Oh boy the pressures on me now lol. Good luck bro, I’m very confident in Costa by finish but still Im feeling the pressure of people counting on me lol. Might be a round 2 submission, round 2 knockout, round 1 knockout, or even something in the third round. Hell maybe even a decision (though that’s very unlikely) but I’m 95% sure Costa is gonna win. Idk if you’re going to bet on the exact method but yeah he’s pretty much a lock (let’s hope lol)

Well, it doesn't matter now.  The ****** missed weight by 10 pounds.  How anyone would come to the states from Brazil and miss weight by that much is beyond me.  Inexcusable.

Ozzy and Joey

If Joey can take Ozzy down, this fight won't be much of a battle.

If this stays on the feet, I think Ozzy knocks his teeth in.

Neither are special but I feel like someone is going to die.

I don't like to predict DWCS fights b/c I find it more fun to watch it and enjoy the fights since a +500 underdog can end up winning. The odds for these fights are usually wack af

Holy ****, on souza’s insta, he said he had already cut 36 pounds… and still was 10 over. So we know he’s a weight bully but god damn he’s ******* 170 cutting to 135??? Jesus

Wait if he cut 36 and still missed wouldn’t that mean he’s 180? ***

Are all the fights still on for this card even with Souza missing weight by a huge margin?

I would have liked to see Farid smash him because to me a 10lb weight miss is inexcusable. If it’s a 46lb cut then you should fight at your own weight class instead of trying to make an actually impossible cut

Pyfer KO1, guaranteed

Easy way to tell someone never watched Pyfer fight.  Pyfer is better on the feet than Ozzy.

Pyfer is hands down better than Ozzy.. and if you're trying to suggest Pyfer wasn't clearly winning that fight vs Dustin I suggest you pick a new sport.

I have to say that I agree with Ronnie. Ozzy is KO or bust and Pyfer has never been KOd
