Big Brady Expert Confident picked Sep 30, 2020 (4 days before fight)

Luigi Vendramini

Big Brady picks Luigi Vendramini to win by submission. He notes that Vendramini is a BJJ black belt with a 100% finish rate, while Ayari is low volume and not a finisher. He believes if Vendramini gets a takedown, he will submit Ayari, and that Ayari's only path is an ugly decision.

submission

"give me vander meaney to win by submission"

DFS by the Numbers

Daniel Levi Expert Lean picked Oct 2, 2020 (2 days before fight)

Luigi Vendramini

Daniel picks Vendramini, reasoning that his moment of success against Zaleski (taking his back and almost choking him out) was more impressive than Ayari's split decision loss to Stevie Ray. He admits it's not a confident pick because both have been inactive for two years, but he favors Vendramini's potential finishing ability.

if there's a finish, lean towards Vendramini

"i'm gonna pick luigi van germini but it's not a confident pick because i don't know what to expect from either guy"

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Hesitant picked Oct 1, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Jessin Ayari

The host notes a lack of tape on Luigi Vendramini, making it difficult to assess his takedown success. He favors Jessin Ayari's striking and range management, predicting a decision win, but admits low confidence due to insufficient data on Vendramini.

"I feel like we're going to see justin i already go out there and just pick luigi vendramini apart from the outside"

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Sep 28, 2020 (6 days before fight)

Jessin Ayari

The Guru picks Jessin Ayari as an upset, arguing that Ayari has faced much better competition than Vendramini, who has fought 'absolute cans'. He notes Ayari is only 28 and still has his career ahead, and that Vendramini's recent loss to Alessio Di Chirico on short notice is a concern. He predicts a unanimous decision win for Ayari.

Evens odds mentioned; prediction: decision unanimous

"i'm actually going to be going with jesse and ayari getting the upset here"
