Big Brady Expert Confident picked May 6, 2021 (2 days before fight)

Marcos Rogério de Lima

Big Brady likes de Lima's power and leg kicks, and thinks Greene's poor striking defense (45%) and chin issues will be exploited. He notes Greene has zero takedowns in the UFC, so he won't exploit de Lima's weak takedown defense. Brady predicts de Lima will win by first-round knockout, as de Lima is dangerous early but fades after the first round. He says the under and de Lima in round 1 are good looks, but he wouldn't lay -190 on the moneyline.

De Lima by first round knockout; under 1.5 rounds

"I'm gonna take delima to win by first round knockout i think the under could be a very good look."

Daniel Levi Expert Lean picked May 6, 2021 (2 days before fight)

Maurice Greene

Daniel Levi picks Maurice Greene as a dog, citing de Lima's tendency to get submitted or panic on the ground. He notes Greene's length, volume, and opportunistic submission ability. He acknowledges de Lima's power and early-round threat but thinks Greene can survive and find a finish, possibly via submission. He calls de Lima a 'stunt machine' and expects a volatile fight.

"i'm gonna go with uh maurice green here to submit uh marcos"

Marcos Rogério de Lima

The host picks de Lima to win by TKO, expecting his power to be too much for Greene. He notes de Lima's poor cardio and jiu-jitsu but believes his power will get the job done early. He suggests live betting Greene if he survives the first round.

de Lima by TKO +120, fight won't start round 2 -150

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked May 3, 2021 (5 days before fight)

Maurice Greene

The MMA Guru picks Maurice Greene over Marcos Rogério de Lima, expressing surprise that Greene is a nearly 2-to-1 underdog. He believes Greene's range management with oblique kicks and jabs will neutralize de Lima's counter-punching style. He predicts a unanimous decision win, possibly 30-27, and notes de Lima's only chance is a KO, which he doesn't see happening.

unanimous decision, 30-27

"i am 100 picking maurice green here ... i think people are really underrating him because he lost to greg hardy but greg hardy is not a bad heavyweight"

Big Brady Expert Confident picked Oct 28, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Greg Hardy

Big Brady favors Hardy's power and athleticism, noting Greene's poor striking defense and chin. He thinks Greene's kicks leave openings and that the smaller cage will lead to a knockout. He predicts a second-round KO.

"give me greg hardy to win by a second round knockout"

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Hesitant picked Oct 26, 2020 (5 days before fight)

Greg Hardy

Hardy has power and has shown improvement in his last few fights, but his cardio is questionable. Greene is mobile and can chip away from distance, but his cardio also fades. Hardy likely wins by KO in the second round, but the -310 line is too steep.

Hardy wins by KO in round 2

"I still like greg hardy here i think it's gonna come down to the power... final pick greg hardy via second round ko"

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Oct 25, 2020 (6 days before fight)

Greg Hardy

"i'm going to go with greg hardy getting it done by unanimous decision victory"

Big Brady Expert Confident picked Jun 24, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Maurice Greene

Big Brady picks Maurice Greene, citing the size advantage (height and reach) and better cardio. He thinks Villante's power won't translate up a weight class, and that Greene will likely knock him out in the first round. He compares it to OSP vs Ben Rothwell. He advises against parlaying Greene due to trust issues but thinks a straight bet is fine.

Greene by KO in round 1; line too wide to bet straight; wouldn't parlay

"I think Green is gonna have a pretty decent sized advantage... give me Greene by knockout."

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Jun 26, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Maurice Greene

Daniel Levi picks Maurice Greene, noting Greene's physical advantages (6'7", long reach) and improvement in using range. He mentions Greene's move to Jackson Wink for better training partners and elevation, while Villante is training in a garage with closed gyms. Levi thinks Villante is on the decline, with poor cardio and decision-making, and expects Greene to win by knockout or lopsided decision. He cautions that Villante has power early but Greene should weather it.

Greene wins by knockout or decision

He notes Villante's wrestling fundamentals and training with Weidman's team, predicting a takedown and rear-naked choke submission in the first or second round. He criticizes Greene's recent losses and questionable activity outside the cage, suggesting Greene might not even show up due to COVID-19 concerns.

Aleksei Oleinik

Daniel picks Aleksei Oleinik via rear-naked choke finish, but admits he's been going back and forth on this fight. He notes that Oleinik has 40+ submissions and is a total badass, while Greene has power and length but questionable grappling. He says someone is most likely getting finished.

He notes Greene's speed and footwork as advantages, but worries about Oleinik's jiu-jitsu and the possibility of both fighters gassing. He sees the fight as risky and is not planning to bet on it.

Sergei Pavlovich vs. Maurice Greene

Round 1
Back up to heavyweight, we get a "classic battle of Russia vs. the U.S.A." as Pavlovich (13-1, 1-1 UFC) collides with Greene (8-2, 3-0 UFC). Drawing the assignment for this 503-pound matchup is referee Herb Dean. Greene rushes out from his corner, and there is no touch of gloves as he throws two heavy leg kicks in rapid succession. Greene goes up top with a head kick, but Pavlovich blocks it in time, so Greene goes low with another kick. As Greene throws a naked kick, Pavlovich counters with a huge right hand over the top that staggers Greene. The American does this again, and again Pavlovich rings home a right hand that sends Greene crashing to the canvas. He does not appear to be hurt, as the punch may have been more impactful than damaging, as he gets right back up without any visible ill effects. Pavlovich sits on the counter, ready for Greene to throw those long kicks.
A serious left jab from Pavlovich snaps Greene's head back, and the Russian follows it up with a swarm of punches that do some damage. Although Greene survives, he is on wobbly legs, and Pavlovich pours it on with several more punches that make Greene topple over.
Dean stops the contest, and Greene immediately protests, and continues to do so loudly. His cries fall on deaf ears, as the fight is over and Pavlovich has recorded another knockout win -- the 11th in his 14 wins, and all in the opening round. He becomes the first fighter to finish the durable "Crochet Boss."

Chris Barnett

Big Brady picks Chris Barnett to win by decision, citing Barnett's cardio advantage over Gian Villante, who has notoriously poor stamina.

Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Dec 2, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Gian Villante

Big Brady hesitantly picks Gian Villante, calling it an ugly fight that should be a pick'em. He notes Villante had a better showing in his last fight against Maurice Greene, while Collier was knocked out quickly by Tom Aspinall. He says his pick might change after weigh-ins, depending on which fighter looks more motivated and in shape. He strongly advises against betting on this fight.

Do not bet; weigh-ins important; Villante by first-round knockout (tentative)

"I'll take Vallante hesitantly... would not bet this fight in a million years"

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Dec 2, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Gian Villante

Daniel picks Gian Villante, citing Jake Collier's massive weight gain (from 185 to 265 lbs) and lack of training. He notes that Villante at least dropped Maurice Greene in his last fight, while Collier has been inactive and likely out of shape. He says if Collier shows up lighter, he could be a live underdog, but based on current information, Villante should win via leg kicks or a finish. He also mentions that both fighters looked terrible in their last outings, but Villante is the better pick.

Will pay attention to weigh-in; if Collier loses 20-30 lbs, he might pick him.

He argues that Collier has better overall game, durability, and cardio than Villante, who is uncoachable and gasses easily. He expects Collier to win by late stoppage or decision, and will bet him at plus money, especially if it reaches +200.

Collier by late stoppage or decision; fight doesn't go to decision at -230; Collier's durability and cardio advantage.
