Predictions: 3 of 4 Winners, 2 Perfect, 200 Points   |   Tied for 70th

Espinoza vs. Ferhatbegović
Damir Ferhatbegović, DEC
I have no idea what pfl sees in this Espinoza guy. He is not as good as his record looks

Sousa vs. Henrique
Manoel Sousa, TKO, R2
This fight should be crazy. I selfishly hope pfl gives the wrong guy the contract so sousa can stand a chance of going to the ufc. He would be much better used there and more fun

Caruso vs. Romero
Anthony Romero, DEC
Romero is really good it’s a shame dana hates him. I would’ve thought his last fight could at least get him a short notice fught

Decca vs. Aguayo
Charlie Decca, DEC
What is it with pfl and signing guys coming off of dq losses. Deccas record is ugly but he actually has had better wins and performances than aguyo

Ferhatbegovic looked pretty bad at weigh ins, and PFL has really been pushing Espinoza I think the contract is his to lose

Anybody on Sousa, maybe think about bailing. Henrique is twice his size

I am taking a dog shot on Paulo. I know he has lost to shorter fighters before. But bloody hell that size difference. I think it's the most I have ever seen

not really confident on either side actually. don't really have a read on those fights, not super familiar with them plus i haven't done any actual deep dive on them recently

for some reason I have a weird feeling for this week betting wise so I'm going to be taking a complete break from both MMA and boxing, will be nice to watch a bunch of bums scrap it out on PFL soon though

Original New Predictions

Predictions: 4 of 4 Winners, 3 Perfect, 275 Points   |   Tied for 7th with 3 others

Espinoza vs. Ferhatbegović
I am going with Elvin Espinoza at -145. He has an odd counter left. Espinoza shall caress the opposing forces.

Sousa vs. Henrique
I appoint Manoel Sousa at -345. He has a bonkers uppercut. Sousa could whack the bandit.

Caruso vs. Romero
I tap Anthony Romero at -275. He has a xenotropic vulcan nerve pinch. Romero will likely vaccinate the performance.

Decca vs. Aguayo
I go for Charlie Decca at -135. He has a venomous five point palm exploding heart technique. Decca will undress the achievement.
