MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Sep 18, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Damon Jackson

The host sees value in Damon Jackson as a short-notice replacement who has been training and is in shape, while Mirsad Bektić is on a losing streak and may be mentally down. He believes Jackson's jiu-jitsu and scrambling will give Bektić trouble, especially in later rounds where Bektić fades. He predicts a submission win for Jackson in the second or third round.

Damon Jackson wins by submission in round 2 or 3

"I'm going with damon jackson i'm going to take the upset here."

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Sep 11, 2020 (8 days before fight)

Mirsad Bektić

The host picks Mirsad Bektić over Damon Jackson (referred to as Eduardo Gagori, but clearly the opponent is Damon Jackson). He notes Bektić's close fight with Dan Ige and his experience against top competition, while Jackson's record is padded with lesser opponents. He predicts a second-round submission by rear-naked choke.

second round submission by rear naked choke

"I think that's going to get the job done second round submission by rear naked choke I'll say."

Daniel Levi Expert Hesitant picked Feb 7, 2020 (1 day before fight)

Mirsad Bektić

Daniel Levi picks Mirsad Bektić by split decision, but is hesitant due to Bektić's suspect chin. He acknowledges Dan Ige's power and momentum, but believes Bektić's physicality and wrestling will be the difference. He warns against betting heavily on Bektić.

"I'm gonna pick Bektić by split decision but well uh well we'll be tuning in uh very closely here on Saturday night"

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Feb 5, 2020 (3 days before fight)

Mirsad Bektić

The host picks Mirsad Bektić by decision, believing he is undervalued due to recency bias. He notes that Bektić has better grappling and athleticism than Dan Ige, and that Ige's wins have come against lower-level competition. He expects Bektić to outgrapple Ige and control the fight, and plans to bet 1.5-2 units on him.

Bektić by decision, bet size 1.5-2 units

"I like the value that were gonna be getting on Rashad back secure and he'll more than likely be a bet for me too - 1:29 I'm clinical currently for me I'm gonna see you know I still think people …"

MMA Lock of the Night

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Jan 31, 2020 (8 days before fight)

Dan Ige

The MMA Guru picks Dan Ige to win by TKO in the second round. He likes Ige's reach, range control, and recent win streak. He is concerned about Bektić's KO loss to Josh Emmett via jab, which makes it hard to back him. Ige is a monster and will get a big win.

TKO in the second round

"I picked denied to beat him he was 17 and one denied is a monster he's going to get a big win over mossad betting by TKO in the second round"

Angelo Bodetti Expert Confident picked Feb 13, 2022 (6 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Angelo loves Chas Skelly in this matchup, citing his technical striking, willingness to slug, and wide variety of takedowns with submission threats. He notes Striegl is a solid wrestler but never fully commits. He believes Skelly is well-prepared for a grappling match and will get it done.

"i love chad skelly in this matchup he's technically sound on his feet he's got a willingness to slug it out"

We Want Picks

Big Brady Expert Hesitant picked Feb 16, 2022 (3 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Big Brady picks Chas Skelly but is very hesitant due to multiple red flags: Skelly is 36, retiring, and hasn't fought in over two years. He notes Skelly could submit Striegl if he's not washed, but the ring rust and retirement fight narrative scare him. He predicts Skelly wins by late round submission.

DFS by the Numbers

Cody Saftic Expert Lean picked Feb 15, 2022 (4 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Cody leans toward Skelly but with very low confidence due to Skelly's three-year layoff and age (36). He notes that Skelly's wins have come against low-level competition and that his wrestling may have declined. Cody is unsure what version of Skelly will show up and suggests waiting for live betting or weigh-ins to get a better read.

"i have no idea i have no idea i think you might be able to hit a pass but i want your take on it"

Bookie Beatdown

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Feb 17, 2022 (2 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Levi picks Skelly to win by submission, citing his elite submission skills and experience. He notes that Striegl's record is padded and that Skelly, despite a dad bod, is too tough and experienced. Levi expects Skelly to take Striegl down and submit him, possibly after some early success from Striegl.

Half the Battle

MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Feb 17, 2022 (2 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Skelly has a cardio and scrambling advantage over Striegl, who fades in later rounds. The fight will be grapple-heavy with many reversals, and Skelly should dominate positionally. Striegl's cardio is atrocious when pushed, so Skelly by submission in round 3 is the play. The long layoff for both is a concern but Skelly's pace should be too much.

Skelly round 3 (+1000), Skelly inside distance, fight ends by submission (+130)

"skelly round three obviously sticks out to me a whole lot here that's currently sticking around that plus 1000 range"

MMA Lock of the Night

Paul Shaughnessy Expert Lean picked Feb 15, 2022 (4 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

Paul also leans toward Skelly but is very hesitant. He notes that Skelly's three-year layoff and private Instagram are red flags. Paul thinks the fight is likely a grappling match where Skelly has an edge, but he is not confident enough to bet it at -220. He suggests waiting for live betting.

"i'll lean towards chas but there is next to no confidence in that pick because i don't know what he's been up to"

Bookie Beatdown

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Feb 15, 2022 (4 days before fight)

Chas Skelly

The MMA Guru picks Chas Skelly to win by first-round submission (d'arce or anaconda choke). He questions Mark Striegl's level of competition, noting he fought a 35-23 opponent after going 10-0. He believes Skelly's grappling and nasty d'arce choke will catch Striegl when he shoots a bad takedown, similar to his last fight.

first round submission (d'arce choke or anaconda choke)

"i'm gonna go of chas skelly here over mark streagle ... i think he's gonna utilize that here against mark streagle so i'm going to call a first round dash choke or anaconda choke submission"
