Split Decision and I don't like it one bit Bunch of uncertainty. I think Moises takes a relatively safe route. 30-27 Underwhelming like 13mins to he opponents 2 type of fight.

Calvillo vs. Lee
Cynthia Calvillo, DEC
uni 30-27x2, 29-28 Calvillo accepting cause its beneficial

Kennedy Nzechukwu vs Da-Un Jung

Predictions: 6 of 11 Winners, 2 Perfect, 375 Points   |   Tied for 937th

I like Kennedy Nzechukwu in this one very tough fight Da-Un Jung hasn’t lost a fight since 2015 in just his 3 fight but the Sam Alvey fight put me of Jung a bit he was down by two rounds to Sam who is useless. But Alvey did have one of his best performances that night , both man have good cardio and both men are coming off near career high performances . Jung showed he had great wrestling in his last fight and he has some crafty submissions and Nzechuku come out so clean in his last round against Danilo Marques he had him hurt at the end of the second . Come out in the 3rd stayed light on the feet and pieced him up for 20 seconds and the ref had seen enough. Both men have never been knocked out . Im staying with Kennedy here his wins and loses in the ufc have resonated better the Jungs. He has a 4 and 1/2 in reach advantage he just needs to keep this fight on the feet and i think he can .Alvey was a southpaw that gave Jung alot of drama and i think Kennedy is a way more dangers southpaw. I think Jung might win the first round but Nzechukwu will come back and win a late 3rd RD KO/TKO or DEC .great fight to kick off the card

Song vs. Arce
Julio Arce, DEC
this is a great fight, both guys looked really good in their last fights and I'm ever so slightly leaning Arce here. Song is good in the pocket, his boxing combinations are great but he is there to get countered and I just feel like Arce can land some counter shots here, Arce will want to control the octagon and if he does I think he gets it done here, he's good at cutting the cage, he can come in with aggressive combinations and he can sit back and counter which I see him having a lot of success doing against Song who will try to enter the pocket and leave

Holloway vs. Rodriguez
Max Holloway, TKO, R4
I really think, like most, Holloway puts on an absolute clinic. I think Yair could withstand, and fight back and deliver on a certain level. Although, I think the Ref sees enough in the fourth round. TKO standing. 7 /11 fights go to decision IMO should I get a taquito??

Rothwell vs. Rogério de Lima
Ben Rothwell, DEC
Tough fought 29-28, 30-27 Uni

Spencer vs. Letson
Felicia Spencer, DEC
Getting Dog Alert here, but Felicia keeps danger at bay. Spencer showcases a vulnerability, but still brings a victory home securing a 30-27

Pick #2💥 Max "Blessesd" Holloway🇺🇸 vs Yair "El Pantera" Rodríguez🇲🇽

Predictions: 1 of 1 Winners, 0 Perfect, 50 Points   |   Tied for 3504th


Holloway is a fighter who despite occasionally hitting his elbow, knee and foot, his offensive range is primarily made up of fist blows; while Rodríguez is more complete in that aspect, he explodes and varies more with the 8 hitting points that are allowed in MMA; so we will see a Hawaiian boxer versus a Mexican kickboxer.
Max is superlative in terms of volume, he is a machine to connect blows and has a high durability jaw and cardio; Yair's hope to survive and win through said rain of blows is the creativity and dynamism that his movements possess, he is an Aztec ninja figuratively speaking, maybe so he can cut the rhythm of Blessesd; although it is still more likely from my perception, that El Pantera will be sewn with the brutal pressure exerted by the American.
Regarding the method and the round: the Chihuahua warrior does not have a particularly resistant skin armor, it is not very difficult for his face to be painted red and adorned with dark bruises.


Max Holloway by TKO in the third round.

Next card’s main event misleads that card, it’s actually pretty stacked. Best fight night card we’ve had in recent times (if it holds). Some of those fights are PPV main/prelim worthy

Baeza vs. Williams
Miguel Baeza, DEC
This such a banger, I do believe Baeza can use his speed advantage to get ahead against Williams as well as landing the calf kicks which Williams don't check. Williams has the power to KO anyone, the man is so powerful and Baeza needs to be so careful, he can't leave himself too exposed here. I think baeza can keep his hands high and land some counters when Williams is blitzing in and out point him here
