Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 505 Points   |   Tied for 174th

The fighters are weighed in (2 bad misses by Munhoz and Prezerez) and we're set for Saturday night. 

Some quality match-ups here, even if it continues the 2018 trend of weird/underwhelming main events. 


(Update: Dodson hasn't accepted the fight with Munhoz. Co-main is off.)

The next fight is my main event. Shevchenko is gonna run through this girl, then run through Montano and finally capture her belt. She will run this division!

Pretty much, yeah. Don't see anyone beating schev at 125 but I'd wager that JJ has a a crack and will beaten up by her for 4th time.

I might be the only person rooting for Cachoeira here. She an ex-crackhead, came back from the dead and somehow reached main card on a worldwide MMA event. That's some ******* life achievement right there. 

But yeah, I don't think she stands a chance here.

Just stop the fight, goodness gracious! **** you Mario Yamasaki. Good thing she subbed her, bevause he certainly wasn’t stopping the fight anytime soon...

Complete and total domination. I feel bad for Montano, even she has to know she doesn’t stand a chance.

Shevchenko is as good as 125lb champ, she will destroy Nicco Montano.

On the other hand, Cachoeira could have tapped to strikes anytime if she wanted to. Don't blame Yamasaki for everything.

I love Shevchenko. She's the uncrowned champ and the future ruler of the Division but that was cringe worthy to watch. That fight should've been stopped about 80 significant strikes earlier.

C'mon CarteLL that was the ref's job to stop that fight way earlier. Don't kid yourself.
