On paper, Wonderboy is more proven and he's ranked 6th while Holland isn't even ranked. This is a big step up in competition at welterweight and I think UFC are doing it for a reason. Dana White really likes Holland, I'm sure others in positions of power do too, and this main event slot against the number 6 in the world is probably a favor for Holland stepping in short notice against Khamzat. If Holland wins he gets a big jump in the rankings and if it goes to a decision, I think the fight will be close enough that judges will be bias towards the Holland side.
I'm cynical about MMA judging and them judging in favor of the significantly younger guy they can build up makes a lot more sense than going with the 39 year old vet in a close fight. Holland has the reach and height to stay out of the way and land on Thompson. Might have trouble getting the finish but a decision for Holland will be my prediction. He's been five rounds before at middleweight so it's not out of line to say he could do the same at welterweight.

Neal could easilly have beaten Wonderboy if he had anything except head strikes in his arsenal, like a low kick for example. He walked himself in range to kick to the legs or body of Wonderboy time and time again as Wonderboy was circling off the cage and just leaning away from the head shots.
Even simply head strikes could have been enough if he wasn't so timid and took a chance and exploded a couple of times on Wonderboy since he's very explosive (unlike Luque who is more plodding and relies on his chin to win a "technical firefight"). As good as both Neal and Luque are I feel they don't have a plan B and it cost them.

Maybe, I'll take a shoot at the over 1.5 on the Tuivasa fight. Like Lisac said, maybe they'll feel each other before starting to heavily brawl. I wish Tai had taken this fight next year, cause I'd be more confident to pick him.

2. Schnell/Nicolau is a coin flip; I don't agree with the odds.
3. Will be very impressed if Bam Bam pulls this off.

this is like michael jordan visiting your local basketball park and giving out basketball advice, where else in this world does this **** happen?
you've got the most successful MMA betting man on the planet giving out a free breakdown of the majority of this card and what do you do? what does your ungrateful broke *****ass do?
you throw shade and disrespect at me. you bite the hand that feeds you.
sorry guys, but a few more of these snarky annoying comments from rah and i'm putting my analysis behind a paywall for the foreseeable future
