I’m not excited. Is the casual fan excited? I dont know, who really cares. Its more MMA. I think its safe to say that we’re coming out of the Pandemic now, most people are back to work, things are weird, and people are back to watching live fights.
| Dustin Poirier | vs | Conor McGregor |
OK. Do we need this? ehh… whatever, its a fight… I’m not excited, but you know what…maybe if you never ever watch MMA, maybe this will excite you. Anyway, I think McGregor is the more technical striker, and I’m not very high on Poirier, but, I must admit, Poirier has a very good record, and one thing…one thing about The diamond. He is an absolute DOG. His skills are lackluster, a lot of guys will out technique him, but he has heart for days. Thats been the talking point leading up to this fight, and… its the truth. I see McGregor playing it safe and technical and getting the win here
| Gilbert Burns | vs | Stephen Thompson |
Stephen Thompson is the biggest puzzle in the UFC. I just hope his body doesnt break down before he gets another title shot, because I think he deserves one. I just see Thompson playing his game and racking up points and getting the win, And…shhh…but Thompson has a really good chin and good takedown defense
| Tai Tuivasa | vs | Greg Hardy |
At one time I thought Greg Hardy was going down the path of a Martial Artist. Naa… I was wrong. Hardy is stagnant and one dimensional and I expect him to be gassed by the second round. I do expect him to make the second round though
| Irene Aldana | vs | Yana Kunitskaya |
Aldana doesnt have good footwork, and Kunitskaya has good footwork. Also I think Yana has the advantage on the ground
| Sean O’Malley | vs | Kris Moutinho |
O’Malley by 1st round KO
| Max Griffin | vs | Carlos Condit |
Griffin is in a purple patch right now, but I think Condit has enough juice in the tank to get it done
| Niko Price | vs | Michel Pereira |
I got Pereira. Wild fight though
| Dricus Du Plessis | vs | Trevin Giles |
I’m not fond of Du Plessis. I’ll begrudging pick Giles
| Ryan Hall | vs | Ilia Topuria |
Topuria has good hands, and very strong wrestling. I got Topuria
| Jennifer Maia | vs | Jessica Eye |
Maia could come in fat, or she come come in, in shape and ready to fight. I’m hoping she’ll be in shape…heck, even if she came if fat, she might be able to beat Eye
| Omari Akhmedov | vs | Brad Tavares |
I got Akhmedov
| Zhalgas Zhumagulov | vs | Jerome Rivera |
I got Zhumagulov
| Alen Amedovski | vs | Yaozong Hu |
I got Amedovski
Sean O’Malley pick will be unbroken
