Rafael Lovato Jr., SUB, R1
**** it! I think I'm taking Lovato to get the sub!
Shipman vs. van Steenis
Mike Shipman, TKO, R3
This might be the best fight on the card. 2 of Europes top prospects in a closely matched fight and I think the winner, especially if it's Shipman fights Fabian Edwards next
Chalmers vs. Freeman
Fred Freeman, SUB, R2
So people still think a reality TV star can win fights? Even after he was subbed by a barely regional level guy last time? I know Coker has dug deep into the lowest of levels for this opponent but still Freeman has lots of experience with a heap of amateur fights too, a lot of losses but while he was fighting Chalmers was on Geordie Shore having drunken brawls and banging Geordie slags on reality TV! I refuse to pick a reality TV reject and just like his last fght I'm gonna be laughing my ass off when he loses!
Greyson vs. Mlambo
Frans Mlambo, TKO, R2
Mlambo is 1 of the few underdogs I like. He was 2x IMMAF World Champion and his pro record is decieving as he was thrown in at the deep end early. Greyson is a UK level fighter who I expect Frans to outclass, I am a little worried about the ground tho!
