This is the weakest FN's line-up of the year so far and it's not even close to me.

It is pretty bad.  However, sometimes bad on paper turn out to be good in reality.

Btw is Dern vs Yan a confirmed main event like 100%? I'm still trying to hold out hope that maybe Evloev vs Mitchell or something will get announced for this card

They gave Cody a layup, hopefully they keep giving him grapplers/wrestlers. If he somehow loses this fight, he’s done with the sport.

The strange thing about Cody is he's never been completely knocked out inside the UFC, it seems to come down to bad technique defense wise and the fact that if you were doing drills in the gym and the coach said alright let's practice some straight punches, Cody would just start throwing hooks.

Rewatched that Cody Vs. Rob Font bout hours ago and it’s crazy that people think Cody G is shot. Those first two rounds before Rob Font started establishing that jab he was looking very good. In this match up he’ll have the speed, boxing, power, movement, kicks and cardio advantage here in his back pocket. Rani will 100% have the jujitsu advantage but I think the wrestling is 50/50. Love that Cody has moved over to the Xtreme couture gym, it’s knew as a gym that gets fighters back on track but regards of this Cody has an outrageous amounts of advantages over Rani it should lead him to a win.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 380 Points   |   Tied for 1547th

Dern vs. Yan
Mackenzie Dern, SUB, R1
Carla freaking Esparza destroyed Yan on the ground. That’s all I need to know to pick Mackenzie. If Xianon defends the takedowns I’ll be impressed

Allen vs. Jotko
Krzysztof Jotko, DEC
Close fight. Allen looked worse though in his last fight. Malkoun has really good wrestling but not much else. I think Jotko outpoints him

Garbrandt vs. Yahya
Rani Yahya, TKO, R1
Unrealistic pick for sure. But I bet “No Chin” finds a way to blow it

Ricci vs. Vlismas
Tabatha Ricci, DEC
Pretty good fight here, Vlismas has a definite striking advantage. But if Ricci can get it to the ground she will definitely win the fight

Stoliarenko vs. Chandler
Chelsea Chandler, DEC
Honestly depends if Julija can pull another armbar out of her ass. She’s very good at that though

First impressions: 

Vinc Pichel is gonna **** up Ronson, how is he even still in the UFC. 

I actually think Guido could KO Costa, who might have an even worse gas tank than him

You love to see it. I am proud to have started this card off with a ratio of 0 to 1, got the ball rolling to where it is now.

We should honestly start using this as a way to show our disapproval with a card. Everyone should go downvote Holm vs Viera, it's so dumb that it has a ratio of 18 to 3. Wish I had the idea to bomb it back then cause man that card was a ******** waste of time just like this one

Derns wrestling is so ****, tempted to take Yan here who will be much better on the feet.

Dern's striking has been making decent improvements since going to Jason Perillo

Not to compete with the level of Xiaonans tho. I think she wins but dern is going to need to jump guard asap

Derns offensive wrestling is actually a joke and her hands are ****, she needs a miracle sub by pulling guard or Yan’s fight iq being room temp.

Derns wrestling isn’t very good, but her hands have gotten much better. The difference is night and day from the Rodriguez fight to the Torres fight. Still not very good striking but it’s better than what it was

Honestly I don’t think you need good takedowns to takedown Xiaonon, her wrestling is awful. That Esparza fight was embarrassing, I’ve never seen such a poor effort in defending takedowns from such a highly ranked fighter. She looked clueless. Granted I know Carla is a top 3 wrestler in the division but still

We also saw you can outstrike dern but the judges are going to give her the fight regardless so
