“PADDY WINS... I would go with the new kid that's going in there for the new opportunity, rather than the old kid that fought for the belt, disrespected it, threw it on the ground.”
– via The Ariel Helwani Show, picking Paddy Pimblett to defeat Justin Gaethje, citing Gaethje's past disrespect toward the BMF title.

“I know Makhachev is good on the feet and he’s good on the ground, and Jack Della Maddalena is a boxer. He might be stronger than Makhachev. I’m anxious to see, but the champion isn’t champion by accident. From what I’ve followed, the fight slightly favors Jack Della Maddalena, right?”
– via MMA Fighting, leaning toward Jack Della Maddalena in the UFC 322 main event

“I was going Islam Makhachev, because he is my brother, but I don't think it's as simple as I thought it was, and I'll definitely backtrack on that. There is something that does scare me about this fight Kamaru. There is something that Islam Makhachev said that made me think. 'If wrestling doesn't work,' this is what he said, this is not a good thing. 'If wrestling doesn't work, we're going to strike”

“Call me crazy, but I'm running with Jack on this one. I think the first two rounds are going to be super competitive, and we're gonna see how the fight is going to play out. I think Jack's takedown defense is going to be huge here. I think he's going to defend a bunch of takedowns, and he's going to get Islam tired. A lot of people keep saying that Islam doesn’t get tired, but in fights, you can see it. He just doesn't get as tired as the other guy.Maybe a third”
– round TKO, leaning toward Jack. I think Jack is gonna find Islam’s chin... When [Makhachev] gets hit sometimes, it looks like it gets to him -via his Youtube Channel, predicts the outcome of UFC 322 main event

“I think if Leon's smart, he'll go out here and do mixed martial arts, mix it up. Obviously, Leon's a striker, but I think he has really good takedowns, too. He took down [Kamaru] Usman, he took down Colby [Covington]. He's taken down a good amount of people, so I think if he's smart, he'll mix it up, not just go out there and try to strike the entire time with Prates, because if you do that, you're giving Prates the opportunity to finish you, and we've seen how good he is on the feet.Obviously, in the Ian Garry fight, Ian was able to take him down, and I think Leon can have the same path. I'm going to pick Leon, I do think he's going to win”

“I do think in a stand”
– up battle - Poirier hits hard, I've witnessed that - but there's no way he hits harder than JDM. I think Islam's gonna get tagged a couple times... I give JDM a slight favor on that one - via The Ariel Helwani Show, comparing the power of Dustin Poirier and Jack Della Maddalena (JDM)

“I'm picking Prates. I think he'll be able to use his length, he'll be able to use Leon going backwards, hurt him going backwards, and make him uncomfortable going backwards. So if I'm Prates, keep him on the fence, keep him going backwards, and I think you can win this fight.”

“I think he's going to absolutely starch Leon. I've been saying this for a long time. [Edwards] should be retired, and we might see that. I'm shocked he took the fight in the first place. He's been shouting and screaming about wanting to fight a striker for so long, and now he's got his opportunity, and I think he's going to absolutely punch round”
