Fun fact, I said it when the fight got announced & when Dana revealed the lineup for this card, puna vs stolzfus is opening up the main card. I really don’t know why Dana loves puna so much; he is horrible and only gets matched up against easy opponents

@CrimsonChinGuru 
explain what it is about Brundage that you like...curious to know

@AyyLmaonnaise 
I too am not sold on Reese...have him fight Pickett or Fremd to see where he's at.
And..you called it...Puna indeed

@kniferusty I’m just praying until puna gets cut. I can’t stand another puna main card fight vs a can. They could pull any one of the numerous mismatches on the prelims, move it to MC, and get the same result they would doing puna vs stolzfus

No idea what the ufc sees in puna. What baffles me is he gets more favorable treatment despite not being a notable prospect, not being a fan fav, or really doing anything special. His manager isn’t abdelaziz so it’s not like he’s begging to management about getting his main card slot. I would much rather the ufc tries to promote someone good like melk or bellato. But no let’s put the hard hitting Hawaiian who loses to anyone with a pulse. Hell even putting tates retirement fight on the main card would make more sense

Has there been any announcement about Ihor Potieria vs Rodolfo Bellato at this event?

In the video the UFC posted of Dana announcing (Tsarukyan/Dariush and Hooker/Green), that LHW matchup was on the card behind him on the wall but I haven't seen people mention it.

Amazing fights in this card. I am going with Dariush and Hooker for sure. 

I was so happy until I got to who will be opening the prelim..... and then I saw brundage.... my mood immediately soured. It was like I suddenly could smell **** and my brain went back to that moment when he quit the fight because of an elbow. 

I hope this is his last fight in the ufc.

Dariush vs. Tsarukyan
Arman Tsarukyan, DEC
I think this will be a very competitive grapple match, Benny has an edge in striking maybe first time ever but neither are good there.

Dec headkick or fake ko like ilsa

Brundage vs. Reese
Zachary Reese, TKO, R3
Bondage could win via quiting again but spaz prob catches him.

Potieria vs. Bellato
Rodolfo Bellato, TKO, R2
This will be harder than that fake prospect but not much, Ihor is kinda athletic at least.

@AyyLmaonnaise 
I think you'll have your wish soon. If he somehow loses to Stoltzfus, it's gonna be hard to make a case for staying, and if wins he'll just end up losing against the next actual prospect. He's kinda in this strange position of being 'better than most all the MW UFC cans', but is at the very bottom of 'the prospects'

I hope Ihor continues to get brutally KOed after dancing on the grave of Shogun. Let alone Bellato is just better

Dariush vs. Tsarukyan
Arman Tsarukyan, DEC
This fight will show us where Beneil stands compared to the other top lightweights can see Armen out striking daruish. That being said Dariush packs some power and armen has a suspect chin, can see Armens kicks being the difference and beneils offense grappling isn’t nearly as good as his defense so if he losing on the feet he won’t have anyway really to get it to the ground.

Hooker vs. Green
Dan Hooker, TKO, R3
The hang will mop bobby green up by obliterating greens legs and catching him on that suspect chin. Just a reminder to the people picking green, HE WAS BEING OUTSTRUCK BY GORDON BEFORE THE HEADBUTT.

Tate vs. Avila
Julia Avila, DEC
How do you even pick this

Font vs. Figueiredo
Rob Font, TKO, R2
Figueiredo’s boxing is the weakest part of his game and fonts strongest. Font has solid takedown defense ( the Sandhagen fight was a one off in terms of font being out grappled) can see font shutting down the takedowns and he will absolutely mog Figueiredo size wise. Only path to victory I see for figueiredo is a heavy grappling pace and try to grind rob font out.

Brady vs. Gastelum
Kelvin Gastelum, DEC
I can’t pick you after you were CHINNED by Belal “What’s his name” Muhummad
