I think Alonzo is going to win this easily. Everyone talks about Knights KO power, what KO power? He hit a very chinny Cherant with a lucky shot that would not KO anyone else in any other way. He has not got that many KOs and usually goes to boring decisions. He has low volume on the feet and no defensive wrestling and a poor get up game. I think this is an easy win for Alonzo.

My picks as of now - Morono, Morales, Murzakanov (lock), Gritz, Alonzo, Buys, Kape (lock), Wells, Pitolo, Allen, Crute (lock), Santos, Riddell (lock), Aldo (Almost a lock).

Gonna agree to disagree there , you're picks are all over the place lol. Morales? Pshhh.. Gritz? Pshhh... Pitolo? Pshhh...  One thing I do like though is we seem to be the only one picking Wells , so because he's a Philly boy and so am I. I'll let you slide on those. I bet those odds would be wild parlayed together.

I disagree that the Menifield/Knight fight won't leave the first. I am definitely taking the over 1.5 and maybe even Menifield by decision

We will see, I think you will find you are very much over estimating Dusko who is not UFC level, and while I agree the Smolka fight is close, how exactly is Smolka going to win it?

And yes, I am picking Gritz, again a close fight but I think he takes it. The key being again how will Puelles win this? He has ok striking at range but volume is not great with no great power and he is very hittable. If you watch tape on him you will see he does not look like he tolerates getting hit well and just shells up and opens himself up to body shots which is one of Gritz's specialties. There is no way he is going to KO Gritz who will start to come on strong from R2 and I expect Puelles to fade.

My main worry is that Gritz can get taken down (though he often does try to get up) and he can get subbed by good grapplers. However if you watch his last few submission losses he got caught in chokes on the way down in transition by top level grapplers in Chas Skelly and Davi Ramos. While Puelles has a good ground game I don't think he is that level and his ground victories were mainly against kick boxers and a gassed out over-rated Leavitt. If you watch the fight against Felipe Silva you can easily see how he could get into trouble against Gritz.

Too much breakdown for this fight, but I think Gritz keeps it standing and KOs Puelles late.

Smolka has better stand up and wrestling. Smolkas Karate background will keep his distance and I can see him choking Vince out. Not that hard , and same with Gritz. Gritz will get choked out. Also , Pitolo will either be finished by KO or submission. Lol

plus those leg kicks that Team Oyama fighters throw could cause problems to Vince because his foundation is boxing a la Gutierrez vs Morales

I think I'm mostly enjoying it so much because I was expecting boxing to just dominate and MMA is kicking their ass so far. Seems they are just so accustomed to the bigger gloves the mma gloves can just find shots so easy. I went ahead and put a few bucks I don't care about losing on perry and mitchrione at +600, real small amount parlaying both too for the **** of it.

Also, Jared vanderaa is stepping in for Phillipe Lin’s for this card. Fught is being moved to heavyweight. Slightly tougher fight for azamat now. Probably will still win due to speed advantage. Especially at heavyweight

Oh man, he’s gonna be 6 inches shorter and at a 9 inch reach disadvantage. Dude who could fight at middleweight vs a true heavyweight lol. Thankfully vanderaa isn’t very good, but my confidence in azamat has definitely decreased. Still first round ko for sure, but vanderaa only being ko’ed by GNP does give me pause

****. Definitely not touching that one then. I really like what I see from azamat but Jared's a "cut down to 265" heavyweight. I had a feeling something would go wrong with lins dropping down.
