Media Common Opponent predicts Islam vs Dariush

[Ackmed]

Thiago Moises predicts Islam wins via decision, but says its a hard fight to call.

Dariush is an aggressive striker who will likely try to put foreward pressure but that can be dangerous and open him up to Islam's counter-strikes

Predicts whoever wins Islam vs Dariush will beat the winner of Gaethje vs Oliveira (I agree, this a higher level fight IMO)

Side-note: their only other common opponet (Drew Dober) also predicted Islam to win (he said his heart says Dariush because they're friends but his mind says Islam)

 

[rear naked ankle pick]

There is nothing to predict here, Islam wins this easily. Dariush is not elite

 

[PPVpoints]

Dariush and Islam have gotten an easier path to a title shot assuming the winner gets the next title shot. Didn't have to face the elite guys in the division or Conor (LOL).

Knew he picked Islam as soon as i saw Ackmed made the thread

 

[Boomersbeware]

Dariush via TKO because this is literally a Tony VS Khabib. It's a shame Khabib ducked Tony so hard.

There's only 2 common opponents and both predict Islam wins

Islam beats Gaethje but no f’n way Dariush doesn’t get ktfo’d. Islam beats Charles too but Dariush would be a toss up though I’d lean towards Charles because he’s the more dynamic striker.

nowhere close to prime tony vs khabib

And they are most likely right.

The two best LWs to be in an octagon at the same time are Khabib and Islam during sparring sessions.

I think that unless you're good friends with Daruish or just hate Islam, that average MMA fan/fighter will pick Islam over Daruish.

Heck even Dariush's friend Drew Dober pretty much picked Islam to win this.

As soon as I saw who made the thread I knew the prediction. So I didn’t bother reading the OP. And if I bet on every fight that a common opponent or pro predicted. I’d be lucky if I broke even at this point.

I’ll just do my own predictions which seem to be as good as anybody else’s a lot of the time. As long as I keep emotion out of the equation. Something the TS has absolutely no concept of.

 

[Lights Out 101]

I’m surprised Daruish has come as far as he has with how naturally unathletic he clearly is. Islam wins convincingly.

 

[Swarthy]

Daruish with a come from behind was losing till he won win.

You heard it here first.

conor avoids that type of fighter unless it is a title fight.

 

[fortheo]

So basically he says dariush has better BJJ, better striking, but Islam is smarter and has better wrestling

He must feel Islam's overall skillset is better to be favoring Islam to win

Nah, he said Islam would win because he's smarter. We don't need to guess lol

This.

Dariush is a pretender. Doesn't belong in the top 5.

What if TS is Islam?
