@ayy he also beat a guy whos nickname was "throw hands for bands" which definitely gives him a shot at beating "Lord Kong"


on the real I just looked at Greg Velasco and he fights straight cans. Plus that win was a split decision. By no means am I saying Mayes is the go to in this match up. I just think that Abdelwahab is almost a shot in the dark pick because anyone he's fought is straight dookie butt

Also is anyone else worried about how Drew Dober will perform..? He fought 3 months ago and probably got a concussion from Terrance Mcckinney

I thought his lights were out at one point. Seems kinda soon

Velasco is a decent prospect tho. His comp isn’t great but he’s a solid fighter. I haven’t seen the fight but it could have been a bs split decision for all I know

Dober has a crimson chin. I could see alves cracking him but he’s likely gonna win by submission if anything

@ayy fair enough 

and absolutely insane how he ate those blows and came back and won. I think fighting this soon will make it easier for Alves. Feel like all it's gonna take it is a couple blows from Alves to stun him then it's gonna hit the mat and Alves is gonna sub

hamdy's gas tank is pretty **** from the little tape i've seen... breathing super hard after first... yeah i get he's a olympic wrestler... but can he keep up that wrestling pace for 15 mins on a weeks notice?... i really don't think so... so far haven't seen anything from tape to inspire me thinking otherwise.... not a lot of tape to go off of.. so i could be completely wrong.

A part of me think Blood Diamand is going to meme KO Cosce,  Cosce has bad cardio, I don't think he's wrestling is that good and they not submission threat ,People are too harsh on him for losing to  Jeriamih Wells, Wells is a beast, Losing to him isn't bad at all, Wells is a legitimate blackbelt in Jiu-jitus and he put McGee to sleep

I think the UFC tailor made this fight for Blood Diamond tbh, Because he could be a star, Not confident at all because Blood Diamond only had 4 MMA fights

^ thank you, Cosce has 1 round of cardio and isn't a UFC fighter. 🤷‍♂️

Wells had to stick to Blood Diamond and shoot 5 takedowns back to back.

also hamdy is listed at 6"2.... really don't think thats accurate... seems shorter.... wouldn't be surprised if Mayes is towering him at weigh ins.

Wells isn’t a good wrestler tho. He just uses his strength to slam guys down. Cosce isn’t good but he can at least wrestle better than wells

as long as Mayes avoids the big power shots from hamdy in the first & a few takedowns attempts... i can see hamdy gassing hard & eventually getting tko'd in the later rounds. 

yes i'm trusting the guy with the experience edge. reach edge. height edge. striking edge. id assume cardio edge. also has fought in front of crowds before. and had a full camp. 

vs trusting a guy with bad cardio, on a weeks notice, 3-0 in mma vs literal cans, underwelming tape. good power, bad technique, "good wrestling". questionable defense. and making his debut.

Going from Matthew Strickland (who's built like a bean bag chair) to Mayes in 2 months is an insane step up in competition. Really don't think Hamdy's ready for UFC yet.

just struggling to see a path to victory for hamdy here unless he catches him with a big power shot in the first rd or pulls some god tier cardio out of his ass on a weeks notice and controls him for 15 mins on the ground.

If anyone thinks Morono will win, pleae speak now. I just see Alex Morono as such a flat footed Fighter.  burger man here is explosive besides his low IQ of having his hair infront his face.
