Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 0 Perfect, 475 Points   |   Tied for 2389th

Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, DEC
Awesome fight here, I think Magomed is gonna be faster and will probably have a technical striking edge. Jan should not be underestimated though

Gustafsson vs. St. Preux
Alexander Gustafsson, DEC
This fight should have happened years ago. Both guys haven’t looked good at all lately, but Gus has been getting finished by guys like Krylov while OSP got finished by Boser. I think Gus will have better output and win a decision

Silva vs. Brown
Erik Silva, TKO, R2
Silva looked great on the contender series. He looks strong and dominant on the ground, he’s on the older side but I don’t see it being a huge factor considering he’s only had 10 fights

da Silva vs. Salvador
Vinicius Salvador, TKO, R1
I became an instant fan of Salvador on the contender series. Da silva is exciting but he’s not ufc ready

Ankalaev is about to send Jan to retirement, Rakic didn't do it? So Ankalaev is the end of the road for Jan here so letme get it straight 
Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, KO/TKO, R1
Then after the fight Jan basicly will go on to put his gloves on the canvas will sum up his UFC run as not the best but a good one. And then everyone will remember him as the guy who became a champion cause a) The best LHW at that moment was busy preparing for severely weakend Thiago Santos and b) He didn't fight Jon Jones and c) Reyes was going on a downhill trip which no one expected at that time. But if Mateusz Gamrot and Mateusz Rębecki won't shake up the UFC he will be regarded in Poland as the best our country has ever produced next to Joanna and Gamrot.

Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 0 Perfect, 460 Points   |   Tied for 2575th

I don't see it happening personally, but wanted to see what the rest of you all thought on the subject?

Here's why I don't think Jon Jones will be making his UFC return in Decemeber: http://oddsmokermma.com/2022/10/17/jon-jones-why-its-unlikely-the-mma-legend-will-return-at-ufc-282/

We will see right before 282

Predictions: 9 of 12 Winners, 1 Perfect, 530 Points   |   Tied for 1392nd

I remember there was a fake UFC 282 poster which presented Stipe vs Jon as the main event so something's up. Or maybe they wanna force NGannou to actually fight Jones while NGannou still isn't fully healed. I honestly think Jones should not come back cause its too risky for the man. While if he WOULD succed and stay on top until retirement thats litteraly for guy who's very old in fight years. I think Jones after Reyes fight could get finished by pre-Teixeira fight Jan, Rakic, Ankalaev, Prochazka. And currenty at heavyweight we have guys like Gane, Tuivasa, Aspinall. Tybura (He wouldn't finish Jones, Jones would just get robbed of a victory by judges) and N'Gannou of course. Of course if it was peak Jones he would absolutely dominate and maybe he would hold both titles and defend them. But hes not at his peak anymore. Thiago and Reyes did more than enough damage to make Jones not a threat in a Heavyweight Division collision.

Yes that is true…but still don’t think it’s PPV worthy in the year 2022

Procházka vs. Teixeira II
Jiří Procházka, TKO, R4
All the respect to Glover but i feel Jiri is more well rounded and my brain cant let me pick at guy whose gonna be 43 in a 5 round fight

Błachowicz vs. Ankalaev
Magomed Ankalaev, DEC
could go either way, Ankalaev on a good run and has age on his side

Ponzinibbio vs. Lawler
Santiago Ponzinibbio, TKO, R2
Lawler is shot and Ponz should have enough for this

Gustafsson vs. St. Preux
Alexander Gustafsson, SUB
i simply cannot go against one of the main guys that got me into MMA and probably my favourite fighter.. but the return has been hard to watch and he should be resting in Stockholm with his feet up (and OSP should prob quit too) a fight i dont want to see and shouldnt have been made 😂🙈

Pimblett vs. Gordon
Paddy Pimblett, SUB, R2
Paddy train to keep on rolling.

Shahbazyan vs. Lungiambula
Edmen Shahbazyan, TKO, R3
ill keep the faith with Edmen

Quarantillo vs. Hernandez
Billy Quarantillo, TKO, R3
not sure on this one

Till vs. Du Plessis
Darren Till, TKO, R2
Think Till might catch the high chin earlyish

Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
BIGI Boy to land something huge early

Curtis vs. Buckley
Joaquin Buckley, TKO
Buckley hits hard and was fairly unluckly last time out, and the Hermansson performance wasnt great for Curtis..

da Silva vs. Salvador
Daniel da Silva, DEC
50/50

I like Paddy because I think it funny and have fun fight, I usually don't really like fighter who fight people who are a lot worst then them, And especially is they chat ****, But Paddy is a rare exception for me

Actully hard fight for Paddy IMO, I think unless Paddy just meme finishes Gordon, Gordon could put a pace on him, Paddy was losing to Leavitt before the finish if my memory was correct

Should the main card be;
Jiri vs Glover
Jan vs Magomed
Bryce vs Illa
Lawler vs Ponzinibio
Paddy vs Gordon

Actually not that bad of a main card
