Disappointed the Wilson vs. Borics fight is off, was the most exciting fight on the card. This isn't the first time Jay Jay missed weight either wonder what Bellator's gonna do with him.

I have a feeling that either Aguiar or Hamel is going to get an upset win tonight.  I just don't know which one, still researching right now.

Aguiar should win IMO. Not an expert on him but I don't see him getting grounded or subbed by Johnson.

Aguiar's record is very suspect, half those guys don't have records posted and lots of -500 records on there. Haven't watched any tape but Johnson's 2 losses are aging pretty well, I think he wins here.

Kongo vs. Kharitonov
Cheick Kongo, DEC
At this point, I don't trust either of them... But goddamn.. Cheick Kongo irritates me. He has these good performances, then he holds back for the next 4 fights. And that irritates me. Like dude. Go. Pull the trigger.

Uppity New Predictions

Predictions: 6 of 9 Winners, 1 Perfect, 325 Points   |   Tied for 818th

Moegenburg vs. Schoenfelder
I feel disposed to Bailey Schoenfelder at -550. He has a sincere fight IQ. Schoenfelder is about to quarantine the performance.

Golm vs. Swanson
I believe in Marcelo Golm at -515. He has a captivating reverse side kick. Golm isn't about to guess the crowd noise.

Kongo vs. Kharitonov
I prefer Sergei Kharitonov at -130. He has an excellent right hand. Kharitonov ought to kiss the deed. Oss!

Storley vs. Schiro
I choose Logan Storley at -3000. He has a talented five point palm exploding heart technique. Storley can destroy the cage. Never fails!

Johnson vs. Fisher
I am sticking with Duane Johnson at -450. He has a scintillating check hook. Johnson shall highlight the performance.

Colgan vs. Simons
I select Archie Colgan at -1100. He has a luxurious anaconda. Colgan won't fight the performance.

Lugo vs. Lee
I want Jornel Lugo at -160. He has a hot elevator hook sweep. Lugo will orchestrate the natural order.

Hamel vs. Logan
I lean towards Bryce Logan at -185. He has a meritorious crucifix and a weak crotch-hold and also a macabre fallaway moonsault slam. Logan can yank the counteragent.

Aguiar vs. Johnson
I adopt Taylor Johnson at -250. He has an exotic dim mak and an original fight IQ and also a heavenly suplex. Johnson should bury the chosen one.

Kongo vs. Kharitonov
Kongo is old but will probably survive 3 rounds; don't see him getting finished. 

Storley vs. Schiro
I actually like Schiro a lot but this is just an insane task for your first Bellator fight. He's going to get rag-dolled and Ill be really surprised if he makes it to the 2nd.

Golm vs. Swanson
Just gonna be bombs being thrown. Golm via ground and pound. Respect to Swanson though; great nickname, even better belly.

Lugo vs. Lee
LOCK

Aguiar vs. Johnson
Will probably be close for at least a round or two. I like Johnson by decision or late sub. 

Hamel vs. Logan
Logan is due for a finish but probably takes this via decision. Hamel last two fights were crazy tough and could make this close. I'll take the more experienced fighter here. 

Colgan vs. Simons
Honestly don't know a ton about either fighter. Going with consensus here.

Damn that was a huge mismatch.  I feel bad for Moegenburg.  I feel like it could have ended much earlier.

Outstanding performance from Schoenfelder who finished Moegenburg via an impressive Ground & Pound 1st Round finish in what was ultimately a mismatch from start to finish... Moegenburg is a very inexperienced Light Heavyweight MMA Fighter at best, whereas Schoenfelder at 6ft 3, early 20's has a bright future in the Bellator Heavyweight Division in front of him... Congrats to Schoenfelder 👏👏🤔💯🤑🧐👊🥊👍
