In his last 10 fights hes won 7. in those 7 hes won 2 by decision, 3 by Ko, ,1 injury and 1 sub. So just looking at it probably KO or DEC. But in those 3 losses two are subs (Khabib and Charles) if hes gonna lose its probably gonna be on the ground but if hes gonna win its probably gonna be on the feet or may just get out pointed.

Makhachev vs. Poirier
Dustin Poirier, TKO, R2
Done doubting Dustin he probably gets laid on and groped but if Islam has the balls to stand it will be fun.

Strickland vs. Costa
Sean Strickland, DEC
Very close whoever starts and keeps initiative should win, doubt Paulo can ko Sean but that's his best path.

Maybe not on Bo vs Malkoun.  Malkoun posted on his IG that the fight was agreed to for this card but some media is saying Bo's management said they never discussed or agreed to a fight with Malkoun.  Weird situation

Solid card for sure but I feel like it's still missing one more really good main card fight. However, I might just be thinking that because 3 of the 4 main card fights, including the main and co-main, seem so lopsided.

UFC PPV are $70 to watch legally ,so I want the cards to be $70 in value, beside Strikland vs Costa , they’re not much I want to spend money to go see.  The fight still be fun, just nothing I want to spend money to watch.

Brown vs. Zaleski
Randy Brown, TKO, R1
Browns giant advantage here is that i cant see zaleski landing any head kicks clean this fight randy is too tall for that he has a very boxing heavy mvp style of darting in and out and taunting but we see a clean ko from him in his last fight and if what he said is true hes finding his stride zaleski gets chinned now that hes off the juice and goes unconscious

Price vs. Morono
Alex Morono, TKO, R2
price is done after the robbie fight ive seen what i need to see

Banger of a fight, two future top contenders. Kind of wish this fight was a bit later in their careers but I’m glad both of them have the balls to accept this fight. I think Tatsuro Taira will win this on the ground but I wouldn’t be that suprised if Van pulls it off.

The flyweight rankings aren't real. Half of them don't belong in the rankings

Critiquing the flyweight rankings

Predictions: 12 of 12 Pending   |   Tied for 1st with 1599 others

C- Pantoga- became a champ just by being a Chad and fighting hard every second of his fights. Ranking deserved.

1. Royval- SOY
2. Moreno- washed/plays with Legos 
3. Albazi- only ranked win is a robbery over kkf
4. KKF- only beats grapplers who can't strike. Also injured all the time 
5. Nicolau- soy chin/counter striker
6. Kape- fatass/unreliable/pullout merchant. Needs to get his **** together because he could be champ.
7. Mokaev- great grappler but a crotch sniffer who can't strike for **** 
8. Perez- too inactive too basic 
9. Tim elliot- old man. crazy he's in the top 10. 
10. Erceg- skilled/belongs 
11. Schnell- least durable fighters in the ufc. Should not even be sniffing the top 15.
12. Ulanbekov- SOY
13. Taira- skilled/belongs 
14. Dvorak- no talent 
15- sumudaerji- SOY
