If I knew Walker would go in with his old brawling style I'd bet him at +450. But I don't think he will, SBG is trying to turn him into a technical striker. The worst thing he could do is trying to have a technical fight with Ankalaev and I think that's exactly what he'll do.

Only a hour and a bit before the fight starts. Really hype after no fights for a month. Should be a fun one even without Kape on it

Really wish daylight saving was still going In America then the card would already be starting. nothing better then Sport starting a hour earlier

Zany New Predictions

Predictions: 8 of 10 Winners, 2 Perfect, 450 Points   |   Tied for 3340th

Arlovski vs. Cortes-Acosta
I am all about Waldo Cortes-Acosta at -750. He has a woebegone hiza guruma. Cortes-Acosta shall avert the cycle.

Nolan vs. Motta
I am with Tom Nolan at -350. He has a noble double leg flapjack. Nolan can warp the adversary.

Wilson vs. Silva
I like Jean Silva at -950. He has a judicious hammerfist. Silva is about to attempt the ring announcer.

Bunes vs. Van
I am loyal to Joshua Van at -265. He has a perfect kouchi gari and an accurate mountain bomb. Van ought to rattle the corner man.

Simón vs. Bautista
I tap Ricky Simón at -190. He has a hedonistic gas tank and a twisted tsuri-dashi and also a ultimate mounted elbow drop. Simón will likely bother the previous pitfalls.

Ankalaev vs. Walker II
I choose Magomed Ankalaev at -550. He has a proficient overhead chop. Ankalaev should feign the bandit. So say we all!

Basharat vs. Lapilus
I select Farid Basharat at -280. He has a zesty piledriver. Basharat shall vandalize the canvas.

McGhee vs. Bolaños
I adopt Marcus McGhee at -230. He has a underrated right hand. McGhee won't quarantine the corner man.

Hawes vs. Ferreira
I love Brunno Ferreira at -130. He has a kempt bolo punch. Ferreira can shatter the enemy.

Miller vs. Benítez
I feel disposed to Jim Miller at -155. He has a nasty inverted atomic drop and a creative sprawl. Miller can quash the underdog.

Tempted to take Benitez, he’s dangerous early but I’m gonna go with Miller to mix in his grappling and grind out a decision.

I think the most difficult fight for any fighter coming out of DWCS is the debut, even several with good or decent records in the UFC have come up short or flat out looked bad in their debuts. Nolan impressed me in his fight at DWCS and in my opinion Grad is a much better fighter than Motta (even though Nikolas is in the UFC and Bodgan is fighting in Europe Circuit). Nolan has a good frame for the division and it shouldn't take long to find Motta's chin and put him out. 

It's funny to hear Motta call Odgen a boring fighter (even though it may be true) and that he doesn't want to fight him again when literally if Beltran hadn't been a little hasty in stopping the fight Odgen would have submitted him or won by decision. Listening to a Striker with weak chin and zero grappling game complain about being outgrappled is really surreal hahahaha

Vou de russo, por ser mais completo. Mas não ficaria surpreso com uma vitória do brasileiro, que está muito confiante.

@amett just shows how immature and bad motta is. He got his ass kicked in that fight & is lucky to even be getting another fight, yet all he can come up with is that Ogden is a “boring” fighter

It also wasn’t like Trey Ogden was lay and preying on Motta either. They were standing for a large portion of the fight, and Motta couldn’t do **** to Ogden, he only landed 14 significant stikes. Just premium salt and he got schooled on the feet
