Deiveson Figueiredo, SUB, R2
Figueiredo's ground game is just too good for Moreno to handle.
Ferguson vs. Oliveira
Tony Ferguson, TKO, R2
This should be the main event cos this fight is WILD! Ferguson has a crazy style that is unconventional and I think he will find a KO here. Defiantly FOTN!
Dern vs. Jandiroba
Mackenzie Dern, SUB, R2
Dern has a great ground game and I'm sure she'll find a submission.
Holland vs. Souza
Kevin Holland, TKO, R2
I don't this will be as close as the odds suggest. They will feel each other out in the 1st round and Holland will land a KO in the 2nd.
dos Santos vs. Gane
Ciryl Gane, TKO, R1
This will be over quickly.
Swanson vs. Pineda
Daniel Pineda, DEC
This will be close but Pineda will just edge a decision win.
Moicano vs. Fiziev
Rafael Fiziev, DEC
This will be another close fight, possibly a SD or a draw.
Quarantillo vs. Tucker
Billy Quarantillo, DEC
Quarantillo won't find a finish but will win every round.
Torres vs. Hughes
Tecia Torres, DEC
Torres will dominate this fight.
Hooper vs. Barrett
Chase Hooper, TKO, R1
A nice, spectacular KO to start this card off with!

Deiveson Figueiredo, TKO, R2
I don't see this going past two rounds. Figueiredo is the most strongest and most intense fighter in the flyweight division.
Ferguson vs. Oliveira
Charles Oliveira, SUB, R3
Glad to see Tony back but Oliveira is on a roll and has looked surpassed expectations thus far.
Dern vs. Jandiroba
Mackenzie Dern, DEC
Dern will bring her grappling and as long as she avoids too much damage she wins easily.
Holland vs. Souza
Kevin Holland, TKO, R2
Souza should never be underestimated. However, Kevin Holland is on a tear that reminds me of Anderson Silva or Jon Jones early days.
dos Santos vs. Gane
Ciryl Gane, TKO, R2
Dos Santos loves to box but he has been finished in his last three bouts. Gane is a newcomer that fights out of a great camp and will show his skills tonight.
Swanson vs. Pineda
Daniel Pineda, SUB, R1
Big fan of Cub but Pineda has the clearer path to victory.
Moicano vs. Fiziev
Rafael Fiziev, TKO, R2
Fiziev is exciting and I believe he will stop Moicano early with his power.
Quarantillo vs. Tucker
Billy Quarantillo, TKO, R2
This is a coin flip to me but I align more with the Quarantillo camp. Tucker has some flash but I don't see it being enought tonight.
Torres vs. Hughes
Tecia Torres, DEC
Love some Tecia Torres but Sam Hughes is actually a great opponent for her. I still think Torres eeks out a decision victory.
Hooper vs. Barrett
Peter Barrett, TKO, R1
I haven't bought stock in Chase Hooper as the next Sean O' Malley like most of you have. Barret is a vet and will look to counter the more aggresive Hooper.

Oppulent New Predictions
Predictions: 5 of 9 Winners, 1 Perfect, 275 Points | Tied for 2404th
I favor Tony Ferguson at -160. He has a priceless stamina. Ferguson isn't about to kick the feat.
Dern vs. Jandiroba
I fancy Mackenzie Dern at -170. She has a strong hammerlock. Dern is about to balance the rival.
Swanson vs. Pineda
I predict Daniel Pineda at -160. He has a delusional gogoplata and a cybernetic dragon sleeper. Pineda might immobilize the dissentient.
Torres vs. Hughes
I am all over Tecia Torres at -625. She has a unique indian deathlock. Torres should assault the rival.
Figueiredo vs. Moreno
I crave Deiveson Figueiredo at -330. He has a nerdy uppercut. Figueiredo could nationalize the previous pitfalls.
Quarantillo vs. Tucker
I trust Billy Quarantillo at -175. He has an original butterfly sweep. Quarantillo won't ruin the unthinkable.
Moicano vs. Fiziev
I am obsessed with Rafael Fiziev at -130. He has a radioactive kouchi gari and a zingy palm block and also a luxurious oshi-dashi. Fiziev could deny the opposition. No question!
Hooper vs. Barrett
I go for Chase Hooper at -300. He has a delusional kouchi gari and a passionate crescent kick and also a gauche bear hug. Hooper shall victimize the humiliating defeat. Clearly!
dos Santos vs. Gane
I select Ciryl Gane at -405. He has an automatic sprawl and a xerophthalmic scissors sweep. Gane will mislead the cutman. Trust me!
