hey I’m rioo you might know me better as Lucas Tracy’s worst nightmare and the man Jesse on fire hopes his son grows up to be like I have brought you masterpieces like Drew Dober culling the lightweight division Alexa Grasso knows exactly what she’s doing Anthony pigart Smith simulator Anthony Smith is a human pig hybrid today I am bringing you the best and most accurate predictions and full card breakdown for UFC Fight Night Nicola vers Perez before we get into it drop a like on the video if you’re new to the channel subscribe the famous YouTuber r [Music] the prelim start out with mahate versus Gabriel bonitz this is like a last minute Shuffle I believe because I think it was supposed to be matash recki vers Gabriel Bonitas who and it was also supposed to be Matos rebei vers Joel Alvarez I believe before this but now it’s two different guys completely different matchup at lightweight here mahate versus Gabriel bonitz Gabriel bonitz I’m going to take mahate even though sometimes these are shandu chinan don’t deliver but uh I’m going to take my I’m going to ride with my China chinan here I’m going to take mahate get in the KO crack them in the first round get him out of there taking first round KO for masate Ivana Petrovic versus nalang I’m just going to take Petrovic decision who gives a gosh darn about this fight hey G willikers hey yo jit G williker jit this fight sucks I’m taking Petrovic all right James plop what what kind of Peruvian Welshman name is this versus Chris Padilla UFC debut for both these guys interesting you know I’m going to take uh flop flop however you say that guy’s name Lop uh over Padilla in this one second round KO for laop he’s had the Dana White Contender Ser not that that tell you that much anymore but you know it does tell us a little bit more than Padilla so I’m going to take flop fighting a little bit better competition pretty good KO he’s riding that nice five fight win streak so take him by the uh taking him finding that KO in the second now Catlin Suza versus Marik man well Marik Man actually sucks and I don’t know there’s screw this well WMA hey G willikers what all the women on this card Katlin Souza decision don’t d ma versus kado listen I don’t think kado is that good but d ma is arguably worse I think this is going to be a boring fight and if it does go long I’m taking kamado being both two out strike out point out grapple just mix it up whatever he needs to do well donel might have regardless I think kamado is going to be able to out hustle if you can even use that word and out Point D tell May over three it’s going to be a boring fight K shado takes it d all right we have Austin hubard vers Michael figlock cage Warrior Alam vers failed tough uh whatever that season was where they were like giving people a second shot because he’s been in the UFC before Austin hoard right and he got CAU now he’s back coming off the loss to um halau getting triangled by halau fig laac listen he’s I don’t like these cage Warrior guys at the end of the day but I do think he’s going to beat Austin hubard I think he’s that much better in Austin hub should be able to control the pace and the distance and if anything outpoint Austin hubard to a decision so I’m going to take fig LA taking a decision here now Ronnie yaaya versus Victor Henry is our futured prelim Ronnie yaaya very old at this point especially for the smaller weight classes like he’s not old as a man but he’s old for bantamweight for sure you know the 39 almost 40y old Mark Victor Henry though not that much younger 36 right something around there um now I do think M Victor Henry is holding up nicely though his speed and all that stuff that low blow to him in the last fight was insane one of the worst low bows I’ve ever seen it was like a GU kick right with the toe to the GU and Dan White even said he was like puking in the back and rolling around in pain he had to be rushed to the emergency room but uh Hey as long as nothing crazy happens like that like yanay doesn’t hoof him in the GU I think Victor Henry should be able to just outwork Ronnie pretty much everywhere there and keep the fight where he wants it so I’m going to take Victor Henry getting a decision in this one now we have Tim Means versus OS medit this is potentially going to be a fun fight it opens up our main card this weekend and Os mic has been looking good at 170 I like it he’s got the power and the speed he’s got that lightweight speed and he’s got like more power he’s not fixed his weakness to submissions and grappling right but honestly mtoc orobi is insane he’s got a different style of grappling he’s like an orc grapple gra once he gets his hands on you it’s over so Oro is fighting Elvis Brer and I think if he can get his hands on Elvis Brer it’s over for brener as well who’s an absolute dog throat punched gam cuded right like literally throw punch km in this matchup here I don’t think Tim Means is going to have the speed he’s got power but it’s like Hero’s weakness OS medic OS medic’s weakness is really in the grappling he’s got nice hands nice defense he’s got great combinations and great finish ability with his striking so I think he’s going to be able to finish Tim Means by the second I’m going to take him by the second round KO now Jonathan Pierce versus David onama this is a sus fight guys this is a sus fight I’m one of the only people who’s going to be telling you this type of stuff because I keep it real with my viewers David onama sus as heck man he had he used to be under James Krauss and well I’m a James kuss enjoyer at the end of the day I don’t want to see people lose money or anything on like rigged fights like hey at the end of the day you’re gambling I guess you deserve to lose your money if you’re going to lose it but listen guys go watch the Nate landar versus David onama fight especially turn the sound off except for when James Krauss comes in the corner onama it’s one of the suest fights I’ve ever seen that was right before the the betting scandal with James CRS got busted so I I don’t know how not I can’t not implicating anything about David onama but it was a very very weird fight and even from Nate landord side there was all sorts of weird moments where like it was almost like David onama was just falling to the ground right he was taking like all these pillow fish shots from Land wear and then like choosing when to fall to the ground and then land wear like let him up walk away play to the crowd onama would like wait and stuff and they were kind of like emoting at each other it almost looked like both of them may have said had a little James kuss a meeting with James kuss and old KY told them to let it go to the distance we’ll both make a bag land where will’ll take it or whatever I don’t know all I’m saying is this fight suas for that reason because I do not trust David onama I’m taking Jonathan Pearson this one stylistically it’s a tossup a bit of a stylistic tossup I could definitely see David AMA taking it and you know i’ happy for this fight not to be rigged in any capacity or any Ty of sus happened to it but watch mark my words if there’s any sus fights on this card it’s going to be this one all right jonata denz versus Austin Lane the Austin Lane fighting for his job at this point right probably will not be around in the UFC especially if this fight is either not entertaining or he gets finished Qui he’s got to win this fight he’s basically got to win this fight like he can win it boring I guess he can’t lose it boring and he can’t lose it by KO but I do think janat denz is going to spark them in the first I think janz is going to start really quick Austin Lane doesn’t really have the greatest chin a lot of these football guys don’t their Chin’s gone from all their football Drilling and stuff no matter how much they’ve actually ended up playing their Chin’s gone but like they’re it’s like whatever point being I’m taking jard denz quick finish KO surprise surprise Austin Lane gets sparked now Korean Sila versus Arian lipsky I think this might be one of the few dogs I might be taking a couple dogs on the card here but Arian Li lipsky I’m going to ride with Ariana Li lipsky on this one I think she’s that much better than karini Sylvie and appreciate my mod Matt W shout out Matt W for kind of convincing me and nudging me in this direction here because yeah Karan Silva really has just submitted bums at the end of the day Aron lipsky’s never been finished by submission uh she’s competent with her BJJ she’s got good offensive and defensive BJJ I like her chances on winning this one and out poning Karina Silva taking it by decision let’s move on up to the co-main event this is Ryan span versus mini Anthony Smith hey Ryan span’s fighting Anthony Smith for what the third or fourth time at this point listen Bon gusov deserves to be a slight Underdog in this fight because he has a grappling weakness he’s been submitted by like Wulan o deir and he’s like actually not as good as Anthony Smith which is funny like Anthony Smith is actually decent people are crapping on him right now there’s this whole news cycle right now with Anthony Smith being delusional and all this crap let a brother be delusional hey yo let a jit be delusional let a man Pig he’s a man Pig he shouldn’t even be alive man Pig human pig hybrids are supposed to live for like two years let Anthony Smith who’s molecularly degenerating at a extremely slow rate but still at a crazy rate chat is crap okay but point being bug and Goose I am going to take winning this fight I don’t like Ryan span as a fighter in general I think he’s mentally weak I don’t think he’s a fighter I think he’s barely even an athlete he says he doesn’t even train he does have a decent ground game for light heavyweight and decent like offensive Jiu-Jitsu but Bon gusov I think if he’s just puts him on the back foot tries to avoid getting tangled up with him Sparks him in the first let’s go mini Anthony Smith let’s go to our main event Alex Perez versus Matos Nicola now listen this is funny that manell cap is now what how many fights has he pulled out of and missed waight for and all sorts of stuff now in a row like three fights and he used to call both these guys cowards both and like he’s called uh what was it was it I can’t remember which one he called one of them a genetic Abomination who’s a ly livered coward and all this crap like that and blah blah blah and his Warriors ancestors are warriors and this guy’s a Abomination stuff uh okay well funny enough that these two guys are now fighting but I am going to take Nichol out in this one over Perez uh I think by decision this card is not that exciting to me but 301 does pick up 301’s actually a good card especially if you like lightweight and you like unranked lightweights and like right outside of the lightweights there’s so many good lightweight matchups on 301 and we’ve got the return of Anthony Smith versus VOR patrino so it’s not that bad of a card and then things quickly pick up in June with 302 the Islam Dustin card and then we get a sick UFC Saudi Arabia Fight Night with chamay of Robert Whitaker whole bunch of good fights on that and then the the month wraps up with International fight week with UFC 303 Conor McGregor Chandler and then there’s even like P St a in that week so June’s going to be a crazy month it’s basically International fight month hold fast because May does kind of suck even like the St Louis card is not looking that great they’ve added Buckley and um RAB boyf to that now is the co- Main Event under Lewis and nento but listen I’ll be live for the event this weekend starting at 4M or around then
