Tf? Who called France a third world country? They literally just haven't had an event there b/c it was illegal and then COVID hit. Pretty sure France is one of the wealthiest countries in the world

Gane vs. Tuivasa
Ciryl Gane, SUB, R2
I'm hoping for Tuivasa by KO, but I think the ground will be where we see the widest gap in skill and Gane will exploit it.

Whittaker vs. Vettori
Robert Whittaker, DEC
Bobby Knucks all day, wouldn't put money on it though

Di Chirico vs. Kopylov
Roman Kopylov, TKO, R1
I lost a big bet when Di Chirico KO'd Buckley, so I always root against him now. I can admit it.

Gomis vs. Errens
William Gomis, TKO, R2
Gomis beat Hyram "I Surrender" Rodriguez once, and Errens beat him twice. Gotta get a deeper pool of cans in Europe.

I guess no shoe drinking celebration for Tai in Paris. With grasshopper like moves Gane will avoid the close distance with Tuivasa and even when they exchange in close range I believe Gane will clip Tuivasa and finish it via g&p. Tai will cover up. Ref stops it. 

Man,for Whittaker VS Vettori. I was Whittaker fan,but that changed with couple of last Vettori performances. It does not bother me at all,that Vettori only has 2 Ko wins and not even in UFC. He is just like Gane, will use all his tools,be smart and win a competitive close Decision. Really liked his output in Hermansson fight and Jack's last fight was super smart and technical. In a fight with Hermansson as I remember this fight was so close to to be stopped!!! Vettori will use all of his skills and outstrike,maybe outwrestle Bobby and get that Dec. He does not need to win by finish,but as far as decision it's all about Vettori (IMHO).

Hmmm a lot of people are counting Makdessi out, I actually think his experience gets him a decision. He's looked good lately

Yeah because they have the same build and fighting style, and that was problem for Egger vs Cortez

If Perez can avoid the judo throw she should win, plus as we know.. dogs almost always open up the card

Are we comparing Perez to Cortez now? Perez is twerking because she knows she doesn't have the skills to be in the UFC and thinks that's what got her to the table. Thing is she doesn't have the looks either, fans are left baffled as to why she was signed.

No Cortez is better but they have similar builds and fighting style. And what I got from the twerking is that she's comfortable, twerking is her emote she didn't just start doing it today

I hear you, but I think the skills gap between Perez and Egger is probably overstated. Egger's UFC wins are over Shana Young and JRC. Anyone with halfway decent wrestling should be able to roll over her. One of these girls is definitely gonna get exposed.

@ModestMan,as you posted about Makdessi, I was looking at the same minute exactly at the stats of those two fighters. This one is tough to decide the winner. It will be straight stand up fight, I believe with no grappling involved. It's who has a better chin and output. Both fighters last 4 fights have gone to a Dec and I think this is what will be the outcome of this fight as well. I still slightly lean towards Haqparast. He is yonger and more consistent UFC fighter today than Makdessi. Makdessi is tough,but I see this Decision going to Haqparast. Who knows,maybe he even clips him bad during this fight.

A little ass shaking didn’t hurt no one. Sure she probably isn’t ufc caliber but I can at least appreciate her for what she is. Of course it will make some people upset but I don’t mind it personally

Guys, I have no trust in Perez. Honestly I watched couple of her fights against absolute bums and for now she only fought (don't know who). This is completely Egger's fight and she comes out of it as a winner either by Ko or Sub. I'd say Ko.
