Prediction: wrong Philippou   wrong Decision  

To me this feels like a bit of a step down in rankings for Philippou, but it should test his ground skills a bit but I think his TDD will hold up well and he should at least get a decision out of this fight.

Prediction: wrong Philippou   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  


In my eyes Carmont lost to both Lawlor and Larkin, both of whom are well outside the top ten. 


Costa is top five.

Costa by Decision if he keeps it standing. Same height as Larkin but has a 1 inch reach advantage over Larkin and he beat francis on the stand up, Costa also has a little more power and TDD than him, he also uses some great foot and head movement in his fights so i'll pick him, I mean this HL video speaks for itself.

Costa will pick him apart early and often, then Carmont's stamina will come into play and then goodnight Mr. Carmont.

Carmont won't get the opportunity to win a robbery here. Costa gets a stoppage in round two or three.

Feels like step down for Costa but I think beating a grappler will help him consolidate his position as a serious up and comer and gain more experience inside the octagon that will give him confidence moving up.

Also, he looks like the dude who kidnapped Liam Neeson's daughter.

Carmont got gifted the decision in his last fight but Costa will put him in his place. Definitely a step down from Boetsch but on the MMA Hour he was begging for a fight against anybody.
