After looking at the weigh ins and sizes I think marques is gonna do exactly what he did to m rod and take down kennedy and either get a sub or decision, barcelos to win, ike Villanueva is a nice price at +165 as I think he's gonna ko prachnio, boser and osp same height I feel boser will piece him up, fili looks ready to put in a performance

Volkov is huge

Gane vs. Volkov
Ciryl Gane, DEC
Gane is so good with his footwork and defence that Volkov will have a hard time trying to pressure him and landing clean. Gane has a very clear speed advantage too in this fight and his boxing will cause Volkov problems. Volkov's boxing defence is pretty poor so Gane can take advantage of that. Volkov has very dangerous kicks, but with Gane's distance management and IQ i think he can avoid most of them, stick on the outside and dart in and out when he needs too, being too quick for Volkov

Predictions: 8 of 13 Winners, 4 Perfect, 580 Points   |   Tied for 327th

Gane vs. Volkov
Ciryl Gane, DEC
Both guys are very good but I’m leaning towards Gane here. Gane is going to throw some massive leg kicks and it’s going to destroy Volkov. Volkov has slow movements and Gane is just better almost everywhere.

St. Preux vs. Boser
Tanner Boser, TKO, R2
Is Boser good? We don’t really know yet but as much as I want OSP to win this I think Boser catches him with something. OSP doesn’t seem to excited to be fighting back at heavyweight again but did it because Boser isn’t a big heavyweight.

Barcelos vs. Valiev
Raoni Barcelos, TKO, R2
Barcelos is so underrated. He has some nasty hands and I would not be shocked if he knocks Valiev out.

Fili vs. Pineda
Andre Fili, TKO, R2
This fight will be fireworks. Pineda keeps his hands way too low and Fili will finish him because of that.

Dalby vs. Means
Tim Means, DEC
This fight will be extremely close but I think Means is going to throw more and land the better shots.

Moicano vs. Herbert
Renato Moicano, SUB, R1
Moicano is very good. He has a suspect chin but getting knocked out by guys like Aldo, TKZ, etc, isn’t that bad. Moicano is gonna get this to the ground early and seconds later it’ll be over.

Marques vs. Nzechukwu
Kennedy Nzechukwu, TKO, R1
Both guys suck but Nzechukwu will knock Marques out pretty easily. Marques will shoot for a takedown and get clipped.

Prazeres vs. Rakhmonov
Shavkat Rakhmonov, DEC
Prazeres is no joke but Shavkat is a top-notch prospect and will get the job done.

Alves vs. Wells
Jeremiah Wells, TKO, R2
This fight will also be fireworks and I think Wells pulls off the upset. Alves has awful cardio and will get knocked out because of that.

Prachnio vs. Villanueva
Ike Villanueva, TKO, R1
Prachnio is one of the worst fighters on the roster. Ike isn’t much better but he can throw bombs. Ike will knock Marcin out.

Avila vs. Stoliarenko
Julia Avila, DEC
Avila will win an easy decision as long as she can stay away from the Stoliarenko arm bar.

Rosa vs. Jaynes
Justin Jaynes, TKO, R1
Jaynes is a one round fighter but that’s all he is going to need here. Rosa sucks.

Medeiros vs. Hadžović
Yancy Medeiros, DEC
Medeiros has a suspect chin as well but he has fought so many tough guys. This fight is going to be very close but Medeiros should be able to get it done here.

Predictions: 7 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 490 Points   |   Tied for 1081st

Gane vs. Volkov
Alexander Volkov, TKO, R4
Volkov has been looking better than ever in these recent fights, and I think he'll be able to accumulate damage onto Gane and take him to deep waters to drown him.

St. Preux vs. Boser
Tanner Boser, TKO, R2
OSP looked like dog**** at heavyweight last time, it really slowed him down. Boser is a very fast heavyweight with high volume so I think it will just be a matter of time until the ref has to step in

Fili vs. Pineda
Andre Fili, TKO, R2
If Pineda shows up, unlike that last fight, Fili is getting KO'd. But Pineda looked terrible against Swanson, like he wasn't putting in effort to win.

Prazeres vs. Rakhmonov
Shavkat Rakhmonov, TKO, R2
How long until Rakhmonov is ranked?

Alves vs. Wells
Warlley Alves, TKO, R1
Alves is so inconsistent but if he shows up he should be a level above Wells

Prachnio vs. Villanueva
Marcin Prachnio, TKO, R2
Hope Prachnio loses, those judges robbed Rountree

Rosa vs. Jaynes
Charles Rosa, SUB, R2
Jaynes hits hard and that's about it. Anyone who's not so stupid that they stand there and take it on the chin can win.

Medeiros vs. Hadžović
Damir Hadžović, TKO, R2
No joke, I thought Medeiros was in bareknuckle fc now. They should cut both of these guys after this fight

Rosa vs. Jaynes
Charles Rosa, SUB, R2
If Jaynes is willing to bet his entire check on himself to win this and keep his UFC contract, it makes me want to bet on him too. But I can't make an emotional pick.

Gane vs. Volkov
Ciryl Gane, DEC
Volkov used to fight lean and weighed around 245-255 but in the last couple of fights, he has been weighing in at 265. I thought it would affect his cardio and output but no, I was wrong. With that said, both are the best of the best in the heavyweight division. Both have excellent stand up game but overall skill wise, I would give Gane the advantage cos he has a more versatile arsenal which is rare for a heavyweight fighter. Gane has shown that he can be patient, smart with good fight IQ in his last fight against Rozenstruik. He was calculated with the risk and did not bum rush searching for the KO as Rozenstruik is a counter striker primarily. For a guy who is only 8-0 he has proven that he is a legit contender. I got Gane via decision. Maybe even a split 48-47 decision.

St. Preux vs. Boser
Tanner Boser, DEC
This is gonna be a sloppy fight... Unless st preux brings the fight, Boser will simply fight outside and point fight winning the rounds. For me, this isn't a worthy Co main event

Barcelos vs. Valiev
Raoni Barcelos, TKO, R2
Barcelos is like Aldo when he was in his prime. Dude is a straight up killer. Non stop tiring pace that can overwhelm his opponents.

Fili vs. Pineda
Andre Fili, DEC
Pineda goes hard in round 1.. so expecting the veteran Fili to survive the 1st round barrage which he should as he has shown in his past performance against elite strikers like Michael Johnson. Both fighters are durable so I see this going to a decision. I got the veteran Fili to fight smart by mixing in takedowns as well to win the rounds.

Dalby vs. Means
Tim Means, TKO, R3
Means has a better gas tank and more volume over Dalby. Either a decision or a late finish for Means.

Moicano vs. Herbert
Renato Moicano, SUB, R2
Moicano should keep it on the feet in round 1. And surprise the excellent stand up fighter in Jai Herbert with a takedown in round 2 which he won't see coming since there was no takedown attempt in the 1st round. That should be his strategy. But if he tries to go punch for punch, kick for kick for the full 15 minutes, Herbert has a good chance to win.

Marques vs. Nzechukwu
Danilo Marques, SUB, R1
Nzechukwu won against Ulberg who is fairly new as a pro MMA fighter. Not to take away from his great comeback victory, but Ulberg is green. I got Marques via submission.

Prazeres vs. Rakhmonov
Shavkat Rakhmonov, TKO, R2
David vs Goliath lol Shavkat is a bright prospect to look out for in the welterweight division. Baeza lost to Ponzinibio in an epic showdown, Sean Brady is gonna be fighting Kevin Lee soon. Man welterweight division is stacked.

Prachnio vs. Villanueva
Ike Villanueva, TKO, R2
Villanueva looked good in his last KO victory at 205 after coming down from heavyweight. Expecting Villanueva to put a good combo together to get the finish.
