Weird step down for Pennington after her last two fights although the Correia fight was very close...

Prediction: correct Pennington   correct Decision  

Getting Phillips after beating Andrade and Betche seems a bit rough. I guess with such a slim division and this being one of those cards you want to be on for exposure it sort of makes sense.

Philips fights once a year these days and was close to getting submitted by Jessamyn Duke for the second time in her last fight, what's the point of giving her respect?

Prediction: correct Pennington   wrong Submission   wrong Round 2  

Pennington's last fight against Correia could've gone the way of Correia. Close fight but irrc I thought Pennington would win convincingly but that was far from convincing. With that said Pennington is a lot better than her record indicates at 7-5 and I don't see her having much trouble with Phillips who is also coming off an in injury. Pennington has improved night and day since her stint on TUF. Her only 2 losses were to Holm via Split Decision and Andrade via Split Decision as well. She was able to redeem her loss and great fashion against Andrade finishing her via Sub. With all that said Pennington is a bit underrated IMO and has been in there with a lot better competition. I expect her to either shut Phillips out in route to a 30-27 win or a Sub mid-fight and I'm personally taking her to win by Sub and set herself up with a quality next fight. Also kind of a step backwards to winning over a once Title contender Correia and now Phillips. Rocky P. is one of the more confident picks on this card for myself.
