Some of the names on the prelims are very exciting. Basharat, Cortez, Riley, Garbrandt, Gable, Whittaker!

I like Bobby Green a lot but I hope McKinney can get the win. Paddy vs BSD should be very good.

As for the main, I just really don't see Conor winning this.

[DanielOnorato]

Mcgregor by KO,  pimblett by flying knee ko or submission wins within distance , Bautista by decision, Kavanaugh by decision, green mckinney could go either way but it will be quick by ko one way or another. Most likely McKinney. I'll post further thoughts on the prelims upon further review.

I’m pumped for Gable fight. I think he can take UFC by storm before it’s all said and done. Guys that big should not be able to move that quickly. 

I’ve gone back and forth on McGregor. But man from a physical standpoint he looks phenomenal. 

[TheRoJoShow]

Max by TKO and Paddy by decision

[AJJ_Sports]

Max in 3

Crazy seeing Robert Whittaker on a prelim. 

[Clifton]

I think Max is going to win; but if Conor has any shot it’s gotta be in the first two rounds IMO. 

[Shmatt]

Safe money is Holloway I get that but with the upsets this year idk who to pick anymore

Totally uninterested in street fighting techniques!!

Has nothing to do with TEXAS VARSITY SPORTS!!

Responsible parents do not let their minor kids watch this trash unless they are trying to raise delinquents.

Here, my predictions, but only for the main card.
 

Halloway: Conor is such an unknown at this point, since he hasn’t fought in four or five years. I can see him winning by knock out in the early rounds, but if it gets into the third round and beyond, I think Max takes it.

Paddy over BSD

Sandhagen over Bautista

Royval over Kavanagh

McKinney over King

That’s OK. You don’t have to watch or comment on this thread either. Hook ‘em!
