Ignacio Bahamondes, DEC
Originally going to have Bahamondes finish Motta given Motta's kill or be killed approach. Ogden is the antithesis in terms of style. I can see Ogden having early success with the grappling but if he doesn't use it to get the finish, it will be a long night for him. Ignacio is tall for the division with a wiry frame might give Ogden fits. I can see Ogden using his grappling to keep him in the rounds. Overall, Bahamondes should have the more impactful moments to secure a decision win.
"What an excellent day for combat."

Alex Pereira, TKO, R2
Pereira is the demon that Adesanya will never be able to conquer. It is written
Burns vs. Masvidal
Gilbert Burns, DEC
Jorge would win this in his prime, but he's nearly 40. It's not 2019 anymore.
Font vs. Yanez
Adrian Yanez, DEC
Font's taken too much damage as oof lately. Pure bias pick, go Adrian!
Holland vs. Ponzinibbio
Kevin Holland, TKO, R2
A version of Ponzinibbio that nearly lost to Morono won't beat Holland, slumping or not. If Holland wins, he will be one of the UFC's most bizarre stars of the past.
Rosas Jr. vs. Rodriguez
Christian Rodriguez, DEC
Rosas is good but he isn't the wonderkid you all think he is. CeeRod is a proven product.
Gastelum vs. Curtis
Chris Curtis, DEC
Almost two years off for Gastelum? Man, Curtis has his flaws but this spells trouble. I'm leading towards thinking that this is going to be Gastelum's last UFC fight.
Waterson-Gomez vs. Pinheiro
Luana Pinheiro, DEC
Who cares, honestly
Meerschaert vs. Pyfer
Gerald Meerschaert, SUB, R2
Pyfer's first test. I don't exactly rate him, so I'm taking the proven product in GM3, he brings a wrinkle to the game that Pyfer hasn't faced.
Williams vs. Sherman
Karl Williams, DEC
Williams surprised me against Brzeski. Sherman is a step-down, this is a wash.
Calvillo vs. Godinez
Lupita Godinez, DEC
Look at Calvillo coming back down to 1115. It's over, let it go Cynthia.
Ogden vs. Bahamondes
Ignacio Bahamondes, TKO, R2
Bahamondes is an action star. Ogden won't be able to weather the storm.
Garcia vs. Nuerdanbieke
Shayilan Nuerdanbieke, DEC
Don't rate Garcia at all. Shayilan is at least a middling talent.
Hughes vs. Amorim
Jaqueline Amorim, SUB, R1
So excited to see Amorim get a step-up in competition. She's a prodigious talent and this fight will tell me a lot about her true ceiling.

Alex Pereira, TKO, R3
Poatan has Izzy’s number
Burns vs. Masvidal
Jorge Masvidal, DEC
Feel like Street Judas could grease out a decision in his home city here
Font vs. Yanez
Rob Font, DEC
Font shows yanez levels to the division here
Holland vs. Ponzinibbio
Kevin Holland, SUB, R2
Holland club n sub
Rosas Jr. vs. Rodriguez
Christian Rodriguez, DEC
If Rodriguez makes it out of the 1st round should be very interesting, Rodriguez impressed me in the Pearce fight tho
Gastelum vs. Curtis
Kelvin Gastelum, DEC
Big Curtis fan but he gives minutes of fights away and I think it’ll be his down fall here
Waterson-Gomez vs. Pinheiro
Michelle Waterson-Gomez, DEC
Could never pick Pinheiro after that Oscar performance against Markos
Meerschaert vs. Pyfer
Gerald Meerschaert, SUB, R3
Not completely sold on Pyfer yet
Williams vs. Sherman
Karl Williams, TKO, R2
Sherman might have a bit of success on the feet but once it gets to the ground I think Williams smashes him with g n p
Calvillo vs. Godinez
Lupita Godinez, DEC
This one probably gets cancelled due to weight cut issues on the Calvillo side lol
Ogden vs. Bahamondes
Ignacio Bahamondes, SUB, R2
Logical move would be Bahamondes by ko/tko, but I feel like he could snatch a neck after rocking Ogden
Garcia vs. Nuerdanbieke
Steve Garcia, DEC
If Garcia survives the 1st round I think he’ll have the cardio advantage and edge out a decision
Hughes vs. Amorim
Jaqueline Amorim, SUB, R1
Hughes might get a couple td’s but I see her getting subbed at some point

It's a shame he's had durability issues. He is the minute winner even against the most elite competition. Yanez is a slow starter and got pieced up early by both Costa and Grant.
I don't think it would be a good idea for Yanez to take round 1 off against Font and then have to win the last 2 or get a stoppage. Not if you're gonna be a -185 favorite.
