Weasel …… You are an MMA genius with your fight analysis. I could see you at a broadcasting desk with the UFC, they should pick you up. This is my prediction. - Jason/Freedom Fighter Until Death/Vermont, FRA (‘FRA’, meaning “The Failed Republic Of America”)
Costa could have been so much more. The Izzy loss totally messed him up. He's a pretty funny guy but I honestly think Strickland has SO much more grit as a fighter, and it won't be close. Sean is just so much tougher. Costa is not there for the fighting itself, Sean is. Sean by TKO R4.
what worries me is that Islam welcomes the clinch a lot where Dustin can do good boxing, if he is slippery enough, and I think Dustin can pull if off like that. But I do pick Islam to win. Can I get your thought on it Weasle?
hey Weasle, i rewatched all of dustins fight and he has a devastaing calf kick vs south paws. it was apparent in the mc gregor fight obv but just rewatched the michael chandler fight as well; every time mike went south paw he kept on hammering the leg kick. Islam cannot take too many of them and he will try to secure a take down from the leg kick ( this might be similar to the khabib vs justin G fight in my opinion) especially if DP can survive the take down he might TKO Islam

You’d think MMA fans would have learned by now to stop saying things like “X fighter doesn’t have a chance” How many more upsets do you need to see? This is MMA where literally ANYTHING could happen. We’ve seen more upsets in the past 18 months than the amount of times Chandler has accepted the fight with Conor
Why the f*ck is Paulo Costa, after losing 3 of his last 4 fights, being matched up against the #1 fighter in the division? Why are they still rolling out the red carpet for this goofball? There are countless well-deserving fighters who have clearly earned their shot against high ranked opponents by winning several fights in a row, yet continue to be slept on and/or left in the dust... meanwhile, Costa is out here being rewarded for losing. Shit makes no sense.
Bc his fights are entertaining, bloody and even though he always loses the decision, the fights go the distance and both dudes look like they were actually in a fight lol
@@forwardmoving8252but he’s right. Dana rewards fighters who lose spectacularly over fighters that win boring fights or are winning easily and don’t go for the finish. He loses it on those guys in the press conferences. Edit: and you know making $$ matters more than putting on properly ranked fights.
MMA isn’t a “sport” in the traditional sense. It’s prize fighting. There is no strict competitive architecture the way most sports have it set up Whoever brings the most excitement / makes the most money / takes the righ opportunities / is in good favour of the promotion, get the better placements generally
Paulo Costa is usually exciting to watch and takes plenty of risks with his fight style.He’s like the third most popular Brazilian fighter besides Alex Pereira and Charles Oliveira
@@TheWeasleMMA its just coz it makes it easier to compare picks amongst all the youtubers. btw i did my pick video the other day, im picking almeida and matthews but apart from that we got the same picks
Distance boxing and being on his backfoot is how Strickland lost to Cannonier and Dricus. That's not a good suggestion. Pressuring Costa is his key to victory. Giving Costa range to throw kicks isn't smart. Strickland win by decision jab, 1,2 jab, 1,2
Interesting fact that I didn’t know until I saw a clip of both of them signing posters…..BOTH Islam and Dustin write righty but fight lefty. Which means both have dominance on their weak side.
Imagine ..Facing Both Dagestan Hugging after being Defeate twice for The LW BELT by The Dagestan Clan Again.. TWICE SAD include His Daughter wil seat in front row to Witnes his Daddy BEATUP again 3 time...for the Belt...🤦😭😭😭💯
i see what you are saying regarding islam smirking a bit when talking about dustin. But have you seen his training camp? He's literally training with world champions/exchampions plus there is always that wise eye of Coach Jav in the background. I don't think he will go in their without his head level, no way. His actions seem to show he's taking this very seriously, although he would do this with any fight not specifically for porrier.
@@DevinBurkett55 none of his camp were champions at the time and he was younger and way less experienced. And his English sucked so all his coaching was watered down in translation. So that comparison is pretty irrelevant in my opinion.

Dustin has never lost a fight in June. The Paulo costa curse of champions losing their belt when they fight on the same card. His LAST title shot. DUSTIN BY WHATEVER HE WANTS!!!!!
Completely different experience in person!! Enjoy it. They'll do intermission between the prelims and main card so if you wanna get snacks and shit then you won't miss anything. It's a blast in person.
Gonna watch the video because the weasel has some of the best breakdown videos, but it’s kind of annoying when it’s so predictable that everyone is picking Islam by 3rd round sub or 2nd round sub. It’s just so obvious that it will happen almost no point in watching the fight 😂
Is anybody else shocked anytime Alex Morono beats anyone? Something about the guy- I know you can’t judge a book by its covered but, he just does not look like a threat whatsoever.
WEZZY , ISLAM DA LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION OF DA WORLD 🌎 GETS UP SET BY DA DIAMOND DUSTIN . WEZZY AN NEW LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION OF DA WORLD DUSTIN DA DIAMOND 🌎💎👌 .
I wouldn't dismiss Dustin, O'malley vs Sterling looked very bad for O'malley, but it worked out. This is harder, but still. But I think Dustin has 1 trick: he fought Khabib. Islam's style is less new to him, and he's had some more practice. I think Dustin's chances are like 40:60. Bad, but not as bad.
This is a nontrue platitude as it does not actually mean anything. Dustin was always dangerous. Islam had EVERYHTHING to lose by accepting a short notice defense against a FW and he look what happened. He flatlined the fw goat in one round
@6tiple6ix6afia LMAO thats one of the most ridiculous takes ... Islam had everything to lose? by fighting a much smaller man who no camp who came in fat and out of shape, meanwhile Islam was in peak form preparing for the #1 lightweight in the world? Make sure you zip his pants back up
He really did. Taking short notice fights are a double edged sword because you're facing off your style against another without prior preparation and if you've been practicing different moves for your opponent you could do it and get countered because it's vulnerable against this new fighter. Nothing to lose indeed
As far as mental game in Islam vs Dustin How many times has Dustin been to this point to fall short? How will that effect his mental game? Hes got one foot out the door. That being said, as much as I doubt he will win, I want to see Dustin hold that belt before he calls it a career so I'm rooting for him. Dont be silly jump the guilli!!!!
Dustin will get so uncomfortable in his shorts that he just pulls them up in the 2nd round and catches Islam with an surprise uppercut looking down at Dustins hands! So I have Dustin by wardrobe malfunction in round 2.
When dustin is scared of takedowns hes completely different posture. Once he finds his groove and starts piecing up, he gets takin down. Not much dusty can do here unfortunately
The only way i see Islam losing is if he gets in close quarters in the striking with Dustin. Islam has a good IQ so he will surely not get in close quarters with Dustin. Islam has a huge arsenal of weapons. Grappling, Submission, Strong Kicks, Decent boxing, Good defence against strikes, Good Thai clinch. Dustin on the other hand has good leg kicks and a great hook combined with combos. Ground game is good but not good enough for Islam. It will be an Islam win 100 %
Wait let me get this str8?? You think Sean Strickland deserves a rematch more then izzy⁉️... What are you smoking? Izzy has accomplished 10x more then Sean has and dare I say ever will...🤣
Khabib tried to stand and trade with Poirier for a whole round, but remembered he was a grappler when he got caught clean. I suspect the same thing to happen tonight. Dustin is the best boxer in MMA, even if you give Holloway credit you have to recognize that Dustin became a counter puncher to nullify his “advantage” whereas the fight before against Gaethje he was a combo boxer who hit Gaethje 200+ in the head.
This isn't Islam's most dangerous challenger, however.. Anyone claiming that Dustin has "no chance" are extremely unintelligent. They just don't know what they are talking about. Anyone in title contention could pull off a win, that's just the sport we love. It is highly likely that Islam will make this look easy though.
I justtt started finally betting on ufc, 4th event now and i won an 8 leg parlay on this one. Anyways, idk how i completely forgot about weasle!! I been watchin other stupid picks/bets channels.. smh
If Dustin beats Islam, he doesn’t avenge his loss against Khabib..I’ll say something crazy now, beating one dagestani doesn’t mean beating all dagestanis, beating Justin Gaethje doesn’t mean you beat Dustin Poirier, they’re 2 separate people..same as Islam and Khabib..
All that giggling and laughing about his next opponent may end up coming back to bite islam. I can see a scenario (albeit not a likely one) where Dustin knocks islam tf out and he comes to not knowing where he is or what happened, stands up trying to shoot or swing on whoever and khabib is just saying" brother it over, you got knocked out". While Islam stands there in basic disbelief until he sees the replay. I know he's very confident as he well should be, but if anyof the Dagestan from khabibs camp is getting a little cocky it may be him
Come on weasel..disappointed with you man..Islam never underestimate his opponent ever after his lost to Martin..he said he respects Dustin skills but not really sure bout the gilly..so he's gonna test both Dustin's black belt and the gilly this Saturday 👊💯👑
For your prediction videos you should quickly go over your picks from the previous UFC event. Just a quick summary so we can be reminded of what picks you got correct for incorrect. Anyone else agree?
Its risky but I think Dustin should put him in a tai clinch at the right moment throw up a knee and immediately throw the right hook and connect it right where islam got kod last time. He'd be a little of guard because of the knee or knee attempt and Dustin stands southpaw but is right hand dominant so islam probably won't see it coming. And your right no matter how Dustin wins if he wins I'm immediately blasting the pledge of Allegiance followed by some Louisiana blues 😂 its going down
I love your analysis and breakdown for fights but your analysis for the main fight has nothing tactical whatsoever. Even while analysing youre biased towards your favourite fighter.
Kevin Holland better win some. He talk so much but his skills are average at best. long reach, good chin, good cardio, power in his hands etc. he got everything but ......
Islam has beaten 1 top 5er in his division and hasn’t defended against a single lightweight and arguably lost against a FW. Not sure how people think Dustin has no chance.
So khabib the opponents couldnt handle him his pressure was immense, where as islam is not same as khabib he still pressure, his footwork is better and i mean khabib walk through shots and kicks imagine, where islam is calculated. I dont know got a feeling islam going to ko diamond i might be wrong, but diamond working on anti wrestling and his focus will be on that and he might loose focus and get caught.
Man really said Volk when referring to a striker with a plethora of weapons knowing damn well Volks striking consists of a jab, overhand and an inside leg kick mixed in with feints 😂
It will be quite sad possibly seeing Makachev out striking and rocking Poirier,Makachev is far more well rounded than Poirier ever will be. I really want what I said here age like milk,man i will be so happy if Poirier pulls a hail Mary and wins the belt

If Dustin beats Islam, he doesn’t avenge his loss against Khabib..I’ll say something crazy now, beating one dagestani doesn’t mean beating all dagestanis, beating Justin Gaethje doesn’t mean you beat Dustin Poirier, they’re 2 separate people..same as Islam and Khabib..
All that giggling and laughing about his next opponent may end up coming back to bite islam. I can see a scenario (albeit not a likely one) where Dustin knocks islam tf out and he comes to not knowing where he is or what happened, stands up trying to shoot or swing on whoever and khabib is just saying" brother it over, you got knocked out". While Islam stands there in basic disbelief until he sees the replay. I know he's very confident as he well should be, but if anyof the Dagestan from khabibs camp is getting a little cocky it may be him
Come on weasel..disappointed with you man..Islam never underestimate his opponent ever after his lost to Martin..he said he respects Dustin skills but not really sure bout the gilly..so he's gonna test both Dustin's black belt and the gilly this Saturday 👊💯👑
Islam finish him in the 1st round insha allah ☝️
Jesus Christ is Lord.
He is the beginning and end.
The only way to true Salvation.
We are about to witness a “rocky” moment come this Saturday.

For your prediction videos you should quickly go over your picks from the previous UFC event. Just a quick summary so we can be reminded of what picks you got correct for incorrect. Anyone else agree?

I think your criticism is irrelevant dude. If you ain't got nothing good to say rather say nothing at all.
famine upon your crops
Its risky but I think Dustin should put him in a tai clinch at the right moment throw up a knee and immediately throw the right hook and connect it right where islam got kod last time. He'd be a little of guard because of the knee or knee attempt and Dustin stands southpaw but is right hand dominant so islam probably won't see it coming. And your right no matter how Dustin wins if he wins I'm immediately blasting the pledge of Allegiance followed by some Louisiana blues 😂 its going down
Did this guy just say it feels like ufc 300 was yesterday? bro it's been a desert of MMA because of that damn event for the past few months LMAO
I love your analysis and breakdown for fights but your analysis for the main fight has nothing tactical whatsoever. Even while analysing youre biased towards your favourite fighter.
Kevin Holland better win some. He talk so much but his skills are average at best. long reach, good chin, good cardio, power in his hands etc. he got everything but ......
Islam has beaten 1 top 5er in his division and hasn’t defended against a single lightweight and arguably lost against a FW. Not sure how people think Dustin has no chance.
So khabib the opponents couldnt handle him his pressure was immense, where as islam is not same as khabib he still pressure, his footwork is better and i mean khabib walk through shots and kicks imagine, where islam is calculated.
I dont know got a feeling islam going to ko diamond i might be wrong, but diamond working on anti wrestling and his focus will be on that and he might loose focus and get caught.
29:32 I never thought about this. Islam is in danger of losing his " who give him" meme.1% chance but it's not 0%.. What a timeline that would be.
"a lot of people expecting very high things out of islam." i gotta say sometimes i'm really left scratching my head over weasle's word choice.
Man really said Volk when referring to a striker with a plethora of weapons knowing damn well Volks striking consists of a jab, overhand and an inside leg kick mixed in with feints 😂
If Islam get Submitted by Guilly
You HAVE to say Dustin Poirier has the Best Guillotine of All Time
If I could pick the winner, Dustin 100% but I think Islam gets him in a gilly 1st or 2nd round
Poirier will submit Makhachev.
If he can get it past round 4 he has a huge chance but he has to stop the leg hugging and keep it standing
Wait, so Paulo doesn't deserve Strickland but Chimaev deserves Whittaker? GTFOH
It will be quite sad possibly seeing Makachev out striking and rocking Poirier,Makachev is far more well rounded than Poirier ever will be. I really want what I said here age like milk,man i will be so happy if Poirier pulls a hail Mary and wins the belt
Islam finishes dustin via guillotine.
You'll be happy if he wins because you're a biased loser
No shot Islam out strikes Dustin, stop it.
@@josh7693 Sadly he did
If Dustin win, then it will be the 2nd time Islam lose when khabib at the corner. Shine bright like a 💎. Let's go!
I think they are going to win:
poirier
strickland
Oleksiejczuk
morono
brown
Dustin Ko Islam as Islam goes in for a take down. Or Islam Kos Dustin with a head kick.
Love how u gave Ben Hendo his flowers
