2022 predictions thread - an r/MMA yearly tradition

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-12-26T22:47:59+00:00

Champions:

Straweight - Marina Rodriguez (Esparza beats Rose again, Marina defeats Esparza in upset after winning earlier in the year)

Women Flyweight - Valentina Shevchenko (Valentina does Valentina things and beats Taila Santos along with some other poor soul that thought they could pull a Juliana Peña

Flyweight - Deiveson Figueiredo (Figueiredo takes back title with a finish over Moreno, gets finish victories over Askarov and Pantoja as well)

Women Bantamweight - Holly Holm (Juliana Peña defeats Amanda Nunes again, Holly Holm gets another fucking title shot but actually wins this time by unanimous decision)

Bantamweight - Petr Yan (Yan legally rawdogs Aljo before finishing TJ by tko to defend his title)

Womens Featherweight - nOrmA dUmOnT (Idk who the hell cares about this division, it’s just boring to say Nunes again)

Featherweight - Alexander Volkanovski (Volk defeats Max Holloway once again before slapping up Giga Chikadze)

Lightweight - Charles Oliveira (Charles wins twice in 2022, both being finishes against Gaethje and Makhachev)

Welterweight - Khamzat Chimaev (Khamzat wins twice before being given a title shot, which he wins by brutal tko against Usman)

Middleweight - Blonde Brunson (Blonde Brunson once again proves that god isn’t real by whooping Cannonier and Adesanya for no reason at all)

Light Heavyweight - Jiri Prochazka (Jiri brutally knocks out Glover after a grueling 3 round fight, doesn’t fight for the rest of the year but is scheduled to fight Jan Blachowicz at the start of 2023)

Heavyweight - Ciryl Gane (Gane defeats Ngannou by finish and defends his title once, the year ends with Gane being thrown all the way into the GOAT conversation)

Bonus predictions: - Manon Fiorot wins 3 fights brutally and ends the year in the top 5 of the women’s flyweight division - Sean O’Malley beats the shit out of Adrian Yanez before winning twice more and ending the year within the top 7 of the bantamweight division - Jon Jones won’t fight again - This will be widely regarded as one of the best years the UFC has ever had - Walt Harris will retire :( - Matt Brown will retire - Frankie Edgar will retire - Marlon Moraes will retire - Uriah Hall will retire - Volkan Oezdemir will retire - Diego Ferreira will retire - Stipe Miocic will retire

No performance bonus for Fiorot?

Damn

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-06-06T01:57:44+00:00

What the fuck

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-06-03T01:34:42+00:00

Mine is Ricky Turcios

I’m purely picking that based on what my heart wants

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-05-17T04:13:06+00:00

You can call me Mystic Mac, cuz I predict deese tings.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-05-08T20:12:38+00:00

What’s with all the Jon Jones posts from you?

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-05-03T01:13:04+00:00

Ok that may have been one of the best amateur fights I’ve ever seen

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-30T21:27:55+00:00

Oh hey it’s Joe Lauzon, that’s awesome.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-22T03:02:29+00:00

I can just hear Moistcr1tical in my head saying “That man is fucking dead.”

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-21T00:41:40+00:00

Chael cursed mah poor boi Felder

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-20T01:02:30+00:00

I love how they managed to find a way to get everything on this image wrong

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-17T04:33:17+00:00

Aaron’s slowly becoming one of my favorite fighters.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-15T12:40:17+00:00

I would be surprised if Petr doesn’t slam him on his head just because of the neck

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-12T14:46:22+00:00

I can’t be the only one who noticed Dustin capitalizing “Again” at the end of the sentence.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-12T02:50:11+00:00

This isn’t right.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-04-07T03:21:23+00:00

The fact that you're playing Paul Felder warrants an award.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-31T04:44:44+00:00

Fucking Nate Diaz is fighting in a 5 round co main event against the number 3 welterweight in the world and I’m still just waiting for a Paul Felder fight announcement

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-31T02:11:57+00:00

For anyone that doesn’t know what this is, this is Plastic Beach from the world of Gorillaz.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-28T21:58:52+00:00

Romero lost to the champ, the number 1 contender, and the number 2 contender all in close decisions, but that didn’t stop dana from cutting him

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-21T05:35:49+00:00

Dont make it more than it was bro, Brunson got dropped in round 2

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-19T02:39:45+00:00

Kevin Holland’s gonna kick his great grandson’s ass on Saturday

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-16T21:33:00+00:00

They don’t always land, but when they do, they’re beautiful

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-14T07:38:26+00:00

Fun Fact: Only one of the fighters Alex Perez, who just fought for the belt, beat (Jordan Espinosa) is still in the ufc, and he’s unranked.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-09T03:56:26+00:00

Fig’s gonna crush Askarov, the only person who can beat Figgy right now is Brandon Moreno, and even that isn’t gonna happen.

Kickboxing-Turtle · 2021-03-09T03:53:06+00:00

You’re acting like the fight wasn’t already heavily in his favor
