@AyyLmaonnaise 
the research ur doing is fkn nuts. good work, it's hard not to add up everything together now. He's a skilled fighter but he has definetly did some shady stuff in the past. when he fought ferreira, first thought I had was of that weird asf record of his. now if u look closely at all of his victories (apart from ferreira) even the dudes he was fighting who had solid or atleast average records for the regional scene made their record by beating nonames with negative records (Souza, Dolotenko, Arustamyan, Contino...) So looking at those 33 victories there's actually like 3-4 legit ones and for 33 that's WILD

@jefferson yeah I had a feeling something was off when I watched him the first time but I’m definitely sus now that I’ve done a deep dive on his record. This isn’t like other central Asians where he might be fighting under a different ruleset, this is legit record padding and fight fixing. It’s clear as day in the first and second videos; I find it hilarious against the second guy how ruziboev has a chance for a guillotine, darce, triangle, and armbar but instead he waits for his opponent to isolate the arm so he can go for his signature kimura. just hilarious stuff going down in Russia or wherever he fought

Ruziboev put away Ferreira in 1 minute so that tells me he's a least somewhat decent. I dont rate him highly but I think he will get past Dumas fairly easily.

Blanchfield is going to maul Fiorit also.

Just my 2 cents ☝️

Lol at everyone saying Blanchfield is going to handle Manon

Waiting for you all to start saying how much she sucks and how she is a fraud after she gets smoked

@Rah123 
you’re very welcome I’ll come back to this. You know the funny thing is…Blenchfield was beating Jessica’s ass even on the feet, who is considered a very good striker for female UFC. Manon got outsruck by Rose, who I may say not so hot this year. You’re welcome for the under dog. Keep fading blenchfield. You’ll eventually learn. Maybe you’ll learn this week :)

oh and just a quick reminder…. In case you forgot … blenchfield went to a split against against Tracy Cortez. At a very very young age. Very impressive. Wish I can say the same thing about Manon, went to a split against Leah Court. 😂 GTFO. 💀and just to add… blenchfield would RUN through Ribas. :) Blenchfield does VERY VERY well against strikers. Not as well against girls who are very good wrestlers. You’ll find out, when your Karate Girl loses a split. Don’t forget blenchfield just beat Taila Santos who went to a split against champ.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 6 of 13 Winners, 2 Perfect, 390 Points   |   Tied for 2253rd

Blanchfield vs. Fiorot
Erin Blanchfield, SUB, R4
**** Shevchenko Grasso 3 I want the Blanchfield title reign

Luque vs. Buckley
Vicente Luque, DEC
I really hope this doesn't happen but I think Luque just wrestle****s and point fights to a decision without offering any inspiring offense.

Silva vs. Weidman
Bruno Silva, DEC
30-27

Njokuani vs. McKee
Chidi Njokuani, TKO, R1
Idek if Chidi makes weight but if he does this is a nice addition to the back end of WW, he could produce some bangers

Ruziboev vs. Dumas
Nursulton Ruziboev, TKO, R2
Make Ruziboev vs Kopylov or Aliskerov if he doesn't take a whole lot of damage. I don't think Dumas has any finishing potential and is going to be a fish out of water on the feet

Algeo vs. Nelson
Bill Algeo, DEC
I could be wrong but I see this being a sneaky banger and potential FOTN. 29-28

Jandiroba vs. Godinez
Lupita Godinez, DEC
Jandiroba almost got put away from a couple punches from Rodriguez after controlling the whole fight. Death gas incoming in round 2 and loses 2 and 3 on damage

Petroski vs. Malkoun
Jacob Malkoun, DEC
Ngl I'd be hella salty if I was Malkoun seeing Brundage on the main card of UFC 300 lmao. Petroski needed a robbery to beat GM3 and Malkoun has faced way better comp, it'll be boring af but he should get the job done

Matthews vs. Buzukja
Connor Matthews, DEC
Boring 30-27

Pacheco vs. Loughran
Caolán Loughran, DEC
Pacheco is tough but levels exist. Loughran is gonna spam takedowns and not let him up. 30-27

Arce vs. Burns
Julio Arce, TKO, R2
How tf is Burns still in the ufc

Aslan vs. Turkalj
Anton Turkalj, SUB, R2
Idc if he sucks I'm a turkalj fan. That said I think history repeats itself here

Gatto vs. Dudakova
Melissa Gatto, DEC
Lipski and Cortez are both decent losses and nasty staph lady made Frey look good which is concerning. 30-27 with one really weird 29-28 scorecard

Landwehr vs. Emmers
Nate Landwehr, DEC
Emmers is quite decent so I think all 3 rounds will be very close 30-27

@foppa420 
I remember reading earlier today your discussion about Ruziboev with Ayy, about him being a fraud or not. You mentioned about that No Contest, that was "Overturned by promoter". That interested me to see what happend in there. So, I found the fight and well it's not looking good for the Uzbek. He was rocked by a 1-0 guy (turned 4-4 later) - https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/159044-altynbek-arykbaev Premature stoppage, sure. But having 22 victories and fighting the most bottom of the barrel fighter and getting dropped by him and then top controlled is beyond terrible. This wasn't some start of his career either, this was back in 2019.

Ruzibieov gonna get caught in a fraud check. Just don’t think it’s gonna be this fight. UFC don’t like Dumas for some reason.

Because Dumas is ****, he's the most boring fighter who barely squeezes thru the most easy layups you can get. He got the absolute textbook definition of "fraudchecked" by Fremd. Dude was struggling against Azaitar who doesn't train and haven't fought in like 2 and a half years. Plus he's a terrible human being outside the cage aswell.

I’ll be honest, I bet against Dumas every single fight. “So called street fighter” dude can “ONLY” strike.

Buckley vs Luque

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 0 Perfect, 350 Points   |   Tied for 3105th

Holy ****, never thought I’d say. Buckley has one of the worst FIGHT IQ in UFC. When he rushes for a finish he ends up losing every time. However, it appears that he has made some changes . His last 2 fights his fight IQ wasn’t too bad. On Paper Luque is the actual BETTER fighter. However, give me the guy that’s more athletic and more powerful. Buckley” 
Might flip my pick based on the line movement. But, I do believe he can win this.

I hope that now, after having a fight against RDA, Luque will be more willing to strike and not just wrestle his way to a decision win. 

After his surgery it was very understandable that he would be scared about how he would react to getting hit. The way he fights Buckley will really say if we will ever see crazy striking battles from him again.
