Łukasz Sudolski
poterya record is absolutely deceiving, 19-2 against only bums, can't believe he can get a contract with ufc

Caio Borralho, DEC
Jeffery will feel self concious holding to victory in front of Dana. Also he's not a finishing threat here. Caio does slightly more and gets the judges' favour here. New Brazillian Contender Series Darling right here folks.

Łukasz Sudolski, TKO, R2
Sudolski is a complete fighter with a good boxing and better grappling.
Gaxhja vs. Duncan
Chris Duncan, DEC
Duncan looks much bigger than Gaxhja and he's more experienced but Gaxhja has the speed advantage in the striking. However Gaxhja never faces good.competion and probably he will make mistakes.
Jeffery vs. Borralho
Caio Borralho, SUB, R2
Jeffery faces way better competition but Borralho has a good BJJ and Jeffery struggles vs Grapplers. In add to Borralho a pretty decent striking
Almeida vs. Zellhuber
Daniel Zellhuber, DEC
Almeida tends to gass out. And Zellhuber is a complete and dangerous fighter by his age, and specially durable
Kuniev vs. Santos
Rizvan Kuniev, DEC
Kuniev is a complete fighter and looking videos of the opponents of Santos... He never fought really good competition. So I think that Kuniev will be dominant in this fight

Alway go with the undefeated guy

Caio Borralho, SUB, R2
Like someone said previously, Jeffrey has definitely faced the better competition by miles. But Caio has good bjj and decent striking. Was tempted to pull the trigger on Jeffery earlier, but he has average striking and mostly relies on his wrestling and cardio to win fights. Could see either winning this but I’ll take caio seems to have more paths to victory. No bets on this fight but if Jeffery gets a contract I’ll definitely be fading him in the UFC

Experience should win here
Almeida vs. Zellhuber
Daniel Zellhuber, DEC
I'll take the taller lengthy fighter on this but Almeida looks like he's not ******* around either at weigh ins, still think he'll have to ground his opponent to win.
Kuniev vs. Santos
Rizvan Kuniev, TKO, R1
Just gonna leave this **** alone I like Brazilian but seems all the money is on the Dagestan fighter

Hopefully Chris can afford to stay in Vegas for a few weeks as I'm sure the UFC will offer him a spot on an upcoming Contender Series

Predictions: 3 of 4 Winners, 1 Perfect, 205 Points | Tied for 41st with 4 others
- Jeffrey is tough, has losses to Sean Brady and Brendan Allen, but has wins over Andre Petroski and Collin Huckbody. I think he grinds out a unanimous decision.
Gaxjha vs Duncan
- Duncan has finished his last 7 fights in a row, 3 of them being in Bellator. Gaxhja hasn’t fought in 2 and a half years. Late 1st round KO for Duncan.
Kuniev vs Santos
- Kuniev has fought MUCH better competition, Santos last 4 opponents are a combined 1-30, he’s a can crusher. Santos may be able hang in for a round or 2, so I’m going Kuniev 2nd round KO.

Chris Duncan, TKO, R1
A 7-0 crispy puncher vs a guy weighing in 4 LBs overweight for a life changing opportunity... this was a lock
Jeffery vs. Borralho
Aaron Jeffery, TKO, R3
I realllllyyyyyy had Jeffery locked in until I watch Caio and this is as unpickable as they come. I think Caio is better but AJ brings pace and pressure that usually breaks men. I'll stick with AJ
Almeida vs. Zellhuber
Lucas Almeida, TKO, R2
Golden Boy was fighting in bummy Mexican leagues against guys with basically no record. I think Almeida breaks this kid tho Zellhuber has promise
Kuniev vs. Santos
Edivan Santos, TKO, R1
I truly think Kuniev is an average fat holder with no real offense to fear and Edivan is only beating bums. Rizvan should win but I will be fading him in the UFC if he gets a contract. With that being said I'm just going to fade him now haha
