Ribas vs. Namajunas
Rose Namajunas, DEC
Rose has more finishing upside but I can see her gasing and Ribas going nuts for a late finish . Gimme Rose by Dec maybe even split Dec

Shahbazyan vs. Dobson
Edmen Shahbazyan, DEC
Close Dec 2-1

Youssef Zalal, DEC
Coinflip Dec , take the dog for fun

Pajuelo vs. Padilla
Fernando Padilla, TKO, R2
Can see finish or Dec . Close fight

Ogden vs. Holobaugh
Trey Ogden, DEC
Coinflip type fight almost . I’ll go with the guy that is better minute winner by a bit even tho Kurt has more finishing upside

Ramos vs. Erosa
Julian Erosa, SUB, R2
Basically a coinflip so going with the dog

Johns vs. Gibson
Cody Gibson, DEC
Coinflip so going with the dog

Trevor Wittman won't be cornering Rose. Her chances to win are decreasing.

Wittman wasn’t in the corner when she fought Manon either, I don’t think it makes that much of a difference

As long as she sticks to her gameplan in the cage I don’t think it matters all that much who she has in her corner

Picks

Predictions: 5 of 13 Winners, 1 Perfect, 290 Points   |   Tied for 3967th

Usman is the less soy HW even though hes an awful fighter i think he will use his mass to either ko or control parkin

both these flyweights look good 50 50 fight so ill take the underdog who has a more well rounded game and a less padded record

Nguyen vs Jarno is a scary fight to bet because Jarno does have a chin he just doesnt have the greatest IQ i think this will be a split decision i wouldnt bet on a fight that i think ends in SD

Miles Johns has faced very good comp and is very well rounded i see him either breaking gibson in the third or landing a takedown and winning an unanimous decision 

ramos completely quit in his last fight erosa has no chin this fight is just scary to bet on 

Holobaughs comeback tour is fun to watch ogden is a pure grappler who likely gets koed on the feet here 

Pajuello is a champion boxer with great cardio give me the umderdog padilla got schooled by nelson

billy q is always a good pick in my eyes good cardio can take a punch and is well rounded i think on the feet zalal may be better but he can be taken down as we have seen 

Talbott is going to land alot more shots then cameron in this fight Unanimous decision win

Dobson is a wrestler edmen hates wrestlers

Tafa is fighting a HW whos fast on the feet and shoots for takedowns i can see Karl getting his first submission win here

I'm not sure I was aware how much this forum dislikes Trey Ogden. I'm not saying hes a world beater but dudes more than earned my respect at this point. I figured Holobaugh would get the Tap vote being the vet but this is a really good scrap if you ask me.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 3 of 4 Winners, 0 Perfect, 165 Points   |   Tied for 4713th

Pajuelo vs. Padilla
Luis Pajuelo, TKO, R3
I'm not sure if Pajuelo has the durability to make this style work at the UFC level, we will see, but any opponent with an ounce of quit in them better put him away early because they will not make it to the final bell.

Severino vs. Lima
André Lima, SUB, R2
Lima only turned professional less than a year and a half ago yet he fights with the composure of GSP. Severino is very dynamic offensively and dangerous in every single phase of a fight but I do not see that being effective against a fighter with the composure and savvy of Lima. Severino is going to get frustrated when he cannot touch Lima and shoot his way into a guillotine or over-swing and get club and subbed; something like that. Severino will win UFC fights this is just a particularly tough matchup.

to me Ogden is an acquired taste, Not any moments in his fights that stick out in my mind as much.

Why is Nguyen a moderate favorite over Errens? He's a boxer that's beat nothing but cans (and lost to one by KO) facing a kickboxer a year younger than him with twice his professional experience that's had real UFC level competition and lost fights he should lose while taking a round in each of those fights. The odds should either be flipped or at best for Nguyen a pickem.

Perfect analysis, I see they underestimate Errens because of a guy here from Tap, but leaving the joke aside and stopping to analyze the fight, Errens has a total chance of winning this fight, pickem imo.

I tend to agree with the Errens stance, solid fighter, defensively pretty responsible, I love his counter right hand str8 down the pipe also when he leads with it to the body. Also I think he def has the advantage here in the clinch with his Judo background, nice trips and throws we've seen from him. If he can press him against the cage, make it a little dirty I think he has a good chance at winning. I also give him the submission advantage, he's capable of locking up subs off his back when he ends up there. I expect Nguyen to try to keep the distance and keep it clean getting in and out with mostly 1's and 1-2's. If Errens plays that game I think he losses.

Was looking at some footage of Andre Lima and stumbled upon a really bizarre thing: his height.

UFC and tap list him at 5'7
Sherdog lists him at 5'3
LFA listed him at 5'9 and he looked shorter than his 5'6 opponent

Really don't understand why some guys lie about their height, especially at flyweight. You're already pint sized brother, just embrace it.

It's because he is sponsored by JRey. So naturally everyone thinks he will lose
