You should never feel you are going to win with 100% confidence. That is delusional thinking and not reality
Also - UFC fans do NOT naturally hate Russian fighters. I don’t know where you got that from it is not true

By the famous deadly left hook
Sergei Pavlovich KO Round 2
Russian Ngannou, but in all seriousness I'm kinda skeptical about his gas tank in the later rounds. Let's see if Jon Jones will defend his belt or retire at this point just like Stipe
Mackenzie Dern SUB or a Split Dec
Low confidence on this one ngl
Diego Lopes SUB in the early rounds
Always like to put on great show, his BJJ is very good as well from his back
Benoit St-Denis KO 1st Round
Steve Erceg Winner
Nazim Sadykov Early round stoppage
Tabatha Ricci DEC

And I mean more so; Aspinall hasn't showed holes in his cardio Pavlovich has and Aspinall doesn't seem like the type of fighter to gas too crazy.
And if I remember correctly didn't Overeem shoot a takedown early Pavlovich stuffed it and then Alistar had to use a outside trip? That won't happen against Aspinall.

Tom Aspinall, SUB, R2
This is a 50/50 fight. No matter who you pick best of luck to you. Like Alex/Jiri this can go either way and will be pure violence for how short it lasts. Either Pavlovich gets the KO as Tom bounces in with his 1-2 down the pipe or marches Tom down with Hooks. Tom either clips him with the 1-2 and gets the KO with his speed, or he blasts in the double leg and finishes it on the ground. I think there is a chance for it to go round 2, but not any longer so I'm picking that more as an underdog pick since its 50/50. However, I want to end something on Aspinall, sure he has not had a training camp but he has been in the Gym. His whole HW gym has fights coming up, his two main training partners Parkin has a fight the week after and De Fries has just started preparing for his fight at the end of the year. Let alone Pavel/Houlton both having regional fights coming up. Tom has been active as a training partner and been in the gym. He even went over and trained with Verhoeven the other week. Two weeks is just enough time to get the hard rounds in to be sharp and at HW there is no need to work on conditioning as this will end within 10mins and there is no weight cut. Let alone family just went on holiday so he is home alone and can dial in only on training. I just say this not that I think it makes Aspinall win or removes the short notice concerns, just that its interesting context. This is HW MMA one punch or one takedown can change the outcome completely. These are the two best HWs at the moment and whoever wins I will be happy the HW division has a bright future. Whether its the power and violence of Pav or the Skillset and Speed of Tom

Sergei Pavlovich, TKO, R1
My god I love this fight more than the previous Heavyweight bout we had planned considering I saw Jones running right through Stipe in all honesty. Now we have one where two finishing machines & the future of the Heavyweight division go head-to-head to see who is the next king between two of my favorite Heavyweights rn. And MAN do I want Aspinall to win but tbh it's hard to see w/ the streak that Pavlovich has been on in his own regard, and tbh I wouldn't be mad if he did. His power & pressure is unrelenting and it's hard to see anyone really stopping that right now. Aspinall's best chance is by taking him down & I think he fully knows that & won't make the same mistake Blaydes did by staying on the feet with him for as long as he did. Although Aspinall is fast and can move in & out very effectively, he blitzes in & crashes into his opponent usually & leaves his chin up in the air. Pavlovich is fast as well & has the 2nd longest reach in all of UFC right now which will only make it easier to catch Aspinall coming in. No matter which way this bout goes, we're either getting a back & forth banger or a quick 1st RD finish & I can't wait for either outcome because no matter who wins or loses, both are the future of what's to come in the Heavyweight division & will likely be facing off again sometime down the road & become the best rivalry in this division since Stipe & DC back years ago & I'm allllll in for that! Can't wait to see this live @ The Garden as well :').

Alex Pereira, TKO, R3
I. Love. This. Fight. Can't get any more violent than what we have in front of us here. One thing is for certain: this likely ain't seeing the score cards in the least. Like many off the bat, my first thought is that this will be a 1st RD KO on someone's end for sure, but honestly after looking at their records & actually visualizing how the fight will play out, I see this actually going to RD 2 or 3 after a war between the two. Obviously this can end @ any point and either side can win, but you gotta side w/ Pereira's technical prowess over Jiri's manic style that usually end up getting him caught at more than one point or another in the bouts he's been in. I see a 3rd RD Flat-Line KO via Pereira Left Hook as Jiri blitzes in. CHAMA!
