UFC Houston: Strickland vs Hernandez Predictions

Ep. 409

The UFC heads down to Houston for a top contender fight at middleweight and a notable Heavyweight Fight (but given recently roster moves I'm stuck asking if that matters) and a few good action fights.


The card is missing impact for a travel card but there isn't a bad fight on the card, though some annoying ones because you know me, I do get a migraine watching bad fight IQ.


Let's break em down.

  • 408. UFC Vegas 113: Bautista vs Olivera Aftermath

    35:53||Ep. 408
    Another Apex show is in the back window and honestly the aftermath is a bit more interesting than the card. The card was fun mind you, good action, some insightful fights but also some frustration. I don't cover the roster moves in the audio but Jailton Almedia and Javid Basharat seemed to no longer be on the UFC roster. Javid is particularly a weird cut.Also I do mess up saying Yan when I mean Joshua Van. Yes I am aware they are different fighters and yes I can tell them apart.Anyways let us breakdown the fights.And the Usual Links: My Discord: https://discord.gg/hzc4NMyjRf My Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meodread Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/MeoOnMMA And my Full Link Tree Here: https://linktr.ee/meodread
  • 407. UFC Vegas 113: Bautista vs Olivera Predictions

    40:57||Ep. 407
    The First Apex Excursion is upon us and the UFC has by Apex standards a really sold card. I do question the wisdom of using the Apex as the sight for their 3rd paramount card but we'll see.Good main event with high action upside, some confusing booking for Kyoji Horiguchi and Rizvan Kuniev and there are a pair of dead fights in my opinion. But Mostly solid matchmaking.Let's break em down.And the Usual Links: My Discord: https://discord.gg/hzc4NMyjRf My Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meodread Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/MeoOnMMA And my Full Link Tree Here: https://linktr.ee/meodread
  • 406. UFC 325 Recap

    34:36||Ep. 406
    A subdued recap today as UFC 325 while not bad lacked the spice that gets me jazzed. Probably because the main event was something I called from a mile away. However, Hooker/BSD was a lot of fun, Ruffy KOing Fiziev was cool and there was good action throughout the card with only 2 fights I have no real interest in watching again.Let's unpack the action.And the Usual Links: My Discord: https://discord.gg/hzc4NMyjRf My Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meodread Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/MeoOnMMA And my Full Link Tree Here: https://linktr.ee/meodread

    2026 Kicked off with a great fight though I do question how much of a main event worthy matchup it was. The classic fights can be very good while not feeling like they are top notch.And we head into a rematch I am struggling to find my excitement for.Let's unpack the fights and break it down.And the Usual Links: My Discord: https://discord.gg/hzc4NMyjRf My Twitter: https://twitter.com/Meodread Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/MeoOnMMA And my Full Link Tree Here: https://linktr.ee/meodread

  • 403. UFC 323: Dvalishvili vs. Yan 2 Recap and UFC Vegas 112: Royval vs Kape Predictions

    44:48||Ep. 403
    UFC 323 crowned 2 new champions, 1 in outstanding and shocking fashion while the other was more Vitor Belfort at 205 style where the fight ended in fluke injury but hey a win is a win and it freshens up a division that was largely clear out (including this weekend's main event).We also have the final show of the year from the UFC from the Apex which seriously is bad scheduling but it's not a bad card, relevant and well timed main event, couple of action fights and some interesting rankings impacting fights.Let's break it down.

  • 402. UFC 323: Dvalishvili vs. Yan 2 Predictions

    32:35||Ep. 402
    Bit of lackluster main event and I did call Joshua Van "Yan"...ooops but this card has some high points. The only issue I have is there are a lot of "I don't want to pick this fighter because of X" fights where it's picking by nullification rather than positive thoughts.Let's break it down.
