What do you guys honestly think about Figlak. 

For me he is from Cage Warriors which automatically a negative. And he was such a hyped prospect everyone on here thought he was the second coming until his debut. Another negative. 

Decent boxing, keeps getting leg kicked and getting rockee, meh wrestling, meh BJJ, Decent cardio and poor getup game.

Decently average in my view.

@Rah123 
with these CW guys you either get someone like Rhys McKee who looked terrible in the organization or Morgan Charriere who's actually legit. Anyways, Figlaks standup gonna be better than Austins, but Austins wrestling might squeeze him out some rounds, Hubbard has really improved everywhere comparing him to what he once was. However he's still not someone to trust. What's kinda concerning about Figlak is his lay off, I hate picking fighters who have been out for as long as Figlak, that's 2 years, this might not matter much since he's not fighting someone like top 15 but having that at the back of my mind makes it a lil worrysome. Definetly not touching lines of these guys. Still slightly leaning towards Figlak

It's also tricky to judge his debut that much. I mean Ziam on your debut seems like a nightmare lmao. Plus Ziam turned into a wrestler that fight, he either didn't expect Ziam to shoot or Figlak just doesn't have good TD defense in general.

I'm not very high on Figlak either. His debut against Ziam was so one-sided that either Ziam is a future contender or Figlak just isn't that good. I'm going to say the second is far more likely. He might get a few wins in the UFC and Hubbard will probably be one of them, but he's average at best.

I agree, she can only win off early sub. And I hope it doesn't go the distance, it'll be a sloppy mess if it does

Onama is way more athletic than anyone JSP fought in the ufc I highly doubt onama will be on his back for 3 straight rounds. Something worth noting is James Krause said onama barely trained for the landwher fight. Hopefully onama is taking his career serious at factory x & if he is he should smoke JSP who got ran through by Joe lauzon and struggled against a short notice Christian Rodriguez

Guskov vs Spann

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 1 Perfect, 420 Points   |   Tied for 3239th

After picking Guskov since this fight was first announced, I am now switching my pick to Spann just because everyone seems to think he is the better fighter.

I might have been looking to much at his loss to Anthony Smith and looking to little at his opponent skills.... but I swear, if Guskov sparks Spann's dumbass in the first round I am going to feel like such an idiot.

Picking a fight wrong because you doubted yourself and went with the popular opnion sucks way more than just being wrong.

@MothswordsTo add on, JSP is usually wrestling to take his opponent to positions where he can ground and pound. This can create opportunities for Onama to scramble out (as he's usually done pretty well) and go back to causing damage on the feet. However, I wonder if JSP will be somewhat competitive in the standup since his striking isn't horrible and Onama isn't the best when pressured.

Very torn on JSP vs. Onama like the rest of Tap. I'm leaning Onama right now but it's very hard to pick against a guy with such a well rounded skillset like JSP. 

Arguably the best fight on the card IMO.
