Predictions: 9 of 13 Winners, 5 Perfect, 655 Points   |   Tied for 2004th

Pantoja vs. Erceg
Alexandre Pantoja, DEC
The best fighter in the division will, once again, demonstrate that he is the best fighter in the division. Erceg is a tough mfer so he’ll be there standing at that final bell.

Martinez vs. Aldo
Jonathan Martinez, DEC
Head over heart. Martinez 29-28.

Smith vs. Petrino
Vitor Petrino, TKO, R1
Lol

Pereira vs. Potieria
Michel Pereira, SUB, R1
Michel can probably do whatever he wants to this man. Spurred on by a crowd ravenous for revenge after what Ihor did to Shogun, I can see Michel coming out like a house on fire, rocking and subbing Potieria. Light work.

Craig vs. Borralho
Caio Borralho, TKO, R2
Seems like a good stylistic matchup for Borralho. Barring a bozo moment he gets this done.

Brito vs. Shore
Joanderson Brito, SUB, R2
Brito is on a different level. Just look at his win over Diego Lopes - which has aged immaculately. Shore won’t be able to outwrestle Joanderson for more than a round, max.

Kowalkiewicz vs. Lucindo
Iasmin Lucindo, DEC
Odds should be way closer, but Lucindo should theoretically be able to get the grappling going.

Brener vs. Orolbai
Elves Brener, TKO, R2
Charly Olives Junior. Remember the name. If he can survive Guram, he can overcome the mighty Orolbai.

Silva vs. Gomis
Jean Silva, TKO, R3
51/49 fight. Jean Silva more dangerous, but nobody would be surprised by a technical-but-gunshy William Gomis decision win.
