Steven Peterson, DEC
Chase is tougher than he looks but I think he needs a finish to win this one. Peterson only been finished once, never been subbed.

Lauren Murphy, DEC
murphy will have a lot of success pressuring Calderwood up against the cage and controlling her in the clinch whilst working for takedowns. She's a lot more well rounded hence why i think she gets the W

Eryk Anders, TKO, R2
when Anders started grappling and used his physicality he completely took over, and this is what he needs to do again. in a straight kickboxing fight Stewart just picks him apart, he's way faster and way more technical. Anders need to utilise his wrestling and just get Stewart backed up, once he does that he can then make it a dog fight and unload on power shots since Stewart keeps his hands low and fights in the pocket which will be his downfall

I don't think Israel Adesanya is unbeatable by any stretch of the imagination. I think fights against Whittaker, Gastelum, and even Darren Till are competitive. But it's gonna take a very well-rounded and technically sound fighter to beat Izzy -- Vettori is not that.

Brandon Moreno, DEC
I think this goes 1 of 2 ways. Either Figgy gets a violent quick finish or Moreno survives, Figgy slows down and Moreno wins a decision. I think Moreno wins the decision this time.
Murphy vs. Calderwood
Joanne Calderwood, DEC
Man, I love JoJo!! But I get nervous AF whenever she's a favourite to win a fight. I have to pick her but I will not be surprised if she gets arm barred in the 1st!
Dawodu vs. Evloev
Hakeem Dawodu, DEC
Split decision with Lentz makes me revaluate Evloev. This comes down to Dawodu stopping takedowns, if he can he likely wins
Felipe vs. Collier
Carlos Felipe, DEC
BEEFY!

Israel Adesanya, TKO, R4
Vettori has skills that should trouble Adesanya like solid 5 round cardio, a strong chin and good grappling. I don't think he has the ability to put all three of those skills together like Jan did. Would've given him a better chance prior to the Holland fight but every single rangy strike Holland threw ended up hitting Vettori. Especially when for 3 rounds Jan Blachowicz went toe to toe with Adesanya in the striking which set up the takedowns for rounds 3 and 4. Don't see Vettori doing the same.
Figueiredo vs. Moreno II
Deiveson Figueiredo, TKO, R3
Figueiredo saying that he's gonna keep his hands up and avoid a brawl makes me think that Moreno is gonna either eat the big shots and win a decision by volume and wrestling or get hit by one really clean shot and go down. This fight is such a tossup and really hard to predict.
Edwards vs. Diaz
Leon Edwards, DEC
Edwards is just much better all around. I just can't possibly see Nate Diaz winning 3 of 5 rounds and so the only possible way is if he subs Leon which would be hilarious but unlikely unless Leon is gassed which probably won't happen. Could see the doctor stoppage from those elbows but going with decision.
Maia vs. Muhammad
Belal Muhammad, TKO, R3
At 43 I don't think Maia has much of a chance here. The cardio and reaction time is likely not gonna be there, and he's facing a guy that's hard to takedown. I think Belal survives the takedowns and finishes him late when he's tired.

Marvin Vettori, DEC
i don't think marvin is the better fighter at all and if past fights are any indication of how this fight will go adesanya clearly should win this fight. however im picking marvin anyways based off of my Gut Feeling. Amen

Matt Frevola, DEC
McKinney is a powerhouse and very exciting to watch, however i just think Frevola may a bit too smart for him, his striking is more cleaner, whilst McKinney's is quite sloppy, yet very powerful. i think Frevola gets the decision

Matt Frevola, TKO, R3
Am I reading this correctly? McKinney fought four days ago? This will be his third fight in five weeks? Maybe I don't know what I'm talking about, but I'm surprised that the commission approved this.

Israel Adesanya, DEC
Stylebender takes care of Vettori to set up that Whittaker fight. I’d take Whittaker if I had to choose right now (but, i don’t).
Figueiredo vs. Moreno II
Brandon Moreno, DEC
Maybe that 1st bout was a fluke and maybe Fig was sick, but... I like Moreno.
Edwards vs. Diaz
Leon Edwards, DEC
Still rooting for Nate, though.
Craig vs. Hill
Paul Craig, SUB, R2
The Bearjew puts Sweet Dreams to sleep.
Dober vs. Riddell
Drew Dober, TKO, R2
Dober gets it done.
Anders vs. Stewart II
Eryk Anders, TKO, R1
Maybe don’t knee him in the dome while he’s down this time, Dummy.
Murphy vs. Calderwood
Lauren Murphy, DEC
No idea here, honestly.
Frevola vs. McKinney
Terrance McKinney, DEC
Strictly because name sounds like “Terence McKenna”. May take a “heroic dose” on fight night in his honor (also, because Drugs).
Peterson vs. Hooper
Chase Hooper, TKO, R1
Peterson also has a BJJ background, so I’ll take the (g&p) KO and not the SUB. Fight O’the Night potential here, maybe.
Ziam vs. Vendramini
Luigi Vendramini, SUB, R2
Luigi weathers the first round storm then subs Ziam in the 2nd.
Felipe vs. Collier
Jake Collier, TKO, R1
I’ll take Collier here but definitely like the Under.
