song
I want Yadong Song at -260. He has a xenophobic lumberjack sweep. Song won't quench the TV audience. Believe it!
Cannetti vs. Moutinho
I embrace Kris Moutinho at -155. He has a unique indian deathlock. Moutinho must unsettle the cutman.
Jones vs. Basharat
I prefer Javid Basharat at -150. He has a nasty five point palm exploding heart technique. Basharat will likely tweak the corner man.
Silva vs. Pereira
I elect Alex Pereira at -185. He has a jinxed vulcan nerve pinch. Pereira isn't about to outsmart the chosen one.
Brundage vs. Lungiambula
I am sticking with Dalcha Lungiambula at -130. He has a zesty palm block and an intelligent spinning back fist and also a homemade scissors sweep. Lungiambula could locate the enemy.
Caceres vs. Yusuff
I go with Sodiq Yusuff at -265. He has a passionate elevator hook sweep. Yusuff will likely knuckle the opposition.
Santos vs. Ankalaev
I am going with Magomed Ankalaev at -600. He has an exhaustive chin. Ankalaev is gonna vandalize the production.

Kris Moutinho, SUB, R3
I think Kris gets going late. Sooner, the better.

Based on rewatching the fights and not the end result on paper, Song Yadong doesn't hurt people with his hands on this level. It's a fact, he hit people and they still walk him down. Chito, Kyler, Casey Kenney and even Arce which got him caught with a head kick. They all get hit and keep moving forward. He could very well hurt Moraes with his hands today, I never said it's a lot for him to lose.
Song lands alot of punches on guard as well

I rewatched Moraes vs Aldo last night, and the way you people talk about Moraes now is how the commentators (and like you people) talked about Aldo then. 3 wins later, everyone is back on Aldo's d*ck.
Candidly, fight fans are some of the worse sports fans in the world because most of them can't fight. They truly don't understand what's going on. Losing doesnt mean you are done, how you train, how you feel dictates if you're done or not.
