Expert Picks (2)

Daniel Levi Expert Confident picked Aug 29, 2020 (fight day)

Alex Caceres

Daniel Levi picks Alex Caceres, calling him a gatekeeper who measures if a fighter belongs in the UFC. He believes Springer is not ready for this level, citing his loss to Chris Gruetzemacher and knockout loss to Julian Erosa. He expects Caceres to use his left hand and footwork to pick Springer apart, possibly getting a knockout.

"i'm gonna go with bruce leroy to make it three in a row in 2020."

Half the Battle

The MMA Guru Expert Confident picked Aug 23, 2020 (6 days before fight)

Alex Caceres

The host picks Alex Caceres as an underdog, citing that Giga Chikadze has been unimpressive in the UFC, with split decisions over Brandon Davis, Jamal Emmers, and Irwin Rivera. He believes Caceres is a step up in competition and can stuff Chikadze's takedowns. He expects Caceres to win a close split decision, using his kicks and experience.

split decision

"i'm going to pick alex caceres... i think caceres is going to get the job done by a close decision win two rounds to one i'll say split decision"
