    @MiketheSnow @raznomore predictions for Miocic v Cormier?

    I think Miocic will get it done, he's the better fighter over five rounds. That first round and a half will be dangerous though

    Miocic looks leaner than normal. Again I think there's room for a 225 division (Stipe came in at 233)

    Cormier to wrestle more this time?


    O'Malley v Vera should be a fun fight. I expect the O'Malley hype will keep growing

    JDS v Rozenstruik. Looking forward to this one but I have no strong opinion. A coin toss.

      @Duluth I don't really like Stipe. There's just something about him. He seems like a nice guy but there's just something there that makes me want DC to take his belt. I also expect Stipe to win though.

      O'Malley is starting to believe his own hype or at least he's starting to play the hype game. Can't blame him for wanting to make up for lost time etc. I wouldn't be surprised if he lost because it's usually when someone starts beefing with more than one party(Vera and Garbrandt) that their focus may not be where it should be. But again I expect him to win.

      JDS has always been one of my guys. I prefer fighters with strong boxing etc. I think this is a good match up stylistically. I just think maybe JDS is slowing down and Rozenstruik, although stopped quickly by Ngannou was on a 4 fight streak. JDS lost to Ngannou and Blades in the lead up to this and hadn't been as busy as Rozenstruik. Could work in JDS favour i guess. Being potentially fresher and better rested.

                            Yoder stealing this with dominant position. I had to cash out. Cash was $101 so made a tidy profit....not $12k though..

                              Yoder either has excellent late head movement or is fluking not getting kod by that over hand right

                                Yoder won that for me.

                                  Great set of prelims so far. Mixture of tough fights and one fantastic arm bar sub.

                                        It’s weird because he gave credit to Stipe in the post fight. But losing DC has always been a pretty cringey DC.

                                          Maybe he was asked to rush to the interview? It didn't look good though

                                          Stipe with a smart fight - wrist control in the clinch, a good amount of body work. He seemed to up the pace in the last minute of most rounds. Shame about the eye but Stipe was already taking control by then

                                          Unfortunate injury in the co-main
