you do realize dalcha is also coming off of 3 straight losses against waaaaaaay easier opposition compared to edmen's, right? how ******* dumb are you dude, seriously

edmen has also switched to xtreme couture for this fight which is a camp known for taking in extremely raw talented dudes, sharpening up every facet of their game and bringing their careers back on track

stop talking about mma you ******* bum

yes i'm laying massive chalk on the way more talented guy who hasn't lost to a bunch of bums, is way younger, way bigger, has better cardio, better chin, better striking and has recently made the switch to a very reputable mma gym that's going to sharpen up his overall game including his grappling

sounds pretty fair to me

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 10 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 660 Points   |   Tied for 115th

Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, DEC
Great card. If only jiri didn't get injured this card would be even better but 2022 is cursed so it is what it is. Ankalaev has more ways to win & once he starts getting his takedowns Jan will start to worry about that & won't be as affective on the feet. Ankalaev 49-46 he might get booed for a boring performance. One thing to take into consideration is both guys were training for a 3 round fight so we'll see how their cardio holds up

Pimblett vs. Gordon
Paddy Pimblett, SUB, R3
I get having paddy as the co main event but seeing Jared Gordon as the co main on a ppv is kind of hilarious. I don't see anywhere that Gordon is better. He's too slow on the feet and I believe paddy is the better grappler

Ponzinibbio vs. Lawler
Santiago Ponzinibbio, TKO, R2
Rip robbie Lawler. This will not go well for him

Till vs. Du Plessis
Dricus Du Plessis, TKO, R3
Till is the most overrated fighter on the roster. Wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't even make it to fight night because there's always something with him. Maybe he drops Du Plessis at one point while he's crashing forward but Till has terrible finishing ability. Du Plessis has more heart & more ways to win

Mitchell vs. Topuria
Ilia Topuria, TKO, R2
Ranked featherweights are cursed so this fight will either get canceled or end in a no contest due to eye poke/ nut shot/or freak injury. If none of those things happen I think topuria will ko Mitchell. Topuria is the only dude in the top 15 I see that has a chance against volk

Shahbazyan vs. Lungiambula
Edmen Shahbazyan, TKO, R1
Ufc is trying to give edmen a free win so hopefully he doesn't screw it up for himself

Quarantillo vs. Hernandez
Billy Quarantillo, DEC
Hernandez is only good at being the hammer but can't be the nail. I also think he'll have trouble with the speed difference dropping down to featherweight

Silva vs. Brown
Erik Silva, SUB, R1
Not sure how good Erik Silvas cardio is after rd 1 so if the fight makes it out of that it could get interesting.

Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
Daukaus is just a melted ice cream cone with 0 range awareness.

Curtis vs. Buckley
Chris Curtis, TKO, R3
Honestly I have no idea. Wouldn't be surprised if either guy wins but I think Curtis will be landing body shot which will open up Buckley up top later in the fight.

da Silva vs. Salvador
Vinicius Salvador, TKO, R1
Salvador hits like a truck and Da Silva is probably the worst fighter on the roster

Perrin vs. Rosas Jr.
Raul Rosas Jr., DEC
Wouldn't be surprised if perrin gets the upset but Rosas looked good against a good opponent on dwcs so I'm going with the hype train

St. Preux vs. Trócoli
Antonio Trócoli, TKO, R1
This is an OSP fade I feel like he's just showing up for paychecks now a days

Saaiman vs. Koslow
Cameron Saaiman, DEC
Both can crushers but saaiman had a full camp so I'm picking him

Best parlay pieces are Ankalaev, Ponzinibbio, Shahbayzan, Pimblett and Rosas Jr. 

Jay Perrin has a tattoo of the joker, that immediately tells me he is an idiot. 

Also really like Topuria, think he'll just be way too strong for Bryce to hold down for 3 rounds if he even gets him down.

Yo I think we should wait for Chaotic to have a word in this one, he already Jinxed it for Izzy and Do Bronx. I think Anka wins but I don't wanna be that guy but I also think round 1 if Jan catches Anka we have : And once again.

jreynolds and tartara virgin losers instantly downvoting me and andrew's posts

quick reminder, every single genius in the history of humankind has been vilified and doubted

even jesus ******* christ was called a liar and put on a cross


me and andrew have fully accepted this reality and as pure bred geniuses we're ready and willing to take on the abuse that comes with the responsibility of being a genius

Exactly baremaras. 

Statistically most people lose money to the gambling industry but there are a few select outliers, geniuses, who are hated by the rest and couldn't possibly be understood. 

We are that small minority.

Chris Curtis when he's losing a fight displays some of the most embarassingly bad sportsmanship you'll ever witness from a grown man. He throws a temper tantrum every time lol.

Ponzi is a good parlay piece this week. He's not losing to this version of Lawler.

I hate to do this. I will never do this again.

But I agree with all your picks this time.

Topuria, Ankalaev, Shabazyan, Ponzi, Pimblett, Rosas all confirmed by me to be winners this week.

Also Rozenstruik and Saaimon. Likely Buckley and Driscuss too.

Another card to smash and make bookies homeless.
Combined with the Bellator chalk this will be the week I end the bookies and retire to the Bahamas 🇧🇸

Why do the KO brothers (AKA Daukaus bros) just line up to be KOd week after week. I don't understand.
