Petr Yan, DEC
Currently looks like I got the best betting odds on Petr Yan -107 a couple days ago. He opened -145, dropped slowly to -107 and now we’re seeing a buyback on Yan who is currently -120. We’ll see what he closes at tomorrow night but looks like I got some great closing line value (CLV) as I’m expecting Yan to close -140 or more. The CLV won’t matter if Yan doesn’t win the fight.

Jan Błachowicz, SUB, R3
I just like Jan better, though Izzy just is super good. (also i had a dream where this fight plays out very similary to SOnnen vs Silva 1 so make of that what you will)
Nunes vs. Anderson
Amanda Nunes, SUB, R1
I just Nunes is a different level (I will be putting a cheeky one on Anderson though)
Yan vs. Sterling
Aljamain Sterling, SUB, R1
I really like both of these two, i think Sterling has more ways to win and has fought better competiton than Yan.
Makhachev vs. Dober
Islam Makhachev, SUB, R1
I like Dober but he is kinda weak on the ground and i see Makachev exploiting this
Santos vs. Rakić
Aleksandar Rakić, DEC
super close fight
Phillips vs. Song
Yadong Song, TKO, R2
i like Phillips and i like Yadong, i like Yadong more
Benavidez vs. Askarov
Askar Askarov, DEC
Benavidez is coming off the beating of a life time, he was always known for being tricky to hold down, and Askar needs to take him down or he is at a significant disadvantage, this is a really tough fight for both but i think im going to go with
Kara-France vs. Bontorin
Rogério Bontorin, SUB, R1
not entirely sold on France Bontorin has a clear grappling advantage.

Gotta give it to Lemos. It looks like Souza is more interested in video games; We'll see.
