I'm more amp'd up about the Tsarukyan/Oliveira fight than most of the others. Jipped, you need to watch Tsarukyan dude, he is a badass MF'r.
@jipped genes ...I added the undercards to your OP
************************
I'll go with:
Hill if he is 100% healthy. I don't really like the guy, but he has smooth standup and a good gas tank. If he doesn't get clipped by Pereira, then I can see him getting the W. If he is rusty or not back 100%, then i'll go Pereira.
Weili.
Gaethje....although I wouldn't put it out of the realm for Max to get an upset. He is coming in bigger and stronger than his prior fights...or so he says, lol. I just think Gaethje is too strong for him. Gaethje has a killer uppercut and good kicks too.
Tsarukyan. I think Oliveira has a great chance to win, you never know with him to be honest. I just think Tsarukyan is too hungry and talented coming up the ranks. I can't wait for this fight!
Nickal. This shouldn't be a main card fight. They've been talking about this since it was moved up...much better undercard fights imo. I think Bo is worthy of a main card appearance, but he needed a much better opponent....I agree with jipped, the UFC is 100% grooming him.
***************************
I guess i'll go with Jiri, but I can see either guy winning.
I'm going to go with Aljamain over Kattar until I see how Kattar performs post-surgery. This is a tough fight back for him.
Holm by boring peppering sissy punches the whole fight. This is Striker vs wrestler 101 right here. I see it similar to a Rousey matchup where if Holly keeps it standing, she wins. Kayla already had a loss to a not-so-great opponent in her other league. Also, like most other fighters who come up to the UFC they will attest to the nerves/jitters and the 'hugeness' of the event in their initial fights that take them back some. I think Kayla has a bright future, but i think this is a HUGE step for her.
Lopes over Sodiq. Lopes is an under-rated badass emo looking guy, lol. He almost submitted Evloev in their fight last year on short notice.
*******************************
I want to go with Moicano, but Jalin is tall and long which can be a major advantage. Not sure.
I'll go with Andrade.
I'll go with Jim Miller for the hell of it, lol!
I have no idea with the Fig/Cody fight, it should be hella fun. This is a badass fight for an opener.
