My picks for tomorrow's fights,

Kai Kara-France VS Amir Albazi

I really like Kai Kara-France he surely got a good Takedown Defense and that Nasty punching power that he got he can 1 hit KO Albazi, but Amir Albazi got a mean takedown and submission that is really hard to pass by, I really think that Albazi could be a pressure for Kara-France, and Albazi has the height and reach advantage so getting into submission with Kara-France will not be difficult this is just my assessment in what may have happened I really think Amir Albazi has a lot of tool to get into Kara-France so my pick is Amir Albazi, Sportsbet odds are 1.93 for Kara-France and 1.88 Albazi,

Alex Caceres VS Daniel Pineda

For this fight Daniel Pineda I really see him as a Common fighter, but he still got that submission wins during that long break after his fight with Jamall Emmers and his return I really think this is not a good time for him because Alex Caceres is a different build than Tucker Lutz he got many tools to dispose of, that long reach from his flexible kicks, and the manner of Submission he has, truly a well-rounded fighter, so my pick is Alex Aceres, Sportsbet odds are 1.54 for Caceres and 2.49 for Pineda,

No Problem I think there isn't any given date for this fight so I should be focusing on the fight at hand, because if there is still no given date prior to the fight that fights is likely still not happening, and this is still in the process of not progressing at all,


Well, If I interpret what Tyson Fury is saying to Israel Adesanya, I think Fury doesn't really want to go inside a cage or an octagon with an MMA fighter, he rather goes on in the Boxing ring with Boxing rules intact, for sure, and if it doesn't have any schedule I would likely rather ignore it, but this is surely one juicy fight,


I tend to go with the fighter that has grappling and wrestling skills for sure, even though Kai Kara France has the speed advantage these two need to clash so contact is necessary so Albazi can hold on and take him to the ground for sure,

Looking at this week's event I haven't seen jeremypwr post a Multi-MasterChallenge for this week's event if you guys manage to see it please inform everybody here,

Agree with your assessment on this main card coming up.

This main event looks very nice and the bookies are seeing both fighters are equal in their abilities since they are dead even at this time having screen captured the markets on Sportsbet.io as shown below:

https://sportsbet.io/sports/mma/ufc/ufc-fight-night-hermansson-vs-allen/matches

The last time I witnessed Kai Kara-France fight it was a no contest as he just dominated his opponent with his sheer speed alone.
I definitely will be placing my bet on him to win against Amir Albazi as I have not seen him in the octagon yet.

I really think we should focus on the event at hand, and the events cards and fights have already been posted, here it is and you can surely go with the provided link, the main event looks awesome in the Flyweight division Kai Kara-France's last fight was Brandon Moreno and he it was a lost, while Amir Albazi was Alessandro Costa and he won that fight via round 3 ground and Punches,


Here are some video's that I think could help most of us here decided on who's the better fighter and who we might think is great to make a pick these two video's will surely get in handy in making decision and if there are someone here that doesn't really have idea about the fighters and about the Main Event and who's going to fight in the Main Event then you came to the right place, just watch the videos and you will have an idea on who's going to fight,

Let me reiterate then.
When Dana White says something about a fight then it would presumably be official.
While if it was first mentioned on a podcast such as the Joe Rogan experience show. Then that would be speculation.
And since you said it was talked about months ago(just brought it back into light recently), while Dana just announced it last week on someone's interview captured on their social media.
Dana White talks Power Slap 2, Nate Diaz, Offers Tyson Fury contract to fight Jon Jones in the UFC
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5hAWhdkqfhE

I will tend to lean towards what the boss Dana White would have to say about anything as concrete evidence going forward when it comes to a match taking place in his own organization.

Dana White did not start this topic, Tyson Fury made a statement in social media last week to a podcast of Joe Rogan which was recorded months ago in which Joe Rogan says that if they fights one on one inside a room, he will bet on Jon Jones and there is no way anyone would beat him in a full on combat battle. Tyson Fury did not like that statement and he blasted Joe Rogan and challenged Jon Jones and Jon Jones responded to that challenge and invited to fight in MMA and during that period Dana White was asked about the question in an interview and he gave Tyson Fury the offer to fight in MMA and Tyson Fury backtracked as he is only interested in Boxing and not MMA.

Yes @jakelyson Chanel Sonnen discussed this here on his channel:
Dana White’s offer’s Tyson Fury UFC fight vs Jon Jones…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlXC2s6SBcU

Also Micheal Bisping even denounced the notion of the fight even going to happen since Tyson does not want to fight in an octagon:
BISPING: TYSON FURY BACK-PEDDLES ON FIGHTING JON JONES
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ptz2n99iyr8

It was all announced by Dana White just to cause hype and nothing more than that.

Thanks for the insight about this it could surely be a good help when these two fights but right now I think that the UFC has a break now they don't have an event this week but at least this future fights are surely great to make discussion now that this week is a break for the UFC for sure the odds will surely go towards Khamzat Chimaev for this event,


Right now I am surely looking forward to that exhibition match between Jon Jones VS Tyson Fury but there is a video circulating of Tyson Fury having a Conversation with Israel Adesanya and Tyson Fury is saying he ain't going in no cage here is the link https://youtube.com/shorts/5e3lfxWwLfU?feature=share

This could be a one-sided fight in my opinion if you look at the two Kamaru Usman is not really engaging in the ground so much if these two would fight on the ground Khamzat Chimaev will have more power because he is younger than Usman, If you have seen the 3 big fights of Khamzat Chimaev and what he has done to those three you can surely see the difference in terms of technique and power, I am talking about Chimaev's fight with, Li Jingliang, Gilbert Burns, and Kevin Holland,



There is a lot of engagement happening with Boxing and there are some big promoters in that combat sport because it is well known than MMA, so if this fight continues MMA will now have exposure to other people that didn't know about MMA, I think many will get interested about it, regarding the number of Tyson Fury fans this is a great opportunity in my opinion, for me, it is a great engagement and Dana White is investing in it that will surely have a potential to profit,

There are some that are wondering if the Sportsbet betting link might be the wrong link and if it might be a different fight event, I will tell you guys it is the correct one you might notice that it was UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs. Allen that is because the real Main Event for this event was between
Jack Hermansson vs. Brendan Allen in the 1st place but suddenly Hermansson Withdrew and so the Main Event turned into Kai Kara-France VS Amir Albazi, and maybe that is why the fight was suddenly delayed or something but yeah Sportsbet or maybe in another bookie didn't change the title for the fight they still go with UFC Fight Night: Hermansson vs. Allen well you just need to look for the specific fight you like and I think you will surely see it,

Actually, 1st time to see these fighters Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev that are having exchange words on their social media but it is likely looking at their previous fights I can say that Khamzat Chimaev is going to be the odds favorite for sure he is younger, No very younger than Kamaru Usman, at 29 years old only while Usman is already 36, for sure we can say that Chimaev has a lot of advantage in this fight, even though both have a ground game I think Khamzat Chimaev in what I have seen in his fight videos has a more advance ground game than Usman,


I think Dana White is thinking of money more than his fighters he surely knows the big PPV when Jon Jones fights with Tyson Fury, and for sure Dana White is good at seeing a potential money-making fight and this is imminent with the number of people giving a thing for these two fighters, so yeah this is going to be a great fight for sure, and about Ngannou there could be a thing about it giving Jones a boxing match it is to show Francis Ngannou an opportunity for him leaving UFC, but for sure Dana White will still not give it to Ngannou even if he doesn't leave UFC,

Heard about Usman wanting to have a match against Khamzat Chimaev yesterday making the rounds around UFC media.
The thing is that Khamzat has been banned from traveling to the United States.
So it would need to be where they have set for it to take place at fight island in Abu Dhabi.

This is the first I had heard of Tyson Fury wanting to fight Jon Jones.
Because honestly, I am not into the whole boxing spectacle it has become and let it go from my crosshairs since the golden age of the sport, When the real Tyson was still in the ring, Iron Mike that is.
Because now you have Jake Paul and the like, it has become just pure nonsense and a circus with him being head clown.
I would take the UFC teaming up with WWE any day of the week compared to what the sport of boxing has become.
Only my opinion so do not take offense to it @YuginKadoya
But that is why I see Fury calling out a recent championed UFC fighter in Jones, to me, just utter showboating at this stage.

You just can not take off the Preliminary because there are still fights in there that have the potential for a beatdown, there are times that the Preliminary side could be a sudden banger if you can give it a try, but it is your decision to skip it because the last event most of the Preliminary was some great stuff,
in it but surely you still have time to think about it because the fight is next weekend we are on Hiatus for the UFC event,

UFC crazy news right now we are expecting a banger of a fight because Khamzat Chimaev is now having a fight with the ex-champion Kamaru Usman, and after that, he doesn't care anymore about who's next on his list whether it is Leon Edwards or Israel Adesanya, man for me this is a hot take and I will definitely see this as a great fight aswell because for Khamzat Chimaev, Edwards and Adesanya are the same to him he can surely go towards them and Smeesh them with ease, Here are the NEWS

And talking about Dana White is biased against Jon Jones, he is considering Jone Jones to fight Tyson Fury and will Allow it while he doesn't allow Francis Ngannou back then to have his boxing match, talk about Dana "The Bias" White, maybe this is showing Ngannou that he can give something if he likes the guy, but whatever White is just doing it because of the PFL contract Signing news that could disrupt a ripple between UFC and PFL, and Dana White is giving his kind of ripple to the add, here is the NEWS

Taking offs the Preliminary Cards I really think that the Main Card is the only interesting fight right now, that could win Via KO/TKO or submission, I really see this as an opportunity for most of the fighters here to regain their confidence and maybe gain a decent win because most of them come from a recent loss in a fight, I really think this is a great opportunity for them for sure, and this event is going to be next week so we don't have any even this weekend,

Actually, I was really waiting for UFC 289, the Co-Main Event Charles Oliveira VS Beneil Dariush fight, even though the Main Event is between two girls Amanda Nunes against Irene Aldana I feel like I already know what is going to happen with the Main Event and the most exciting one will surely be the Co-Main Event fight,

I think we are moving on to a new event and this is the next event for UFC,

Sportsbet odds - SPORTSBETS

It was a good decision to go with Mackenzie Dern and Joaquin Buckley because these two fighters are the only ones I know and Edmen Shahbazyan and  Anthony Hernandez I really don't have any idea at all, but watching the fight with Anthony Hernandez and looking at Edmen Shahbazyan's records and stat I surely understand why, why Anthony Hernandez win the match, but surely Dern and Buckley deserves the win and for this event even though this is just a fight night it was like the Main Event because there are a lot of KO/TKO ending and it was really a surprise, to see,

---

The result of my picks

Mackenzie Dern (-170) VS Angela Hill (+145) - Decision WIN

Mackenzie Dern is actually a beast from the stand-up she was really racking and dominating Angela Hill, I really think Hill needs to retire after this fight, but I guess she will think even more about this, but surely she can not escape those takedowns Mackenzie Dern just don't have enough time to finish Hill with the submission, but likely it was a great fight and a fun fight to watch,

Andre Fialho (+185)  VS Joaquin Buckley (-215) - KO WIN

Andre Fialho doesn't see the kick and just like I thought Fialho will surely have a difficult time with Buckley because of that combination of accurate kicks and punches, and I was right about it, he just saw the faints but the upcoming kick he doesn't really see it and that has dropped him to the ground and Buckley will have a slow follow up on Fialho but the referee has already stopped the fight, that kicks really was deep on Fialho, and it was over,

Result of my full fight for the UFC Fight Night: Dern vs. Hill I was great with this result I think I will go and make my prediction in the next Multi-Master Bet

@owengtam09
Congratulations to you for these two fights were good selections to make on the main card.
I managed to watch the main event and it went the full five rounds with Dern dominating each and every round.
Just surprised she didn't get the submission in the end. But all respect to Hill as she took a tremendous amount of damage and still stood standing at the end.
Over all the card was a good one and should keep the UFC fans expectations fulfilled until June 3 when the next event will be taking place at the Apex with Kara France vs Amir Albazi.

I think you got a tremendous pick actually all that is my pick aswell if I would manage to give it a try in the Multi-master challenge but yeah I was really not the type to try and make a huge risk like that but I may try someday, well the event is now starting it is nearing Andre Fialho VS Joaquin Buckley so I am going to drop this prediction of mine here aswell,

Mackenzie Dern (-170) VS Angela Hill (+145)

Angela Hill surely got some nasty combination with her striking and it is imminent in her latest fight against Emily Ducote but surely she doesn't have that power punch that could knock out her opponent because if the fight against Mackenzie Dern goes the distance the favor will then went to Dern this could surely end up in the ground and even with great takedown defense Mackenzie Dern is surely persistent with his ground game and might submit Angela Hill in the end so my pick is Mackenzie Dern,

Andre Fialho (+185)  VS Joaquin Buckley (-215)

Fialho is a brawler and his fight with Jake Matthews has proven that he isn't a technical fighter at all, while Joaquin Buckley got a combination of Kicks and punches for a good combination, and for this Joaquin Buckley has the advantage with the reach even though Fialho is much taller than him, I think Buckley will surely use his advantage with the kicks and surely those leg kick will surely be effective against Fialho so my pick is Joaquin Buckley,

UFC fight night 224 or as most know it as, UFC Vegas 73 will be starting in an hour and a half.
Two fights which were scheduled this fight card when I was checking the statistics on some of the fighters were cancelled early on:
Raquel Pennington vs Irene Aldana and Emily Ducote vs Polyana Viana.
Those two bouts were probably replaced already since it is showing a full card of fights ahead for the night.
The two I am looking forward to are:
Chase Hooper Vs. Nick Fiore & Carolina Kowalkiewicz Vs. Vanessa Demopoulos
As well the main event with Mackenzie Dern being the favorite right before the night begins.

Prelims have began and can be bet on here:
https://sportsbet.io/sports/mma/ufc/ufc-fight-night-pennington-vs-aldana-2/matches

Here are my prediction and picks and with Sportsbet's Odds

Mackenzie Dern VS Angela Hill

The Sportsbet odds for this fight are 1.57 for Derns and 2.41 for Hill Well, I can not say if Angela Hill improve his takedown defense but she always says in her interview that her takedown defense was improved, even so, Hill can not underestimate Mackenzie Dern in the stand-up even though all of her wins were on the ground her striking can surely cause her opponent to underestimate her on that field but when it comes to the ground she is superb, for me I think they will surely exchange blows on the stand-up and when Dern has softened Hill she can surely go with that submission from there, or if Hill is dominating the stand-up she will surely capitalize with the takedown, there are a lot of option for Dern for an attack so my pick is Mackenzie Dern,

Edmen Shahbazyan VS Anthony Hernandez

The Sportsbet odds for this fight are 2.70 for Shahbazyan and 1.47 for Hernandez, Edmen Shahbazyan is a pure striker but if given a chance when his opponent could give their back he can surely go with the rear naked choke, but Anthony Hernandez has a good submission and adapts his submission sets with every opponent he fights, I am really curious with Anthony Hernandez style it is like he is adapting when he was beaten by a grappler with a rear naked choke his next fight he will win via armbar then when Markus Perez defeated him with an Anaconda Choke he later would apply this with his next fight with Jun Yong Park and win via Anaconda choke I really think Anthony Hernandez has a lot of tools he can throw at Edmen Shahbazyan so my pick is Anthony Hernandez,

Andre Fialho VS Joaquin Buckley

The Sportsbet odds for this fight are 2.80 for Fialho and 1.44 for Buckley, Andre Fialho is a brawler surely he would strike but he is not really a technical fighter, while Joaquin Buckley has a combination of kicks and punches, but Buckley surely has an accurate kick, with this combination I think he got some range against Fialho, even though Fialho is much taller Buckley still got much range needed in giving Andre Fialho a hard time so my pick is Joaquin Buckley,
