“I'm going with Islam dlab to win this fight we're taking the fighter Ador for Germany to win this fight um again he's just been way more impressive he's taken on literally anybody that has you know taken him on so far he's fought some veterans who you know 42 and 19 records or whatnot aunz again atunes atunes probably I think that's how his name is is the LFA champion won the LFA welterweight Championship his last fight I beat a guy who 16 and8 I believe for the championship right yeah 18-6 Netto for the belt dulov is just looked better again I understand he hasn't fought in the promotion such as LFA but for uh venito that was his first fight in LFA Walt St in there won the LFA welterweight championship and now he's getting a shot in the contender series like again most guys will get shots on the contender after fighting an LFA or winning the World Championship over the Regional Championship over there by the way why Carlos Le hasn't been given a chance yet in the contender series doesn't make sense to me there's a bunch of guys in that the UFC can take advantage of um who you know guys who don't you know entirely make it on pfl seasons and yet we're giving shots to adulla arami in the last Contender series card where he got dogged on by Tores finny like we told you he was going to but anyways I like d top to win the fight he's far better guys he's got a really good ground game where I think he wins this fight is on the feet though I think he's got a clear Advantage up there I think he knocks out aunz at tunez by first round knock or gets The Knockout in the first round”

“I'm going to pick Jonathan Pearce to win the fight um again they're e they're almost even for a reason you got Jonathan Pearce at you know minus 130 satini coming back at you around that minus plus 100 minus 110 range and I think that's fair because satini could easily just go into this fight and be the clear better Grappler I think again whoever wins the first rounds winning this fight this is not going to be a close fight either way it's close going into it but early on in this fight we are going to know who the better fighter is really I mean that that's kind of how I see this one going whoever dictates where the fight ends up is going to win it if satini is dictating it he's going to be the aggressor on the ground he's going to be the one in top top position if Jonathan Pearce is doing it Jonathan Pearce is going to be again you know limiting dis or you know controlling distance on the feet out striking satini mixing up with his wrestling and his grappling I tend to think that's what's going to happen uh it's just again we have we have two ways of Jonathan Pearce winning this fight on the ground on the feet for satini I really only think he can win on the ground on top of that that's an if he's the better Grappler between him and Jonathan Pearce which I'm slightly going to tend towards Jonathan Pearce for so it going be Jonathan Pearce to get back in the wind com after back-to-back losses Jonathan Pearce picks up the victory in the Apex by unanimous decision”

“give me Rodriguez as we go on to our next one here why is this fight so high on the card why why is Cory mck versus Julia pastri the feature fight on this card maybe this gets changed on tapology obviously it's not tapology has it as the second prelim of the night but on the on the UFC's website they have it as the fourth to last fight I forgot we got Grant Dawson and hafa Garcia next but on the UFC's website this is the fight that's going to go forth to last why Julia pastri is 0 And1 in the UFC went one-onone in the contender series and Cory mcaa is 3 and2 in the UFC but it's coming off a loss ka's never impressed me I'll be honest with you uh you know I I think I picked her to be Jackal M but that's a pick that I just switched myself towards the end of the week I just you know I you know looking more at it I was like uh yeah mcka I think am odim is the better Grappler and that's what happened obviously I just thought again I thought mcka should be able to going into that one I thought mck was going to be able to keep it standing but amod got that one down pretty quickly and finished her and uh actually mckana took her down mod threatened off her back um but mcka like looking back on it mcka doesn't really impress ress me anywhere I mean look at the cheyen vmus fight she beats cheyen vmus but doesn't do anything impressive in that one Miranda Granger she gets her down eventually Smits him with with her Von flu that's probably your best Victory to date in the UFC the Kay Hansen fight you can make the case Kay Hansen won that one in all fairness and then McKenna beats Vanessa demopulos on the contender series like this is just a low-l fight guys it's all this is mcka is not high level at all and for Julia pastri again this is a fighter who lost to Josephine nson in her first fight by unanimous decision pelri sees her only success in the fight wrestling with nson she ends up winning around in that fight because of the grappling she's able to do in the second round but on the feat nson is way better now again mcka is not that great on the feed either she's very slow her combinations don't really come together all that quickly like again I wouldn't be concerned for Julio pastri in the feat against again Cory mcka um but on the ground that's where this fight's going to be one and lost again mcka shot herself in the foot in her last fight against emod because she took emod down eventually again she got Tapped Out the referee stopped the fight but then mcken said oh I didn't half out even though she did and then emim just had to get the submission again it was kind of ridiculous but again it worked out cuz emim eventually got the sub but it was just a weird fight as a whole um it depends on if emim is able to get sorry if poost is able to get this fight down what I will say about pastri unlike emim Al is a good Jiu-Jitsu player her wrestling leaves some to be desired pastri is going to get that takedown on you her wrestling is not that bad as a parent again in the Newson fight she shot three takedowns and got every single one she got one around which is usually in the key that I say for Grapplers in winning fights get one taked down around and you can win it because again the damage that you're able to do and the control time you're able to ride out in that one round or with that one takedown should be enough if you don't let your opponent up you should be able to win the round again palashi didn't do so again she got outstruck and you know Newson got back up to her feet in the third round um or reversed and then got back up to her feet but I think PA austri should be able to get takedowns against Cory mccaan I think that's where again we differentiate her and jacal and amim and don't get me wrong I think 's got better jiujitsu as a whole but control wise I like pastri I think P's able to get a take down here I think she's just able again to stay on top against Cory mcaa Cory mcaa striking doesn't scare me at all that oh I think palashi is going to get boxed up in this fight no and again something else with Cory McKennaenna she's still very young in her career she's 25 years old still training at Team Alpha Male obviously in Sacramento California fighters from Wales now trading in uh Sacramento again she's still young in her career but there's still a lot to be desired at mcka she's got the shortest reach in the UFC with 58 and a half my goodness pastri he's got 63 and mcka is the taller fighter as well mcka is 5 three pastri 52 and mcan's got a 58 in reach yeah uh give me pastri to win the fight she should be able to get this fight down again Elon saw success grappling with mcka but that was because of mcka take of a mcka takedown this time p is going to take mcka down and just going to ride this one out to unanimous decision Victory so give me Julia pastri give me the Brazilian fighter to beat Corey mcaa and she will get it done by unanimous decision to our feature fight it is Grant Dawson taking on hafa Garcia I swear Grant Dawson always just gets really favorable fights I don't know that's just kind of how every time I see Grant Dawson fight it's just oh it's another fight Dawson's a minus 400 favorite in and it's a fight that he's kind of expected to pick up the victory obviously again he got that in the main event of a UFC card as well last year and lost Bobby green King Green knocked him out in 33 seconds and then Dawson's last fight is a fight that again he was I thought more than expected to go out and win against Joe seli and again for good reason he was a huge favorite going that one and he unanimous decisioned his way to victory over seli outg grappled seli out wrestled seli and got the dub what Dawson has done before that again I would say the Demir magula Victory is very impressive that was a fight that he was not a minus 500 favored in but again Dawson will go in there and he will just outwork you he'll out grind you on the ground again King Green caught him on the feet it is what it is for the most part Dawson has fixed his cardio he has fixed the gas tank since again that fight against Ricky Glenn where he just you know died at the end of 15 minutes and really just you know he was just dead to rights at the end of that 15 he has worked on that you saw that in the Jared Gooden fighter he's able to submit him in the third round with the minute to go saw that when he submitted Mark Madison in the third round where he went 15 minutes and looked good so good in doing so against Demir magav and same thing could be said about seli I think again Dawson has fixed the cardio um taking on a guy though and h Garcia is not going to stall out he's not going to stop again Garcia is a guy who is there for all 15 minutes he is a high Tempo type guy a guy that is more than willing to Grapple with you but at the same time a guy who will punch your face into if you're not able get if you're not willing to Grapple with him that's what he did against Klay Guida he was able to be really successful in that fight really turned up the volume against Guida had 141 significant strikes in that fight what you did before that he goes up there he beats mahash by unanimous decision uses the grappling Dart Clos beats him but that's fine Dart Clos is a really good you know really good fighter in his own right um Garcia beats Jesse Ronson beats Natan Levy and that's what he's done since again dropping his first two fights in the UFC to nasro hak hakos hakos and Chris Gritz Gritz mocker um I I just think Dawson's better though again yeah HFA Garcia he's been able to you know out grapple naton Levy Jesse Ronson mahash but Grant Dawson's on a whole another level again I don't know where Dawson's you know Peak is I I don't think it's I don't think it's the title Nordo I think is the top five maybe the top 10 I think is where Grant Dawson will kind of peek out at um but against another guy who's just you know another Grappler in Garcia Dawson's just better he's going to be the much stronger guy in this one he's the much bigger guy and I just like his wrestling compared to what hfer Garcia's got naton Levy again did get out grappled by Hoffer Garcia and got out scrambled and out wrestled but at the same time Nan Levy was still able to take Garcia down three times in that fight again Garcia just got the better of some of the grappling exchanges but still I like Dawson to go out here and take care of business he should obviously do that I'd be concerned for Dawson if gar Garcia's able to stuff takedowns because that's something that again could happen if Garcia was able to stuff everything Dawson throwing at him maybe then Garcia's able to box him up and win um because again Garcia's more than willing to just get into a stand and trade and you know a brawling type fight um and he's a tough guy to put away too he's got a good [ __ ] on him but I do think Dawson's able to find ways to get the fight on the ground he's just going to use his wrestling use those doub”
