🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread

[tokeweed]

Surely this fight has brought great hype to the industry of UFC where the fight is the most awaited fight this month surely this will not be an easy fight for both of them and that's why it would be a pleasure to witness this history. I just want to watch this one live on stream and will not gonna blink because anything could happen because of missed calculations by both fighters. when we looked at social media today, it seems like the majority of the fans are rooting for Charles and I'm sure most of them know the real deal will happen inside the cage and it's a few days more left.

Charles Oliveira could be at a disadvantage with Islam Makhachev, but his determination of Oliveira and going to the length to train wrestling is really assuring that he surely got a plan installed for Makhachev and I really want to see that, I really don't want to see a one-sided fight that is why I would like to see Charles Oliveira get on with it with Islam Makhachev, but I like Makhachev to be victorious in their fight, but I am still not sure who's really going to win,

Stacked!  I love all the match ups except for just a couple of fights.  That's how good it is...  Excited to see Mokaev back in the cage again.  But I feel for Malcom Gordon tho.  Why do the match makers have to do him like that?    He is dead in this match.

The main card is a must watch from start to finish.  All the match ups are good and some of those underdogs could steal the W.  Oliviera, Dariush and Dillashaw could make it too close for comfort for Makhachev, Gamrot and Sterling bettors.

Anyway here's the countdown vid.  Enjoy!

UFC 280:  Countdown
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrBKzNkxpsI

It was a jam-packed event and If I could get a bet on every one of them, I think 2 to 3 fights were the ones that I don't like, but most of it was a good one, for me, I will be taking a great meal and snack and a big gulp just for this event when I watch it, getting a better view as well we can not get this good of an event, a better match up is surely the main event for me I really can't say who's really going to win Makhachev is likely dominant on the ground, but Oliveira is a smart one that could plan a better idea in winning against Islam,

Same...  I'm back and forth between them.  I kinda felt like it's Oliveira a week ago then it was Makhachev when I made my picks for the Multi Master.  Lol.  The thing is, yeah Makhachev hasn't fought an elite grappler before like Oliveira but then again watch Makhachev's last three matches.  He def improved his wrestling.  He's like getting better than Khabib or at least he's looking like he's getting better. 

As a pick I'll take Makhachev but if Oliveira's line goes over 3, I'll take him as a bet.  So it either goes money piles in on Oliveira, I take me some Makhachev hopefully around 1.60 or the money piles in on Makhachev then I take Oliveira if it goes over 3.00.

^  As I've already said, yeah it's gonna be exactly that.  'Why isn't the line skewed towards Makhachev?'.  But then again after the event we could be saying 'wtf were we expecting?  Of course Makhachev wins.'.  Lol.  From a Multi Master perspective I'm picking Makhachev.  But with the event held at Abu Dhabi, Khabib's contingent could get huge backing over there as they're huge Khabib fans.  They'll prolly be betting heavy on Makhachev and cause the line to move last minute, making Oliveira's line go way up in value.  Anything close to and over 3.00 would be tempting.

Anyway here's the Multi Master.  Good luck.

Stake odds right now are 2.49 for Oliveira and 1.54 for Makhachev, maybe because of Khabib Nurmagomedov's legacy that they tend to compare Islam Makhachev to the likes of Khabib Nurmagomedov, I know that these are two different individuals, but comparing their ground game but I think they had different technique, although same Combat Sambo technique and Dagestan wrestling, and for me, I am really torn in deciding who's going to win here I like both fighters, and they have potential in winning, I tend to go into fighters what I think will make Charles Oliveira getting a difficult time with the ground game, Oliveira in stand-up Makhachev on the ground, but surely Oliveira is training his wrestling and upped his takedown defenses, but for me, Islam Makhachev ground game is like a boa constrictor, or you will be in deep waters when you plunge into him Charles Oliveira will surely drown,

Bantamweight: Petr Yan vs. Sean O’Malley

That’s the only fight I really care about or will watch. I’m really curious how it’s going to go. Yan looks like the better and stronger fighter, but when you watch his fights he doesn’t seem to have real knock out power when he lands good shots. Sean is the opposite. He doesn’t look like he could punch his way out of a wet paper bag, but when you watch him fight he knocks people out clean regularly. This is probably why they say Yan has fought much better opponents. I’m very curious how this is going to go.

Well, for me Petr Yan should be careful with the reach advantage of the Pink Poodle and that eye-poking finger of his will surely ruin all of what you see, for me, Petr Yan has a great fight IQ, but Sean O'Malley will do anything in his powers just to win the fight even though playing dirty tricks you can guarantee that, so Petr Yan will need to be very extra careful, with the Pink Poodle,

[Swordsoffreedom]

Have you guys seen odds for Makhachev vs Oliveira fight ? I find it strange, that bookies thought that Oliveira is an underdog with almost 2.5 odd (1.5 for Makhachev).

My two cents.

Oliveira is almost identically dangerous in striking and on the ground, he likes to put pressure. He has over 1000+ techniques how to sub. Makhachev works as number 2, likes to counter. Yes he get punched rarely, but if he get punched well, he looses (his only loss in UFC for example). Compared to Oliveira, who recovers heavy punches on the back. Makhachev technique - go single or double leg, ground and pound or try to kimura or triangle. Oliveira has a lot of more techniques. However, I think Makhachev has more stamina. But question, will it help against Muay Thai aggression and black belt in BJJ ? Olivera is so expert in BJJ, that he uses only hands and legs; he does not even use help of his head to control his opponent. Everyone knows that Makhachev is an expert in wrestling, like Khabib. But check Khabib vs RDA fight. Khabib did not do much against RDA on the ground, and as soon as RDA legs were close to Khabibs head, Khabib steps back and continue fight in stance. Makhachev is not Khabib, he did not put pressure all the fight.

Compare both fighters opponents. Olivera has finished every single top5 fighter (except Makhachev). Makhachevs best opponent was top10 Tsarukyan, who he won by decision. I'd bet on Olivera.

I think Oliveira is going to win, by TKO or sub.

Even if I do think that Charles Oliviera does win by TKO I just cannot think Islam Makhachev is being beaten by Oliviera by submission.

Someone mentioned above, It's difficult to believe Charles Olivera is so proficient at the ground game when he has tapped out 8 times in his career?

If it is a ground-heavy fight, it is going to be a win for Islam Makhachev. There is also a possibility that he will want to take the fight to the ground as well. However, the problem is I don't think his takedown is as effective and unexpected as Khabib's. There is a possibility that Charles Oliviera will try to read Makhachev and expect the takedown, and will attempt to defend it. The problem is if Makhachev can make Oliviera carry his(makhachev's) weight when the fight is on the ground Oliviera will get tired quickly. So I think Oliviera will try to keep fighting and standing up.

Odd's are also supporting Islam Makhachev 

[notblox1]

As a pick I'll take Makhachev but if Oliveira's line goes over 3, I'll take him as a bet.  So it either goes money piles in on Oliveira, I take me some Makhachev hopefully around 1.60 or the money piles in on Makhachev then I take Oliveira if it goes over 3.00.

I would pick Makhachev any time no matter the odds, but I like one other underdog much more and that is T.J. Dillashaw to win against Aljamain Sterling.
This is similar odds like in main event and I can see clear upset and putting Sterling in his place.
All this card is amazing to watch and I can't be sure who will win in this fights but I don't trust Sterling at all.

Bantamweight: Petr Yan vs. Sean O’Malley

That’s the only fight I really care about or will watch. I’m really curious how it’s going to go.

This is probably why they say Yan has fought much better opponents. I’m very curious how this is going to go.

How this will go? I am quite certain that in this fight we will witness many leg kicks from Petr Yan on Sean O'Malley's chicken legs hehe! There will also be Petr Yan's takedowns. I am a fan of O'Malley similar to that I am also a fan of Paddy the Baddy, however, do not be hyped by the UFC's marketing team hehehehe.

Watching it now.
After watching the history of Dillashaw from being a champion and breaking up with the Team Alpha Male and defeating Cody Garbrandt twice to defend his title, it makes me want to bet for him too although it was done in his prime.
Dillashaw being the underdog is what makes it more appealing to me.
Perhaps I will bet the favorite for the main card and the underdog for the co-main event. But above all, three fights will definitely be entertaining.

Sterling after fighting Yan is confident that can defeat Dillashaw. He had made good improvements to his fighting skills and the same strategy can be exercised in fighting Dillashaw.

Charles's belt was stripped and to fight against a fighter compared with Khabib, I can already tell it's a planned defeat. Its just my opinion though.

[YuginKadoya]

Just in Charles Oliveira got his eyes fixed here in the LINK and now I am really torn in the middle on who I think might win here, Imagine Charles Oliveira defeating those high ranking opponents with that kind of eyesight and imagine Charles Oliveira fighting Islam Makhachev with 100% eyesight, this is going to be a perfect opportunity for him to show how good he is I don't know if this is enough for him to defeat Islam Makhachev that will surely get into heavy grappling but we never know if this eyesight correction will surely help him or if it will trouble his psyche when he is in the ring because this will be a new thing for Oliveira for sure,

And after looking at Islam Makhachev's fights video comparing his wrestling to Khabib Nurmagomedov's and Khamzat Chimaev's all three have different grappling and wrestling,

1st] Makhachev is not like Khabib where if he is near the fence Khabib will surely dominate you Makhachev has a similar effect but is not as perfect as Khabib so he needs to correct this when he faces Oliveira,

2nd] Makhachev doesn't have the strength of Khamzat Chimaev that could ragdoll Oliveira all over the octagon but it is still the same chain wrestling Khabib and Chimaev have, but there is a chance that if Oliveira is powerful than Makhachev he could surely get out from that chain wrestling,

But If Islam Makhachev can incorporate these two aspects into his wrestling then he will be unbeatable, there are still holes in his technique and I think Khabib Nurmagomedov will surely notice this and tell Makhachev what to do but is this really enough, I am pretty much excited about the fight but I really still don't know who I am going to bet,

LOL at those chicken legs. I don't know what's on Sean O'Malley's head. But maybe he knows that his legs are too skinny and his slim body too will fold to powerful strikes once he is facing top opposition. If he losses this one badly, he should move up to featherweight and work on his legs and gain some muscles. 

I bet on Yan but I hope he starts strong because the fight is only scheduled for 3 rounds. O'Malley might stay away, work on his jab, throw some kicks and wins a decision.

[TopTort777]

Finally, this thread is so alive, that we have few pages of only Makhachev vs Olivera prediction While few people care about Aljo vs Dillashaw fight. And I will remind, that it is going to be a title fight. Funny that no one is really that much interested in title fight, like it is women title fight Dillashaw has already been UFC bantamweight champion two times and has a chance to become a champion for the third time. Anyone remember a fighter, that has been a champion three times ? I think Randy Couture was the only one who was UFC champ three times, while there are less than 10 (maybe) fighters who were UFC champtions twice in their career.

Those were the days. I'm a fan but didn't really know he was a champion 3x. Must be the reason for being in the hall of fame.
His dirty boxing may not be working well against the hybrids these days who could just jump on the back of their opponents and choke them to death.

I can actually think Olivera will win against Makhachev if Makhachev begins to be aggressive like how he fought with Martins, Olivera can easily find an opening to throw a jab and submit Makhachev. Some situation could change with just one hit and Olivera had done that many times in his career.

I feel like Dillashaw has the edge over Sterling.  Dillashaw has way more experience, better wrestling and better striking than most if not all of Sterling's opponents thus far.  Dillashaw is a wily vet who has a trick or two up his sleeve.  The line is pretty close to value at 2.43.  I mean who would bet for Sterling at 1.56?  Lol.  It's hard to trust him at that line.

Anyway the pre fight press conference was just a few minutes ago...  Enjoy.

Oliviera can take a hit, I'll give him that credit. However, I don't think he is better than Makhachev at the ground game. I may agree that he possesses similar skills when it comes to the ground game as Makhachev, but I don't think he is better than Makhachev.

There is no doubt that Makhachev is a hard puncher, and Oliviera is someone who can withstand multiple hits without losing focus. So, this is obviously going to be an interesting fight between these two. In addition, the fact that Khabib is teaching Makhachev all he needs to know about winning this fight makes me commit to Makhachev. On the other hand, it is also true that in the end, Makhachev will have to be the one who will be responsible for executing the plans in the proper manner.

Yup! that is how Shame O'Malley could win it, and Shame on him for running instead of fighting, and while you fight this skinny poodle you should have your patients and tolerance on high alert to Shame O'Malley's tactics, that lead to some fighters lost to him, he should not be another victim of the Poodle O'Malley Petr Yan could take the fight to the ground but he should be careful with the O'Malley's takedown defense, and because of those reach he could surely end the fight humiliating Yan by punch then running away,

For me, I am talking more about the main event because I still really don't know who's really going to win I really can't decide yet, anything can happen with the main event and because of that it is very exciting what can be the end result, for this, like everyone have said Islam Makhachev was the favorite to win, but many here in the community really pertaining experience of Oliveira with his high ranking fights and now that his eyes were 100% fixed, for me it could be a benefit or it could still be a liability because this will be the 1st time he will fight with a 20/20 vision,

And for T.J. Dillashaw, really is the past champion but in the recent Aljamain Sterling fights with Yan, he has proven his real worth as a champion, and right now Petr Yan has accepted him, but T.J. is no Petr Yan so he needs to be very careful about him,

Oliviera can take a hit, I'll give him that credit. However, I don't think he is better than Makhachev at the ground game. I may agree that he possesses similar skills when it comes to the ground game as Makhachev, but I don't think he is better than Makhachev.

Proper Manner if he wins surely it is really hard for me to take a side but when you said that you have committed to Makhachev because of Khabib Nurmagomedov, makes me think that was the answer, Khabib Nurmagomedov will be on the side teaching Islam Makhachev how to win and he really knows how dangerous Charles Oliveira can be, so I think as a coach for Makhachev he will surely teach him everything on the Dagestan wrestling books, (if there is one) and Islam Makhachev has said that he will be coach Khabib's 1st champion as a coach, that is some pretty much determine words,

[Balmain]

As the fight approached, my excitement began to increase. Would you look at these situations of Charles, how he started and how he finished the fights. Will there be the same scenario in his fight with Islam, I think Charles will definitely win, but I can't predict how he will end it.

You see the odds of Sugar Sean winning he's definitely the underdog but he can have some unexpected hits and if he catches a surprise, he'll go straight to the belt. Dana say it, I don't remember exactly who said, that if he beat Petr Yan, he would be the new current Mc Gregor. I think it's a big deal if he beats Yan. It's not that easy to beat Yan, the man is steel and he has a very good boxing mind.

I feel the same but maybe I just don't like Sterling at all and I am not being objective enough towards him.
Maybe the reason is his Oscar acting performance that gave him his first title against Petr Yan, but since than I have no respect for him.
I know he won against Petr Yan again this year, but Dillashaw is not going to be easy fight for him and I am sure he will lost some rounds.
Sterling has a reach advantage but he wins his fights mostly by decisions, and Dillashaw has a much better KO and TKO record.

[OgNasty]

I didn’t realize how much taller than Petr Yan Sean O’Malley is. Hearing Sean say he’s 5’5” and then seeing Sean tower over them in the matchup makes me think Yan is going to have to rely on takedowns if he wants to win. I’m starting to lean a bit towards O’Malley taking home the W, which is what I’d like to see. Not sure I’d put my money behind that thought, but it does give me some hope that I’ll get the outcome I want to see.

Indeed this was a very thrilling moment especially for Oliveira fans who had taken a heavy blow from his opponent and caused him to lose his balance, but when he was at the bottom no opponent wanted to grapple with him for fear that Oliviera could finish the match in an unusual way, without reduce my respect for Oliviera if it happens in the match against Islam makachev I am sure Islam will dare to do a ground fight to end it.

Makhachev is one of best fighter at ground and he will get a full instruction during the fight by Khabib, a ground fight need a patience and know the next move he need to end his opponent. Even though Oliveira is a good fighter at ground too, but he need to avoid if he fight against Makhachev, he need to fight like Israel Adesanya who escape every ground fight and fight at distance only.

Whoever will win, I believe a rematch will happen sooner or later.

[kro55]

Proper Manner if he wins surely it is really hard for me to take a side but when you said that you have committed to Makhachev because of Khabib Nurmagomedov, makes me think that was the answer, Khabib Nurmagomedov will be on the side teaching Islam Makhachev how to win and he really knows how dangerous Charles Oliveira can be, so I think as a coach for Makhachev he will surely teach him everything on the Dagestan wrestling books, (if there is one) and Islam Makhachev has said that he will be coach Khabib's 1st champion as a coach, that is some pretty much determine words,

I think having Khabib on his side is going to make Makhachev a lot more dangerous. I have seen in previous fights Khabib instructing Makhachev how to fight and giving some crucial instructions on how to get in better positions to submit his opponent and that worked like a charm for Makhachev. So, I think it is going to be very beneficial to have Khabib on ringside for Makhachev as well.

No disrespect for Charles Oliviera. He also has a substantial amount of experience. He knows exactly what to do at just the right moment. But I think it will be a better option for him if he does not fight Makhachev on the ground for too long. I have also heard Khabib say that the ground game of Makhachev is better compared to Charles Oliviera.
