Angelo Bodetti Expert Confident picked Mar 16, 2025 (6 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

Angelo picks Nathan Fletcher, expressing strong dislike for Caolán Loughran's fighting style and personality. He criticizes Loughran for being non-committal, low volume, and failing to use his skills. Fletcher is described as a pressure fighter with good cardio and a never-quit attitude. Angelo expects the fight to go to decision due to Loughran's hesitance.

"Fletcher is going to be the pick he's got dog in him he's got cardio he's not going to quit Nathan Fletcher's the pick"
BI
Big Brady Expert Confident picked Mar 18, 2025 (4 days before fight)
Caolán Loughran

Brady thinks Loughran has a striking advantage and can take down Fletcher, despite Loughran's poor performance against Jake Hadley. He notes Fletcher gets reversed often and was controlled by Conor O'Malley. Brady expects a competitive fight but picks Loughran to win by decision.

Loughran by decision
"I think there's some reasons to like lochran here so I'll take lochran to win this fight I'll take it to win by decision"
MM
MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Mar 20, 2025 (2 days before fight)
Caolán Loughran

The host notes that Loughran has improved tremendously since their amateur fight six years ago, and his strength and physicality will shut down Fletcher's grappling. He expects Loughran to keep Fletcher on the defensive and grind out a win.

"I think Lochan has made a tremendous improvement since that time. And I believe his strength and physicality will allow him to shut down the grappling game of Fletcher."
TH
The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Mar 19, 2025 (3 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

The Guru is confident in Nathan Fletcher, praising his fluidity, head movement, and grappling compared to Loughran's stiffness. He describes Loughran as a 'Marvin Vettori of bantamweight'—tough but non-fluid and hittable. He believes Fletcher's better defense, reach advantage, and dynamic scrambles will be decisive. He expects Fletcher to win, possibly by decision or submission.

"I'm going with Nathan Fletcher getting this one done over Callin lockran"

Nathan Fletcher

Angelo picks Nathan Fletcher because he is a well-rounded fighter with solid grappling and striking, and he believes Nathan can land cleaner strikes and take the fight to the ground if needed. He notes that Žygimantas is chinny and hitable, and can be taken down due to his aggressive style. However, he is not betting on this fight due to medical issues and uncertainty.

"Nathan is going to be the pick this should be a really fun fight"
BI
Big Brady Expert Confident picked Sep 5, 2024 (2 days before fight)
Žygimantas Ramaška

Big Brady picks Žygimantas Ramaška to win by third-round knockout. He notes that Ramaška is a striker with knockout power, while Fletcher is a grappler who will look for takedowns. Brady believes Ramaška has more paths to victory, including the knockout threat and doing more damage overall, and that Fletcher has been knocked out before. He acknowledges Fletcher's path via takedowns and top control but favors Ramaška's striking and power.

"I'm going to take zamonas for mosca to win this fight I'll say he wins it by third round knockout"

Cody Saftic Expert Lean picked Sep 4, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

Cody picks Fletcher, citing his wrestling advantage and Ramaška's vulnerability to grapplers. He notes Fletcher's cardio is a concern but believes he can get takedowns and control the fight. He is not highly confident but sees value.

"I got to take the guy that I like based on this style Clash"

Daniel Vreeland Expert Lean picked Sep 5, 2024 (2 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

Daniel admits he couldn't watch their Ultimate Fighter fights due to playback errors, so his analysis is limited. He heard Ramaška is exciting but leaves openings, while Fletcher is more cautious. He picks Fletcher again (as he did when the fight was first booked), but warns not to trust his pick.

"I picked Fletcher the first time I'll pick him again but this one I wouldn't listen to a word I say."
MM
MMA Lock of the Night Expert Confident picked Sep 4, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

Fletcher's grappling is expected to be too much for Ramaška, who has questionable takedown defense. Fletcher trains with Paddy Pimblett and has a strong BJJ game, likely securing a submission within a round and a half. However, there is some hesitation due to Fletcher's recent illness, so the bet size is reduced compared to the original play.

Fletcher by submission within 1.5 rounds
"I believe Fletcher's grappling will end up being too much here for rasa and I actually had Fletcher as a locker that I play... I'm still going to pick him to win... I do think we'll see him eventually get …"
PA
Paul Shaughnessy Expert Lean picked Sep 4, 2024 (3 days before fight)
Nathan Fletcher

Paul picks Fletcher, believing his wrestling and grappling can neutralize Ramaška's striking. He notes Ramaška's losses come against wrestlers, and Fletcher has a path via takedowns and control. He is hesitant due to Fletcher's recent illness and cardio concerns.

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Sep 3, 2024 (4 days before fight)
Žygimantas Ramaška

The MMA Guru picks Žygimantas Ramaška over Nathan Fletcher. He notes that Fletcher is a bantamweight moving up to featherweight, which he dislikes because Fletcher will be the smaller man. He believes Ramaška's length and range will keep Fletcher at bay, similar to how Dominick Wooding handled him. He predicts a late-round TKO or decision for Ramaška.

"I'm GNA go against Nathan Fletcher... I'm going to go Zig Manas rasa Nathan Fletcher just is a bantam way... I'm going to go over raasa here getting this one done by maybe late rounds TKO or a decision"
