Look at how bad all of Xiao's opponents have been. Only 1 person with a good record (5-0), and that guy had only beaten cans/ lost his next fight to a 4-4 nobody

@Wetzell, if they offer you that I would consider it a dub. But tbh I thought you’d just be getting a call, hopefully the contender contracts are okay.

My manager nor myself don't know anything about this, only came to our attention today via Twitter. Considering it's 2 weeks away and I haven't been contacted by anyone.  ***?

@wetzell that sucks, you deserve a DWCS fight (or just to be signed to the UFC imo) but it shouldn't be on two weeks notice.

Giving this guy a handout on the contender series so he can look good and get a bit of hype behind him before his debut.

Yan vs. Silva
Karine Silva, SUB, R2
Rooting for Yan but gotta go with Silva based on the level of competition.

Silva vs. Omargadzhiev
Gadzhi Omargadzhiev, TKO, R2
I believe Gadzhi's experience will be a factor here. He is 12-0 as a pro but has a lot of amateur experience as well. Silva's last win was against a dude who is 6-8. Not impressed. Gadzhi will wear him down and then finish him off in the second round.

Quiñonez vs. Xiao
Christian Quiñonez, TKO, R1
I like that Christian is more in his prime here and he has beaten some tough opponents. He beat a guy who knocked out Wilson Reis. Who has Long Xiao beaten exactly? He has been selling his fans wolf tickets! Not anymore. Welcome to the UFC bud.

Basharat vs. Kahlon
Oron Kahlon, DEC
I am excited for this fight. Both fighters have great submission skills and the only concern here for Kahlon is his age. He is 40. However he is the bigger fighter here and that definitely gives him an advantage. When skills are matched the bigger fighter tends to win.

Despite the age difference I really think kahlon is gonna surprise some people. Dude has 6 black belts and trains with Conor Mcgregors movement coach.

Silva vs. Omargadzhiev
Silva, TKO, R2
Why so many people are picking Omargadzhiev? Just because he is russian? Silva is a very technical striker, has already trained at Tiger Muay Thai and in terms of level of competition, both guys are taking a step forward. Plus, he has 79.5 in reach, BIG factor here. This is a close fight to pick. Going with Silva but i'm really surprised that more than 90% are picking Omar
