Ricardo Ramos, SUB, R1
I think Ramos is going to start making a splash in the division. He’s good in all areas but his strength is grappling all day and Henry is prone to submissions despite being a grappler himself
Jourdain vs. Wood
Charles Jourdain, TKO, R3
Jourdain impressed me against Burgos. He looked excellent and made Shane resort to grappling. Wood is good but he got TKOd by John Dodson so I think a very high level striker like Jourdain can do the same

Benoit Saint-Denis, TKO, R1
Both sub specialists but BSD is way higher level, guessing he gets the takedown and tries for chokes then finishes w/ GnP

Benoit Saint-Denis, TKO, R2
Miranda is a submission specialist but his competition has been pretty poor. I think this will be light work for Benoit

What an ironic situation : Doumbé has 83 kickboxing fights !!! (75 wins including 45 by KO), and is arguably the best kickboxer in the world right now.
A 4-0 or 5-0 fighter would be in very serious health danger against him.
Even in his 2-0 MMA reccord Doumbé showed a complete MMA game, with decent wrestling and great TD defense.
Matching him against a top 10 would almost make sense at this point, especially if you look at the great success his Glory kickboxing pairs have quickly accomplished before him (2 ex Glory kickboxers Adesanya and Pereira are about to face each other for the title, this is crazy ! and Chikadze had a decent run at feitherweight for exemple).
An alternative solution for Doumbé would be to sign another experienced kickboxer who wants to switch to MMA , there is plenty of them (why not someone like French kickboxing legend Fabio Pinca).
But now it would be a shame to not have Doumbé on this card.

Well, Heavyweight being heavyweight, I can try to see Tuivasa having the traditional "puncher's chance" in the early rounds against Gané, but Gané has a great chin, is way better technically, more athletic, and is almost untouchable so I wouldn't bet on it at all...
I agree Vettori has a better chance against Whittaker than what the odds are suggesting in my opinion, he's tough and durable as hell, hits hard and still improving, so why not.
But if you're betting, I would avoid a Tuivasa pick.

Ciryl Gane, DEC
It's wild that Tai is fighting the No. 1 contender. It feels almost wrong to me. Oh so wrong
Whittaker vs. Vettori
Robert Whittaker, DEC
Stupid Marvin can suck it, making me look dumb for thinking Jack was gonna steam roll him and then proving me wrong.
Imavov vs. Buckley
Nassourdine Imavov, TKO, R2
Why did Joaquin look good in his last fight?
Jourdain vs. Wood
Charles Jourdain, TKO, R3
Charles is gonna have fun with this one.
