That fight is gonna be crazy till Reb gets a takedown, probably be over quick.
Joel is just another freak hype job but never got traction and has too many holes.

Lipski has never been submitted before but I think that's going to change in this fight, which kinda sucks. I really liked how she changed things up in her training, made actual improvements and then went in a win streak.

That being said karine Silva fully deserves her "Killer" nickname and I don't see Lipski managing to keep the fight standing.

Yeah I think it's a repeat of Alvarez/Tsarukyan 9 out of 10 times. Rebecki is fortunate to have this opponent in the Apex's smaller cage

I Still can’t believe Arman was only a -250 favourite against Joel Alverez, he should of been -1000, Arman is one of the best wrestler in the division and Joel has no wresling, Joel being the same betting line as Gamrot and more people picking Joel against the same opponent don’t make sense

Hope I get  dog odds to fade Joel Alverez because people believe sub off bottom work against good grappler

Not saying Rebecki can't win this fight, because he definitely can. However, the opponent shuffling here is a little interesting with the UFC rumored to be going to Spain soon. Isn't Alvarez one of the only Spanish fighters on the roster? Daniel Barez the only other one I can think of. UFC could be trying to set Alvarez up here with a win heading into that card. 

I think Klein was probably a slightly tougher fight for Alvarez so the UFC decided to pivot and put him in a better position to get a win against a good opponent. Alvarez went from having a 4.5 inch advantage to an 11 inch reach advantage. I'm seeing glimmers of him finishing Moises on the feet. That's probably not a great performance to go by since Alvarez missed weight for that fight, but this dude is crazy dangerous. Rebecki has looked really good so far in the UFC but not sure that mean's he can ragdoll Alvarez the way Tsarukyan did.

@DamienHandel420 
I agree. Also Rebecki will probably not make defensive submission mistakes like Marc did.

Moises doesn't wrestle nearly as good as Rebecki or Marc, all you have to do it wrestle Joel and stay clear of full guard to be safe. Joel is a good long striker, but his weakness is too exploitable

I wonder if 4 fights being scheduled at LW already is a foreshadowing of what the main event might be for this card.

Jonathan "get up and do somethin about it boy" Pearce. 🤣

Being serious, he should have this one easy. Just don't let him get up or you might find out again.

Not bad for a Fight Night. JSP/Onama, Rebecki/Alvarez, Means/Medic, and Maheshate/Benitez are all really fun fights.
