Jailton Beats Curtis Harder Than My Dad Beat Me When I Was Twelve

Predictions: 6 of 9 Winners, 2 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 2906th

Not gonna make my official picks yet until we're closer to the day of these fights, but I will say that I'm likely going to pick Almeida to win. Jailton is just so goddamn relentless with his takedowns and ground and pound, and I don't think Blaydes is ready to get beaten at what he's supposedly good at. If he's this awesome wrestler, then I'm not very sure how he got KO'd by Derrick and Pavlovich on the feet. Couldn't he have just taken them down? Known power strikers that have faced trouble when met with elite grappling? Of course I obviously could be wrong but damn will I NOT be surprised when/if Curtis gets assbeaten

Pichel

Predictions: 3 of 5 Winners, 0 Perfect, 165 Points   |   Tied for 4431st

Am I biased because I've always liked Pichel? Bonfim should win but I feel he'll have difficulty getting a finish

Although older, Pichel never looked washed & always comes in great physical shape with stellar cardio. His footwork is constant (hard to hit clean) & confusing with switch stances mid combo + he has decent wrestling. It's no coincidence he's always been hard to put away.

 If anyone can, please convince me that I'm wrong.
Thanks

Bonfim has never really been a finisher. I think he is just gonna put the hurt on pichel but not finish him. Besides that vrutal finish of mcChinny (who hasn’t ko’ed him) bonfim hasn’t finished a ton of fights. He always throws with bad intentions but is more of a decision guy

@AyyLmaonnaise 
yeah you’re right. Thanks Ayy.

BTW in your opinion do you think Pichel has a path to victory here? Do you think his stick and move has a chance with a few TDAs thrown in there?

Nah I think he’s screwed. Bonfim better everywhere. I still rate him the same after that bsd fight too. At first I thought that was a **** performance but it turns out BSD is just the terminator. Also bonfim was super undersized

Pichel is still pretty decent but he’s a lot slower and older now. I think bonfim has him covered everywhere. Also, he’s been injury prone his whole life, at some point those injuries are gonna take a toll on his body. He’s like 41 now so I don’t expect him to win this

Actually - Ismael may be even MORE aggressive here than he already usually is as he may not feel any danger coming back his way from Pichel.
I’m thinkin how McKinney fought Breeden recently. Could happen

Gabriel Bonfim

Does anyone else out there think his strike defense is sus? I know he's out there trying to take a head off but at the disregard of better defense it seems

Alexander vs. Onama
David Onama, TKO, R2
Onama's a beast. Between his war with Nate the Train and glorious comeback with a KO over Santos, he's gained a fan in me. Anything can happen but I am extremely confident in picking David to take this dude's ******* head off.

Yeah, his striking defense is sus, but I think it's not gonna get checked against Dalby.

When he levels up in the rankings, then I'd say he's gonna have a lot of problems with his wildness in the octagon.

 I agree. Hopefully he tightens that defense up before he climbs higher in the rankings

I shall pray to the MMA Gods. Please let there be no BS weight issues or injuried fighters pulling out of the card. 
Also let my fellow countryman suck less as an audience for these amazing fights so that i am not embarrassed to be of the same nationality as these so called mma fans.

Nascimento vs. Mayes
Rodrigo Nascimento, DEC
That may be unwatchable.

Bonfim vs. Pichel
Ismael Bonfim, TKO, R3
Bonfim's last loss has more to do with Benoît Saint Denis being a monster than him being bad. He should still win against most unranked competition, and even reach the rankings himself at some point.
