Yaawn, this card is living down to my expectations.

Moontasri needs to be at LW. 

Prazeres vs. OAM would be interesting.

Thought (hoped!) for a second Yakovlev was going to get a calf-slicer

Oh yeah, nice to see the 10-8s being handed out more freely.

that could be a 30-24 (with the point deduction). you pretty much can't get any more dominated than that.

Elkins for sure isn't all there in the head, like, 100% for sure. But watching him just bully guys has gotten pretty impressive. Let's see if he can get past Pepey's first round of death.

I picked Yakolev because white rappers are notoriously tough. No regrets.
