Armen Petrosyan, TKO, R1
The inactivity from Kolev the main factor here.

Solomon Renfro, TKO, R1
Renfro's speed will be the difference. Parsons has demonstrated he has a good chin, he might test Renfro's this fight.

Ill take Armen. Seems to be the slightly better fighter, has been more active, and fought tougher competition

Piera Rodriguez, TKO, R2
Piera began his career at the UCC, trained and lived in Panama for many years. In her last fight she beat Svetlana Gotsyk a Ukrainian fighter from the American Top Team with a very good record (13-4) and with the experience of having faced fighters like Weili Zhang, Lena Ovchynnikova and Magdaléna Šormová (2x). As Machado is a Striker with a high percentage of KO, Rodriguez must be cautious but make respect in striking to bring the fight to the ground and seek to finish with ground and pound. This week may be the biggest for MMA in my country with the possibility of Piera landing a contract in the UFC, as well as the fight on Saturday of Joselyne Edwards against Jessica Rose-Clark
