Jung vs. Ige
Dan Ige
Both tough dudes. But Ige is just a bit tougher imo.
Oleinik vs. Spivak
Sergey Spivak
Aleksei, old but dangerous. Spivak may get a KO, or lose via choke.

Julian Erosa
Erosa's striking not as good as Choi's, but his grappling is better.

Bruno Silva
Bruno is a beast.
Lima vs. Brown
Dhiego Lima
Brown's at the end of his career, unfortunately.
Negumereanu vs. Camur

Virna Jandiroba
Jandiroba is bigger, and stronger.

Khaos is hittable.
Parisian vs. Martinez

Virna Jandiroba, DEC
she has the striking and bjj advantage, just think she can pull of a decision as Murata may be afraid of the grappling exchanges

You think Camur will have that much success trying to take down a Romanian wrestler? He was out wrestled by William Knight. I think Camur might be in for a long night here if he doesn't have success on the feet.

Lima vs. Brown
Dhiego Lima, TKO, R2
Lima being way younger and in his prime will win this fight. Brown's chin is a concern and i think Lima can get the KO

Vera vs. Grant
Marlon Vera, DEC
since the first fight of Chito Vera vs. Grant has spent 5 years, Vera has evolved a lot since then. After that fight Chito Vera has a 9-4 record and faced top fighters like Jose Aldo, John Lineker, Brian Kelleher, a veteran Brad Pickett and Song Yadong (not all of those fights were victories but they allowed him a great learning). For his part, Gran has a 3-2 record since 2016 and is coming off two impressive comeback victories against Martin Day and Johnathan Martinez. People put a lot of hate on Chito (especially Salty Fans of Sugar) after Vera snapped the Soft O'Malley Leg, but Chito is a warrior who doesn't pay attention to sissy trading topics or trash talking (unlike O'Malley and his fans) he goes up to the octagon. The point is that Vera has greatly improved his effectiveness in striking, his wrestling and his grappling, whereas Grant has not made big changes since 2016 (he is still a striker with a heart that goes forward and knows when to use his wrestling to dominate) . As I have said before Grant does not seem to me to be at a disadvantage in fights against Strikers since he has never been knocked out and in the last two fights he brutally knocked out his opponents despite being knocked down early in the fight. Chito Vera will probably never be a top 5 in the category, but this fight will be the test of his skills which will allow us to know if he is ready to fight against fighters like Jimmie Rivera or some other top 10 in the ranking.

Vera vs. Grant
Marlon Vera, TKO, R3
Part 2 of the Vera Grant matchup. Grant won the first matchup decisively, however, that was over 5 years ago when Marlon was 23 and Grant was 30, now Vera is 28 and Grant is 35 so they are at different stages in their careers at this point. Vera has been the busier fighter, fought the better brand of competition and has the power advantage not because he hits harder than Grant, but because Grant is FAR chinnier than Marlon. All of Grant's pro losses have come by submission and 90% of Vera pro wins are by finish. I'm picking Vera by 3rd round KO.

Jung vs. Ige
Dan Ige, DEC
Even before the elbow against Ortega, KZ was being beaten to the punch by Ortega. It could have been a bad performance or a sign that he is aging. I think it's probably the later.
Oleinik vs. Spivak
Sergey Spivak, DEC
Spivak should have the ground game necessary to avoid grappling with Oleinik and I believe that the younger and more durable Spivak is going to land the better strikes on the feet. The Tybura loss worries me a little for Spivak but Oleinik isn't gonna value control like Tybura will and will probably lead to Spivak avoiding the ground more than the Tybura.
Vera vs. Grant
Marlon Vera, SUB, R3
Chito had moments of success with the grappling in the first fight but he's improved a lot since then. I think he'll start off slow like he usually does, start having success with his kicking game and the wear on Grant on the ground and ultimately get a sub or GNP finish.
Erosa vs. Choi
Seung Woo Choi, TKO, R2
Total tossup imo, Erosa has good volume, cardio and a solid sub game that could give Choi some issues but the worry with Erosa is that chin. I think Choi who is a talented muay thai striker will end up landing on him and Erosa will go to sleep.
Turman vs. Silva
Wellington Turman, SUB, R2
I hope Silva wins, but I think he's in for a tough matchup here because of Turman's grappling. Also adding in that he hasn't fought in 2 and a half years and is now likely off of some of the substances he was on before I think he might come in rusty too.
Lima vs. Brown
Dhiego Lima, TKO, R2
Could go either way. Both guys don't really seem that durable at this point but gotta go with the younger, quicker guy. Brown showed he still has that power against Baeza but 2 straight losses and now 40 years old, things do not look great. About the age you start losing to guys you would've killed in your prime.
Negumereanu vs. Camur
Nick Negumereanu, SUB, R2
Picking Nick cause I have a Romanian background. Doubt he actually wins, looked god awful in his first UFC fight.
Jandiroba vs. Murata
Virna Jandiroba, SUB, R1
Jandiroba lost her fight against Esparza but she made Carla really sweat a few times on the ground showing she has the Jiu Jitsu to trouble a wrestler. That's MMA math but against a more inexperienced MMA fighter like Murata I say she'll get caught in a sub by someone as skillful as Jandiroba.
Semelsberger vs. Williams
Khaos Williams, TKO, R1
If Semelsberger survives the knockout or doesn't get knocked down at least 2 times he will win this fight. Problem is he tends to get a little reckless in the pocket. Khaos will probably capitalize on that.
Parisian vs. Martinez
Josh Parisian, DEC
Both guys are low level even at HW. Martinez is durable and has solid cardio for a HW but his offense is just mediocre. If Parisian can't crack that chin I still am pretty confident he can win 2 of the 3 rounds.
Silva vs. Glenn
Joaquim Silva, TKO, R2
Rick Glenn hasn't been knocked out yet but it seems like it's rather because of who he's fighting which aren't really big power punchers. Imo Silva who throws everything on every strike will make Glenn who's moving up a division pay.
Procópio vs. O'Neill
Lara Procópio, DEC
O'Neill looks to be the much more promising prospect but she's faced worse fighters. I'll guess that Procopio out grapples her to a boring decision.

- When you compare the 2 & look @ their last couple fights, it looks like they are goin in 2 different directions..Dan is hungry & starting to dominate & Zombie Is looking like either age or just isn’t hungry like Dan. Zombie didn’t look like the normal Zombie when he fought Ortega but to Ortega’s credit, he has been workin hard. But I won’t count Zombie out but I think Dan is starting to stand out in his division big time
