Scott Askham, TKO, R3
You know you're special when you can lose 3 straight and still get another shot at the title. Idc if you were the champ before, you should still have to win fights to get title shots.
Surdu vs. Romanowski
Ion Surdu, TKO, R1
Don't count out Romanowski immediately after seeing a 9-7 record attached to his name. He's unbeaten in 3+ years, and they both haven't fought the toughest guys. I see it alot closer to 50/50 than the TAP world sees it, I guess.

Predictions: 3 of 8 Winners, 2 Perfect, 225 Points | Tied for 249th
Andreas Gustafsson Berg, TKO, R3
Janikowski is definitely a better wrestler,far more esplosive than Berg, he can finish him, but his cardio is terrible. Gustafsson is an average striker, but his wrestling is not the worst, and his pressure,cardio, ground'n'pound will be a problem for Janikowski when he will gas out.
Kaszubowski vs. Kamieniarz
Jakub Kamieniarz, SUB, R2
Kamieniarz is definitely a better kicker, boxing wise it's close but Jakub is also faster. Krystian's wrestling is much better and he's a pretty solid grappler but not very good defensively. I also think Kamieniarz is definitely a more dangerous and technically better grappler and he will probably submit him, Truscek who took the fight with Kaszubowski on 1 day notice, almost tapped him out. Jakub's cardio is not really good but it's probably still better than Krystian's and he has better tools to set the pace in this fight imo.
Bekavac vs. Mysiala
Przemysław Mysiala, TKO, R2
Bekavac is a much better striker but if Mysiala goes for the takedowns, he will probably tire up and finish him with g'n'p. His cardio is better and his striking is better than Stepjan's grappling so...

Predictions: 3 of 8 Winners, 2 Perfect, 225 Points | Tied for 249th
Scott Askham, TKO, R4
Easy for Askham. He can win this in striking via using his reach, his kicks, his nice cross, pressure, because Khalidov is a weak counter-striker. Of course, Mamed is much faster but reach of Scott will make it difficult for Khalidov to just land punches on him. Mamed is also not good at using southpaw stance. Askham can also tire him up in the clinch, control him on the ground without getting submitted. His cardio is better, he will probably finish him in the later rounds.
Ilić vs. Materla
Aleksandar Ilić, TKO, R3
Illic is a much better striker, better height and reach, much better kicks, he's faster, he's a southpaw. Boxing I would say is equal, Aleksandar's boxing is not very good and Materla has some nice counters but precision is on Illic's side imo, he also has a good feints. Materla is a much better wrestler and grappler but to be honest, Aleksandar's defensive grappling is pretty solid. He's takedown defense is average at most but Materla isn't really a great wrestler too. But I think Illic won't be easy to submit or the finish with g'n'p for Michał. His defensive grappling is better than Materla's defensive striking, and his cardio is better for sure. Materla is so slow and hittable, man I think in the striking he will get his ass kicked. He can win this with wrestling and grappling but I just see Aleksandar KO'ing him.
Surdu vs. Romanowski
Tomasz Romanowski, TKO, R3
Why the **** Tommy's T1 fights don't exist on tapology, and they do on sherdog. But whatever, maybe Surdu is a better kicker but Tomasz has a clear boxing adventage and his pressure will be a problem for Surdu. His cardio is better, I think Tomasz can also easily take it to the ground. He will probably tire Ion up and finish him.
Stasiak vs. Surdyn
Patryk Surdyn, DEC
Stasiak will try to land kicks and straight punches from outside but I think Surdyn, because of his speed adventage, will get inside where he's much better and his strikes will probably be more significant. Also Surdyn's leg kicks will be a problem for Damian. I don't think either of them will get their opponent down, but It'll help them to just make their opponent think. If Stasiak will take Surdyn down oraz take his back, I don't think he will be able to submit him and Patryk's elbows are very dangerous and they will make Stasiak think twice before he goes for a takedown.
