Daniel Levi Expert Lean picked Jul 7, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Brad Tavares

Daniel Levi leans toward Brad Tavares. He praises Tavares' takedown defense and balance, which could frustrate Akhmedov and cause him to gas. He notes that Akhmedov hits hard and has been competitive in all his middleweight fights, making the underdog tempting. He thinks the longer the fight goes, the more it favors Tavares, who can point-fight with his jab and leg kicks. He calls it a tough call and mentions that some sharp people are on Tavares.

"i am leaning a little bit towards brad tavares"

Jacob Lines Expert Confident picked Jul 2, 2021 (8 days before fight)

Omari Akhmedov

Jacob also picks Akhmedov, noting his wrestling is different from Antonio Carlos Jr.'s. He thinks Akhmedov will pin Tavares against the fence and work takedowns. He is scared to spend 8600 on Tavares and believes the fight favors the grappler as it goes on.

"i'm picking the omaree he's not my lock of the week but i'm picking on maury"

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Jul 7, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Brad Tavares

I like Tavares by decision. He has great takedown defense and better cardio. Akhmedov will try to wrestle, but Tavares should be able to get back to his feet and out-strike him. Akhmedov slows down in later rounds, and Tavares will pull away. I trust Tavares to win a decision, though he might get taken down early. The over 2.5 rounds is also a good parlay piece.

over 2.5 rounds, Tavares by decision

"i'm going to tavares uh and i'm going to go tavares by decision"

Paul Shaughnessy Expert Confident picked Jul 7, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Bookie Beatdown

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Jul 10, 2021 (fight day)

Brad Tavares

The Guru picks Tavares by 29-27 unanimous decision. He expects Akhmedov to target Tavares' lead leg with kicks early, but Tavares will land jabs and straight left hands. Akhmedov will attempt takedowns but Tavares has excellent takedown defense and will stay on his feet or get up quickly. The failed takedowns will gas Akhmedov, and Tavares will take over in the second and third rounds, with a potential 10-8 third round. The Guru gives Akhmedov the first round.

"brad tavares has the best takedown defense maybe in the ufc ... 29-27 brad tavares gets the job done"

Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Aug 5, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Chris Weidman

Big Brady picks Weidman despite his recent losing streak, citing advantages in wrestling, submission game, and reach. He believes Weidman can take Akhmedov down and avoid a brawl, using a smart game plan similar to Stephen Thompson's. However, he is concerned about Weidman's durability and history of getting knocked out. He predicts a decision win for Weidman.

Maybe Akhmedov KO prop if odds are right

"i like chris weidman to win this fight by decision i think he's going to really tire out akhmed off and if you fight smart this is a such a winnable fight for white men"

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Aug 7, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Omari Akhmedov

Daniel Levi picks Omari Akhmedov to win, possibly by left hook knockout. He argues that Chris Weidman is 'damaged goods' with five knockout losses in his last six fights, and that Akhmedov has underrated power and durability. Levi dismisses the narrative that Akhmedov gasses in the third round, noting that at middleweight he has shown better cardio and even wobbled Ian Heinisch in the third. He also points out that Weidman's chin is suspect and that Akhmedov's wrestling and pressure will be too much.

left hook knockout

"i got omari ahmeda be a left hook knockout here"

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Hesitant picked Aug 4, 2020 (4 days before fight)

Omari Akhmedov

Weidman's chin is a major concern after multiple KO losses, and Akhmedov has power even if he lacks finishes on his record. Akhmedov's wrestling is solid and he has cardio to push the pace. Weidman has advantages in striking and size, but if he gets hit, he could go down. Akhmedov by KO in the second round is the pick, but it's a risky bet.

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Aug 3, 2020 (5 days before fight)

Chris Weidman

The MMA Guru picks Chris Weidman to win by second-round submission via arm triangle. He notes that Omari Akhmedov has a gas tank problem and slows down dramatically, while Weidman has five-round experience and a five-inch reach advantage. He believes Weidman can take Akhmedov down, drain his power, and finish him in the second round. He worries about Weidman's chin but thinks Akhmedov won't have a chance to land cleanly.
