I don't know much about Shane Young... how is his TD defense or wrestling ability.  I think he trains with Adesanya, Hooker and the other guys but they aren't necessarily known for their grappling prowess over there.  We know that Bilder is a great wrestler (watched his contender series fight), will Young be able to stop the takedowns?

Brown vs. Maddalena
Jack Della Maddalena, TKO, R2
I'm picking Maddalena, but I won't be surprised at all if Randy Brown survives an early storm in round 1, shuts him down in round 2 and tko's him in round 3. Great test for both, good matchmaking.

haven't looked into the maddalena/brown matchup yet but first thought is that if jack wasn't such a heavily boxing oriented fighter, he'd stand a waay better chance against randy brown

randy brown is notorious for struggling a **** ton against leg kicks (young belal unironically outstruck him because of this)

basically, the 2 biggest holes in randy brown's game, the inability to defend leg kicks and the inability to grapple, jack can't really take advantage of

I still think jack wins but this should be a close fight

JDM as a prelim?  I hope he would at least be the main prelim.

It's not until Tapology posts numbers to the left of each fight which determines the order (it would seem)

Just a completely absurd fight, I can't wait

Rodriguez vs. Emmett
Yair Rodriguez, DEC
Fair enough, although no chance in hell either of these guys beat Volk

Alvarez vs. Tukhugov
Joel Alvarez, TKO, R1
A move up fight for Tukhugov for missing weight... only to fight a monster like Alvarez who should be at 170

Brown vs. Maddalena
Jack Della Maddalena, DEC
Ok both of these guys should be fighting up but man oh man is this gonna be good regardless
