Can Mahashete wrestle at all? I basically look to fade Slava Claus against anyone with any wrestling ability at all at this point but I can't remember if Mahashate has that in his bag? I'll need to watch a few of his fights.

 

[Jasper_RB81]

The card is not half-bad to be honest, quite a few really good matchups and there gonna be a few violence spots... but that main event is top tier dumpster fire garbage. Yikes, it must rank in the top 10 worst of all times.

[PuertoRican]

I currently like the following fighters to win: Hill, Hernandez, Johnson, Latifi, and Silva.

 

[Shelter]

I’ll take a shot on Fiore at +100

Man went blood and guts with Rebecki on short notice, he should handle the flakey noodle-boy. Trains at a good camp in New England Cartel, been doing Jiu Jitsu since he was 13 according to his UFC bio. Let’s go

 

[Marko Atanasovik]

double: sato - hooper

 

[Wood530]

I like Fluffy but -300….. ouch

 

[guesswhoseback]

double: sato - hooper

Quick glance haven't really looked at it but I think they both lose but good luck

Hill has only two sub attacks tried on her.

2/2 both ended in submission Rose\Markos

Renzo black belt at 23 years old. Green though

Briefly. Gorimbo is converted in exchanges, while Sato is an excellent counter puncher who will use it and knock him out.
Fiore forces a ground floor, but Hooper has a better submission game and better transitions on the floor.

 

[Mcgregorian]

I think Edmen's a decent dog for this card. Hernandez was crushed by Kevin Holland of all people not too long ago. I think Edmen's older and stronger from his losses in 2020/21 and will find a way to win here....

 

[Shelter]

Didn’t know the lineage for Fiore, that helps even more.

Worth noting that Chase Hooper is finally moving up to LW so he’s likely going to be more durable than he was at FW, but I’m going to keep the bet.

Does the Jack Hermansson fight not worry you? he scored like 8 mins of control in the last two rounds.

 

[PuertoRican]

His first fight at lightweight means he won't have grown into his frame yet, so he'll likely get out-muscled by guys who are used to fighting at that weight. It has been 6 months since his last fight, which is an average training camp for him since he only fights 1-2 times per year, never more than that in the UFC.

No idea if he beats Fiore, but he'll eventually run into multiple people who will have an easy time taking him down, holding him against the cage, and hitting him with much harder punches at lightweight.

Edmen's whole career worries me in this one. He always slows down and Fluffy is a cardio machine.

If I was gonna be playing Edmen (I'm not) I'd only look at the R1 prop.

Don't know if i should play the sub for Hernandez. Edman a good enough bjj guy to survive like Allen or Fremd.

If he gasses hard enough he might just give up the neck though. But I guess there's also a chance Fluffy tries to pound him out instead.

He's gonna be tiring badly though I think. I think maybe Fluffy R3 sub could be interesting.
