#s to left are confidence points/rank. Though there’s over half the fights I can see go either way. Haha. I never saw Tafa fight but I have seen Castro blast a good wrestler prospects leg into oblivion so he won that coin toss. Tough card to predict for me.

Everybody gets caught. Whitaker got ko'd by Wonderboy.
adesanya is not a power guy but he's got more then Wonderboy.
Karate base vs muay Thai I'll go with muay Thai. Karate is for kids.
I will however give Whitaker credit he's proven he's the best against the best.
I think whatever happens this may be fight of the year.
