Before I get into anything, I would like to let people know that if you see an account that appears to be me on Twitter talking smack to you, it is definitely not me. I don't go around attacking people & there's obviously something mentally wrong with these people. My Twitter handle is @MartinP_MMA & the fraud uses 2 underscores MartinP__MMA to make it look similar. Just message me here or on my real account if you have any questions. Some people obviously don't have a life & aren't quite right in the head.

Pick: Rani Yahya
Analysis: This line has completely flipped from their first matchup that finished in a no contest due to an accidental headbutt. The question is, did we learn enough in their 39 second fight to justify the line swapping? I will say no. Yes, Bedford looked good but he can be a fast starter. I think this fight could play similar to the first with Bedford getting off to a quick start but he has horrible fight IQ & pretty bad submission defense. Bedford also has a bad chin but I don't see Yahya's pillow punches being able to finish the american. Bedford should win the first round but then he will gas & either put himself in a bad position that'll lead to him getting tapped out or Yahya will out-grapple & outpoint Bedford for the final 2 rounds. This is just as much a fade on Bedford as it a is a play on Yahya's grappling capabilities.
