Big Brady Expert Lean picked Oct 26, 2021 (4 days before fight)

Michał Oleksiejczuk

Big Brady picks the underdog Michał Oleksiejczuk to win a close decision. He is unimpressed with Gamzatov, noting he doesn't go for takedowns despite Oleksiejczuk's poor takedown defense. He thinks Oleksiejczuk will be more active and aggressive, and the fight will be close, possibly a split decision. He acknowledges Gamzatov has a clear path to victory if he wrestles, but doubts he will.

"I'm going to pick the dog here and mikhail olozaychuk to slightly edge it out."

DFS by the Numbers

Cody Saftic Expert Lean picked Oct 27, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Michał Oleksiejczuk

Cody leans towards Oleksiejczuk as a dog, citing Gamzatov's unimpressive record and poor cardio. He notes Gamzatov hasn't finished anyone in 6 years, has low output, and gasses. Oleksiejczuk is faster, sharper, and has good body work. He thinks Oleksiejczuk can pressure, tire Gamzatov, and take him down.

"i'll finally take the lean towards the dog and take that plus 120 on my kio"

Bookie Beatdown

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Oct 28, 2021 (2 days before fight)

Michał Oleksiejczuk

Daniel picks Michał Oleksiejczuk for the upset, citing his aggression and output. He notes Gamzatov is a low-output point fighter with unimpressive wins. Daniel believes Oleksiejczuk's forward pressure and body shots will be key. He acknowledges Oleksiejczuk's size disadvantage but thinks his volume and power will overcome it.

"give me michal oleg zaychuk for the upset here just by being the busier guy and landing the bigger blows"

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Lean picked Oct 28, 2021 (2 days before fight)

Michał Oleksiejczuk

Oleksiejczuk's constant forward pressure and volume should overwhelm Gamzatov, who prefers to counterstrike. Gamzatov doesn't grapple much, which he would need to slow Oleksiejczuk. Oleksiejczuk likely wins a decision by optically controlling the fight.

Oleksiejczuk by decision +285.

"I gotta favor the guy that's gonna be coming forward pretty much the entire time and in my opinion that's gonna be mihal oleg shayjuk."

MMA Lock of the Night

Paul Shaughnessy Expert picked Oct 27, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Paul has trust issues with Oleksiejczuk after his poor performance against Modestas Bukauskas. He doesn't commit to a pick, saying he's not sure if he'll get there. He acknowledges the value might be on the dog but doesn't make a clear selection.

"i have trust issues with mikey oh right now i'm not sure if i'm gonna get there"

Bookie Beatdown

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Oct 24, 2021 (6 days before fight)

Shamil Gamzatov

The MMA Guru picks Shamil Gamzatov over Michał Oleksiejczuk. He acknowledges that Gamzatov had a close fight with Clinton Dabbrow but considers Dabbrow underrated. He uses Ankalaev's similar close fight with Dabbrow as a placeholder, noting that Ankalaev went on to beat top competition. He thinks Oleksiejczuk is too one-dimensional, looking for the KO, and if he can't get it, he has no backup plan. He predicts Gamzatov will win by unanimous decision, possibly after surviving an early scare.

"i just feel like macau alex atrix a little bit too one-dimensional he looks for the ko blow if you can't really get the ko blow i don't really know what he does to try and get a win here"

Big Brady Expert Confident picked May 27, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Klidson Abreu

Big Brady picks Klidson Abreu to win by submission. He believes Hill is a much better striker, but his takedown defense and ground game are huge liabilities. He thinks Abreu will take Hill down and submit him, as Hill's ground game is very green. He notes that Hill struggled to get up from takedowns against Stoic and that Abreu is a better grappler than Stoic.

Abreu wins by submission

"I'm gonna go Clisson Abreu by submission"

DFS by the Numbers

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked May 29, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Jamahal Hill

Daniel picks Hill, citing his volume, striking, and high ceiling. He notes that Abreu often brawls and doesn't use his takedowns consistently, and that Hill's takedown defense will improve with experience. He expects Hill to win a decision or possibly get a finish if Abreu gasses.

"i'm going against the public here i'm going with jamal hill for the victory"

Half the Battle

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked May 23, 2020 (7 days before fight)
