Trying to get turnover at the top of the division to create new contenders

As they always say, if he can stuff the takedowns he will win

That's closer to a coinflip then 'favorite' odds wise. Personally I think burns takes it, experience and more tools, JDM lost his last fight without the judging IMO.

Why would you assume he learned from those mistakes?

Think he's talked about it in interviews etc. Still think everyone is overreacting to that fight etc. The multiple weight cuts, opponent changes, and fighting an opponent who was probably juiced up lol. He's leveling up in each fight and I doubt he makes foolish decisions like he did in that fight again, especially with a guy like Burns.

giblert with that look in his eyes joe

 

[FrappeDuRocma]

The guy had a hard time against a no name in Hafez, called at last minute and then barely won against Holland, the hype is dead... If Burns he not done, he will easily win that fight.

Huge if true!!


Massive step up for Jack. Can our boy get it done?

 

[The Legendary Scarface]

This card is fucking insane. Did Dana mix up 299 and 300?

 

[Oz.Pride]

I feel like Jack's on the same path that Rob took to the belt. This is his Jacare fight. Jack KO should have some serious value and will be worth a little sprinkle

 

[Lights Out 101]

I think Giacomo finds the shot and puts Gil away. I just hope he's been working on his TDD.

This will be the fight where we see what JDM is really made of imo.

Called it
