It might be underselling him to call Fiziev just a good "striker". Dude's Petr Yan's striking and muay thai coach. He's good in the clinch game too, and has defended nearly every UFC takedown thrown at him, as Duck said. There's no reason to think RDA can just go in there and hold him down.

My final pick

Nina Nunes (šŸ† 60% confident)
Calvillo is washed. She won at the new 125lb as a newcomer from 115lbs by beating Jessica Eye who had a bad weight cut. Then got destroyed by Chookagian, Andrade and quit against Lee. She now has an Only Fans and probably does not want damage to her face. She is also at Syndicate. All red flags. I feel Nina has decent enough take down defence and a get up game (I mean she lost to Dern coming back from having a child and Suarez and beat Gadelhia which is a good win) and wrestling is Calvillos only path to victory. The new weight class should actually male the weight cut easier. I think the wrong person is favourite and the UFC want Nina to win, especially after Amanda did the TUF season.

I also think we should take a look at RDA's recent resume: only three wins in five years. Against EagleFC's own Kevin Lee, Paul Felder on 4 days notice, and Moicano on 5 days notice. 

He's beaten one opponent who had a training camp in FIVE YEARS.

Izzy also has a long frame and knows how to use his length and athleticism to defend takedowns. He is usually on the correct side of the height advantage at his weight class also. Up a weight class it was a little different story. All that being saidā€¦. Fiziev is 5ā€™8 and is fighting a good grappler his same height. Does that worry you any?

I know right? Lol it's a field of landmines 

As DamienHandel says maybe we should just bet the underdog blindly in women's mma. Can't be much worse than betting the favourite and watching them lose to a split decision or get arm barred in the first 15 seconds šŸ¤£

Iā€™m actually curious to see what the ROI is on wmma Underdogs.

Iā€™m seriously considering picking Casey

Iā€™m really not confident in my pick, Iā€™m really not, but Antonia is legitimately super awful. 

Iā€™ve heard this quote from Twitter once in regards to Antonia being married to her coach: ā€œHe trained one of the sisters, and groomed the other.ā€

Antonina can't stop a take down to save her life and Courtney can't get one. Antonina should be favourite and that's a problem.  I'd just bet dog and carry on with my day.

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 455 Points   |   Tied for 1015th

it's not like he was 6 foot  and than just got shorter, He was alway 5 foot 8, He has great takedown defence as a 5 foot 8 guy, I'm more worried about RDA being a way better wrestler then everyone Fiziev has fought, I also think it very likely RDA gets a takedown or two, But i Also think it will take more then a few takedown to get Fizeav out of their, It's rare that a fight is one or two takedown and it's over, 

I think RDA path to victory is to gas Fizaev out with wresling, Mix in with his striking to make it tricky, I think Fiziev can got 5 easy if he fights his fight, But can he go 5 or even 3 in an RDA type fight and that the question, Fizeav is one explosive boy, And early Fizeav is a monster, He need to slow down Fizeav to win

I don't expect Armen to do more then Gadzhi did to Borralho in the fight if we are not counting breaks he took during the fight and lost it anyways, ha ha.

Lets name it ground play win by Borralho?
