Idris Virgo, DEC
It'll be your typical Virgo decision win with a lot of body shots and some offense from Chalmers, apparently this is the start of a Pro Tournament so I'm intrigued to see who else will be in.
Oliveira vs. Ginty
Thomas Oliveira, TKO, R2
Temper's a weird one, he's shown good ability and knowledge of the ring, but when it comes to the big fights he crumbles and gets knocked out, he does have potential and I think he'll do enough to clear out Ginty quickly.
Tebi vs. Khan
Ashley Tebi, DEC
Really don't agree with this fight, Rak-Su deserves a tougher opponent after the surprise win against Kenny (not to discredit Ham obvs), think it'll be a comfortable U.D win for Rak-Su nonetheless.
Silva vs. Davis
Ben Davis, DEC
Love Ben Davis on Twitter (refuse to call it X.) however he is up against the son of Anderson Silva, arguably the GOAT of MMA, I've seen Davis on pads and he looks slick, think it will be a tough fought out decision win for him.
Rwodzi vs. Sastim
Omer Sastim, TKO, R2
Oogway actually looks decent from training footage, good new name to add to Misfits.
Izzard vs. Jibunor
Okemka Jibunor, TKO, R4
OJ looked great against Slice although it was an early stoppage, Izzard looks decent from the footage I've seen, not sure he can do enough to beat OJ though.
Bunker vs. del Busso
Arabella del Busso, DEC
Bellsy has such a height advantage, Bunker can make a fight a total war though as seen by her fight with Astrid, predicting another 4 round war with Bellsy getting the decision win.
Arif vs. Chris
Pully Arif, DEC
Pully showed decent potential against Deen despite Deen dominating most the fight, don't know too much about Jay though.
Jade vs. Kiran
Carla Jade, TKO, R2
Don't know either.

Virgo, DEC
Chalmers is not at the level of Virgo, for Virgo to act like he's influencer is laughable. Get him a legit fight soon.
Oliveira vs. Ginty
Oliveira, TKO, R3
Ginty is a nice steppingstone back into competition for Temper, if he's improved, he should come out and beat Ginty fairly easily. Ginty hasn't shown anything really impressive.
Tebi vs. Khan
Tebi, TKO, R4
Rak-Su was originally scheduled to fight Kimbo Jr. I believe, unfortunate that fight fell apart. Halal Ham hasn't shown much and he's way too short to be fighting at these higher weights. Rak-Su makes it look easy.
Silva vs. Davis
Silva, KO, R1
Respect to Ben Davis for taking this fight. He should last longer than he did in his grappling debut, not much longer though.
Izzard vs. Jibunor
Jibunor, TKO, R4
Rose definitely shocked everyone with his performance against Kimbo Jr, and Callum is a great fight for him. OJ I believe is one of the better influencer boxers. Callum is decent and comes into this fight with a big size advantage. This fight being at 170 should favor Callum who was above 190 in his last fight and OJ weighed in 165 against Kimbo. This should be FOTN contender.

Idris Virgo, DEC
Do I honestly need to say why? Virgo is by far the superior boxer and this is just a walk in the park for him to hype up the pro tournament. Virgo could potentially get a TKO but Virgo hasn't shown to stop many people but he may potentially overwhelm Chalmers and win via TKO but my safest bet is Virgo wins a very comfortable decision.
Oliveira vs. Ginty
Thomas Oliveira, TKO, R2
Funny how Ginty talks about Temper lifting up his chin yet he does the exact same, seems to easily be backed up also and very vulnerable to counters due to constantly keeping his head on the centreline, although he's been able to score 2 knockdowns while on the backfoot, I just dont see Temper being as reckless as Ham and JMX who's shown poor balance and footwork, although Temper has shown issues by keeping his chin in the air, keeping his head in the a slot etc, I just expect a couple improvements and dont really see his chin being a big problem here. 190 is the weight Temper should be at, so I envison him to be stronger in this fight, due to Ginty constantly keeping his chin in the air whenever he throws a very telegraphed jab, I see Temper taking a step back and responding with a straight left, similar to what he did with Overt, going for Temper R2 T/KO.
Tebi vs. Khan
Ashley Tebi, DEC
Not sure why the fight is only 3 rounds but I predict Raksu to just stay on the outside and keep his range over the smaller Ham, I expect Ham to be rushing in with step in jabs and overhands though Raksu will keep him away and back up, although Raksu has shown terrible footwork and balance and has the potential to be caught off balance I just don't see Ham being the one to exploit that, going with Ashley Rak-Su Via Decision
Silva vs. Davis
Gabriel Silva, DEC
I was 50 50 when I first saw Silva getting knocked out, but when u research it more you'd know it was by a credible opponent and when I saw Davis sparring footage, I'm not convinced enough to pick him, especially as Silva has the experience in this fight. Davis seems pretty slow and has a bad tendency of not tucking in his chin and has pretty weak defence, whereas with Silva, he has shown to easily be backed up but hes pretty long and I see him being able to jab his way to a decision over Davis, although hes shown some pretty bad flaws himself, I expect the experience and size to win him the fight, Silva via decision for me.
Izzard vs. Jibunor
Okemka Jibunor, TKO, R4
Fight of the night contender, Rosè has shown to have a good punch selection with solid counter shots, Izzard has a tendency to heavily telegraph shots by swinging wide and also lifts his chin. However both have shown to have a decent jab and and I envison them both landing and trading, overall though I see Rosè picking him apart and constantly landing counters all night, although Rosè has shown issues with his defence and footwork I do think he'll make it up for it by picking Izzard apart and wearing the bigger man down, going for Rosè via R4 T/KO
Bunker vs. del Busso
Arabella del Busso, DEC
Bunker heavily struggles with jabs and straights, she's very open and tends to just walk through shots or get backed up by a jab, Bellsy is very patient and tends to avoid 50 50 exchanges keeps a long guard, she was able to control her distance with jabs and straights, she does enter this fight with a significant height and reach advantage, I see Bunker constantly getting caught with the jab or straight and I dont think she'll be able to cut off the ring, so with that being said I'm going for Little Bellsy By Decision.
Arif vs. Chris
Pully Arif, DEC
Arif enters the fight with an 8 inch height advantage, shown to have a solid jab against Deen, feints up and downstairs shots, and whenever faced with pressure will shell up, duck low or clinch. Jay although steps into range with his jab, he can be backed up very easily, he telegraphs most of his shots, struggles to cut off the ring, lifts his chin up, drops his guard and overreaches at times. I expect Arif to bully Jay with the jab and constantly stay on the outside, he'll throw jabs to the body at times and quickly exit range while always moving around making it harder for Jay to back Arif on the ropes since he struggles to cut off the ring, I'm going Pully Arif Via Decision.
Jade vs. Kiran
Tasha Kiran, DEC
Well there isnt much on these two, Jade is a ring girl but Weekender lost to Bunker back in December last year, pretty much a coin flip for this fight but I'll pick Tash Weekender Via Decision just because of experience.
