Colby Covington, DEC
A bit of an overrated matchup between two contenders who are on vastly different levels. I understand they used to be friends and now they're foes, but I find the rivalry and feud corny or fake. That aside, I see Colby's pressure and volume being too much for Masvidal over 5. Jorge can and will have major success in bursts where he throws tremendous flurries, but Colby will survive that and will just take him down at will. By round 4, Masvidal will be completely exhausted and then Colby will pick up the pace even more as he always does. Jorge is dangerous because he has a solid amount of power, and he's very scrappy and opportunistic with a big array of strikes at his disposal. But Covington has cardio and wrestling combined with a pace that is just too much for him right now, and I can see a decision win for Covington with scores of 49-45 or 48-46 depending on how you score the rounds before Jorge tires himself out.
Eye vs. Fiorot
Manon Fiorot, TKO, R2
I'm just going to assume the UFC wants Jessica Eye dead. I will admit that she gets a lot of hate and she actually is pretty decent, but come on. Manon Fiorot is the future of women's MMA. She is so long, and knows how to use it. Her kicks are snappy and powerful, She has so much power and weight behind her punches. Jessica Eye is a jack of all trades; can do everything but at a average level. Not good at anything, she's just meant to test 'contenders' as a flyweight gatekeeper. She is really tough, but serviceable everywhere. Manon by murder, somewhere in between rounds 1 and 2.

Honesly I could see the main event being a snecky good one, I think Masvidal takedown deffece is underated, Usman couldn't really take him down in either of the fight if my memory is correct, If Masvidal stays off the fence it could be good

Rafael dos Anjos, DEC
I think if Foshizzile can't get RDA out of there in the first few round, I think RDA could grind him out or maybe sub him.
