I've got Fili by TKO.

Weird that they make Fili fight so many fellow prospects.

 

[BlueMerle]

Yair via complete decimation.

 

[Dart Feld]

It should be a wild fight. I'll be rooting for Fili.

 

[beephin]

Fireworks for sure

 

[VinceArch]

I hope Yair takes it.

 

[DarkfireBoy]

I don't buy the hype. He throws cool looking kicks but otherwise I don't think he's that special. Hopefully I'm proved wrong but I think fili beats him.

 

[Kryptt]

This should be a good scrap - Yair is my initial bet though.

 

[LEXTHEANARKIST]

Ah man sucks they gotta fight each other so early in their careers. I got Fili by submission in the 2nd or 3rd.

 

[Rational Poster]

I think Fili is better.

 

[iloveufc123]

I got Fili by hard fought decision

I love it. Win or lose UFC needs to match up young prospects more often. Fili should handle Yair with ease imo another Rogan hype job.

Prospects?

Fili has had 5 fights in the UFC. Three of those have been TUF'ers. Yair is his 4th TUFer in 6 fights.

 

[Drake]

Interesting. Another Alpha Fale takes one for the team!

 

[Guile]

Fili by decision

I still remember Fili and Holloway, that was a great fight. One of Max's harder fights, IMO. Andre has had some rough luck since then. He's had half as many fights as Max, and I still think the Pepey choke was pretty flukish.

Ricco Rodriguez climbs into the cage and eats them both, therefore, Rodriguez wins.

Yair via complete decimation.

YES! Fili makes me think of a wet sewer rat every time I see him .. not fighter bashing.

Well, since I am female perhaps you should send his sister for me instead. And I hope she can fight, because I sure as hell can.
