I remember that knee injury which ruined that event well for me anyways and also McCann getting just dominated by Erin Blanchfield which wasn't really surprising.
But this one should be alot better in London which will be an early start for the ones from the states.

The weigh-ins have already happened and the face-offs are going on right now as shown below:

Similar to you, there are also some people in the other UFC thread who predict that Tom Aspinall's knee injury and long rest from the octagon might make him perform below his real capabilities. It is a reasonable argument, however, I disagree. The UFC chose Marcin Tybura because they know that there is a more than bigger chance that the Englishman will finish this fight within 2 rounds if Tybura is the opponent.

Also, this event is in London. Uncle Dana has given the Englishman an opportunity to look very good in front of his countrymen hehehe.

Know this is off the radar with the next event then what everybody is waiting for with UFC 291 before the end of the month, but this was put up by everybody with a MMA youtube channel about the Israel upcoming fight that was hotly debated from the very start:
Sean Strickland Responds To Israel Adesanya Title Shot, Dricus Du Plessis, Khamzat vs Paulo Costa with Helen Yee Sports
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQtkhoAuL7w

The guy is not pleasant to talk to but Helen Yee takes it all in stride so big ups for keeping her composure with this loud mouth fighter.

He could win this fight. Not really a mismatch after all Tybura has more fighting experience.
He doesn't sound unread in his interview. Tom already has lots of plans if he wins but it's too much to ask Jones in London. He said it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pw9b1_TcDY

So many tough fighters to defeat before he could go up. He will possibly fight Curtis again who is way more skillful than Tom.  Choosing to fight Gane might just be favorable for him.

^ UFC 291 is where I think the fun will be. 
Anyway, that's still 10 days away so let's focus on the fight in London.

Two heavyweights clashing as the headliner Tom Aspinall and Marcin Tybura.
Here are the stats of the two fighters.

https://www.espn.com/mma/fightcenter/_/id/600033408/league/ufc

Aspinall is the striker type but he has submission finishes so Tybura should keep an eye on that. Tybura as a mixed martial artist but most of his wins came from a decision from his last two fights.
I think what we want to see here is if Aspinall could knock him out by taking advantage of his good footwork or end it with a submission. I prefer his knock-out finish and if turns out to be a decision he might still win it.
Although I read some analysts say that it's a mismatch, Aspinall is too good against Tybura.

The odds tell the same.
Aspinall @1.21 and Tybura @4.30. I think we all know where we are betting at.

This UFC event in London is one many are looking forward to especially the fans of the main event contender Aspinall.
Meatball Molly is the co-main event so it should be a nice one-two with two British fighters I am looking forward seeing.
Paul Craig vs. Andre Muniz looks to be another notable fight to put on your parlays.
Paddy Pimblett would of been a bonus to see on this card but the baddy sustained an ankle injury in his last fight back in December and said he probably wouldn't fight for the remainder of the year, but you never know.
He was scheduled to have surgery back in March but no update on his fighting status yet.

This UFC Fight Night 224 promises to be a good one while many didn't quite enjoy the Holm vs Bueno Silva.

Now moving on to the upcoming event this week 07/22/2023

Result for my pick and predictions for the UFC Fight Night: Holm vs. Bueno Silva

Holly Holm (1.56) VS Mayra Bueno Silva (2.44) - LOST

For sure Mayra Bueno Silva is having a hardtime with Holly Holm when it comes to striking surely Holm is a master-class striker and if this fight goes the distance Holm can win this fight but yeah Mayra Bueno Silva pulls out a Standing Ninja Choke that lets Holly Holm tap to submission, for me Holly Holm was winning but because of Bueno Silva's quick thinking in reversing the situation with her knowledge with her submission this surely will happen,  



Jack Della Maddalena (1.16) VS Bassil Hafez (5.40) - WIN

Many fans are joined by what the commentator was saying about the fight they all think that Bassil Hafez was winning the fight the 2nd round become controversial, but after watching the fight and the 2nd round it was really clear Bassil Hafez won the 1st round while Jack Della Maddalena won the 3rd round, while the 2nd round was the one that the fans are saying that Bassil Hafez won because of his takedown controls on Della Maddalena and the influence of the commentators but for me, Jack Della Maddalena won this fight but it was not a good performance for Maddalena because it was a close match for a short notice fight so for sure Jack Della Maddalena isn't really for those top fights for sure,

Here is the result of my prediction and bet for the event today

Holly Holm vs Mayra Bueno Silva - LOST

I really thought that Holly Holm will win this fight olm was really accurate with her strikes but because it wasn't that strong enough there is no way she could knock out Mayra Bueno Silva but because it was not that strong enough Mayra Bueno Silva surely surprise Holly Holm by that standing ninja choke it was a total lost I really thought that Holm is winning the fight but Bueno Silva is one monster getting that difficult Submission position surely she got a strong grip on Holm to do such thing, and surely that is something complicated to do but Mayra Bueno Silva have properly executed it,

Jack Della Maddalena vs Bassil Hafez - WIN

It was a close game that ended in a split decision, for the fight to be at a controversial judge decision in giving Della Maddalena the 2nd round, but moving forward I think that Jack Della Maddalena got the win in this one, the only thing that I am surprised was Jack Della Maddalena might have a hard time with the ranked fighters for sure he was really a disadvantage with the wrestling game and needs to properly train in those aspects because Bassil Hafez is really good at those that even the Commentator though that Hafez win the fight,

WOW! Talk about a great event and I think this is it, there is a controversial fight but we got a few great finishes, and there are running aswell inside the Octagon, and all of my fighting kitties made their win, so I am surely happy about it,

Nice Picks guys keep on winning, now here are mine for the UFC event now

Holly Holm (1.56) VS Mayra Bueno Silva (2.44)

1st Mayra Bueno Silva really is good at the ground game and her Submission is pretty much intricate with her moves and what to choose for her submission game, pretty much this is a very difficult fight for Holly Holm that is pretty much well versed in the stand-up game, while Holly Holm is more technical on her striking she can have that volume pump up when needed and against Yana Santos, she has a decent takedown for sure but for me, Holly Holm's style can surely up her game and is now an adjusting fighter on whoever her opponent is for me Holly Holm is more well-rounded when it comes to Striking and now Wrestling, even though she is only starting with her Wrestling while Silva is just average when it comes to striking so for me I will go with Holly Holm,



Jack Della Maddalena (1.16) VS Bassil Hafez (5.40)

When it comes to the wrestling game Bassil Hafez got his game right into submission, he is a short notice to Jack Della Maddalena that pretty much should have a fight last week, but because of fight cancelation he is now fighting Bassil Hafez for me Jack Della Maddalena has a great boxing game and that power from his strikes can end the fight fast enough surely Hafez should take the fight on the ground fast because when Maddalena could catch him with a single punch this could be over, so I will go with Jack Della Maddalena,

Now here are my Picks for the upcoming fights for the UFC Fight Night: Holm vs. Bueno Silva

Holly Holm vs Mayra Bueno Silva

This fight will surely set the return of Holly Holm in my opinion because her opponent now is a wrestler and a submission expert, so she will surely need to adjust at the level of Silva's wrestling, and because her opponent is a pure submission artist for sure she will be needing it for me Holly Holm is a great striker she is so technical with her strikes that she is accurate with those to land on whatever part she wants, now her opponent is so much average in striking that Mayra Bueno Silva will need to get close to Holm to get a takedown, well for me Holly Holm will be on the distance and will surely find an opening for that shot, and will surely have a great takedown defense so she needs to let the find stay on the stand-up, for me my pick is Holly holm,

Jack Della Maddalena vs Bassil Hafez

Another wrestler and striker fight, in this fight Bassil Hafez has the ground game aswell and he could win this if he gets his opponent into the ground, but for sure Jack Della Maddalena still has some ground game aswell but his strike is more devastating than Bassil Hafez and for sure knowing Jack Della Maddalena he has experience in guys that are well versed in the ground because he has it aswell, for this fight the boxing will be his main advantage towards the fight in my opinion if that strike could get Hafez then this is all over, so my pick is Jack Della Maddalena,

Well, here are my bets and predictions for the upcoming fight for UFC Fight Night: Holm vs. Bueno Silva

Holly Holm VS Mayra Bueno Silva

The odds for this fight are 1.56 for Holm and 2.44 for Bueno Silva, for this fight, Mayra Bueno Silva is coming from her 3 wins and has a nasty submission for sure the only loss she got was through the decision but she is always executing great takedowns and submission that she got a huge percentage on the Submission wins, while Holly Holm got an A+ on her striking and for sure she will use that accuracy of her to knockdown Bueno Silva for sure and in her recent fight with Yana Santos she got those wrestling but is not really that perfect but she is surely learning it but for this fight, because he is surely new to that wrestling game I will surely make a risk gamble in this one and will be going with the underdog Mayra Bueno Silva,

Jack Della Maddalena VS Bassil Hafez

The odds for this fight are 1.16 for Della Maddalena and 5.40 for Hafez, well Bassil Hafez comes from short notice and Jack Della Maddalena should be fighting last week against Sean Brady but eventually canceled due to Sean Brady's infection then a short notice Josiah Harrell should fight Della Maddalena but eventually canceled again because of Harrell's medical issue, and for this fight, Bassil Hafez has great wrestling wins he got great jiu-jitsu but Jack Della Maddalena has good boxing for sure he is very technical in that department and could surely knockout Bassill Hafez with his power strikes, so for this fight I really thick Jack will be very careful with this fight he will surely use takedown defense for sure, and try to be cautious on those takedowns so for me I will go with Jack Della Maddalena,

I've heard of this GIMIK promotion after inception somewhere in someone's vlog on Youtube or maybe Facebook. Also, it is being humiliated by that man, I forgot why but I think that's the reason behind it, it's a gimmick, or it is the bad naming of a company.  Something like that.
Anyway, Ngannou was successful at getting the attention of many people thanks to that name. Kind of clever actually.

Adesanya's fight is still far so let's go to the next in line first which is Holly Holm versus Mayra Bueno Silva, and then, there is Alex Pereira versus Jan Blachowicz at UFC 291. That sounds entertaining. After I saw how good Alex is I might bet for him, I do think this is the weight class that is perfect for him with his bulky body.

So what's our pick for the next fight?
Holm or Bueno Silva?
Here are the odds for that fight.
Holm @1.56
Bueno Silva @2.44
Judging from records Bueno Silva has a good one too and she is on a good 3-win streak which is phenomenal. But if this becomes another retirement fight then we may not like it, the over-respect for the other fighter being a veteran just like what Aldana did against Nunes.

UFC Fight Night: Holm vs. Silva at sportsbet.io

It has come to this point hasn't it?
Now look at what Israel had said in the past which he has apparently forgot what he had said before:

He even has held up two other different country flags so it seems that he prefers to choose which country he represents when it absolutely suits the situation.


As he had said before, he doesn't give a s**t what people have to say and will let his fists do the talking.
So we will just have to wait and see I think at this point.

As your point with Ngannou, I fully agree with you there.
He preferred to keep his mouth shut about the whole thing while Usman and Adesayna were talking about what Du Plessis was saying back in March during the press conference that caused all this ruckus about who is representing what country.
To him he only cared about the money and how to make that $30million his take will be in his next bout but in the ring instead of the octagon.
It seems that he was the smartest one out of all of these guys and that is including Dana White who was trying to tie him down to a contract within his organization and on a short leash.
Kind of like what Israel was wearing on his neck at his last fight.

Well, it was Merab Dvalishvili who steals Suga Sean O’Malley's Jacket and was just kind of happy in the process of doing so but surely the trash-talking of Israel Adesanya has gone too much and become more childish in the process is really out of hand right now, but surely as a Champion Adesanya might be thinking Superiority over Dricus Du Plessis, well for this he might give superiority complex vibe over Dricus Du Plessis, and yes he turn out to be the villain in this kind of situation,


Well, I haven't seen the video of Dricus Du Plessis ever saying that but maybe I will look for it then from that maybe I will also give what I think about it this could be that Israel Adesanya might just be retaliating from the harsh words Dricus Du Plessis ever say to him, and coming from a South African fighter, it must be painful to him, but still Israel Adesanya using his Superiority on the Octagon in confronting Dricus Du Plessis he may have stoop down low for that,

He really acted accordingly to his emotion and he is really showing his bad side well I am a fan of Israel Adesanya but what he have done in the Octagon to Dricus  Du Plessis is just not accordingly to his values for sure, that is Dricus Du Plessis time and he won over Robert Whittaker for sure, even though he is a champion you are right that many have looked upon him even the kids really know him now and idolizes him, it is surely villainous to do such thing, but we still have time this fight will be on September 09, 2023, here is the link of the rumored date of the fight at TAPOLOGY

For sure Israel Adesanya will come up as a heavy favorite again, one of the articles that I have read, predicted that Adesanya will be a heavy favorite in this fight again,


I also thought that the Opponent Holly Holm is not that easy for sure Holm would need to adjust so much for this fight because Mayra Bueno Silva is a terror in the Submission so Holly Holm should know most of the Grappling positions and how to escape those position because 1 wrong move for Holm then it is game over Mayra Bueno Silva will surely capitalize with Holms error for sure and Mayra Bueno Silva can even submits you even if she is under you,

Adesanya in the cage after the fight is like a scene in WWE. We have seen it many times when we were kids watching Undertaker and Hulk Hogan. It's all drama for the fight promotion. We're still fooled though because it's a real fight than the ones we see on WWE.

Ngannou knows it better which is why he called his own production GIMIK Fight Promotions. It's all Gimik. Dricus and Izzy are probably preparing to be on the top of PFL Africa which was recently launched.

I think that's what I said too.
But let's also be real, what he did in the Octagon was a foolish move and that's because that's not his fight. He can talk all he wants but do it on his fight, that ain't his floor yet so a big mistake.
He may have planned it but I don't think what he said is all planned too. Emotions came out and as a sportsman, you don't let your emotion get the better of you.

I am not against you. I am an Adesanya fan. In fact, I was one of the fans that boosted him here in this thread, and the other one and my full support was on him against Pereira. But again, in my own eyes what he did was not right, he crossed the line but that doesn't mean I will not support him. I will still bet for him without any doubts because I believe he is the real champion in that weight class.

I respect your own point of view about what he did on the Octagon after the Dricus win. It's you, not me.
