Predictions: 9 of 15 Winners, 1 Perfect, 515 Points | Tied for 154th
Mitchell McKee, TKO, R1
The battle of Minnesota; love this fight. Mcpadden coming off of a big win. He is a grappler and a pretty good one at that. However, his standup is lacking. Mckee is one of the best wrestlers ever at UMinnesota. His wrestling has obviously looked great since going to mma. He has yet to fight anyone who can stifle it. His striking is a WIP but he makes up for it by being crazy powerful. I imagine he will let his hands go since mcpadden doesn’t have much to offer on the feet. On the mat he just has to mind his p’s and q’s and he should be fine. I wonder if mckee is vying for the ufc. If he wasn’t, I feel he would’ve already signed with Bellator
Lee vs. Clay
Lucas Clay, DEC
Clay has such a funky style. He looks so awkward in there. He’s been super inactive recently. I thought he beat McKenzie (which sucks because clay could’ve gone to tuf/dwcs after that) and only had one fight since. Maybe he gets closer to ufc with a win here. Lee is pretty terrible so should be easy
Cunningham vs. Weeks
Darian Weeks, DEC
Really happy to see darian wreks get back in the w column. He got to the ufc too early but was robbed badly in his last fight. He clearly beat yohan. Weeks problem is that he’s a nothing burger. He’s good everywhere but doesn’t really fight, he just coasts. Hopefully he can take his ufc experience and make another run. I don’t think he’s a world beater but his tenure was cut short by that trash decision. Also, at 185 he could find more success
Huckbody vs. Fallon
Collin Huckbody, DEC
I wonder if huckbody regrets not taking the ufc contract. He clearly made the right choice since he didn’t pan out to be ufc level but like he could’ve went 0-3 and at least gotten better pay on regionals as a result. His last loss is a little concerning. Since dwcs, he’s only lost to really good mw, so that loss is very very strange. Judging by how it happened I assume he death gassed and got finished. Either way, he should beat this guy
Tuan Ho vs. Latchman
An Tuan Ho, TKO, R1
Sucks nobody wants to fight ho but at the same time I’m not that surprised. This kid is a phenom. So good everywhere and carries some swag with him. I was gonna say maybe this guy could give him some issues since he’s the size of a bw but, he also lost to Luciano ramos so he’s clearly a jobber. An Ho by domination. Hope to see him in the ufc soon
Le vs. Guerriero
Quang Le, SUB, R3
Both guys have super padded records. Gonna go with Le cuz I’ve been watching him since he turned pro. Sal trains at a great gym but has lost to anyone he’s faced with a pulse
Trembley vs. Parriott
Griffin Parriott, SUB, R1
Parriott has looked good since making the transition to mma. I would like to see him m tested soon but this is fine for now
Milhausen vs. Turner
Christian Turner, DEC
Turner has had a tough strength of schedule so far. I think he can get the w here
Hays vs. Bye
C.J. Hays, TKO, R2
Bye is an easy fade. His amateur “fight” in bellator was so painfully bad. Genuinely so bad I think I could beat Brett bye. He is among the worst fighters I’ve seen
Lesko vs. Becker
Stephen Lesko, TKO, R1
How bad at jitz do u have to be to get tarikoplata’d

Cheyanne Bowers, SUB, R2
Really wish the ufc would abandon the aline pereira experiment. Sure it’s cool to see poatans sister but she is not very good at all. She has a lot of good physical qualities but not the skills to put them together
Parriott vs. Mathison
Griffin Parriott, SUB, R1
Nice a real opponent for Parriott

Aline
she fought an experienced vet to a 29-28 decision in her debut -- and won her second fight easily.
Alex got submitted in his debut... and then became a UFC champ.
casual fans: be a world beater in your first fight -- or never fight again.

When I see a fighter who has early losses but dominates later in their career (against tougher opposition), it tells me they are massively improved from their early days - having a real contender mindset to get better with every loss.
When I see someone who is finishing cans one after another, but gets to a 'real' organization or higher tier, only to unequivocally get pwned again and again- that's who should be reconsidering their fight career.
One of many examples - Jack Della Maddalena. Finished twice back to back when he turned pro. Now look at him

Lol I got no striking
Before you say someone has no hands might want to do some research on my fight vs Chris Dunn, as well as, watch LFA 142 where I cooked Cyr on the feet until he got desperate. Make sure to bet McKee +odds always pay better for my friends and I
