Leaning Whitaker. And prolly under 4.5. Wink

Edit: And it was leaked that it's Adesanya vs Costa at UFC 253. There's a bookie that had Costa as the underdog. Def going all over that the minute it's available at FJ.

I am also leaning towards Robert Whittaker to win the fight and under 4.5 rounds is a good pick considering the losses Darren Till had were by stoppages by Tyron Woodley and Jorge Masvidal in the second round.

With Khabib pulling out of UFC 253 Adesanya and Costa will be the main event and it will be one hell of a fight and Adesanya already went through wars in his UFC career and how long his chin will last is my doubt coming into this fight as Costa hits really hard.

I got surprised when I saw that the Khabib pulls out at UFC 253. My excitement goes down immediately when I heard it from the news because Khabib father which is coach died from the covid19 but Khabib said that we will comeback whenever he is ready. If the main event will be Adesanya nd Costa, I will make a bet in Adesanya becuase he is too good in octagon and he proved it in his past battles.

My picks for the weekend's event: Whitaker at 1.87, Esparza at 2.45 and Sobotta at 2.43.

I might be picking Whitaker but when it comes to Carla Esparza i am not too confident as i noticed Marina Rodriguez when she first drew with Randa Markos and then giving a hard fight to Cynthia Calvillo and yet another draw and she is basically undefeated in her career, the only issue is she does a hard weight cut to get to the division and have to see her on the day of weigh ins but over 2.5 rounds would be fair.

@eaLiTy did you check the odds for Khamzat Chimaev, 1.08 Tongue

The only fight i do not understand in this fight card is the trilogy between Maurício Rua and Antônio Rogério Nogueira as Maurício Rua won both of their previous encounters and i cannot foresee a different result this time too. The rest of the fighters i need to see their weigh ins before making a prediction.

Anyone placing a bet look out for Khamzat Chimaev who is an upcoming talent who i think is a future champion in the Welterweight division and he fought recently on July 16 card and won by second round submission and now he is fighting again this week. The reason for my prediction is that he dominates all his opponents and he is a chain wrestler with submission skills and heavy ground and pound and hopefully he will be fast tracking his status pretty soon in the UFC.

My picks for the weekend's event: Whitaker at 1.87, Esparza at 2.45 and Sobotta at 2.43.

I also got overs and unders all over the place: Whitaker vs Till under 4.5 rounds at 1.82, Craig vs Antigulov under 1.5 rounds at 1.75, Rua vs Noguiera over 1.5 rounds at 1.80. I'm pretty sure I also got the over for Gustafsson vs Werdum at 2.05ish or something. I forgot to list it in my phone's note pad. Lol. I'll log in at FJ later.

Feel free to ask about the picks...

Ali's hate for Conor causes him to not accept that Dana's new lightweight storyboard might be Conor vs Justin Gaethje for the interim championship. If Conor wins this, Khabib or Ali cannot refuse Conor's challenge.

I speculate that Khabib will only rest this year.

What Ali Abdelaziz said was that Khabib Nurmagomedov suggested to carry on with a match up with Conor McGregor and Justin Gaethje because it will be a huge pay rise for Justin Gaethje and if he wins he will go into another big fight with Khabib and now the Russian manager of Khabib announced that he will not fight in UFC 253 but he might return by the end of this year.

Islam Makhachev is a tough opponent for McGregor as they have the same wrestling style like Khabib.

Quote from: TopTort777 on July 21, 2020, 07:10:25 AM

Did not Gustafsson retired last year? If he wins, Werdum will probably be fired from UFC as he already have 2 losses in a row. Not an easy opponent for Gustafsson for a comeback.

Alexander Gustafsson is just 33 years and he retired because it was hard for him to be back to title contention after getting so close to the title in the light heavyweight division which includes two close fights against Daniel Cormier and that too a split decision loss and then the first fight against Jon Jones and that will frustrate anyone, the situation with Werdum is that he might be a couple of fights away from retirement as he is 42 years old and at the back end of his career and a loss here will not make much sense for his career and health.

Light Heavyweight Maurício Rua vs. Antônio Rogério Nogueira

Quite unexpected to see these two in octagon. Would be great if they show peace of "Vale Tudo" from their homeland. I thought these two had already retired long time ago. And I hope they will retire soon. They have already done too much for this sport and had too many fight in career. Chances of getting injury at their age are doubled.

Rua would win via TKO.

Aside from the main event and Werdum vs Gustafsson, what interests me is that new guy from the Welterweight division ~ Khamzat Chimaev. This young man is very hungry for victory, he already got a 7 - 0 wins streak. 4 of them by knockout and 3 of them by submission, Shocked

. What a well rounded guy. I will surely look forward in his upcoming match and see if he really got the champion caliber in his blood.

I haven't watched this guy but all fights ending up with finishes sounds interesting. He'll be a title challenger soon if he keeps winning impressively. Most casual & regular fight fans loves 'exciting to watch' fighters (finishers) and Dana knows that pretty well.

Ali is just playing games and talk things that might prick Conor.

If this was done in a press conference with Conor in it, his response would probably be "who the foookt is that?".

Ali is just playing games and talk things that might prick Conor. With all respect to Makhachev, he is on different level with Conor. All he could do against Conor is wrestling. In stance Conor would outplay Makhachev. Ali could have also say that Conor should fight Zubaira Tukhugov first. Same person from Khabibs circle of friends.

Jack Hermansson was invincible by applying heel hook to Kelvin Gastelum in the first round, it is a painful defeat, there are already three to his credit in the UFC.
He wrote a tweet apologizing sorry for his defeat. Some think that he should lose weight and work harder in his training. He needs to gain a strong muscles that is achieved with a good diet and training.

I'm not exactly a fan of Whittaker but I'm interested to see how he will bounce back after losing the belt. Former champs don't usually have a good comeback fights. Darren Till is one cocky fighter but he has the skills to back it up. Coming off a win against Gastelum after back-to-back losses against Woodley and Masvidal, he must have gotten his confidence back. I bet they'll stay true to their fighting style and slug it out and this will most likely end in a KO/TKO.

I am not a big fan myself but he is a gentleman who just goes his way and does not talk trash and so is the reason he is not attracting the fans but skill wise he is a really talented fighter. I am expecting Robert Whittaker to bounce back in style and Darren Till will be under pressure to perform as this fight can determine the path to the title for both these fighters.

rip Kelvin Gastelum Sad

One more fights lost, and this time it was quick in just 78 seconds as he won with submission by heel hook submission.
I underestimated Hermansson.
Main event also finished in first round, and brazilian Deiveson Figueiredo won with rear naked choke Submission.

Jack Hermansson is really unpredictable and so does Kelvin Gastelum, i was expecting this to go the distance or Gastelum dominating him on the feet like Jared Cannonier but Jack Hermansson was able to lock in the heel hook and since it was the first round he was able to get a good grip, usually fighters does have a good warm up and sweat if you are facing submission artist to get rid of these slick submissions but Kelvin Gastelum was not able to slip out of that grip and the main event showcased the power of Deiveson Figueiredo and if he can cut the weight he could be the champion for a very long time.

My picks of the events are Arman Tsarukyan,Grant Dawson, Alexandre Pantoja, Jack Hermansson and Kelvin Gastelum over 2.5 rounds.

Wagging a combination of parlays with these picks and lets see how this will go Grin
