Cauley vs. Jeffries

Sulley is the more active fighter, where Jefferies....his last fight was 4 years ago.....almost looks like a KO/TKO coming in Round 1

It was originally listed as a pro fight when the odds came out. It was changed to amateur after books already put it up. Guess they haven’t taken it down or just haven’t noticed it changed.

Hmm isn't Aaron Jeffery like the best underdog to bet on this card?

Schoenfelder vs. Currier

Predictions: 7 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 450 Points | Tied for 728th

I wouldn't say that. Both of them are first rounders more or less. There's almost 20 kg diffrence between them from the last weight-in's.

I think Jeffery is the best dog on the card. Vanderford is not some god

Gracie vs. Yamauchi
Goiti Yamauchi, TKO, R1
I think their grappling will cancel each other out. Whoever has the better hands will win and I think that's Yamauchi.

Moldavsky vs. Mowry
Valentin Moldavsky, DEC
Moldavsky has better wins but Mowry has the better record, tough call.

Gracie vs. Yamauchi
Goiti Yamauchi, SUB, R1
Nothing more satisfying than seeing a Gracie get submitted, hope I'm right.

Moldavsky vs. Mowry
Valentin Moldavsky, DEC
What a fight! Mowry is a great bet at +160 even if I think Moldavsky will be too technical for him

Sowma vs. Saricam
Said Sowma, TKO, R1
Another live dog here, especially at heavyweight

Vanderford vs. Jeffery
Aaron Jeffery, TKO, R2
and another one! This card is awesome, Bellator is getting really good

Cauley vs. Jeffries
Sullivan Cauley, TKO, R1
Nevermind, here's the bad matchmaking I expected.

Downey vs. Nelson
Patrick Downey, TKO, R1
yeesh

Schoenfelder vs. Currier
Bailey Schoenfelder, TKO, R1
oof

Bye vs. Yah Li
Brett Bye, DEC
Gotta pick the wrestler. Also, I wonder if Li has commas on his drivers license

Rewatching the Brendan Allen fight on DWCS against Aaron Jeffrey; I think you guys are right.

I think Vanderford might get exposed once again.

Jeffery got unlucky he had to face Caio on the Contender Series, he's UFC quality.

I have a feeling that more than half of the underdogs on the main card will win
