00:01:10 – Long Xiao vs. Chang Ho Lee
Jacob’s Pick: Chang Ho Lee
Jacob is surprised to see Chang Ho Lee as an underdog in this matchup. He highlights Lee’s resilience and relentless wrestling, noting his ability to come back from adversity in previous fights. Jacob believes Lee’s technical grappling and non-stop pressure will secure him the win over Long Xiao.
00:03:03 – Magomed Gadzhiyasulov vs. Brendson Ribeiro
Jacob’s Pick: Magomed Gadzhiyasulov
Jacob acknowledges Gadzhiyasulov as the more technical fighter, with the ability to maintain range and mix in takedowns if necessary. However, Ribeiro’s aggressive style and power make him a live underdog. Still, Jacob picks Gadzhiyasulov for his superior footwork and technical striking, despite some question marks.
00:04:40 – Muin Gafurov vs. Kyung Ho Kang
Jacob’s Pick: Muin Gafurov
Jacob favors Gafurov due to his pressure and activity. He recognizes the potential danger in Kang’s jiujitsu but believes Gafurov’s wrestling and striking power will be too much for Kang to handle. Jacob expects Gafurov’s relentless pace to secure the win.
00:05:50 – Rinat Fakhretdinov vs. Nicolas Dalby
Jacob’s Pick: Rinat Fakhretdinov
Jacob sees Fakhretdinov’s wrestling and grappling as significant advantages over Dalby, who has struggled with takedowns. However, he warns against Fakhretdinov’s overconfidence and tendency to chase knockouts, which could give Dalby opportunities. Despite these concerns, Jacob picks Fakhretdinov to win.
00:08:08 – Nasrat Haqparast vs. Jared Gordon
Jacob’s Pick: Nasrat Haqparast
Jacob believes Haqparast is superior in striking and has solid takedown defense to keep the fight standing. He respects Gordon’s durability and cardio but sees Haqparast’s technical striking and power leading to a dominant performance. Jacob expects a 30-27 decision or a potential knockdown for Haqparast.
00:09:30 – Shara Magomedov vs. Joilton Lutterbach
Jacob’s Pick: Shara Magomedov
Jacob picks Magomedov for his relentless pressure and striking prowess. He acknowledges Lutterbach’s well-rounded skills but doubts his ability to handle Magomedov’s pace and power, expecting Magomedov to secure a finish in the later rounds.
00:11:58 – Johnny Walker vs. Volkan Oezdemir
Jacob’s Pick: Volkan Oezdemir
Jacob leans towards Oezdemir due to his durability and tight counter striking. Despite Walker’s unpredictability and size advantage, Jacob doubts Walker’s chin can withstand Oezdemir’s power, making Oezdemir his pick in this closely matched fight.
00:13:30 – Kelvin Gastelum vs. Daniel Rodriguez
Jacob’s Pick: Kelvin Gastelum
Jacob picks Gastelum for his wrestling and striking combination but warns against betting heavily on him due to his inconsistency and D-Rod’s solid boxing and jiujitsu. He believes Gastelum’s wrestling could tip the scales in his favor in a closely contested fight.
00:16:10 – Sergei Pavlovich vs. Alexander Volkov
Jacob’s Pick: Alexander Volkov
Jacob notes the friendship and training history between Pavlovich and Volkov, suggesting it might affect their fight. He leans towards Volkov for his ability to keep range and technical striking, predicting a possible decision win in a strategic battle.
00:19:25 – Robert Whittaker vs. Ikram Aliskerov
