Paddy is very opportunistic but I don’t see a scenario where he makes it happen against Drew

Beneil Dariush, DEC
I love both guys, both are such good representations of the sport while also being incredibly entertaining. As much as I don't want to pick against Charles I just can't bring myself to do it. Beneil is just a bad style matchup. Elite grappling with solid technical striking and heavy hands
Williams vs. Bedoya
Khaos Williams, TKO, R1
Gotta think this is a fight to get Khaos on the right track
