And All I’m saying is people are too confident in a kid who almost got Ko’d by Kenon Song and Jordan Willams, maybe Ian can win. All I’m going to say I won’t be suprise if D-rod win, getting crack and wobbled because bad striking defence is bad, and that guy being -250 is wrong

Let Me Help YOU guys out a wee bit
Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 1 Perfect, 480 Points | Tied for 1242nd
Jailton Almeida, SUB, RD 1
You know what time it is... don't front ! Bidi boy ( fat boy ) vs Athletic boy
Rodriguez vs. Machado Garry
Garry, TKO/ KO, RD 2
This fight is NOT going the distance. D-Rod will try to get on his bicycle throughout the fight and then turn around to face Garry and will be KO'd.
Carl Ulberg vs. Ihor Potieria
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
Easy knockout for Ullberg ? Yes! Will it be ? I don't know... Carl is a knucklehead that likes to play with his food. What happens when you wait too long before eating... yeah the runs. Lets hope he is motivated !! And the opponent's 1st name is pronounced as*****I think ?
Stamann vs. Silva de Andrade
Silva de Andrade, KO / TKO RD 1
I think Stamann is determined to go out on his shield .... his way. He wants to see those bright lights staring at him as he wakes up from the canvas.
Matt Brown vs. Court McGee
Court McGee, KO RD 1
I'll take a KO at end of Round 1 Please !!! Yeah... he might be IMMORTAL but that doesn't mean he is still good. He has a 4 min gas tank... then like those video games when energy bar depletes to a small bit. Good night Matt !
Ji Yeon Kim vs. Mandy Böhm
Bohm, DEC
I know Kim is supposed to win BUT I think she's ready to reveal why she lost so many fights in a row. I am rooting for a most boring but decisive win for Bohm. Let it ride baby !!
Gabe Green vs. Bryan Battle
Bryan Battle, KO RD 2
Green can lose on the feet and on the ground. Bryan likes to finish on the feet or the ground. I wonder how Gang Greene feels when he sees the last two losses are the same two guys fighting each other on main card.
Jessica Rose-Clark vs. Tainara Lisboa
Tainara Lisboa, SUB RD 2
Clark reminds me of a chick in Walmart who looks tough and will even act tough but expect everyone else to fight her battles. But you know that deep down she feels like a punk. more tatoos please... means " I am tough"

Jailton Almeida, SUB, R1
Early leans here guys on a difficult card to pick. I may change some picks after some more tape study and post weigh in's but this is the way I am going for now. I won't be typing long breakdowns and will try and make this short and sweet. I think Rozenstruik has changed his method recently and now charges forward rather than sitting back and waiting. Regardless I think Jailton will be too fast for him, and despite his predictable takedown setup with the kick in front of a takedown I think he will be able to get it down. Once he does it really should be over fast. Either way the under 2.5 is a good bet.
Smith vs. Walker
Johnny Walker, DEC
Another tough one to pick. I just have not liked what I have seen from Smith one bit recently. And missing weight when weighing in as the backup shows that his professionalism is slipping. I think he is distracted by too many out of cage issues and I really think he is on the decline. I don't think he has the power to put out Walker and 3 rounds favours Walker rather than Smith. If it goes to the ground Smith is very dangerous but I do not think he has the wrestling to get it there consistently. I can see Walker keeping this standing, staying safe and picking Smith apart. Walkers chin always makes betting on him a worry though, but I think he is the side here.
Rodriguez vs. Machado Garry
Ian Machado Garry, DEC
D-Rod is someone I was high on. But like Smith I think he is on the decline. I have not been impressed by his recent performances and against a really talented striker with grappling upside I think he loses. Garry does get rocked often because he is so hittable but D-Rod does not really have the power Song has and his damage is more accumulative. I think Garry pieces him up as he slows down and may even get a late finish.
Ulberg vs. Potieria
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
Ulberg is the real deal. Take out his gassing out fighting Kennedy who I rate and who he was absolutely smashing until he death gassed and then over compensating by taking Cherant to a decision I think he is the much much better striker here and even his wrestling is not bad. He should take out Ihor here who short of landing a lucky punch I do not think has a chance.
Means vs. Morono
Alex Morono, DEC
Again I really like Means but I feel he too is slipping. Morono on the other hand seems to be getting better each fight. I don't read too much into the last loss to Ponzinibbio and I think he will be faster and better than Means. As long as he can keep it standing and not end up on his back I think he wins this.
Brown vs. McGee
Court McGee, DEC
Tough one to pick. Both are good. Both still winning despite their age. But overall I think Court has been fighting the better and younger competition and looking good doing so. Wells can KO anyone so not surprised how that fight ended but here I think Court just wrestles and grinds out Brown. If he does not wrestle and tries to strike with Brown like he did with Condit this could be a bad night for him
Williams vs. Sherman
Karl Williams, TKO, R2
Williams should rag doll Sherman, take him down again and again until Sherman is exhausted and get a TKO finish.
Stamann vs. Silva de Andrade
Douglas Silva de Andrade, DEC
Stamann's recent wins have not been impressive to me. Even Lacerda who is mainly a BJJ specialist had success against him. Stamann does not wrestle enough in my opinion and Andrade has a good ground game. I have been impressed with his recent fights and if this becomes a striking match which will need Stamann to get in the pocket because of his short reach I feel DSDA could really hurt him.
Levy vs. Rodriguez
Natan Levy, SUB, R2
Another fight I have my doubts about. I think Levy has a very big advantage in the grappling but how good is Pete's takedown defence? No idea. But he does train at a good gym. So really hard to know. If this is a 3 round striking match I do not know who wins. My gut feeling is that Levy who is more technical keeps this at range, and when Pete crashes the pocket he gets a takedown. That said this could go horribly wrong and Levy could get put out by a wild strike. Tricky fight.
Kim vs. Böhm
Ji Yeon Kim, DEC
I think Kims record is misleading. She should have won more than one of the recent fights she lost. As for Bohm she has shown nothing. I think Kim has both the striking and grappling upside. That said WMMA so Bohm probably shows up for the first time and knocks out Kim in 3 seconds like Yan did to Andrade.
Green vs. Battle
Gabe Green, DEC
I really like Green here. Battle's last fight against Fakhredinov was alarming. Not only because he had zero takedown defence but also because he just could not adapt or find any kind of an answer. It was just frustrating to watch. People forget that Green is a good wrestler and he will likely use that here. Even his striking is better than Battles in my opinion. He has fought the much better competition and looked ok too. I like him here.
Clark vs. Lisboa
Tainara Lisboa, DEC
Officially off eht JRC train. Lisboa is a striker by trade and I am going to pick her to outstrike JRC here. Her Dumont fight was really interesting to watch and I can see her doing the same to JRC. Even if JRC wrestles and gets Lisboa down I do not think she keeps her down. And on the feet I think Lisboa pieces her up
