Elliot, Sumudaejeri? Almost certainly. And I agree I thought he beat Tagir.
But Mokaev, Perez and Dvorak? Those are tough fights and I can't just definitively say I think Nascimento wins them. He'd have a shot though for sure.

@foppa well I said dvorak and Perez would be close. Dvorak makes every fight close because he just isn’t active; I could see nascimento beating him in a close fight. Perez is also very talented, but nascimento can match him everywhere. Ultimately perez makes too many mistakes on the ground. For mokaev, if they were to fight right now I think nascimento would beat him pretty easily. In a few years maybe not but if you put them in the cage right now he would win and likely leave very little doubt

First Topuria (who he did rock but holy **** was that a mistake and he died) and now Klein, who seems like he's permanently staying at 155 (and is most definitely not Topuria).
Kind of like him as a dog, not gonna lie.
EDIT:Make that 3; honestly forgot he fought Kyle Nelson.

Also to Mayo point, Klein is 0-2 when he made weight at featherweight, and 2-0 at lightweight, Also won another fight at a 150lb catchweight because he miss weight by 4lb at 145

Leon Edwards, DEC
I ambeing a bit biased but Leon has a solid chance here, he was losing 3-1 but he will be the most confident he has ever been, Usman on the other hand the least confident ever, Leon also won the round they was most fresh, yeah i am gonna use the elavation as an excuse i'm gonna be biased, regardless this is gonna be close imo
Gaethje vs Fiziev
Rafael Fiziev, DEC
This could go either way, Fiziev is so good but Gaethje is incredibly dangerous, this is a banger and FOTN on paper, Trevor Wittman 0-2
Nelson vs Barberena
Gunnar Nelson, SUB R2
Bam bam is good but i don't see how he wins this unless Gunnar weirdly chooses to brawl it'll be similar to the RDA fight, bam bam has no tdd or BJJ defence
Maia vs O'Neill
Casey O'Neill, DEC
She is just a lot younger, she is a bit overrated tho
Vettori vs Dolidze
Marvin Vettori, DEC
Very close fight, i think Vettori has better stand up, Dolidze has power but Vettori has a incredible chin, Vettori wins on pure volume
Shore vs Amirkhani
Jack shore, KO R3
Jack is better, i think he beats him everywhere, on the feet he will destroy Makwan, Makwan doesn't have good standup or cardio anymore, JSP destroyed him, idk why he moved up tho Ricky Simon is a beast
Duncan vs Morales
Chris Duncan, KO R1
If he don get a early ko he might lose, he doesn't have good cardio, i might change this pick
Patterson vs Ashmoz
Sam Patterson, SUB R1
Ashmoz isn't bad but he shouldn't of been signed straight to the ufc, he could of maybe been on the contender series, he is a wrestler who uses his striking to get the takedowns, his actual striking ain't good. Patterson is 6"3 at lw, he needs to learn to tuck the chin he is asking to be knocked out , Sam is very good on the mat, he has a very good guillotine, so i think he gets one as Ashmoz shoots
Mokaev vs Filho
Muhammad Mokaev, DEC
Mokaev is talented, his wrestling is amazing, Filho has power on the feet but his grappling is really good, his top control is nice with slick BJJ, he will probably be fine with lying on his back which is a worry vs a wrestler. I think Mokaev wins but the odds are insane ***
Murphy vs Santos
Lerone Murphy, KO R2
Nat wood would of beat Lerone imo. Santos is talented and only 26, his striking is very good, he attacks all areas with deadly kick, he can grapple too, he impressed me in his last fight vs Jose Delano. If he grapples he can win, Lerone has really bad TDD, on the feet i think Lerone wins and he has good power. This is a tough debut for santos
Duncan vs Todorovic
Christian Leroy Duncan, KO R1
Exited to see CLD's debut. Dusko is awful, his striking is alright but his chin is in the air and his head is massive and he doesn't move his head, he also has 12% TD accuracy in the UFC. CLD is so slick his style is like MVP's he is so good on the feet, one of the best prospects from England in a long time, he is so ******* fun too watch.
Hadley vs Gordon
Jake Hadley, KO R1
LTG Jake. His debut was awful however Nascimento gives most flyweights a ******* hard time, Hadley should keep this 1 standing his boxing is crisp and he has good forward pressure, Malcolm is sloppy on the feet with no chin, his grappling is good, his BJJ, Hadleys TDD is bad, if gordon gets it down i think Hadley will sub him from his back.
Wood vs Carolina
Joanne Wood, DEC
Jojo losses have come vs the new champ Grasso, Santos, Chookagian and Maia, robbed vs Murphy too. Jojo is a lot better than Carolina.
Klein vs Herbert
Jai Herbert, DEC
I'll back my boy Jai, it's scary because his chin is washed, this is gonna be a banger

Predictions: 10 of 15 Winners, 4 Perfect, 625 Points | Tied for 1130th
Jake Hadley, DEC
Going back and forth on this one, honestly think the line should be more like -180 Hadley +150 Gordon.
Gordon has some pretty slick Submission skills and like to go start first round hot on the feet. Think there is like a 10% chance he clips Hadley but still. If Hadley shoots on him there is looming submission threat constantly from Gordon. Line too steep for the favorite IMO
