Just throwing this perspective out there
Predictions: 12 of 14 Winners, 6 Perfect, 815 Points | Tied for 17th with 1 other
I cant argue Rose didn't get better across those 6 fights even though they were against the same few fighters. But I think Carla and the variety of different competition she's been beating over the same time frame is being majorly slept on.
It's not like it's not against good competition either. I have Rose right now but I'm gonna be flip flopping on this one for awhile I think. Carla has more wins than Rose has fights. Her resume is very very hard to ignore.

I'm pissed off Shogun isn't retired yet, I don't want to see him fight again, The 2nd Paul Craig fight should of been an eye opener to him, I say OSP has good fights with the people he fought recently, The OSP fight is going to be "how many time do we have to teach you this leason, Old Man"
I will also say Lauzon vs Cerrone kinda grown on me for what it is, An competitive old man fight, I rather see that, Then both of them fight young killer, And also Cerrone and Lauzon both have 15+ bonus so they fun to watch

Charles Oliveira, SUB, R3
I wish oliveria would get Lasic eye surgery so I could be 100% confident in this pick. Gaethje is basically the same fighter as porier & chandler with worse bjj defense. I think it'll be a war back & forth but oliveria will be wearing out gaethje with knees and teep kicks to the body & he'll be able to get the back of gaethje
Namajunas vs. Esparza II
Rose Namajunas, DEC
Carla's only threat is the takedown & even if she takes her down I don't think she'll be able to keep Rose down & Carla won't be able to keep that pace for 5 rounds. The apex with the smaller octagon would benefit Carla better but I think rose will be able to jab **** her for a decision win..
Chandler vs. Ferguson
Michael Chandler, DEC
If Chandler doesn't fight like a complete spazz like he did against gaethje then he should be able to beat Ony Ferguson. Can't call him Tony because he has no T left. AYO
St. Preux vs. Rua II
Ovince St. Preux, TKO, R3
Both guys are sad to watch. Hopefully we see a beautiful double ko
Cerrone vs. Lauzon
Joe Lauzon, TKO, R1
I just see Joe doing to Cowboy what he did to Diego Sanchez at ufc 200, using elbows & tkoing cowboy against the cage. Joe is coming off a win against a decent contender & I think Joe's time off probably benefits him more. In the time joe has been off, cowboy is 0-4-1 with 3 tko losses. He just got tko'd by Alex Moreno for Christ sake. WHY ARE SO MANY OLD DUDES ON THIS PPV.
Brown vs. Williams
Khaos Williams, TKO, R3
I see randy brown winning the entire time until khaos finds that weak chin of Brown.
Trinaldo vs. Roberts
Francisco Trinaldo, TKO, R3
This is a toss up for me. Roberts will probably win but he reminds me of a welterweight Jai Herbert
Chiasson vs. Dumont
Norma Dumont, DEC
Has Dumont gotten better since she got 1 punch ko'd from Megan Anderson or has she just fought ****** strikers since then? I'll trust that she's gotten better but I wouldn't risk betting on her
Royval vs. Schnell
Brandon Royval, SUB, R1
Schnell gets finished alot & Royval always goes for the finish. If he didn't fight like such a spazz I'd be confident on placing that -225 bet.
Ivanov vs. Rogério de Lima
Blagoy Ivanov, DEC
I don't see de Lima being able to ko Ivanov
Fialho vs. VanCamp
Andre Fialho, TKO, R1
Poor Cameron.
Cortez vs. Gatto
Melissa Gatto, TKO, R3
I like the dawg in Gatto. Cortez's only threat is the takedown. Gatto is more dangerous everywhere & shouldn't be the underdog
Rodrigues vs. Vergara
Kleydson Rodrigues, DEC
This should be a great fight but Kleydson is the faster dude
Godinez vs. Carnelossi
Ariane Carnelossi, DEC
I'll take the chick who's clearly on the sauce. Hopefully loopy wins tho
Newson vs. Garcia
Journey Newson, SUB, R3
I initially had Fernie because I saw his ko but didn't realize that was his only ko. Journey could get ko'd but I just see another dwcs fighter gassing out after trying to get the ko in the 1st

Justin Gaethje, KO, R1
It's seriously 50/50 for me in the Main Event. Charles ground game is insane but Justin has unreal power, good boxing and a chin like no other. It's either a Charles 2nd/3rd round Sub or a Decision win. However, if it's Justin he's got 2 rounds to beat Charles and there's a good chance he could do it.

Rose Namajunas, DEC
If you’re thinking this fight will be like their first one you’re 100% wrong. Rose will keep her range and dominate on the feet and have much improved TDD as well as getting back to her feet ability. Esparza would have to dominate a decision win to take the belt
