Finally, Bellator was the card I got all my picks right.

The UFC card however, I'm not sure. It is one of those rare fights where there is disconnect between who I WANT to win and who I THINK will win. So, I'm just going based on who I want to win:

- Hendricks: even though Costa is a beast.

- Thompson

-Jędrzejczyk: I watched the UFC behind the scenes stuff and got a little turned off by the way Jędrzejczyk was acting. She was being unnecessarily mean to Rose. That being said, it is hard to beat against her, even though she is reminding me of Rousey at this stage

-Dillashaw: I'm picking him because I just don't like Garbrandt, even though I think he's the better fighter

-Michael Bisping: I'm picking him because I've yet to see a fighter come back from a long layoff and look like their former self. I doubt GSP has the power to KO Bisping, and it will hinge on him getting his back. Bisping is underrated in my opinion, and would like to see him retain the belt one more time.

I agree with your picks. I also pick Micky Gall. Not so confident in TJ but Garbtandt is the cringiest trash talker ever.

[[I watched the UFC behind the scenes stuff and got a little turned off by the way Jędrzejczyk was acting.]] That's likely because the UFC is pushing her to act like that- for ratings-

I can’t see GSP being that sharp with his last fight being literally a full four years ago. Plus, he’s a WW fighting at MW. The situation does’t look promising for GSP on the surface.

Of course, GSP can pull out a win if he gets him on the ground for most of the fight and just goes full-blanket on him.
