Predictions: 7 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 455 Points | Tied for 134th
Claressa Shields, TKO, R1
Tempted to pick Elkin because only 8% are doing so and Shields is most likely done if it hits the ground but I just can't see Elkin having much success closing distance on Shields. Shields is fighting the best female boxers in the world with some of the best boxing defense which I believe leads to less finishes. Someone like Elkin would get battered if this stays on the feet.
Collard vs. Lutterbach
Joilton Lutterbach, SUB, R2
Collard comes from a wrestling background but his one MMA loss since 2015 was to a natural 145er and a grappler in Darrick Miner. If Lutterbach can get this fight to the ground I wouldn't be surprised if he can muster up a choke.
Jenkins vs. Moffett
Bubba Jenkins, DEC
Bubba by wrestling. I really don't see Moffett catching him in a choke.
Loughnane vs. Diamond
Brendan Loughnane, DEC
Diamond's striking looked questionable last time out and now he's facing a much better overall fighter. Loughnane by 30-27 decision.
Schulte vs. Martinez
Natan Schulte, DEC
Better grappler and I believe he's gonna outpoint him on the feet too because of the low kicks.
Held vs. Aubin-Mercier
Marcin Held, DEC
Fight looks a lot like Held's last fight I believe. Held has better volume with that jab and low kicks and he'll get the best of OAM as long as he doesn't gas out.
Aliev vs. Radzhabov
Loik Radzhabov, DEC
Predicting a close decision here, I think Radzabov has the skills to control the wrestling and outpoint him on the feet with potentially some clinch control. Aliev will be better at range but I think Loik will close the distance well.
Moraes vs. Stirn
Sheymon Moraes, TKO, R2
Looked at Stirn's fights and he's primarily a wrestler. Sheymon can't really wrestle but I think he's gonna be able to hurt this guy on the feet. The difference in the level of competition is staggering.
Wade vs. Ospanov
Chris Wade, DEC
Either Ospanov does something crazy or Wade wrestlers for a 3 round boring decision.

Sheymon Moraes, DEC
Oh this sucks! I wanted Khaybulaev to get an easy KO, and now he got rebooked lol. With that said, Moraes probably gets a decision. Stirn's out of Ground Control Academy. But, having missed weight, how's that cardio gonna hold up? I doubt he controls Moraes on the ground for 3 rounds.

Claressa Shields, DEC
My fear is TRex gets taken down and layed on for 3 rounds. I never thought she was an intelligent boxer but always the most athletic competitor in the ring. She does take corner instruction well so maybe she can improve all the other aspects of her game to go with the striking, if she’s been getting good coaching. But she might struggle. I hope there is a fire fight and she can throw bombs. They gave her a can, but that can has been working ground game..... In the end I see TRex being to athletic and strong to be controlled and throws volume for 15 minutes for a unanimous decision.

Sheymon Moraes, TKO, R2
With Stirn's rough weigh cut and Moraes' gargantuan experience advantage, I'd be surprised if Stirn took the W here, but if he did I'd be the first one to cheer his victory

Ultimate New Predictions
Predictions: 6 of 8 Winners, 4 Perfect, 400 Points | Tied for 401st
I adopt Marcin Held at -150. He has a reliable bear hug. Held must yank the previous pitfalls. Easy!
Moraes vs. Stirn
I elect Sheymon Moraes at -285. He has an eccentric attitude. Moraes ought to tweak the feat. Money in the bank!
Schulte vs. Martinez
I am sticking with Natan Schulte at -355. He has a groundbreaking hane goshi. Schulte ought to prove the deed.
Jenkins vs. Moffett
I am obsessed with Bubba Jenkins at -260. He has a twisted oshi-dashi. Jenkins is about to cheat the foe.
Collard vs. Lutterbach
I predict Clay Collard at -250. He has a faux clawhold and an incredible reverse side kick. Collard ought to realign the adversary.
Loughnane vs. Diamond
I am enamored with Brendan Loughnane at -390. He has a wacky hiza guruma and a brilliant suplex. Loughnane is gonna captivate the foe. Believe in yourself!
Aliev vs. Radzhabov
I am going with Akhmed Aliev at -200. He has a maladapted crotch-hold. Aliev might attempt the opposing forces.
Shields vs. Elkin
I can't get enough of Claressa Shields at -220. She has a villainous vulcan nerve pinch and a uppity anaconda. Shields might realign the deed.

4 legger +305! Feeling pretty confident in it, only Jenkins giving me vibes he could lose. Moffett could wrap him up with a sub cuz Jenkins has been subbed twice and finished in all 4 of his losses.
