140 lbs for C-Rod. I guess he's been out partying with his buddies before a fight again. That Saaiman +132 bet looking better and better.

The only one that looked bad on the scale so far imo is Gutierrez. I mean Yoder looked 75 years old but that wasn't a surprise.

C-Rod actually have 2 wins out of 2 when overweight. I'm thinking of cashing out.

My thoughts on the staredowns: Saaiman looked bigger than C-Rod despite the 140 lbs debacle. Pereira ever making 170 lbs is absurd. There was a narrative in some quarters that Yanez would be a bit small compared to Martinez, didn't look that way at all. Finally Edson didn't look like he was doing too well and he's reminding me more and more of Skeletor every time I see him.

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 415 Points   |   Tied for 2381st

Rodriguez vs. Saaiman
Cameron Saaiman, DEC
Super tough to call this one. CeeRod is the smarter, more technical guy, but he’s prone to being outmuscled and outworked. Saaiman may still be a bit green, but his powerful, volume striking style seems like a strong foil to Christian’s more methodical game.

Elkins vs. Brown
Darren Elkins, DEC
Age and attrition be damned, it’s hard not to back Elkins in this fight. He’s a guy who does his best work after a bad first round, and that’s good news against a guy prone to falling apart down the stretch.

Lisboa vs. Oliveira
Tainara Lisboa, SUB, R2
Ravena is largely unproven, but has the athleticism to muscle Lisboa around. As the fight goes on, I expect Tainaira to slowly take over with her more technical striking, and either win a decision or possibly even get a late submission.

Now that I’ve thought more about it actually, is there a chance there’s an injury from C-Rod? Wasn’t an injury on his side the reason this matchup fell out the first time, or do I have that wrong? Seems like a bold choice to choose to abandon your cut when you know missing a third time likely means being forced up a weight class regardless of this fight’s outcome, makes me think he might be sick or injured or something

Four WMMA fights, a 4lb weight miss, and a medical cancellation that also would have had a weight miss. Big yikes to this card.

@baremaras 
Yoder has the grappling advantage & reach.. That is all. Emily is the better striker with solid takedown defense. This is the UFC trying to boost one fighter while potentially cutting another.

I've got Saaiman's ML and decision line, but I'm kinda hoping he KO's Rodriguez now, missing BW by 4lbs is a joke.
