🥊 The UFC Info and Prediction Thread

[Pumared]

Lets move on to next event, UFC 327. Finally a nice card. Jiri probably is going to take his belt back, who he vacated long time ago. Or Ulberg is going to continue his winning streak? Odds are almost even.

Costa vs Murzakanov in light heavyweight matchup. Paulo Costa debut in new division. Secret juice did not let him to stay in middleweight anymore Nice opponent for a debut fight. Dude with 16-0 and 12 knockouts There is a chance that Costa would screw things and cancel fight last second.

I think Prochazka should win this with relative ease. He's good at striking, he can throw some crazy punches, and the best thing about him is that you never know what he's going to do. He's unpredictable at times, and for me, that's more of an advantage than anything else.

Prochazka is gambling of UFC. You never know what this crazy samurai will do in the octagon.

I dont think Prochazka is gambling with UFC.
Just look at his fight record, he won most of his fights and he has much more experience than Ulberg, even if he is few years younger than him.
He only lost from Pereira in UFC and he had TKO wins against many other top guys.
And yes I know about his crazy preparations for fights

By gambling I meant that look at his fighting style. When was the last time you remember him losing by decision or not getting face smashed? He is testing his luck by going low defense and gamble if his chin is strong for this punch or not. Each exchange he goes in is a stress for his fans Each time before attack he is throwing dice (like in AD&D ), then he either gets damage or not, or get it critical

Pumared said that Prochazka is unpredictable, but I would say that he surprises his opponents with no defense and risky attacks. Like all-in or nothing

I don't remember exactly, but if I'm not mistaken, Poatan kicked him precisely because he realized he was going to come forward without much defense in the head. It was something like that, and in a way, that's also surprising because in the middle of a fight, a great fighter not having that kind of defense is alarming.

I'm checking the odds and I see Prochazka Vs Ulberg is almost 50/50 fight with no clear favourite.
I honestly don't know who I would pick if I had to bet. Ulberg seems more disciplined and organised as compared to chaotic and unpredictable Jiri, but who knows if this will work in his favour or the opposite.
We can tell with near certainty that the fight will not go to a distance. Ulberg has a good finish ratio and only 4 out og his 14 fights went to judges. Prochazka is on another level. The last time any of his fights was resolved by decision was 10 years ago. He either KO's or gets KO'ed.
I'm rooting for Jiri, as I like him for his entertaining style, but it's anyone's fight.

Where is tokeweed? Few days left until next event, and he hasnt posted conference or previous fight video, nor havent announced his crazy-huge-parlay picks.

I would go with Prochazka. Murzakanov by KO, because only hope for Costa to win is to rely on his athletics and stamina. I dont think Murzakanov is experienced enough in long fights. Blaydes by KO/TKO. Because he is fighting unranked (again, UFC started to frequently put unranked with top5 guys) who has never been tested by real top opponent. Hokit is new to MMA. Any top guy must eat such opponents for breakfast. And probably Pico. Even though his opponent is former Bellator champ with numerous title defenses, and tons of experience. Pitbull isnt doing good in UFC. Kinda cursed.

Rainbet is having a promotion for the big UFC 327 event on Saturday
I do not want to give my official prediction  but here's the promo

It appears that everyone is predicting that it will be a victory for Jiri? Heheheh I speculate that the strange movements and tactics of Jiri will cause him to be very much tired and this will be the chance of Carlos Ulberg to cause a knockout with a kick on Jiri's head or give him a power pants hehehehe.

I very much agree on the odds for this, however!

[pawel7777]

Odds for the UFC 327 fights from 2up.io are as follows:

Jiri Prochazka x1.82 Vs Carlos Ulberg x1.90
Kevin Holland x1.88 Vs Randy Brown x1.84
Cub Swanson x1.82 Vs Nate Landwehr x1.90
Chris Padilla x1.57 Vs Marquel Mederos x2.28
Francisco Prado x2.38 Vs Charlie Radtke x1.53
Kelvin Gastelum x1.34 Vs Vicente Luque x3.04
Curtis Blaydes x1.76 Vs Josh Hokit x1.98
Mateusz Gamrot x1.47 Vs Esteban Ribovics x2.53
Patricio Freire x3.16 Vs Aaron Pico x1.32
Tatiana Suárez x1.60 Vs Lupita Godinez x2.23
Dominick Reyes x1.64 Vs Johnny Walker x2.15

The event looks promising, we have a few good pairs here. Apart from the main fight, the one that interests me the most is Gamrot Vs Ribovics. Gamrot is the clear favourite but it won't be easy. Argentinian is well-rounded with a good finish ratio, including 7 KO and 5 submissions (out of the total of 15 wins).
Gamrot announced that he's going to go with a different style in this fight. If that's true, there's a risk it could backfire.
