Quinlan - Waters

Predictions: 1 of 2 Winners, 0 Perfect, 50 Points   |   Tied for 3996th

Unpopular opinion but I keep seeing Waters exposing Quinlan in my head, I hope I’m wrong

Me either. The only good quality he has is his massive size. Besides that nothing else

I think people are betting on Buday due to size instead of skill, technique, and experience, which all lean toward Collier.  I've got Jake for this one.  The bigger they are....

Guys, Buday isn't all that but Collier is dog****. He's an obese MW with little heart and poor cardio, and he's coming off getting finished by Chris Barnett due to those qualities.

Martin is just going to lean on him and get him tired, and I don't see how Jake is going to stop that.

I'm taking Buday because although a developing fighter, he seems to get a little bit better each fight. He was letting his hands go much more in his last fight compared to when he fought Barnett. Having size on your opponents is one thing, but Buday actually leans into it and uses this to his advantage. That's one quality I like about him especially given the fact that he's not crazy skilled. 

Collier on the other hand is just some fat gut who used to be a much better athlete until he stopped caring. Outside of dusting Chase Sherman, which pretty much every heavyweight fighter on the roster has a decent chance of doing, his time at heavyweight has been abysmal.

@theesnake buday should’ve lost to brzeski, who is much worse than collier is. Imo brzeski is one of the worst heavyweights on the roster

In case someone forgot how Buday was on his last fight:

..in my eyes one of the biggest robberies of '22.
And here too Buday had both size and weight advantage - still got bombed and Brzeski made it look easy.     Not sure who'll win yet, but I know for sure this is going to be a ****** fight.

Brzeski vs. Buday was scored on damage much in the same way Chito vs. Font was. Im not saying it was the correct decision but that is very clearly how that fight was scored.

Id have to go back and rewatch the entire fight. I remember Buday very clearly losing the volume battle but every time he landed he was hurting Brzeski bad. 

Pretty sure I bet on Buday in that fight and remember being very happy he won because I wasn't confident at all with how the fight played out.

Yeah that’s how the fight went. Part of the reason buday landed big was because Breszki has no defense at all

Yeah it was a robbery, Brzeski definitely won that one. I picked Buday but it's a toss up for me. Collier has more skills but as was pointed out his heart is a bit questionable. I also think the small cage favors Buday in getting a hold of Collier and winning by 15 minutes leaning tower of Pisa.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 5 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 1437th

Song vs. Simón
Ricky Simón, DEC
can definitely see song landing something sharp early, but i still think ricky is gonna be relentless in his td pursuit and that's been something that has given song problems in prior fights.

Borralho vs. Oleksiejczuk
Caio Borralho, DEC
i'll say caio finds early td's and works hard trying to take the back and squeeze a choke, but can't finish it and tries to hug it out for the rest of the fight while michal looks for the one big shot.

Brundage vs. Vieira
Rodolfo Vieira, SUB, R2
first two min will be very telling. either rodolfo can get inside and bully or he's gonna be creamed by big shots. brundage isn't used to making it into r2 so i'll say he can't keep vieira off him and gets tired.

Erosa vs. Padilla
Julian Erosa, DEC
getting ko'd so recently gives me some pause, but i feel like his volume will compensate and prevent padilla from shaking off the ring rust.

Cortes-Acosta vs. Rogério de Lima
Waldo Cortes-Acosta, DEC
de lima can turn it on sometimes and look totally lost at other times, i'll say that salsa boy can keep it clean and avoid the bursts.

Quinlan vs. Waters
Josh Quinlan, TKO, R1
waters is huge at 170, but i feel like that's gonna lead to quinlan forcing him into a phonebooth where his length will be a detriment.

Buday vs. Collier
Martin Buday, DEC
part of me feels like collier is gonna be way too active for buday to keep up, but buday figures to have the power advantage?

Durden vs. Johnson
Cody Durden, DEC
let's hedge here and hope to be wrong. durden scores td's in all of his fights and charles has been taken down in all of his fights.

Egger vs. Alekseeva
Stephanie Egger, SUB, R2
interested to see how the clinch works out between these two, but the big weight miss has me thinking that irina won't have the tank to keep it up.

Newson vs. McGhee
Journey Newson, DEC
respect to mcghee for stepping up on short notice, but based on his competition i don't feel comfortable saying he marches in with a tko.

Cowan vs. Horth
Jamey-Lyn Horth, SUB, R2
cowan's main attribute is her size and physicality and after so much drama around her scheduled debuts i'm kinda doubting how easily she'll be able to apply these advantages. "folks online" have been talkin about horth's striking being legitimate so i'll say she gets the better standing and then jumps on a sub once hailey tires.

Buday used to be a fat gamer nerd who weighed 330 lbs before fighting. They said that on the broadcast before one of his fights
