Kowalkiewicz vs. Grasso
Karolina Kowalkiewicz, DEC
Pressure's on for Karolina. I think Grasso has a real shot if she learned from Rose's fights with KK & JJ. STAY OUT OF THE CLINCH! But can't quite believe it 'til I see it.

Lamas vs. Kattar
Ricardo Lamas, DEC
Lamas got flash KO'd by Emmett, seemed hesitant vs Bektic, and got the finish on Elkins. I think Lamas is going to leg kick the **** out of Kattar and win a comfortable decision in front of his home crowd.

Chookagian vs. Calderwood
Katlyn Chookagian, DEC
I'm rooting for Jo Jo, but gotta stay realistic. Katlyn by split decision.

Only ones I'm more than 65% confident in are Suarez, Yan, Tony, & Valentina.

Rooting hard for JoJo, Pedro, and El Cucuy even though I love Cowboy as well. For me, this fight is like when you keep going back to that chick that ****s you so well but shreds your back with her nails every time: Hurts like hell but it's just so damn good.

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 2 Perfect, 430 Points   |   Tied for 1437th

Cejudo vs. Moraes
Henry Cejudo, DEC
We'll see just how many kicks Cejudo's bigass head can absorb.

Shevchenko vs. Eye
Valentina Shevchenko, TKO, R4
Eye is tough, and I think we'll see that.

Ferguson vs. Cerrone
Tony Ferguson, TKO, R3
Ferguson controls range so well, and knows when to brawl - when his opponent is against the cage, breaking. Cerrone has counters and answers for everything, but Ferguson may have answers for his answers. Cerrone can kick to cover range, but Tony's hard to hit, and isn't gonna give you room to kick when he's moving in. Cerrone can clinch, but Ferguson loves elbows as much as he loves knees. Their grappling is at a somewhat similar level. I think Tony's gonna break him.

Rivera vs. Yan
Jimmie Rivera, DEC
Yan's a better striker, but I think Rivera can win the wrestling. It's just a matter of if Jimmie can get out of his own head and fight his fight, or if he'll be passive and let Yan dictate where the fight happens.

Tuivasa vs. Ivanov
Tai Tuivasa, TKO, R1
Similar to Yan/Rivera, but I'm picking the other way. Ivanov's sambo background should allow him to dominate Tuivasa, but he doesn't seem to have the confidence to force his opponent to grapple with him, while Tuivasa's full of assertiveness and confidence.

Suarez vs. Ansaroff
Tatiana Suarez, TKO, R3
I was proud to have pick Nina to beat Gadelha, but Suarez is next level. Ansaroff can definitely win this if she can keep it on the feet, but I don't think she'll be able to. Suarez is so gameplan-oriented; her striking and footwork set up her takedowns, and as soon as she has ahold of you, you don't just have to stuff one takedown, you have to stuff a chain of a hundred of them. Her hands are quicksand.

Munhoz vs. Sterling
Pedro Munhoz, DEC
There's a lot of close fights on this card, and this was another tough one to pick. I'm not sure who the better MMA grappler is, and I'm not sure who the better striker is. Sterling's striking looked incredible against Rivera, but Rivera looked terrible that night, and it's hard to tell how much is on each of them. My Munhoz pick assumes that Sterling's striking won't look the same agaisnt him, and the grappling will be competitive.

Kowalkiewicz vs. Grasso
Karolina Kowalkiewicz, DEC
This one's 50/50 for me, so I'm just picking Karolina because I want her to win.

Lamas vs. Kattar
Ricardo Lamas, TKO, R3
Death by leg kicks.

Yan vs. Hill
Xiaonan Yan, DEC
Death by karate sounds.

Lewis vs. Stewart
Bevon Lewis, DEC
Death by foot stomps.

Wineland vs. Popov
Eddie Wineland, SUB, R1
Death by mismatch.

Chookagian vs. Calderwood
Katlyn Chookagian, DEC
Chookagian has better movement, and will probably win while doing 0 damage.
