I also don't think that Kape is a "lock". His ground game has looked very bad and Perez is a pretty good wrestler. Same goes for the Chidi vs Duraev fight. It is gonna depend a lot of whether Perez and Duraev choose to grapple or if they gonna try to win a kickboxing match and most likely lose then. With both underdogs having clear paths to victory by exploiting their opponents weaknesses I would be careful betting the two favorites here.

SINCE EVERYONE'S BEEN TALKING ABOUT IT....
Predictions: 5 of 10 Winners, 4 Perfect, 375 Points | Tied for 2484th
3 Inch Reach advantage Giles has over Parsons
5.22 Strikes Landed per Min. for Parsons
3.19 Takedown Average/15 min. for Parsons
100% Takedown Defense for Parsons
4.0 Submission Average/15 min. for Parsons
336 Days since Parsons fought inside the octagon. Parsons needed hand surgery after Elder fight.
90% Finish rate for Parsons
Parsons' loss to Daniel Rodriguez is forgivable - Rodriguez is a beast and too much man for anyone to handle for a short notice debut. Parsons took that fight on 8 days notice. He hadn’t been on a plane in six years, He'd never been to Vegas.
Giles will not be bothered by the crowds, lights, TV appearance, etc. The fight is also in Gile's home State of Texas. Brings up the controversy over the Krause win - Giles' BJJ coach [Eric Williams] was also judge Joe Soliz' BJJ coach (Joe Soliz was the judge scoring that fight that gave it to Giles).
Both are BJJ brown belts. Both started training MMA around 2011. Parsons is a Taekwondo brown belt.
Typical weight cut for Parsons is about 15 pounds. For Giles its about 18 pounds.
Giles had a syncopal episode during UFC on ESPN+ 31 wherein his fight against late replacement Kevin Holland was canceled.
-Roman Dolidze was a late replacement fighting on short notice (10 days notice).
-Giles vs Cosce was one of the most boring, inactive fights ever (35 combined total sig. strikes landed throughout 3 rounds). Cosce was coming off a 2 year layoff as well. Even then, Cosce took Giles' back and almost sunk in a Von Flue then almost sunk an arm triangle choke. Giles really missed opportunities against Cosce that make one question his fight IQ.
-Bevon Lewis got cut from the UFC...
Parsons is definitely the more active fighter (inside the octagon), possibly the better wrestler, certainly the more dangerous grappler. Parsons is co-owner of Elevate MMA and is looking to make a name for his gym through a victory over Giles.
Giles is not a major KO threat standing up and will probably try to clinch rather than fight technical. Parsons has a 100% takedown defense and will use the clinch to take Giles to the mat, where the waterboarding begins...
Prediction: Parsons by Unanimous Decision.
