People are downvoting my take on Montel Jackson opponent since beating Brian Kelliher in 2017 or 2018, but come on now, Yayha is a fossil, and 4 of his 5 other wins aren’t UFC level,Jessie Straider, Andre Soukampth, Felipe Colires and JP Buys, The only respectable win is Julio Arce because he isn’t **** or 100 years old, But Arce isn’t that great. He’s UFC level

Montell is a good fighter and entertaining fighter, I just find the way the UFC matchmake him boring, It Bellator matchmaking which is so boring, He too good to be fighting jobber, It cool he’s getting a talented fighter because that make it interesting and not a mismatch , one of the best fights on the card for me

I have no idea how Gutierrez v. Jackson is on the undercard here.  Seems like a bit of an oversight.

@DamienHandel420 
Honestly, Gutierrez isn't much better. Aside from sharing Colares as a common opponent with Montel, of the guys he beat during his run only one of them remains in the UFC and that's a 3-4 Danaa. 

Dude got extremely lucky with his matchmaking and even then had a couple of splits that could've gone the other way. I get the feeling Montel might overpower him everywhere, but especially in the wrestling.

I think you might be underselling the Arce win a little. Arce has wins over Santos and Ewell at BW, and Erosa and Ige at featherweight. He has great striking and no major holes to exploit as a fighter. Fighters like Arce represent what people mean when they say "BW is stacked" as nearly 2 years back he went toe to toe with Yadong in a very close fight (until he was finished halfway through the second round, yeah I know) and he's relatively unknown being outside of the rankings. A win over Arce is one of the best wins in unranked BW. Also Yahya might be ancient, but he obviously excels in jiu-jitsu and Montel showed good jiujitsu awareness disengaging from some potentially dangerous positions on the mat, as brief as their fight was. 

If I'm scared of anything next Saturday it's how Montel's chicken legs will take Gutierrez's leg kicks, but Montel's straight punches and 8 inch reach advantage should overcome that (I hope).

The +200 Maness Line is Great

Predictions: 7 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 465 Points   |   Tied for 335th

Maness is a genuinely great underdog, outside of pure jiu jitsu I can't see where Mendonca has him beat. Maybe power and speed, but Maness has more than enough finishing power of his own and I could see him wrestling Mendonca to slow him down or disrupt his pace. Also guys don't be so confident that he'll look like **** returning to his previous weight class. I'm sure people who bet against Hernandez and Swanson this year thought the same, so it's impossible to determine just how impactful that may be

Pyfer vs. Razak Alhassan
Joe Pyfer, TKO, R1
Pyfer should be able to win as long as he avoids the power coming back

Morono vs. Buckley
Joaquin Buckley, TKO, R2
I can see Alex winning by sub or Buckley getting a KO. DK ain't gonna get my money from this one bc it could end in Rd 1 or be a split decision.

Dober vs. Glenn
Drew Dober, TKO, R1
Should be a fun one while it lasts

Kowalkiewicz vs. Belbiţă
Karolina Kowalkiewicz, DEC
Karolina should be able to win convincingly

Gutierrez has always struggled with boxers and wrestlers & Montel can do both very well

I'd be very surprised if Chris beat Montel, don't think your average striker matches up well with Jackson, and so far only really good, dogged wrestlers like Johns and Simon have been able to neutralize him. His build is just too OP for non-elite BWs I think.

Honestly find myself intrigued by the KK fight. Belbita is someone I've never rated, but she's pretty young and big for the weight class, and has the aggressive approach judges love in this day and age. Took a chance on her because Karolina is ancient, short and the girls she's beaten recently are either one-dimensional (Vanessa, Silvana) or old (Herrig, Silvana again lol), so I'm not sold on her actually having turned back the clock. 

Big worry is Diana's TDD, since it's nonexistent and instead she favors an offensive bottom game. Still thought it worth it to take a stab at her since WMMA underdogs are tried and true.

@thesnake Fr, Montel has such a crazy build for 135. 5”10 is alreayd pretty big but 75.5 inch reach is insane; there’s heavyweights with shorter reaches lol.

Just realized the Maness fight is at 125. ***? Someone needs to stop these fighters cutting so much weight. I guess I'll just pick whoever looks ****tier on the scales and probably not bet
