Predictions: 2 of 2 Winners, 2 Perfect, 175 Points   |   Tied for 4018th

Gane vs. Tuivasa
Ciryl Gane, TKO, R3
A French heavyweight beat down is incoming. Gane has everything. Jabs to the head and body that set up power straights, slapping leg kicks, spin kicks, teep kicks, knees, elbows and a wild submission game. Tai has speed, boxing, loads of power, some rudimentary Muay Thai in the clinch, and a strong fat base. I see Gane slowly chopping Tai’s legs dancing around the center of the octagon picking the increasingly desperate Tuivasa apart before finishing him with an onslaught on punches and leg kicks against the fence. Eerily similar to the Gane V Lewis fight, difference being that Tai has more weapons at his disposal and therefore slightly better opportunities emerge for him.

Whittaker vs. Vettori
Robert Whittaker, DEC
A decent matchup that needed to happen for the slowly dying middleweight division. Whittaker plain and simply has more. His karate stance will allow him to freely use his weapons to shred through Vettori’s meat and potatoes style of boxing and flat footed stance. Vettori will be more than desperate to grapple but aside from a few caught leg kicks and milliseconds of control against the cage, he won’t find too much there. Robert won’t have an issue on the feet as Vettori seems to be the objective worst striker he’s fought in a very long time. Not to say Vettori’s terrible or even bad in that regard, but neither his power or technique overcompensate one another. Yeah, Rob tears right through Marvin with a sturdy jab and fast kicks while Marvin hangs failing miserably to cut off the cage grazing with the occasional long right hand and having double legs stuffed.

Imavov vs. Buckley
Nassourdine Imavov, DEC
imavov is the better fighter on the feet and the mat buckley just has some decent power and a unique arsenal that throws his opponents and off guard and catches them with something clean imavov is not letting that happen expect a dominant performance here similar to how k holland ****ted on buckley

Gane vs. Tuivasa
Ciryl Gane, SUB, R3
i love tai but man what a terrible fight for him seriously how does tai win this i cant even see him landing that lucky shot gane is gonna win by however he wants he could outpoint tai by using his quick movement and good shot slection and timing he could overwhelm tai in the later rounds and find a Ko or he can take tai down and drag him into deep waters because tai is not pulling a francis and looking like kahbib

Andrade vs. Fiorot
Jéssica Andrade, DEC
great fight for manon she either wins this faces chook and then gets the title shot or loses here learns from it and comes back even stronger andrade is a tough chick who swings hard as **** with those wanderlei like hooks and she has great BJJ with a great submission game i dont think manon will be able to handle all of this yet i think we see a similar bout to valentina vs santos here but with andrade not taking as much damage and securing the w

Haqparast vs. Makdessi
Nasrat Haqparast, DEC
if nasrat cant beat an old makdessi its time to cut him

This card gets better and better. Kickboxing stud Cedric doumbe said with a win this weekend, he is signing a contract to the ufc and making his debut on this card. He’s basically French alex pereira (minus the freakish power) and he’s only 29. He’s a mega prospect

Interesting, he'll only be 2-0 but with enough grappling experience he could do well, he's at BW though so **** might get tough quickly if he doesn't adapt to MMA quickly

Yeah same here. I wonder who he’s getting for his debut. Granted, he has to win first but obviously he’s going to.

It would be a big step up, especially because he can wrestle, but doumbe vs lazzez would be 🔥

the striking in that ******* fight would be amazing. I think Doumbe beats him on the feet but with Lazzez's takedowns he used against Razak, it would be 50/50 as **** bro

It would, once his tdd is tested, they will probably make that down the line. Lazzez is a tough debut for most people, especially someone with 2 pro fights.

I'd love to see that fight made man. I hope they both enter the ranking soon so that fight is inevitable. And you're right about Lazzez, he's got a lot of tools to use so it's definitely a tough fight for a debuting/younger fighter

Plus, doumbe isn’t even 30! So they don’t need to rush him at all. I think he could develop into someone really scary for all of 170
