Yeah I was gonna say. On paper this is easy money for Silvana, I just don’t see Karolina being able to handle that power. The last time she went against a women with serious knockout power she got KOd in the first round

I'm going back and forth on the Riddell vs moicano fight. What are your guys thoughts? I originally went with Riddell because I think he'll be able to keep it standing and he's the better striker but now I'm leaning towards moicano because he has more ways to win & Riddells chins is getting a little sus even tho his last two losses were to great competition

I’m on the moicano side but idk. If he wants to stand the whole time he will get caught at some point. If he grapples I think he will win

I think it'll be competitive but usually fighters are never the same after the kind of beating Moicano took from RDA. Plus, by the time this event rolls around, that will only have been 8 months ago. So, I think Riddell can drag him into a war and beat him up on the feet with tons of hooks and leg kicks.

Im a prophet now YEET. Now we wait for Stylebender to go down. I have to switch my predictions now for Izzy win so he loses and I retain my unfortunately prophet. (It sucks for me cause im delusional Adesanya fan but it is what it is)

Is Frankie going to use his wrestling for this one?  Cody Durden had success against Chris in their fight with the takedowns from what I remember.

The reason that fight was a draw was because the  judges gave Durdan a 10-8 round for lay and prey in the first, Frankie could possibly do that for longer, He held down 1st round Chito if that count for something, Frankie will be an idiot to not wrestle in this matchup, That he's only path to victory, BTW, I'm still taking Guiterez, 

Also a big opponent gap, Guiterez has a 7 fight win streak while Frankie lost he's last two, But Frankie lost to the 4th and 6th guy, But Chris best wins in the UFC is  Danna Batgural, But you do have to respect the win streak
