I predict teez tingz! Candid takes on everything MMA including fight predictions, recps/breakdowns, and current events in the Mixed Martial Arts community.
I went 10-3 on the card with some savvy dog picks in Abus Magomedov and Tahir Abdullayev, as well as the even odds main event pick Rafael Fiziev
Javier Reyes just may not be that guy. Keeps his hands low and chin in the air and just lacks the offense. Gets clubbed and subbed by Ofli in round 1
Hasanov was able to out grapple the visibly smaller guy in Nolan. Feel like Nolan could've had success on the feet as Hasanov gassed but couldn’t get it done. Nolan also might be undersized for 170 LBs
Sadykhov gets cracked and TKOed early by Camilo, which just isn't a good look imo. Could have given him more of a chance to recover, but we got the early stoppage going our way with the Abdullayev pick, although he was more than likely going to win that fight anyway

✔️ Yakhyaev ML -600 ✔️ Yakhyaev KO or submission -275 ✔️ Yakhyaev KO +175
✖️ Nolan ML +142
✔️ Magomedov ML +100 ✔️ Magomedov submission +225
✔️ Aliskerov ML -310 ✖️ Aliskerov KO or submission -150 ✖️ Aliskerov KO +110
I went 8-4 on the night. Herb Dean with back to back weeks of watching back of the head shots during finishing sequences (Alex Pereira and now Andre Fili) and refuses to stop the action. Pereira had knots on the back of his head and Fili had a gash on the back of his
Laid down 10 units this card to return 34. Was evens after the Oliveira/Fili fight but had a ML parlay the last 4 fights that hit, and won big on a Kape KO at +200
Luana Santos gets it done with another lay and pray boring decision. She has solid grappling and control but wish she had more finishing potential
Michael "Pillow Hands" Aswell with the underwhelming performance to lose to Bolanos
Borjas with a top tier largest underdog of the card performance to fraud check Lima, who is technical and has the pressure, but just not pulling the trigger. Borjas with a masterclass performance on the backfoot and hurt Lima the end of R1
And Fili came out with a solid round 1 but just fizzled and gave up imo. Wish he wouldn't have taken the back of the head shots and was given the chance to come out round 3 but maybe I'm just coping
I went 5-2 tonight. Gane is a cheating, POS with at least 10 back of the head shots. Gaethje puts on one of the grittiest underdog performances I've seen in a long time. Very fun card all around but Gane should give Pereira an immediate rematch, and the spineless commentary team says nothing about the obvious illegal blows.
No stream this week due to some technical difficulties but I went 8-4 on the night, pretty solid week of picks as well as method of victory picks:
Souza moneyline -310
Chaves moneyline -298 or decision +140
Chairez moneyline -102 or KO +425
McGhee moneyline -440 or KO +135
Costa moneyline -470 or KO -225 or 1st round KO
Baraniewski KO -150 or moneyline -410 or finish -350
Mitchell moneyline -125 or submission +380
Allen moneyline -180 or submission +220
Misses: Muhammad moneyline -110 or decision +150
Ziam moneyline -298 or finish +110
Leavitt moneyline +150
Cachoeira moneyline +105 or KO +210
Cachoeira gets dropped and subbed. Knew her wrestling and submission defense were very suspect but thought she could find Chandler’s chin
Leavitt saw success with the wrestling, but a panic takedown got him caught by the BJJ black belt
Ziam with the most low IQ moves and falling onto the mat to lose position and rounds
Belal got out struck over 5 rounds. Tried a few takedowns but another frustrating 3rd performance in a row of not committing to the grappling early and often

Went 7-5-1 this card. Not the best work but was an entertaining card nonetheless
Looking forward to next week’s card
Amorim comes out with the quick takedown and kimura to armbar finish
Looked like she hurt Loma’s arm but great win from Amorim
Vera comes out and gets the first round KO, on short notice, across the world
Hell of a debut for him
Angela Hill puts on one of her best performances
Xiong doing nothing but waving her forward and eating shots for 3 rounds
Gurule doesn’t even attempt to fight the hands and gets RNCed
Haddon with a very impressive performance to get the TKO
Ding found the pathway to win with the leg kicks and pressure and should’ve been capitalizing pressing Souza back
Cut both these guys
Dias with the KO just putting it on Lee
Perez getting outmatched on the feet, dropped round 2, and lucky to get out of there with the low blow no contest
Jake Matthews just dominates Harris everywhere but should’ve finished the fight
Kai Asakura makes quick work of Smotherman
Sergei blasts Tallison in round 1 and proves Tallison is not top 15
Zhang has zero grit – if he can’t get you out of there quickly and easily, he wilts a
Close fight but then Song gets the arm in guillotine finish – did not see him winning by sub
