Love Burgos , never bet against em. But I never bet against clay and that's because I know no matter what clay will bring it every time. Shane is too comfortable getting hit from a distance and keeping the same pace. I see clay picking em apart to win a 30-27

Hurricane Shane Burgos!

Shane is bigger and stronger. He will be all over Clay, don't underestimate Shane's banging boxing abilities!
Burgos by decision!

Predictions: 10 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 600 Points   |   98th Place

Aubin-Mercier vs. Miranda
Olivier Aubin-Mercier, DEC
Surprised Miranda is such a big underdog here, he has heavy hands, solid TDD and powerful leg kicks. Could definitely see a flash KO from Miranda here and might even throw a couple bucks on it just to see, but OAM should win a decision because Miranda is gonna leave openings for clinching and takedowns.

Leal vs. Sy II
Sadibou Sy, DEC
Sy’s a killer even though he’s 36. But Leal hasn’t been finished since 2014 and even that was a submission. It still remains his only career loss by finish. Sy should dominate and take a UD.

Magomedkerimov vs. Renfro
Magomed Magomedkerimov, TKO, R1
I don’t think Renfro is as bad as people think, but if there’s one thing about him it’s that he cannot wrestle at all whatsoever. Maga by ground and pound.

Pergande vs. Stefanelli
Alexei Pergande, SUB, R2
Pergande will be in a season next year at this rate. Looks amazing. Would be interesting to see him fighting PFL featherweights.

Rashed Neda vs. Kuppe
Mostafa Rashed Neda, TKO, R1
Cannot pick Kuppe here, he’s way too chinny and Neda has all first round KOs.

Leal hits hard but is also hittable himself. Sy is really coming into his own, looking very impressive lately.

hurts to go against Shane. He just has not looked the same since the UFC release.

Aubin-Mercier vs. Miranda
Olivier Aubin-Mercier, DEC
possible OAM sub.

Leal vs. Sy II
Sadibou Sy, DEC
Leal happened to have maybe the worst peformance I've seen from him in his last loss to Sy, wouldn't be surprised if this is a lot closer.

Magomedkerimov vs. Renfro
