Predictions: 9 of 12 Winners, 5 Perfect, 680 Points | Tied for 85th
Kayla Harrison, SUB, R1
TKO or Sub is the real question.
Pettis vs. Manfio
Anthony Pettis, DEC
Manfio isn't gonna put pressure on Pettis, I don't see him lookin bad here but he did take a good amount of damage not that long ago.
Palmer vs. Khaybulaev
Lance Palmer, DEC
Changed my pick just to be different, tossup fight if i've ever seen one. Either Khaybulaev uses his wrestling and tunes Palmer up on the feet on Palmer lays on him for 3 rounds and his top control is just too heavy.
Goltsov vs. Sayles
Denis Goltsov, TKO, R3
Could be an upset but I think Sayles partially looked so good last time out because Usman was so bad.
Ferreira vs. Seumanutafa
Renan Ferreira, TKO, R1
Proably a statement victory.
Young vs. Morais
Mariana Morais, DEC
Morais has fought some UFC girls on the Brazilian regional scene, I just have a feeling she looks much better this fight.
Abreu vs. Jones
Klidson Abreu, SUB, R2
Why is Klidson moving up? Should've moved down cause he wasn't taking a punch all that well at 205. Maybe at a lower level his jiu jitsu is much more dominant.

Kayla Harrison, TKO, R1
Dandois has nothing to look for at 155 pounds, where she performed best at 145 pounds (especially early in her career and during her time in Invicta). The truth is there is not much to analyze although most of Dandois victories come from submissions (especially triangle choke), Harrison is superior in the takedown game (due to his pedigree in Judo) and once in the top position he can finish with ground and pound, arm-triangle choke or armbar. In MMA a single punch can change everything but Dandois showed terrible striking in her last fight. This fight is important to Harrison's record as Dandois has victories over Megan Anderson, Daria Ibragimova, Marloes Coenen, Jorina Baars (all of whom are prominent names in female combat sports).
Pettis vs. Manfio
Anthony Pettis, DEC
The Collard-Pettis fight was one-sided, but Showtime almost got a comeback finish in the final round. Pettis after losing to RDA became a fighter with inconsistent performance: close wins, losses where he looked good to a certain extent, losses where he was completely dominated and also impressive wins like against Thompson or Chiesa. In general, Pettis tends to alter these kinds of results and considers that his loss to Collard will probably allow Pettis to bounce back. I doubt that Manfio will keep pressure on Pettis during the 3 rounds, besides Pettis when given space can work very well with combinations.
Goltsov vs. Sayles
Denis Goltsov, TKO, R2
I chose Sayles to defeat Mohammed Usman, because the brother of the UFC Welterweight champion despite being in a better gym is seeing certain aspects of the fight and had not faced a level of Opposition corresponding to that in PFL . But this time his opponent is Goltsov who despite being younger has much more experience and has achieved victories over fighters like Jared Rosholt and Satashi Ishii. The strategy to be followed by the Russian is very clear and this leads to the chances of an upset being unlikely.
Abreu vs. Jones
Klidson Abreu, SUB, R2
I think that Klidson Abreu's weight class change may be related to his TKO loss to Jamahal Hill by body strikes, stopping cutting weight may be beneficial for Abreu's resistance to body strikes. What led me to choose Abreu are 3 reasons: First, the fact that it is not the first time he has fought in Heavyweight (performing very well in the past in the HW), Segundo Abreu has faced much greater opposition and obtained finishes over Timo Feucht, Viktor Nemkov, Anton Vyazigin and Johny Walker in the past. and Finally Jones has been finished multiple times in both the HW and LHW, I consider that Jamelle Jones can be dangerous at the beginning of the fight but Abreu has the weapons and the experience to prevail in this fight.

Jamelle Jones by finish
Predictions: 9 of 10 Winners, 3 Perfect, 605 Points | Tied for 283rd
Jamelle Jones by KO/TKO, round 2
Abreu didn't have a chin at LHW. He's the more well rounded fighter and more experienced but he truthfully doesn't have an huge advantage over Jones anywhere. Anyone who thinks this is immediately Abreu's fight if it goes to the ground have done ZERO research on Jamelle Jones. This guy was a D1 quality wrestler who wrestled D2 because of academics. He's literally got one of the only spladle finishes in the history of MMA. Jamelle Jones isn't going to shy away from the grappling/BJJ at all.
Abreu has some decent wins on his record in Sam Alvey and Viktor Nemkov. He also has a win over Johnny Walker early in both their careers; that fight would go much differently today. I know he's fought at heavyweight before but gaining 45-50lbs since your last fight is a lot. Jamelle has been walking around at 230-240 for awhile. Jones last two losses were at LHW to guys currently on the UFC roster. He's surrounded himself with great coaches (a big reason why he's now a HW) and has worked a ton on his boxing the last two years.
Full disclosure time: I've known Jamelle for 15 years, so this is the most homer pick I'll probably ever make. I first met him as a HS freshman at wrestling practice. Want to know who else was on our team? Olympic gold medalist Jordan Burroughs.

Harrison vs. Dandois
Harrison by KO round 1
Ground and pound.
Pettis vs. Manfio
Pettis by decision
Trying not to read to much into his last fight.
Palmer vs. Khaybulaev
Khaybulaev by decision
This is going to be a mirror image of Palmers last night. The only exception being I think he has a higher chance of getting finished this time.
Goltsov vs. Sayles
Goltstov by decision
Sayles is a live dog but Goltsov just to big a step up in competition. Torn whether Sayles looked good in his last fight or whether Usman is really that bad. I unfortunately lean towards the latter. While a nice story, it's always good to remember that Sayles is already 40.
Cappelozza vs. De Reese
Cappelozza KO/TKO round 1
If this fight lasts more than a minute I'll be blown away.
Pachecho vs Kolesynk
Pachecho by KO
Won't be close.
Delija vs. Cole
Delija by decision
Hard for me to pick a finisher like Cole who's coming in with a 5in reach and 7in height disadvantage; I say this as someone who's not impressed by Delija at all.
Ferreira vs. Seumanutafa
Ferreira by finish
No doubt.

Groundbreaking New Predictions
Predictions: 9 of 12 Winners, 3 Perfect, 525 Points | Tied for 531st
I desire Renan Ferreira at -455. He has a zippy double knife hand block. Ferreira will warp the counteragent.
Harrison vs. Dandois
I am sticking with Kayla Harrison at -4000. She has a militant bear hug. Harrison must finish the TV audience.
Delija vs. Cole
I am obsessed with Ante Delija at -400. He has a killer reverse frankensteiner. Delija is about to overpower the achievement. Beep boop!
Pacheco vs. Kolesnyk
I am all about Larissa Pacheco at -650. She has a wretched oshi-dashi and a proficient tai otoshi. Pacheco will best the cycle.
Fabian vs. Pajić
I am loyal to Genah Fabian at -275. She has a delicious double leg flapjack. Fabian should flaunt the achievement.
Guardado vs. Sanchez
I choose Taylor Guardado at -150. She has an outrageous kouchi gari. Guardado won't sabotage the adversary. Trust me!
Young vs. Morais
I have a crush on Kaitlin Young at -225. She has a yappy facebuster and a tremendous clavicle crusher. Young shall quash the natural order. For sure!
Abreu vs. Jones
I tap Klidson Abreu at -190. He has a quintessential spinning back elbow. Abreu ought to cheat the achievement.
Palmer vs. Khaybulaev
I like Movlid Khaybulaev at -140. He has a nasty piledriver and a zingy kimura and also a groundbreaking dragon sleeper. Khaybulaev can usurp the humiliating defeat.
Pettis vs. Manfio
I desire Anthony Pettis at -200. He has a delicious double leg flapjack and a hypersonic hiza guruma. Pettis must caress the TV audience.
Cappelozza vs. DeReese
I am all about Bruno Henrique Cappelozza at -265. He has a glamorous overhand and a gifted diet and also a faux side kick to the throat. Cappelozza will likely grapple the opposing forces.
Goltsov vs. Sayles
I am taking Denis Goltsov at -250. He has a brash crucifix and a noble double wrist lock. Goltsov is about to whack the adversary.
