Prediction: correct Formiga   wrong Decision  

Nguyen looked solid against Herrera and finished Elliott fast his last outing, but Formiga has too much experience against top competition and is too skilled a grappler to make those same mistakes. I think Formiga has enough to win this fight wherever it goes, and in a scramble fest I think he has a high chance to catch Ben in a submission. Smolka had his way with Ben on the ground and he's nowhere near Formiga's level.

Prediction: wrong Nguyen   wrong Decision  

I think the underdog Ben 10 is coming into his own, and Formiga is like 92 (really 32 but looks ancient).

Prediction: wrong Nguyen   wrong Decision  

Nguyen is entering his prime and Formiga has a habit of losing to upcoming contenders. Ben 10 by decision.

Prediction: wrong Nguyen   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

I sense the fire in this kid.  The Aussie crowd will amp him up.  Not sure if it will help him or give him the jitters.  Also, perth is so isolated, it's like fighting on the moon and Ben 10 will know what to expect.  Formiga might find the oxygen a bit thin for his liking.  Guess we will find out on the night.
