I think Pearson's win-loss-win-loss pattern is in serious jeopardy here.

Quick turn around fight for both of these guys. I am thinking Masvidal pulls out a Masvidalesque decision here.

I always thought Pearson was a small lightweight. Think he'll get mauled at WW & on short notice too

Ironically, I had Masvidal losing his fight vs Tim Means. Perhaps I should go back and rewatch that fight.

The only way it's close is if Masvidal wants it to be close, I think he butt-**** owns Pearson

I don't think ross can mix it up enough to throw masvidal off and he'll get countered because of it. He'll be looking for a left hook all night, but it won't land how he wants it to. Masvidal seems too big for someone like ross who only uses his hands.

Prediction: correct Masvidal   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I'll be curious to see how Masvidal fights coming off of back to back split decision losses. I'm thinking and hoping that it will result in him turning up the pace and actively looking for a finish. I think (and again hope) that he'll go balls to the wall, let it all hang out, and wind up finishing Ross. I have KO right now, but a choke wouldn't surprise me either.
