Predictions: 4 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 300 Points | Tied for 1828th
Rodolfo Vieira, SUB, R1
Vieira got messed up before his submission W in his debut. Not the greatest striking in the world. Hernandez is an okay prop. Still saying Vieira by submission. Love the price on Anthony though :/
Akhmedov vs. Breese
Omari Akhmedov, DEC
Omari by dull clinch grind with some nice double leg takedowns mixed in.
Lentz vs. Grundy
Nik Lentz, DEC
Back and fourth on this one.
Correia vs. Wu
Yanan Wu, DEC
Bethe did a lot for women's MMA and I'm sad to see her go but Wu will outclass her.

Calvin Kattar, DEC
Truly torn on this fight. These are all just early predictions. Very likely they're all going to change once we get closer to fight week. Kattar is as technical as they come and shines when he isn't being threatened by pointfighting/legkickers. This is a match-up that favors both of the competitors. They love to come forward, apply pressure, cut off the cage against their opps. Max throws leg kicks but they're more meaningful than to just collect points. He will be more than happy to oblige Kattar and box with him. Both suits their strong points. 5 rounder obviously in my eyes favors Max heavily. His volume and pace doesn't drop significantly. Where as Kattar's 5 round pace vs Ige wasn't high volume, looked like he was more worried about just coasting and conditioning himself to last the 5. We seen him conserve energy in the middle rounds and pick it up slightly again in the 4th and 5th. At least from my memory he did. This is my FOTN easily. Kattar will enjoy a 3 in reach advantage here. But Max's movement, gliding in and out of the pocket, switch stances may cause some issue's for Kattar. Giving different looks from south/orthodox stances. Max has only really taking a massive amount of damage vs Porier @ LW. Durability issue's are pretty much nonexistent for him. He hasn't been dropped in his whole professional career. I do like Kattar's boxing. I think him being in the pocket vs Max will shine light on how good his hands, head movement, slip and rips truly are. BIG BIG BIG step up in competition for Kattar but I'm going to lean that way early. I think him popping his jab throughout this whole fight and following it up with whatever he decides to will be enough to grab a decision win.
Simón vs. Kelleher
Brian Kelleher, TKO, R2
I think kelleher can catch Simon on the chin while they're standing. We've seen him hurt by a 50 year old retired skateboarder. I think Kelleher's hands are crisp. Simon's chainwrestling could be nullified later on as the fight goes giving the advantage to Kelleher.
Elliott vs. Espinosa
Tim Elliott, SUB, R2
Elliot is just a better fighter who put on better performances than Espinoza.
Vieira vs. Hernandez
Rodolfo Vieira, SUB, R1
Submission prop all day.
Akhmedov vs. Breese
Omari Akhmedov, DEC
Akhmedov looked like **** against Weidman man. His cardio issues is what worries me even when he has success early on in this fight it can be a major issue. But even later in the fight will Breese be able to capitalize on the compromised gas tank of Akhmedov? Enough to get a win and not just win a roudn when he's down 2-0? I'll side with the grappler until I watch more tape.
Moras vs. Melo
Sarah Moras, DEC
I had my money on Moras in a 7 leg parlay that cashed out with her fight being cancelled. Could've netted me big amount and I'm sad that it was cancelled. This is terrible and melo could sub her. But I'll still side with the cheesecake on this one. WMMA sucks.
Kilburn vs. Lingo
Austin Lingo, SUB, R2
Lingo for the submission. Just a guess.
Peña vs. McMann
Julianna Peña, SUB, R2
mcmann isn't that good. Pena might just beat the **** out her and look like a worldclass striker on the feet. lmao plus mcmann is 40.

Yanan Wu, DEC
HAPPY RETIREMENT, BETHE!!!!!

Max Holloway, DEC
One of those fights where both are too good to be stopped and will end up going the distance. I feel that both certainly have the cardio to last the full 5 rounds so I'm sure it will go to a decision and in that case, Max Holloway should get it, I'd say he wins at least 4 of the 5 rounds if not all of them. A UD for Max Holloway.

Peña vs. McMann

Potential FOTN! Obviously the Holloway VS Kattar fight is the best match up but I think this one could be surprisingly interesting and certainly deserves a spot higher up on the card.
