Breakdown of the First UFC Fight Night of 2025

“I think he's probably going to lose his fight by decision”

“if Chris Curtis can actually impose himself and keep the pressure high maybe get some takedowns against the fence and some ground and pound I think Chris Curtis gets it if Chris Curtis can show he's improved and has fight IQ I think he wins but if there's no improvement copy love skirted away with a decision”

“I think Carlson Harris has genuine talent but I think he is a dirty cheat ... if he can't impose his pressure and pick out from the outside land his shots correctly I see Santiago ponzano pressuring him against the cage just volume destroying him”

“I want to lean for Christian Rodriguez ... I like Christian Rodriguez a lot I think he's extremely underrated he's really good at busting these you know new prospects”

“I don't think César Almeida has aged well and gracefully into the UFC ... his grappling is really bad and I I can't see a world where Abdul Rak alhassan doesn't mix up the grappling the Striking and then catches them maybe with a knee or really hard head kick I think that's his path to Victory”

“I think Preston Parsons has a lot of potential in the UFC and I think he's extremely underrated ... I like Jacobe Smith a lot ... I think there's a really good chance this fight's actually an upset”

“the nice thing about Uroš Medić is I feel like he has a style most melter weights don't have ... but uh pun punah helano is generally a pretty average fighter ... I see that happening again ... getting the first or second round tko's”

“Thiago Moisés has been old for a while but he performs really well as an old man ... I think Thiago Moisés poses a threat for just about anyone”

“these guys are both very exciting in my opinion especially when it comes to the Striking ... I don't see a Universe where he wins this fight he's probably going to get flatlined down in the flyweight division”

“the nice thing about Uroš Medić is I feel like he has a style most melter weights don't have ... but uh pun punah helano is generally a pretty average fighter”

“I really like Austin Bashi style ... he's very athletic and he has very slick grappling ... I feel like Arosa has like one of those really deadly Guillotines ... but I'm hoping the actually older fighter in Christian Rodriguez ... we'll see who lasts but this honestly is like a 50-50 fight for me so it'll be exciting to see who wins”
