I think you should consider adding Usman ITD for this one. I guess he gets the job done until the 3rd. 
I wouldn't put Acosta though. He could have lost his last fight against Vanderaa. The other picks are fine for me.

I'm with Corey on this one. Vadim was good on the feet and landed some nice leg kicks, but he got dominated on the ground by Corey.

Pitbull vs. Nurmagomedov
Usman Nurmagomedov, SUB, R2
If Usman was fighting Patricio, it would be a more difficult match for him, but Patricky is not on the same level of his brother. I watched an interview with Patricky and he said he has been saying the same thing Charles said about Islam (about the rankings).

Aliev vs. Fallon
Imamshafi Aliev, TKO, R1
Aliev should win this pretty easily. Take him down and smash with some gnp. Btw, is this guy the brother of Nurullo Aliev, right ?

Newman vs. Taulker
Jordan Newman, SUB, R2
Newman by domination

What changed? A couple months ago you said that Khusein was semi-legit and fought like the 23-0 guy he is, now he "might be ****" ? I don't think he's bottom tier trash fraud like his brother, but I'm pretty sure he'd lose his debut against anyone good (not Jammal Emmers...) He's def got a padded record and I'm 99% sure he's a fraud, just not a horrible one

I watched more of his fights. Idk he does a lot of stuff I don’t like, such as giving up top control to go for heel hooks. Sure, it works against the .500 jobber on the regional scene but won’t fly against a semi decent ufc fighter. Plus the inactivity and never fighting just isn’t a good look. Also, him and his brother are like megastars and completely loaded so fighting isn’t their main concern at all. Lot of red flags. I do think he will beat emmers (if he even makes it to fight week) but not sure he’s gonna do much. He reminds me of Ottman, looks good on paper but doesn’t care about fighting since he’s got all the money in the world.

Nemkov vs. Anderson II
Vadim Nemkov, DEC
in the first fight corey was clearly winning but i still think nemkov is the better fighter and i think the adapted gameplan plus possibly keeping this one standing i think he can piece corey on the feet

Anyone see the weigh ins?

Fallon looks pretty huge next to Aliev. 

Could be an upset?

I doubt it, Fallon is old and hasn’t been fighting good comp. I think it’s a setup fight for Aliev since he is usmans teammate

This is a setup fight for Aliev so I severely doubt he loses. Like Lmaonnaise said Fallon is old and not that good, but I hope he pulls off the upset. Would love to see it

I'm sure he'll win but i'm not entirely sold on Aliev yet the way I am with Makhachev, Umar, Usman etc

He got caught pretty deep in a triangle choke a couple fights ago and Fallon has a 3 fight submission streak right now and a lot more experience.
