Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Chris Daukaus
I am not a casual. Jairzinho is a big powerhouse and he is a real threat to Chris Daukaus. But the thing is, ignoring his past Kickboxing record, because this is not Kickboxing match, Jairzinho always got lucky in MMA. He was clearly getting beat by Alistair Overeem until the last second when Overeem got overconfident and threw his guard off before getting caught. But we all saw how easy it is to beat Jairzinho. So, if Chris Daukaus has trained a lot and really smart, he will beat him too. I might be wrong alright, but I don't believe in Jairzinho. That's the only reason I select Chris Daukas.

Till vs. Du Plessis
Dricus Du Plessis
The last time Darren Till fought was September 2021, before this fight. When you have this gap, you forget how it feels to get punched in the face. If you don't want to forget, you have to train everyday. You have to fight in the gym. You have to spar. You have to hit your opponent. You have to get hit in the face. But all this time, Darren Till is living in the shadows of Khamzat Chimaev. This friendship, I like it, but Khamzat and Till are two different guys. Darren Till is on a 2 fights losing streak and the other guy is on a 5 fights winning streak. We cannot neglect these stats. I don't see Khamzat as a serious guy. Maybe Khamzat is a serious guy, but anybody who stays around him are living in a fantasy world. All these time, the hanging out with Khamzat, I feel like Darren is feeling like Khamzat and getting too much comfortable. If Khamzat is not even serious, he's still winning fights on the record books. There's only one Khamzat and Darren Till can never be that guy. Of course, Khamzat can help him train, but Till will have to fight alone. I don't know how much training has Darren Till done. So, I don't feel comfortable picking him specially against a guy who's very active and on a winning streak. So, Darren Till loses this fight.

Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Jan Błachowicz, TKO, R2
Magomed doesn't have the greatest chin and has been clipped in the past. Jan takes this easily.

Pimblett vs. Gordon
Paddy Pimblett, DEC
Gordon trains with the Gracie's. I think he will be well prepared for a ground game.

Mitchell vs. Topuria
Ilia Topuria, DEC
I like Bryce but Topuria has better striking

Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R2
2 straight losses by KO. If this is a striking match Chris losses.

Shahbazyan vs. Lungiambula
Edmen Shahbazyan, DEC
I feel like if Edmen doesn't win this he is out. The pressure is on to win. Dalcha just has power striking.

Quarantillo vs. Hernandez
Alexander Hernandez, DEC
History says Hernandez wins after a loss

My inside sources at the UFC are saying Lawler is out with an injury. Fight cancelled.

I’m kinda happy about it, I don’t want to see him get merked like Ferguson and Frankie did this year also

I just rather see him retire at this point, He not UFC level anymore

Technically Robbie does whatever the **** he wants so if he signed contract to fight Ponz then why wouldn't he fight? Maybe he would finally realize that his time in MMA is over? And don't you ******s dare to say Ponz would just kill Robbie, first he would have to find a way to survive himself because when Lawler fights even at 40 yo you gotta be prepared for a rumble in the modern jungle

Why did the UFC match Saaiman with Ronnie Lawrence? Are they trying to kill the kid, did he steal a hooker from Dana or what is going on?
Much more reasonable matchup to give him another debutante in an unknown guy from Florida who at best was the 3rd or 4th last fight on his regional Florida fight cards.

Yeah that original matchmaking made zero sense to me. Saaiman needs like 3-4 more years before he’s even on Lawrence’s level. They wanted to throw him in the deep end right away

Robbie looked injured or sick or something going into the fight with barbarella, glad he passed if hes hurt it takes too long to heal once you grow up.

I think Paddy vs Gordon is more competive then people are making out to be, I think Paddy wins because I think he just athletes bully him to a meme finish, But skill wise Gordon might be better

I’m pretty 50-50 on it, might switch to Gordon because skills do pay the bills most times
