Actually I take that back, by that point I think Cody's coaches have figured out why Cody was being violated by so many guys, because he's not fighting smart he's constantly pissed. And I am willing to believe that whoever is next for Cody (unless its Umar) he is gonna get grappled into UD, at least grappling is what I know Team Alpha Male members for

They’re not gonna book kang vs Cody. Kang just had a kid anyways he’s not gonna fight for a little bit 

@tl Cody recently went to dagestan for the end of this camp and also linked uk with team Allstars while he has been gone. I think he’s gonna become a wrestler next fight which if you ask me, is an awful idea

Yeah I don’t think amount of training or game planning can fix Cody. Usually when you try and totally remake urself as a fighter it never goes well. Plus he’s already done irreversible damage to his chin. He’s definitely lucky arce pulled out tho I think that was a hard matchup; especially if he was planning on wrestling to win

Cody needs a layup fight. At bantamweight those are hard to come by, I think he should become a point fighter as he is very fast but he can’t control himself when he gets hit

I just can’t think of any good fights for Cody. Maybe Anheliger? But he’s coming off a loss so idk

They should do that. I don’t think Cody will be on the roster 5 years from now so might as well give Javid a name to build himself on

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 8 of 14 Winners, 3 Perfect, 500 Points   |   Tied for 4671st

Jones vs. Gane
Ciryl Gane, SUB, R4
Jones will be sacrificing all the immense physical advantages he enjoyed at 205 lbs. That, and three years out of the ring is a long time.

Shevchenko vs. Grasso
Valentina Shevchenko, TKO, R4
Father Time is undefeated, and the day is coming when the Bullet gets nailed - BUT THIS IS NOT THAT DAY.

Pickett vs. Nickal
Bo Nickal, SUB, R1
Bo goes for the sub to protect his hands.

Kirk vs. Ribovics
Esteban Ribovics, TKO, R3
Tough to pick against this guy

Turner vs. Hooker
Dan Hooker, DEC
I may have to revisit this one. Surprised it's so far down on the card. Just shows how stacked this one is, I guess.

Throw Khamzat Chimaev vs Belal Muhammed on here as a number one contender fight and this would be an even better card. Both guys don't have fights.  I don't know what the hell Colby is doing so those two guys need a fight.

From what I know they wanna make Khamzat fight at 185, and Colby vs Belal "I forgot his name again" Muhammad is the fight they want to make as Belal is very vocal about matchup with Colby
