I like Chandler but I'll be surprised if he can last 3 rounds with Dustin. He's a year or two from retiring to the commentary booth IMO. Chandler is the only guy to make TFerg seem like a capable grappler in the last few years, and he KO'd Hooker after a brutal 5 rounder with Dustin and before Arnold Allen did the same thing to him. Tall, relentless grapplers with serious submission threats are Dustin's kryptonite. That is not Chandler.

I only see Izzy winning in the first 2 rounds if Pereira comes in like Paulo Costa... Unlikely, though.

I think Alex will go easy cause it's 5 rounds and he might gass. 

If Izzy finishes this fight, it'll probably be in the 4-5 rounds.

Down votes really are just another person trying to piss you off because they got nothing to do but hate themselves 

These people aren't part of a forum, they are useless individuals who have nothing to contribute.

I don't get the love for him here in this match up, He's lost twice in a kickboxing match against this guy and unless you think he's shooting a power double or pulling guard it will be a kickboxing match again.

Petroski is decent. Not sure why he gets so dismissed. He was a huge underdog to Maximov of all people. His ceiling probably isn’t upper rankings, but Thurman probably isn’t his ceiling. 


I hate making my bets too early in the week, especially parlays where I’m betting on four weight cuts I haven’t seen yet, but also watching Azaitar slowly go from +140 to -120 has been killing me.
