New setting for DWTNCS and I assume TUF. Much better seating for families and fans, including a VIP suite. But definitely has a tv set/studio feel compared to old settings.

Punahele Soriano, SUB, R1
Soriano looks like a good prospect. He has destroyed all of his past opponents without getting out the 1st round in any of his fights! I expect much of the same to happen here, though things could get interesting if Pickett lasts past the 1st round as that's uncharted territory for Soriano. I don't think this is the fight that happens. Another 1st round finish and a contract for the Hawaiian
Robbins vs. Goldy
Kali Robbins, SUB, R2
I think this fight is much closer than the odds and pick percentages suggest. Though Goldy is undefeated as a pro Robbins has fought tougher competition and is a more skilled fighter, particularly on the ground. Goldy has gotten her wins by using her superior strength and athleticism. This is a close fight and I'm taking the underdog
Algeo vs. Loughnane
Brendan Loughnane, DEC
This is the best fight of the night by a long way. Both these guys could easily be in the UFC already so it's a shame that only 1 will get the opportunity. Loughnanes the better striker of the 2 with Algeo having better submissions but really both guys are pretty evenly matched. I'm tempted to take the underdog but I like Loughnane and have been hoping he would get another shot in the UFC for years now! Plus he's flying the flag for the UK so gotta back him for patriotic reasons!!!
De Castro vs. Meeks
Alton Meeks, TKO, R1
Meeks is another fighter who hasn't had to go more than a round! He's a powerful former college footballer who looks for a power double so he can unleash nasty fight ending GNP! De Castro is a grinder, his last fight was TERRIBLE! I really hope Meeks puts him out quick!
