I was fully convinced that this card would happen tomorrow only to be sad when I saw it's gonna happen April 27.

That was enough for me to lean Gabe 60/40.

Prediction Comments
Predictions: 6 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 350 Points | Tied for 4035th
Matheus Nicolau, DEC
Nicolau is great. Really mad this wasn't a rematch vs Kape, because Kape was robbed badly in the first fight and Nicolau had a chance to prove it wasn't a fluke. He gets an easy fight vs Perez, as long as he wrestles and doesn't leave himself open he should have this.
Spann vs. Guskov
Ryan Spann, SUB, R1
First of all, mistake by whoever makes these fights, because it says Lightweight not Light Heavyweight. Don't want to be that guy but someone has to. Anyway Spann is one of my favorite fighters in this division. He isn't amazing anywhere, and can still be outclassed by anyone who is better than him in either area, but he is pretty both on the feet and on the mat. Losing to Volkan by sub is kind of crazy and his standup defense isn't good. Hopefully Spann can pick it up and make it back into the title picture.
Silva vs. Lipski
Karine Silva, TKO, R1
I can tell by the pick% how many of these users don't really pay attention to the fights (no offense, I used to be like that). Silva has power. Her submission skills are amazing but early in her career she was getting KOs, and the power is still there if you watch the Botelho and Moroz fights. She could definetly submit Lipski but Lipski being a fellow grappler and being KOd by Cachoeira of all people makes me pick the KO.
Diniz vs. Lane
Austen Lane, TKO, R1
Average 30 second Austen Lane fight. He either gets a nice KO or gets KOd badly.
Pearce vs. Onama
Jonathan Pearce, DEC
I love Onama, his striking and power is so good but his cardio always screws him against wrestlers like Pearce.
Yahya vs. Henry
Victor Henry, DEC
This fight is simple really. Yahya is a guy who if he can get it to the ground, will win, and if he stays standing, he probably won't. And Henry has great standup and his TDD is elite for this division. I could see Rani get a lucky takedown and submitting him but Henry will probably win.
Hubbard vs. Figlak
Austin Hubbard, DEC
I think Hubbard can wrestle his way to a win here, but Figlak can hunt submissions as we saw at times in the Ziam fight.
Mayes vs. Machado
Don'Tale Mayes, TKO, R2
I liked Machado before his DWCS fight, but since then he's just been unimpressive. His standup was OK in both the DWCS and Parkin fights, but I didn't see his ground game, and that's where Mayes flourishes. His GNP is great, and while he's not amazing standing, he's fine there. I think he can get it done.
Souza vs. Mann
Ketlen Souza, DEC
I haven't seen much from Souza, but from what it looks like she's a good regional fighter. Mann is ok, she does look like a good wrestler, but she is pretty much the lowest of the low standing. Souza hasn't looked like much of a finisher lately so I'll take the UD.
Llontop vs. Green
Gabe Green, SUB, R1
I like both these guys, they're both good standing but can also wrestle. I like Gabe Green way more on the ground though, he has a good RNC.
Petrović vs. Liang
Ivana Petrović, TKO, R1
Petrovic isn't great but Liang is horrible. Outside of the Carnelossi fight she hasn't done anything but get destroyed.
Hayisaer vs. Benítez
Gabriel Benítez, TKO, R1
Maheshate is honestly a great find from the UFC here. He's only 22 but his standup looks really promising, and he's huge for Lightweight. Moggly's a killer though, and I'm interested in seeing him in this division. He always had good power and people seem to forget he can wrestle too. Give me Benitez in the first.

Anyway now I am super motivated to ruin this card. It's hard to get motivated and watch tape when you have won as much money as I have. But now I am. Very. Motivated. All because of ANOTHER Cage Warriors fraud. The most fraudulent promotion in the world.
And as luck would have it there are some Cage Warriors fighters on this card too LOL. Let's see what they got.
I will be taping fights and dropping picks very soon. It's your lucky day guys. You will be able to move out of your mums place and afford your own wifi.
Don't say I never did anything for you.
