UFC 263 picks

Yes. I know I’m late.

Israel Adesanya vs Marvin Vettori

I got this one very wrong. Vettori had the chin, but he didnt have the wrestling nor the Jiu Jitsu technique to get the job done. He had good moments, but his ground game wasnt good enough to capitalize on those good moments. I just thought that he’d be a little better

Brandon Moreno vs Deiveson Figueiredo

Great fight while it lasted. Moreno is good. Do you know who game Moreno some trouble? Brandon Royval – before his shoulder popped out during the fight. Maybe the Colorado man can work his way back up read more

So Dustin Poirier beat Conor McGregor by TKO in round 2 at UFC 257

These are my UFC 257 picks

Dustin Poirier vs Conor McGregor

OK, I got this wrong, a couple of things; Poirier had a good game plan, those lowkicks did the trick, and it countered McGregor’s broad stance that he uses all the time. McGregor also loves to go into a boxing stance, and that’s even worse, because then, he’s heavy on the lead leg. Anyway, he got his leg smashed, which made him immobile, and basically set up the finish. The 2nd thing is that McGregor was moving down in weight for the first time in 2 years. I personally think that McGregor dehydrated his body for this fight, and his chin was gone. So whats next? Poirier is in the mix for the title. Oh yeah…..and Khabib isnt coming back read more

Its past… And this is what happened at UFC 257

The UFC back, back in Abu Dhabi for UFC 257 McGregor vs Poirier 2. Of course Dana White is playing weird games with the 155 title. I’ve said this on twitter. – If Conor McGregor and/or Michael Chandler wins, the title is gonna be up for grabs, If both McGregor and Chandler lose, then we’re gonna have to wait for the Justin Gaethje vs Charles Oliveira fight. I guess when youre the president, you get to play these games.

Dustin PoiriervsConor McGregor

Ok, So McGregor won the first fight, but it was in 2014 and it was at 145, And I personally think that both these guys were dehydrating themselves at 145. so… I think that Poirier will be a little harder to knock out this time. McGregor is coming off that big fight where he embarrassed Cowboy Cerrone, so I know his confidence will be high. I got McGregor here by decision read more

So I didnt think that UFC 236 would be that good and I got pleasantly surprised. I made some bad calls. But its all good, some of the calls that I made were absolutely sublime.

Dustin Poirier vs. Max Holloway

I thought that Max would be big enough to handle Poirier. I thought he would actually have some power at this weight class. Turns out that it takes a little bit of time to develop that power. He also fought a very dangerous game and he ate a lot of shots in this fight. I know that he wants to stay in this weight class, so he’s stuck in a weird limbo right now. read more

What happened at UFC 236?

Max HollowayvsDustin Poirier

Holloway has the best footwork in the division. He is going to put the pressure on Poirier and get the TKO victory. I see him taking this in the championship rounds. I expect a lot of “sprawl and brawl” from Holloway

Kelvin Gastelum vs. Israel Adesanya

Stylebender should win this one. It should be a boring affair for the casuals. It will go all five rounds. Adesanya has the reach, Gastelum has the chin.

Eryk Andersvs.Khalil Rountree Jr

Anders has terrible technique, but has a hard head. I see Anders eating a lot of shots, but I don’t see him getting finished. Rountree should win this one easily read more
