He's not the best at it.

Wood didn't look outrageously small compared to Rosa, shouldn't be any weight bullying in that one. We didn't get to see Mokaev and Johnson square up because Mokaev pushed Johnson and they had to be separated.

Jiri took Volkan's soul, some knockouts change a fighter for good. This is one of those unfortunate situations where I don't believe he will recover.

Jack looks determined as ****, haven't seen him smile once during weigh ins or ceremonials, very unusual for him.

Jack's problem will always be strikers, the man lost to one of the worst fighters on the roster in Sean Strickland. That's not good.

You're not kidding, Bisping actually managed to bring down my hype a smidge lol.

I wouldn't use a "terrible striker' to define Strickland. He's just more one-dimensional jab heavy compared to flasher guys like Pereira and Izzy.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 11 of 14 Winners, 4 Perfect, 650 Points   |   Tied for 383rd

Blaydes vs. Aspinall
Curtis Blaydes, DEC
I wonder why Curtis is the underdog here.  What does Aspinall have that Overeem, Dos Santos, or Daukaus don't?  Maybe a little more speed?  Maybe he hits a little bit harder?  That's not going to do it for him.  Blaydes has a hell of a chin, who has only lost to the two hardest punchers in the UFC.  Better Wrestler, more cardio, probably can compete in the boxing/kickboxing area.  I don't see how Tom gets in.


Hermannsson vs. Curtis
Chris Curtis, Dec
Jack has Belal Muhammad levels of Southpaul-itis.  How much better is he than Brenden Allen?  Maybe a little bit, but Allen is bigger.  I think that left hook to body right hook upstairs will be money every time Jack wants to come in.  Hopefully a fun fight.


Pimblett vs. Leavitt
Pimblett, TKO, R3
I feel like they are the same fighter but Pimblett is just way better version of it.

Allen beats Curtis 7 times out of 10 in a rematch.

Maybe, but I feel like there still is something there.  I don't know, not trying to offend Hermannsson, but Curtis is a pretty bad matchup when it comes down to the shallow stats.

Maybe a 3rd or 4th round tko.  But I don't think Tom is picking up the win here.

Roast me later if I'm wrong but I'm going with Pimblett by finish under 2.5, Aspinall by finish under 3.5, Herbert by KO under 2.5, Mokaev by finish under 2.5, and give me Craig v Oezdemir under 2.5. $City$ Goodluck to everyone betting!
