I don't get why they just sign Luana Pinhera and Danny Sabillio If they want them so badly in the UFC, Just sign then. Odds wise they're opponent have no chance(+300) and (+600) . Im not a fan of this type of matchmaking unless guys are on a 3+ lost streak and u want to kept them around. I want competive matchup/

very interesting seeing two former CFFC champs face off against each other.    Definitely think Motta gets the win.   was at his last fight he looked good.

hope you like wrestling

Pinheiro vs. Frausto
Luana Pinheiro, SUB, R1
lookin like a mismatch on tape, especially once this hits the mat. Frausto punches like she's underwater and backs up after throwing combos, opening her up for being taken down.

Sabatello vs. Moore
Danny Sabatello, SUB, R2
how bout some more wrestlin?

Ksiazkiewicz vs. Sousa
Mariusz Ksiazkiewicz, SUB, R2
This is a dangerous fight. These are probably two of the best contender series fighters this year. At least on paper Sousa should be the favorite. But Mariusz is the slightly bigger fighter and this will be a primarily grappling heavy fight. I'll take the Polish Dog with extra mustard.

Santana vs. Levy
Shaheen Santana, DEC
Shaheen is a dog at the moment which is awesome. I see him picking up a clear UD. Maybe not getting the signing, but I think this is his fight 8/10 times.

Lowry vs. Motta
Nikolas Motta, DEC
Another hard one to call. No bet, but Motta looks better in the tape I've watched, but he can definitely get caught and he hasn't really fixed that hole from what I've seen. Two very good offensive fighters here.

Pinheiro vs. Frausto
Stephanie Frausto, DEC
Here's my upset pick lol. Frausto trains with savages for WMMA and Pinheiro's fights have been less than impressive. I think Pinheiro should be a favorite but this big of gap is just idiotic.

Sabatello vs. Moore
Danny Sabatello, SUB, R1
TD. Advance. Sub. Lock.

I feel like this might end in the first round!

Santana vs. Levy
Shaheen Santana, SUB, R2
I like Santana here based on Levy not being his original opponent and even through they weren't LFA opponents, I still think Santana fought maybe just a little bit better competition.

Lowry vs. Motta
Nikolas Motta, TKO, R1
I'm going with Motta because he currently holds the CFFC title but still a toss up lol

Pinheiro vs. Frausto
Luana Pinheiro, SUB, R2
This seems a bit closer then the odds suggest but what do i know its WMMA

It's like Austin Springer vs Giga Chikadze. They wanted Giga and he was a huge favor to win that fight. But, Austin ruined that plan. Austin ended up weathering the storm and submitting Giga late in the fight. They ended up bringing in Giga after he won his next 2 fights anyway.

I think they take the gamble and use it as an opportunity to build a fan base before they give them an official UFC fight.

Kinky New Predictions

Predictions: 5 of 5 Winners, 3 Perfect, 325 Points   |   1st Place

Santana vs. Levy
I am taking Natan Levy at -135. He has a homemade counter left and an eccentric chin. Levy will likely escape the crowd noise.

Sabatello vs. Moore
I tap Danny Sabatello at -650. He has a resilient sprawl and an amoral touch of death. Sabatello could usurp the senses.

Ksiazkiewicz vs. Sousa
I am all over Mário Sousa at -145. He has an exhaustive randleplex and a noble gogoplata. Sousa ought to manipulate the opposing forces.

Lowry vs. Motta
I elect Nikolas Motta at -220. He has a maniacal tsuri-dashi and a kinky double leg and also a creative fight IQ. Motta could perform the masterpiece.

Pinheiro vs. Frausto
I am sniffing Luana Pinheiro at -420. She has a trendy character and a reliable mindset. Pinheiro can blend the masterpiece.
