Prediction Comments
Predictions: 10 of 14 Winners, 5 Perfect, 705 Points | Tied for 1779th
Jon Jones, DEC
I can't stand the stuff that Jon Jones does outside of the octagon but I want him to win here because he's a legend. I think he's gonna have problems with the movement of Gane until he closes the distance and takes Gane down.
Shevchenko vs. Grasso
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
Shevchenko will win a close decision. Grasso is very very good.
Neal vs. Rakhmonov
Shavkat Rakhmonov, SUB, R2
This line is wayyyy off but Shavkat should sub him but don't be surprised if Neal pulls off the upset. He's a dog.
Gamrot vs. Turner
Mateusz Gamrot, DEC
I have to pick Gamrot to win a decision just because he can go for takedowns and probably get them but don't be surprised if Jalin hurts him with a knee or something early.
Pickett vs. Nickal
Bo Nickal, SUB, R1
Who the hell is actually picking Pickett? Come on lol. Jamie seems like a cool guy so it'd be awesome for him to pull off the upset and piss off the UFC matchmakers and Dana but there's no chance.
Garbrandt vs. Jones
Trevin Jones, TKO, R1
Garbrandt is so done. I want him to win because he should win this fight and he's the better fighter than Jones but his chin will fail him again.
Brunson vs. Du Plessis
Dricus Du Plessis, TKO, R2
Brunson is gonna shoot in for takedowns and he will get a couple but when round 2 comes he's gonna do it again and fail. Dricus will knock him out on the feet. I think we've seen the last of Brunson sadly.
Araujo vs. Ribas
Amanda Ribas, DEC
Ribas can go for takedowns here and I think she gets them. She has ok hands but Araujo can strike pretty good. There is a chance Vivi goes for takedowns and Ribas doesn't do much and loses a decision but I'm sticking with Ribas.
Marquez vs. Barriault
Julian Marquez, TKO, R1
Marquez is gonna enter the pocket and put Barriault away as soon as possible. Marquez will gas if he can't and Marc will take over.
Machado Garry vs. Song
Ian Machado Garry, TKO, R2
Garry by anything he wants. Song is legit awful.
Martinez vs. Saaiman
Cameron Saaiman, TKO, R3
Saaiman will tko a gassed out Martinez. Mama is looking like a bust after looking so damn good on the regional scene.
Penne vs. Ricci
Tabatha Ricci, DEC
Ricci will rinse and repeat takedowns. Penne isn't a bum but she's just old now. Both aren't good at striking.
Basharat vs. Blackshear
Farid Basharat, DEC
Blackshear is a good fighter but Basharat is a legit prospect. Give me Farid. The Bash Bros are coming.
Radzhabov vs. Ribovics
Esteban Ribovics, TKO, R1
Loik has fought the much better competition and is durable but Esteban has POWER in his hands. I think Esteban clips him early.

My assumption is that now that the Chimaev hype is somewhat waning and he's solidifying himself as a contender, they're trying to push Bo to become the next big thing.

UFC has always done this, Bojack is good and they know he's gonna demolish his opponent. I'm excited to see him fight but when you're calling out Chimaev and you get (or choose) to fight Pickett, it doesn't really interest me in the slightest.
I think I'm being a little harsh on Bojack, but man you wanted to fight Chimaev and some how Picket fight comes together. I want him to fight someone that will get us interested.

He cleans the toilets for 1 Dollar a day. Saturday hes dropping his last 5 dollars on Kenan, Pickett, Neal and Grasso hoping to win 8K so he can finally move out of the homeless shelter and stop sharing a bedroom with Jonathan Reynolds
