Predictions: 8 of 12 Winners, 2 Perfect, 575 Points | Tied for 875th
Santiago Ponzinibbio, DEC
Ponzi should win this but in a very close scrap. Morono is good, but Ponzi is an elite whose time has passed. If Ponzi was a few years younger, I could see him being a threat to the belt.
Perrin vs. Rosas Jr.
Raul Rosas Jr., DEC
Jay Perrin is fairly good but not a significant enough step up in terms of competition for me to second-guess this pick. Raul looks very promising rn; excited to see what he can do over the next year or two.
Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
Daukaus will actually have the speed advantage, but Rozenstruik has a major skill advantage. And the speed disparity won't be great enough to offset that. Jairzinho will put him away the instant he catches him.
Shahbazyan vs. Lungiambula
Edmen Shahbazyan, TKO, R1
It's refreshing to see Edmen under better tutelage now. Keep forgetting he's still very young in the game.
Curtis vs. Buckley
Joaquin Buckley, TKO, R3
Buckley is good, and idt he gets the credit he deserves. He looks to be consistently improving as well, and Curtis gets pretty predictable with his body shots as fights progress, so this should be a good night for Joaquin.
Quarantillo vs. Hernandez
Billy Quarantillo, TKO, R2
Hernandez won't be very quick at 145, and the moment Billy Q puts pressure on, he'll crumble quickly.
Saaiman vs. Koslow
Cameron Saaiman, TKO, R1
Another young prospect. Saaiman looked great on DWCS; I think he should be able to put Koslow away in a fast-paced fight, tho neither fighter's stock should go down regardless.

Till vs. Du Plessis

Im not convinced this fight is official until they lock the cage doors with these two in there
Mitchell vs. Topuria
Ilia Topuria, TKO, R3
Topuria is an absolute hammer, his grappling is good too. Bryce might be in trouble.
Perrin vs. Rosas Jr.
Raul Rosas Jr., DEC
Rosas wont go far if he does not work on his development more. I am the same age as him.
Rozenstruik vs. Daukaus
Jairzinho Rozenstruik, TKO, R1
Bigi Boy is an elite gate keeper

Bruce wins via Stoppage or Decision... Really not much wiggle room IMO... This should be FOTN for sure.
Topuria is tough, but he has never shown anything that leads me to believe he can out point Bryce, nor do I see him getting a stoppage.
Bryce will take this fight anywhere he wants anytime he wants. He knows he just needs to be careful for the first 3 minutes. I'm betting Bryce will get the takedown before 3 min mark of the fight. After that it will be rinse & repeat.
Thug Nasty by what ever ends the fight. He's bigger, stronger, taller as well as undefeated. Bryce wins this fight 9 of 10 times. He just too much for Topuria.

also why just the first 3 minutes? to me there's never been an indication that topuria struggles with his cardio
he literally got rocked like 20 times against herbert (getting rocked insanely diminishes your gas tank) and his gas tank didn't look to be fading at all plus from the **** that's been coming out he seems like he's having a pretty smooth cut
damage is worth more than control on the scorecards and even if topuria somehow doesnt finish bryce, i expect him to have done enough damage on the feet and from bottom to be able to make up for any control bryce will have gotten
