Sato is one of the most boring fighters on the roster lol. He's competent but he's extremely passive. All he ever does is look for an opening for his left hand but he doesn't do anything to draw his opponents attacks, he just waits and waits hoping they will run into him.

Tell me, when you get into the UFC in 5 years, are you going to be a boring fighter like Hadzovic or an exciting fighter like Sato?

I get the sentiment but that's debatable. I'm not sure there is anyone in the world that enjoys Ilir Latifi's fight style.

Castañeda vs. Gafurov

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 4 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 1138th

I won't lie I like this fight more than the originally scheduled matchup for Castaneda. To me this is a more difficult fight to predict and will probably be more competitive. 

I like turtles and sometimes I like a change to the fight card such as this one. I am going to lean towards Gafurov but Castaneda is a talented and experienced fighter himself. I see Gafurov doing just enough to win a competitive fight by mixing in some takedown attempts and clinch work against the cage to win enough points on the judges scorecards. 

Both of these guys should stick around and enjoy a long career in the UFC regardless of who wins or losses this fight in my opinion.

I'm not sold on guram yet. I think he beats Jamie but I can't make much of his fights. Except that he can have extremely close fights with top fighters. He's a good prospect but he's a bit old.

@TLRulebender Hello! New user here! I also think Kai has got The tools to beat Amir! His striking IS very crisp and he nullified Askarovs takedown attempt pretty Well and Askar is an Animal on The ground so It is reasonable to think that his TD defence Will hold up agains Albazi too. I also think that 5 rounds favoures Kai :D

Kai has 88% takedown defence and from all the fight I watch he is hard to takedown, I don’t think Albazi is the next level grappler where it don’t matter you takedown defence, I rate Kai takedown defence more then his striking 

2 fights ago agaist Askar Askarov prove my point

People are soon going to realise who Amir Albazi is. They are also soon going to realise how over rated KKF is. Can't wait to see all the excuses soon and watch people start saying how they knew Albazi was the dark horse of the division all along, and how they knew KKF was never that good and how his cardio sucks.
