Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Dec 8, 2021 (3 days before fight)

Ryan Hall

Big Brady picks Ryan Hall by submission in the second round, but he is not fully confident. He notes that Minner is a kill-or-be-killed fighter with poor submission defense (8 submission losses) and tends to gas out after the first round. Hall is a phenomenal grappler, but his striking is unorthodox and he looked bad in his last fight. Brady believes Minner will engage in grappling and eventually get caught in a submission as he tires. He recommends staying away from this fight due to its unpredictability.

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Dec 9, 2021 (2 days before fight)

Ryan Hall

Daniel Levi picks Ryan Hall to win by submission, specifically a leg lock. He notes that Darrick Minner is a submission specialist himself but tends to get submitted when he grapples with elite jiu-jitsu practitioners. Levi believes Minner will try to grapple with Hall, which plays into Hall's strength. He also mentions that if the fight stays standing, Hall's unorthodox spin kicks could be effective. Levi is confident Hall will find a submission.

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Hesitant picked Dec 10, 2021 (1 day before fight)

Darrick Minner

This is a volatile fight. Minner has discipline issues and a questionable gas tank, but if he stays disciplined and counters Hall's unorthodox striking, he can win a decision. Hall's BJJ is a threat, but if he can't get the fight to the ground, he struggles. Minner's path is to avoid submissions and grind out a win, but confidence is low.

"i am ultimately going to go on the derek winner side and say that he stays away from all the unorthodox [ __ ] that reinhard brings to the table here and he goes on to win a very ugly …"

Ryan Hall vs. Ilia Topuria

Round 1
The next matchup is a highly anticipated featherweight tilt between the returning grappling wizard Hall (8-1, 4-0 UFC) against the unbeaten Spaniard Topuria (10-0, 2-0 UFC). Something’s gotta give between these two, with Hall’s last loss coming in 2006 while Topuria has yet to taste defeat. Referee Jason Herzog will be taking charge to make sure everything is above board, and a half-hearted glove touch is what we get to start the fight. Hall meets him in the center of the cage and backs away, circling around the cage while Topuria stalks him down. Hall lands the first strike, a kick to the body, and Topuria just looks at him. Hall pump-fakes a possible takedown to get a reaction out of the Spaniard, and he hits him with a spinning hook kick. Hall rolls for an Imanari roll to pursue a leg, and Topuria does not bite, kicks his outstretched leg a few times and lets him stand back up. Hall whiffs on a left hand, and another as he rolls for some sort of a tackle to grab Topuria’s leg. Once more, Topuria shrugs it off and lets Hall somersault around to miss. Hall’s fourth roll manages to snare Topuria, and he grabs Topuria’s glove to hold on to him but cannot keep him grounded. Hall rolls through and elbows Topuria in the side of the head, and Topuria takes his back and lands a few punches before breaking free. Hall walks into a few punches, and Topuria gets confident as he cracks Hall with a right hand. Hall flops to roll and take him down, and he lets Topuria wade into his guard but Topuria springs out of the way. Hall ducks a punch with his hands down, and he boots Topuria in the body twice. “The Wizard” rolls through a few more times, and Topuria never bites so the crowd begins to turn on him. The Spaniard stings him with a right hand, and Hall ducks down to roll and grab a heel but cannot get it. Hall continues to roll around and pop back up as if he were in a gymnastics class, and Topuria walks into a right hand but darts out of the way from yet another Hall roll. Hall connects with a spinning heel kick, and he dodges and weaves from any Topuria aggression. When Hall attempts another heel kick, Topuria closes the distance to bully Hall to the ground.
“El Matador” dives after him and stuns him with hammerfists, and his right hand starts to do damage as he continues to club Hall on the chin again and again. As Hall turns to his side, he has no where else to go and is trapped, and Topuria keeps smashing him in the face. The damage mounts until Hall is relieved of his consciousness, and Herzog steps in to stop the fight.
This is a huge win for the undefeated Topuria, who may have just earned a spot on the rankings with a smart performance.

Ilia Topuria

Daniel Levi picks Ilia Topuria to win. He respects Ryan Hall's unique leglock game and spin kicks, but believes Topuria's confidence, youth, and well-rounded skills will neutralize Hall. He notes that Topuria has knockout power, good grappling, and heart, as shown when he got dropped and came back to win. He worries that Topuria's overconfidence could lead him to engage on the mat, but thinks he has the goods to win. He finds the plus 200 on Hall tempting but sticks with Topuria.

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

Ilia Topuria

I'm going with Topuria by KO. He is a young, hot prospect with great grappling and striking. Hall is wild and unorthodox, but Topuria's striking is much better. Topuria can also grapple with Hall if needed. I think Topuria will land a knockout after accumulating damage, probably in the second or third round. I like Topuria inside the distance and by KO.

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

Ilia Topuria

The Guru predicts Topuria will win by first-round KO. He expects Hall to dive for leg locks and use imanari rolls, but Topuria will escape and kick Hall's leg while Hall is on his back. Hall will get back up and throw wheel kicks, but each time Topuria will close the distance and smother him. Topuria will work the body throughout, causing Hall to hunch over. Then Topuria will land a lead left hook to the body followed by a right hand over the top to knock Hall out.

Topuria wins by KO in round 1

Artem Lobov vs. Andre Fili

Round 1
The featherweights trade low kicks before Lobov swings over the top and cracks Fili with a left hand, then a right. Fili circles to the right and walks into the power hand of the southpaw Lobov, who is working from the center of the cage in his upright stance. Fili is sticking some jabs of his own, using his long right arm to get inside and redden the nose of Lobov. Two minute in, Fili continues to cut angles and circle away from Lobov, who is having more difficulty finding the Team Alpha Male product. Another good jab snaps back the head of Lobov, who's cut around the outside of his left eye now. Fili tacks on a few leg kicks, smacks Lobov on the side of the head with a nice right hand. Lobov begins marching straight at Fili with arms hanging by his waist. Fili isn't taking the bait and continues to backpedal away. Inside the final 20 seconds, a massive head kick floors Lobov, who somehow recovers and powers back to his feet even as Fili tries to polish him off with punches.

Round 2
Lobov looks to have recovered from his late knockdown in round one, as he comes marching straight at Fili in the second stanza. Fili is still sticking to his game plan, circling off his back foot and picking at Lobov with leg kicks and jabs from distance. Lobov catches a body kick but can't trip Fili to the ground. Fili tries a double-leg but gets stood up by Lobov, who just keeps plodding forward, loading up and trying to knock off Fili's head with left hands. Lobov lands one over the top, but Fili just keeps moving. Fili's second shot of the round yields an easy takedown with 1:15 left on the clock. Referee Marc Goddard pauses the action and sends Lobov's unofficial cornerman, Conor McGregor, back to his seat. When action resumes, Lobov explodes back to his feet and holds Fili against the cage with double underhooks. Fili breaks out and backs away just before the horn, and Lobov taunts him with arms raised.

Round 3
Lobov kicks at the lead leg of Fili, who sniffs out the next low kick from the SBG Ireland fighter and converts it to another easy takedown. Fili passes to half guard on Lobov's right side, briefly considers an arm-triangle setup, then bails out when Lobov attacks his legs for an ankle lock. Lobov climbs back to his feet, only to be taken down again seconds later, this time planted on his back in the center of the cage with 3:00 remaining. Fili looks for the arm-triangle choke again, abandons it, then has to stand when Lobov grabs for his legs again. Another takedown goes for Fili, now with two minutes left in the bout. Lobov escapes to his feet 40 seconds later... and is taken down again. Fili is still looking for the arm-triangle but doesn't seem to be feeling any urgency with 30 seconds left. Fili stands up at the 10-second clapper and kicks at Lobov's legs, and that's where time runs out.
