None are locks. There are good plays but nobody is a lock imo

Maybe on another card there is

ignore LAMmatt guys, there's lots of people who will try to be "prophets" trying to predict a Nunes loss so they can farm internet points in the extremely slim case that Nunes loses

these people are just typing up nonsense

There are no locks, we all have the right to post opinions and obvious facts like that one.

This is MMA. There is no such thing as a lock. But if there were, there  would be "fewer" locks, not less locks. 


Hope there's more finishes than this

I think Nunes can lose this fight, But that only if she show up like she did against Pena first time out, She gassed out in a round 2 in that fight, It don't matter how amazing Nunes is, If she has a round of cardio in her, 

Still picking Nunes, But might chuck a few dollar on Aldana late tko props because Aldana is a finisher and if she show up like the first Pena fight I think it cashs

Someone sell me on Jasmine.  I'm right on the fence already.  Miranda hasn't looked great.  Jasmine usually does better than I expect.  Huge size difference.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 400 Points   |   Tied for 447th

Imavov vs. Curtis
Nassourdine Imavov, DEC
I'm solely betting on Imavov getting the takedowns but if not, Curtis will win.

Jasudavicius vs. Maverick
Miranda Maverick, DEC
too lazy to study this one, but I will say that the nick name "Fear The" is a reference to your motha******* parlays boys.

Zahabi vs. Aoriqileng
Aoriqileng, TKO, R1
Chinaman ain't gonna let Zahabi be a tactician here.

Bilder vs. Nelson
Blake Bilder, SUB, R2
*** is this matchmaking? I'm sorry I don't believe in magic

Dvořák vs. Erceg
David Dvořák, DEC
Erceg's last win was just a capitalization on a huge ass mistake. I think Dvorak is mentally and physically strong enough to get a win here while Erceg gets very valuable experience at the highest level of the sport. I always trust the person with the better level of experience rather than momentum especially when it's a grappler.

Belbiţă vs. Oliveira
Diana Belbiţă, DEC
Belbita pieces anyone up standing up if they end up sitting at her range. Her posture is easily exploitable by feints and good movement. However Oliveira moves like Chuck Liddell on a 10-day coke bender and her only positive thing in this matchup is her physical strength and linear kicks. if this is going to be a boring female fight (which it probably will be) Belbita will win a decision, unless Oliveira times a good front kick.

Bro just said Imavov is going to take down Curtis lmao. Curtis has nearly perfect TDD in the UFC (If not perfect, just know it's good) and stuffed every TD from Rodolfo Viera, who's a much better grappler than Nassourdine.

Rodolfo has  26% TD accuracy

Curtis TDD is oversold if you go back and watch his PFL career, but it's still good. Some people here think he's the Jose Aldo of TDD at middleweight though because he has a 100% stat. That is not the case, but Imavov is not a grappler.

Also I could've sworn the UFC webpage told me merely hours ago that this thing was going to start an hour earlier than what is listed right now. It really is remarkable how hard it is for a multi-billion dollar company to have their webpage updates oh I don't know, 24 hours in advance? Would that be doable UFC? No?

Segador80 I don't believe in stats in MMA. Imavov is probably gonna lose the initiative and lose a decision is what I'm placing my money on. I just treat Tapology like I'm throwing **** at a wall and seeing what sticks.
