Jack Hermansson, SUB, R2
The Joker will eat heavy shots in round one but will use the jab a ton until round two where he takes down Jared and submits him.

Cannonier TDD was expose by Glover but i'm not sure Hermanson TD are that good. On the feet, I think Cannonier is a legit treath to anyone in this devision. Hermanson may get the decision but this is a close fight.

Predictions: 6 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 440 Points   |   Tied for 386th

Hermansson vs. Cannonier
Jared Cannonier, TKO, R2
Tempted to go with Cannonier here. I know Hermansson has been really impressive recently, especially beating Jacare. But I kinda feel that was an unmotivated Jacare who has lost a step or 2. Ok Cannonier win was against the ghost of Anderson Silva! But since he's dropped to 185 I've been super impressed with him! I think I'm gonna go for the upset here. Hermansson doesn't seem to take strikes to well and Cannonier can crack!!

Cutelaba vs. Rountree
Khalil Rountree, TKO, R2
This Cutelaba guy is garbage! He's the classic bully! He'll paint his face like the Incredible Hulk and give you a mean staredown at the weigh ins, come at you hard right off the bat, but if you stand up to him he wilts and most likely lays down and let's you choke him out! I'm hoping Bangkok ready Khalil keeps this standing and KTFO's this bum!!!

St. Preux vs. Oleksiejczuk
Michał Oleksiejczuk, DEC
I like this Oleksiejczuk guy! His striking is definitely his strong point but good takedown defence and cardio. OSP can always pull off a head kick or strong arm his way into a submission. However I think Oleksiejczuk is too smart to fall for that, plus OSP only has 1 round of gas in him, I don't think there's gonna be a finish though as OSP is tough and I dont think Oleksiejczuk is even gonna try taking it to the ground here. So I'll take the DEC win

Amedovski vs. Phillips
Alen Amedovski, DEC
How is Phillips still in the UFC??? Dana must be doing Conor a favour of is there an SBG quota or something? Amedovski isn't up to much either abd I'm sure he popped just the other week so I think this fight will be cancelled, if not already. Probably for the best, cancel the fight, cut both guys and they can main card a Bellator Europe card

Oliveira vs. Dalby
Nicolas Dalby, TKO, R3
Happy to see Dalby get called back to the UFC in his home town. Especially after all the pints of blood he spilt in that crazy fight with my boy Ross Houston. Apparently Dalby was in tears devastated after that fight was called a no contest because he was under the impression that winner was getting on this card. Nice that the UFC signed him anyway. If you haven't seen the Dalby Houston fight from the last Cage Warriors event go watch it, it was CRAZY!!! 1st time I've ever seen a fight stopped because there was so much blood both men were slipping and sliding all over the shop!!! Honestly it was CRAZY!!! I hope my boy, fellow Scotsman Houston gets signed up too. Considering he is the champion and it was such a weird ending. A tonne of people blew up Dana Whites Twitter the other day about Houston and Dana did respond so I've high hopes thaf Ross will get a shot. Anyhoo! This fight I like Dalby to get the win, don't trust Oliveira. He could always pull off some wild **** but everything's with Dalby here, hometown return to the UFC, great back story(not that that counts for much!) I got Dalby possibly by late finish

Diakiese vs. Vannata
Marc Diakiese, TKO, R2
Love this fight! Should be guaranteed action! I really thought Diakese was on his way to the top 10 when he arrived in the UFC. He lost his way a bit but his latest performance against Duffy was encouraging. Vanatta is pretty similar in the way he arrived with a bang but then hit a rough patch. I'm thinking Diakese gets the win here as Vannata is very hittable and Diakese hits very hard!

I’m REALLY excited to see how and if  Roundtree has evolved his striking even further. It was an amazing transformation in his last fight, and I’m HOPING to see even more this time out! The guy is exciting as **** and is a real student of the fighting game and seems to be a sponge ..

Lack of respect for Cannonier is interesting...
This is a guy who legit used to fight at heavyweight, and got himself together and cuts all the way down to 185.
Ever since he dropped to 185, he looks like a different person.
All over him at +200 right now...obviously the big question is if he can stop the td of Hermansson.
