hello i'm kirk. software engineer. brazilian jiujitsu enthusiast. sometimes surfer.
surprisingly the commentary team -- with 2 BJJ black belts in daniel cromier and joe rogan -- did not even broach this topic at all even though they will mention things like "x fighter has dynamite hands but they tend to get hit a lot"

in the main event Shavkat got back mounted and his defense from there looked really bad. Garry was able to get an arm around his neck and keep it there with shockingly little resistance

in the prelims terribly washed Chris Weidman was being touted by Rogan as having "elite grappling" but you could clearly see that once he was put on his back he looked rather lost/limited

Alex Pereira vs. Jamahal Hill

This is going to be a kickboxing match so you have to pick Pereira. Hill maybe has an advantage on the ground but he doesn't really attempt takedowns.

Zhang Weili vs. Yan Xiaonan

Weili is going to easily take Xiaonan down and do whatever she wants to her. The gap in grappling skill is just too wide.

Justin Gaethje vs. Max Holloway

Everyone seems to think Max is going to get clobbered but I think he gets it done here. Holloway's pace and volume should carry him through but it'll be close. Gaethje gets sloppy when he tires and that's when Max shines

Charles Oliveira vs. Arman Tsarukyan

Picking Tsarukyan because 1) he did far better against their common opponent Makhachev and 2) Oliveira is too content to work off his back instead of getting up off the ground and that will him in trouble if/when Tsarukyan gets him down

Bo Nickal vs. Cody Brundage

Squash match for Bo Nickal. He is a +2000 favorite or something insane like that. Brundage has a history of just getting vaporized if he is taken down and Bo Nickal is a generational wrestling talent.
