So UFC 255 happened and the Prelims were more entertaining than the maincard. I had some pretty bad picks.

Here are the picks

Deiveson Figueiredo vs Alex Perez

Figgy got the job done. I just think Perez didn’t even get started, and Figgy took the neck that was presented to him. And that was that. Moreno is the next fight. I dont care if Garbrandt is available. -He may have to wait

Valentina Shevchenko vs Jennifer Maia

Valentina is very accurate, I think that is what won her this fight. She was just connecting everytime she threw, and when is shape, Maia is very good. Someone should talk to that girl and tell her to never come in fat again. Valentina wrestles very technically, and that was one of the tools that she used in this fight read more

Back at the Apex for some small-cage fighting, some pandemic fighting, some weird crowd-less fighting. I know there are people that hate the crowds and love the silent in fights, I’m not one of them – For 2 reasons: 1. Because the crowd is a character itself, sometimes when I’m watching these UFC cards, I dont know if they’re in Vegas, I dont know if they’re on Fight Island, I dont know if they’re in Florida, and it really doesn’t matter, there is no crowd, so there really isn’t anything thing to differentiate the venues. And yes, crowds boo and all that, but the crowd also cheers and gives the fighters a little motivation sometimes. I wouldn’t want to rob a hometown fighter of an audience singing his name. Reason 2. The 2nd reason is a simple one: An audience at a fight is NATURAL, If you get into a fight ANYWHERE, people are going to gather around and watch. Fighting behind closed doors is like a domestic situation😒 , and with domestic situations, there would be no rules. Fighting crowd-less is so sterile to me. I cant wait till things get back to normal. When can we at least get to 25%? 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
