You’re saying they can’t but they did..so clearly they can. I believe you mean shouldn’t. That’s not the conversation I’m having. Cause guess  what, they can and they did

So with the point taken.
R1: 10-9 Brito
R2: 10-9 Brito
and they seemed to have given round 3 10-10, so with one point removed.
It's 29-28 Brito. That makes sense to me because nothing happened in the third.

Rebook Altamirano, Candelario, Lopes and Brito later down the season imo. Very beginning, would be nice to see how much they improve. But not against eachother again, def opponents.

Apparently Azamat is a beast!!! I'm a little concerned about his cardio tho, always am with guys with tonnes of 1st round finishes.
Scheffel has a funky record but I watched him on those Brazil Future MMA shows a couple of times and he's decent.

I do not expect Lopes to get the contract because the UFC is ran by cheap bastards but they surprise me sometimes
