We are back with your A.I. predictions for UFC Vegas 96 this week. UFC 305 was a rough one that saw our A.I. go (1-4) on the night, missing on everything except Li Jingliang vs. Carlos Prates. That brings the overall W/L total to (15-10). Now, let's get into the picks.


Jared Cannonier vs. Caio Borralho


This is a classic striker vs. grappler matchup. Cannonier, known for his devastating knockout power, will try to keep the fight standing. Borralho, a skilled grappler with a relentless takedown game, will look to take the fight to the mat.


Prediction: Borralho by decision. He'll likely use his grappling to control the fight and wear down Cannonier over the rounds.


Angela Hill vs. Tabatha Ricci


This is a battle between two strawweight contenders. Hill, a veteran striker, will try to use her experience and reach advantage to keep Ricci at bay. Ricci, a talented grappler, will look to close the distance and take the fight to the ground.


Prediction: Hill by decision. She'll likely use her striking to outpoint Ricci and avoid getting taken down.


Robert Valentin vs. Ryan Loder


This is a matchup between two middleweight prospects looking to make a statement. Valentin, a powerful striker, will try to land a knockout blow. Loder, a well-rounded fighter with a solid grappling game, will look to mix things up and keep Valentin guessing.


Prediction: Valentin by knockout. He'll likely land a big shot early in the fight and finish Loder.


Kaan Ofli vs. Mairon Santos


This is a clash between two exciting featherweight strikers. Ofli, known for his aggressive style and knockout power, will look to put Santos away early. Santos, a skilled striker with good movement, will try to avoid Ofli's power and pick him apart from the outside.


Prediction: Ofli by knockout. He'll likely catch Santos with a big shot and finish the fight in the first or second round.


Neil Magny vs. Michael Morales


This is a matchup between a veteran welterweight and a rising prospect. Magny, known for his durability and wrestling, will try to use his experience to grind out a win. Morales, a talented striker with knockout power, will look to keep the fight standing and land a finishing blow.


Prediction: Morales by knockout. He'll likely catch Magny with a big shot and finish the fight in the early rounds.


Edmen Shahbazyan vs. Gerald Meerschaert

This is a fight between two middleweights looking to get back in the win column. Shahbazyan, a former top prospect, will try to use his striking and athleticism to overwhelm Meerschaert. Meerschaert, a veteran grappler with a dangerous submission game, will look to take the fight to the ground and finish Shahbazyan.


Prediction: Shahbazyan by TKO. He'll likely use his striking to hurt Meerschaert and finish the fight in the first or second round.
