Predictions: 4 of 12 Winners, 0 Perfect, 200 Points | Tied for 2365th
Marlon Moraes, SUB, R1
I think Marlon and Cejudo will exchange on the feet for about one minute, then Marlon submits Cejudo with a Guillotine choke.
Shevchenko vs. Eye
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
The bullet will dominate this fight and get a decision. Pretty simple. Bullet will destroy Eye.
Ferguson vs. Cerrone
Tony Ferguson, SUB, R3
I think Donald will dominate Tony on the feet, and Tony will be stuck in an exchange with him. Tony will realize Donald is better on the feet, and he will submit Cowboy via Ankle pick.
Rivera vs. Yan
Petr Yan, TKO, R1
I think Yan is a monster, he will come out very aggressive and score a overhand right. It’ll send Jimmie right back to the undercard.
Munhoz vs. Sterling
Pedro Munhoz, TKO, R1
I think Pedro vs Sterling will be awesome. Sterling will come out with a takedown that Munhoz will defend, then Pedro will come out swinging in the last minute, where he will score an impressive KO.

How did we get here.. this is a live execution
Ferguson vs. Cerrone
Donald Cerrone, TKO, R1
Just got a feeling Tony’s sloppy style will get him clipped, Pettis showed he’s still a bit chinny
Rivera vs. Yan
Petr Yan, TKO, R1
Safest bet of the night, Jimmie will probably pull out
Suarez vs. Ansaroff
Tatiana Suarez, DEC
2nd safest bet of the night
Lamas vs. Kattar

Henry Cejudo, TKO, R4
The tale of the tape does not matters after Henry beat DJ. It about the state of mind and Henry is in perfect condition. He will knock out Marlon Moraes, I don't even know who he is.

Marlon Moraes, SUB, R3
Ok, I'm all for these "Super-Fights" (if that's whatcha wanna call this fight), but I think there should be a rule in place, where you hafta defend your title ATLEAST TWICE, before you can move up or down to challenge for a new strap. Otherwise I feel the division is kinda held hostage and put on hold... Anyways tho. I think Cejudo's already enormous dome-piece is even more inflated. But I think it's gonna pop from tooo much pressure in a week. The Only area I see an advantage for Cejudo, is the blatantly obvious wrestling. But I think Moraes is better everywhere else. I think he submits Cejudo within 3.
Shevchenko vs. Eye
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
Duuude, I friggin forgotta bout this fight. Like I straight up legit forgot. Sooo how did we end up here. Say this to yourself, it makes nooo sense: Jessica Eye = World Title Challenger. makes Noooo dammmn sense.
Ferguson vs. Cerrone
Tony Ferguson, DEC
THIS FIGHT IS ****-KING SLAMMIN'!!!!!!!!! It's not even a question who I'll pick, Tony Ferguson is my favorite all-time fighter, regardless of weight class. I'll always ride or die with Ferguson. Sooo I am a little biased. There's maybe only 2 fights I'd MAYBE pick against Ferguson. Gaethje & Khabib. But anyways. Maaaan this fight. There's nothing to be said. it's just one of them fights. Just sit back, shut up, and watch this instant classic.
Rivera vs. Yan
Petr Yan, TKO, R2
I'm not reeaaal sure what's up with Jimmie Rivera lately. Maybe he's just been figured out, or he got over confident and didn't take fights seriously, Idk. But what I do know, Petr Yan is NOT the right guy to face, if you're trying to right the ship. Petr Yan is world class. He's a savage, hungry rabid animal out for mass bloodshed. I knew this kid was special, and he's even delivered bigger performances in the UFC. He's absolutely destined to be the Bantamweight World Champ, sooner rather than later. Mark my words on that one.

Bevon Lewis, SUB, R2
Lewis will have to show he learned a lesson from the Hall fight. Same dangers here in this fight. Don't get KO'd and he should clearly win. Stewart has the same kind of come from behind power as Hall and will also give away rounds and lean on that power. Lewis seems to me the type of fighter who can evolve more then Stewart who is who he is at this point. The pick is Lewis. I say by sub off of ground and pound. Odds are a little high at -240 right now so not much meat on the bone here.

Calvin Kattar, TKO, R3
This has potential to be a very entertaining fight. I do not pick Kattar with high level of confidence. The path for Lamas is use leg kicks to slow Kattar down enough to grapple his way to a decision. Which he is plenty capable of doing. Kattar on the other hand has a big edge in hand speed and fights well as a counter puncher using a excellent jab. Kattar is durable and the more unlikely of the two to get finished. Lamas can be KO'd so if he cant slow down the jab of Kattar he will get put down eventually. Add all that to the Pressure of being in his hometown and near the end of his career and a tough opponent in Kattar it could be too much. I will pick Kattar but the oddsmakers have this one right so betting it is a risky bet.

Tatiana Suarez, DEC
Suarez is a mauler her style is just very hard to halt. Ansaroff is a tough vet but I think the outcome is clear. Odds leave you no chance to make any real money. I would look to the total of 2.5 under to maybe get a little value. Pick is Suarez with 50% chance she finishes early

Tai Tuivasa, TKO, R1
Well Blagoy, you're not gonna lose this fight, and still come out with a win like last time, coz if you lose, it's cause you got KTFO'd...
Suarez vs. Ansaroff
Tatiana Suarez, SUB, R1
This chick just blows me away man. Tatiana Suarez is a frickin beast of a woman. She's gotta have the best wrestling game in the division, Annnd her SUB game is getting pretty nasty. She's a dream killer Maaaan.
Munhoz vs. Sterling
Pedro Munhoz, DEC
You coulda made an argument for either of these dudes, for that snubbed title shot given to Cejudo. But the winner here, is DEFINITELY next in line. IN MY OPINION. Annnd then Petr Yan. Yeeaaaa already. Yan has to win 1st tho.
Kowalkiewicz vs. Grasso
Alexa Grasso, DEC
Dude. every-*******-time I've picked Karolina, I've gotten burnt sooo badly, I thought I was the one receiving the Beatdown. Noooo way am I ever picking her again. Unless in the occasion she falls from grace so badly, she's fighting amateurs making their debuts

Calvin Kattar, DEC
Maaaan it's kinda a tough pick actually. I'm not completely sold on Lamas' career being over, and he's just collecting a check. I'm by no means saying he's still gotta title run in him, cause I'd be hallucinating. Lamas I believe is still capable of bullying Kattar to a split decision, but I just have a feeling, it's more likely to be Kattar by decision. I respect Lamas for not taking an easy fight, for most likely his last fight in front of his hometown fans (Atleast in the big show)
Yan vs. Hill
Xiaonan Yan, DEC
I'm not a rabid fan of WMMA..... But this fight will be fun as **** to watch. Neither of these chicks are rarely in a boring fight. Ever.
Lewis vs. Stewart
Bevon Lewis, TKO, R1
Welllll... I see two huge middleweights, slinging ****-king haymaker bombs, until one completely blows away the other's face. Should be fun while it lasts..
Wineland vs. Popov
Eddie Wineland, DEC
Eddie ****-king Wineland. Holy ****. We all know how long dude's been in the game, but the problem is...... He's still the same ************* Eddie Wineland from 50 years ago. But I know jack **** about this other Russian dude. Who surprisingly is older than Wineland. I guess I need to do some research or something..
Chookagian vs. Calderwood
Joanne Calderwood, DEC
Honestly, I think Chookagian is a little over-hyped. I kinda feel like she's a little one dimensional and hasn't really improved much since her debut. Where as JoJo has really impressed me her last few fights. like she's figuring it out..... Hafta take JoJo here. She's got more paths to victory than Chookagian.
