Olivier Aubin-Mercier, DEC
Mercier really surpassed my expectations of him, his judo career was decent but not much to suggest he would become an MMA millionaire... Good for him
Sy vs. Al-Silawi
Jarrah Hussein Al-Silawi, DEC
Silawi is good he could win this

Olivier Aubin-Mercier, DEC
I really don’t think Burgos will have that much success in pfl. He was always more of an action fighter than a contender and now he seems more motivated for money than reaching the top. I also thought he looked very bad in his last fight. Now he’s going up a weight class and fighting a very good grappler. Burgos has always had amazing tdd, but up a weight class against a legit grappler, I think he will struggle.
Sy vs. Al-Silawi
Sadibou Sy, DEC
Damn no easy fights for Al-silawi. I really thought he was gonna do well in pfl; he dominated in the regional scene and has wins over a ton of good opponents. However he has struggled badly in pfl. He should’ve lost to tibau and then showed almost no chin against Umalatov. Sy is a very good fighter; since going to XC he has improved his tdd and learned how to use his large frame to outpoint his opponents on the feet. He should take this over the guy who has struggled to put it together
Schulte vs. Ray
Natan Schulte, SUB, R3
Pretty crazy stevie ray was able to get to the finals off of beating washed pettis back to back. He’s a pretty solid black belt but not much better anywhere else. I think Schulte still has a lot left in the tank and is the way better grappler. He is a legit black belt in both judo and bjj
Manfio vs. Martinez
Raush Manfio, DEC
I really don’t think martinez is that good, he’s won a lot of questionable decisions. Manfio on the other hand is really good. He should light martinez up on the feet and his tdd is good enough to fend off martinez
Abdulvakhabov vs. Amir
Abdul-Aziz Abdulvakhabov, DEC
Super cool to see AAA finally in a major org. However, pfl has gotten him too late. He’s still got talent, but he’s well out of prime at this point in his career. You could make a case he lost his last two (they were very close to be fair), he’s slower, doesn’t have as good a chin or reflexes. That being said, in his prime he was one of the scariest lightweights in the world, now, not so much. All this being said, he’s not gonna lose to amir. Dude barely fights and isn’t that amazing
Collard vs. Nishikawa
Clay Collard, TKO, R3
Nishikawa has a good record and is very young, but just because he was signed to the ufc doesn’t necessarily mean he’s ready for the big leagues. Looks very green on tape. Collard has improved into a very solid fighter. I think he will light up nishikawa
Magomedkerimov vs. Madge
Magomed Magomedkerimov, TKO, R2
Magomedkerimov has a really good record, but he always underperforms imo. He also looked very out of shape in his last fight. That being said, I think he’s just bet he r than madge; never really know what’s going on with that guy
Leal vs. Zawada
Carlos Leal, DEC
Leal might actually have some trouble here, but I think he can beat Zawada

Burgos wouldve been a massive problem at Fw, but I guess to avoid cutting massive amont of weight so many times a year he decided to compete at lw, he won't do very well

Nayib López, TKO, R2
Interested to see how lopez looks. He definitely earned some respect in my eyes when he dominated dwcs vet Ivan Valenzuela in his last fight. I’m still skeptical about that record, but there’s definitely some talent there. No idea who this aussie is; he looks ******
Miranda vs. Amir
Bruno Miranda, TKO, R3
Big fan of Miranda’s striking. He should look good here
Juusola vs. Jenkins
Brandon Jenkins, TKO, R2
Juusola has been around forever and is a solid vet, but b jenks is gonna put him on a highlight reel
