Ricky Bandejas, DEC
I absolutely love this fight. Bandejas is one of my favorite guys not in a major org. His record is ugly, but it’s very deceptive; bandejas always makes fights close and a lot of his decisions should’ve gone his way imo (borg,archuleta, etc.). Now that being said he does sometimes underperform a lot. However, I think he should style on rettinghouse. He had his chance to get to the ufc, but since missing out I’m not sure how motivated he is
França vs. Burrell
Nah-shon Burrell, DEC
I can’t believe how young these guys are considering how long they’ve been around. However, I think they are trending in different areas. Franca used to be very good (just look who he beat on TUF), but he has not looked good since. He is off steroids, been inactive, and lost his last two badly. Nah-shon on the other hand is just getting better imo. He’s always been one of those guys who fights way better than their records, but I think he’s in his prime now. Not to say he’s a world beater, but he is putting up close fights with guys like aliskerov or Curtis. I’ll take him to beat franca who I think has slowed down a lot
Sanoudakis vs. Morales
Vince Morales, TKO, R2
I always thought morales was really solid, but he’s struggled to put things together. He’s a pretty solid boxer who apparently has a wrestling background, but he never uses it. He’s just a boxer in mma and that’s pretty much it. His opponent has fought a whos who of opponents, but I think this is one morales should look pretty good in
Tiller vs. Vanderaa
Jared Vanderaa, DEC
Well so much for vanderaa to 205 lol. I’m very split on this fight, I have no reason to pick vanderaa to win anything because he always has the worst game plans and fight iq possible. If his opponent has an advantage, you best believe vanderaa is gonna fight to that strength. But, he’s fighting a guy who is finally on his level, and who missed weight by 4 lbs at hw. I think vanderaa is the better fighter but wouldn’t shock me if he just drops his hands and let’s Kelvin tee off on him
Pena vs. Dufort
Michael Dufort, DEC
Dufort has an ugly record but I actually like him here. Pena is a guy who always looks very good, but never puts it together and often times just leaves you dissapointed. Ever since getting kicked from the ufc and being sued for DV, he’s almost taken on a journeyman role, just taking any fight he can get (I mean Christ, he was going to fly to Russia to fight Vart). I don’t even know if he trains anymore as shown by his recent results. Gimmie the motivated fighter
Cosce vs. Jones
Louis Cosce, TKO, R2
Cosce should win this fight but he’s so unreliable. He has looked like a totally different fighter since dwcs (and not in a good way). He’s also been so inactive; makes me think he has another job. Now, I know nothing about his opponent but he seems like a grappler who loses to every step up he faces. I think I’ll go cosce because of ufc experience but no idea what to really expect here
Hyde vs. Diaz
Brendan Hyde, SUB, R1
Idk anything about this guy but it’s clear xmma wants him to win
Khasanov vs. Smith
Josh Smith, DEC
I was trying to find a reason to pick khasanov but I just can’t. He always finds a way to lose. He was looking good in his last two and just gave the figbts away. Smith is old and has a bad record but I think he can use his veteran prowess to pull a win out
Poulter vs. Felipe
Bobby Poulter, TKO, R2
Poulter should win but ngl this could get ugly

Saidyokub Kakhramonov, TKO, R1
Saidyokub never should’ve been cut. He is an incredibly skilled fighter. Cisco was supposed to fight last week but missed by 8 lbs; I doubt he’s even gonna make weight lol. Either way saidyokub is just the better fighter. I hope he can go to pfl or Bellator if ufc is really gonna dump him

Vince Morales, DEC
This should be a scrap. Both guys love to throw down. Ishihara is just so bad to me. Morales is pretty one dimensional but he is a clean boxer. He should get the better of ishihara
Kakhramonov vs. Costa
Saidyokub Kakhramonov, TKO, R1
This is a way better fight than the original booking. Costa isn’t a world beater & he may not be ex-ufc but he is a solid guy. That being said, saidyokub is a top 25 bw in the world & never should’ve been cut from the ufc. He should make this look easy. I hope ufc and him can come to an agreement
Nallo vs. La Terra
Mandel Nallo, TKO, R1
Really shocked to see Bellator cut rat garbage. I get he’s not that good, but he can always produce some highlights. He has an obvious ceiling but this is a total setup fight for him
Ramirez vs. Holloway
Mitch Ramirez, SUB, R2
Should be a tee up for Ramirez. I wonder if he ends up on dwcs after; he’s not bad & has a good winstreak going

Ricky Bandejas, TKO, R1
Gonna be the same result as the previous booking. Cisco is back on roids and still has some gas left in the tank, but not much. Ricky is a really good striker with a deceptive record. I really hope he can get to one of the big shows again
Pou vs. Mitchell
Brian Mitchell, DEC
Poo is going down
Eliziário vs. Jones
Cody Jones, SUB, R1
Jones should win this, but he’s very untested. Elizario may be fragile and old, but he’s only lost to relatively good comp. I hope this isn’t another will starks situation

Justin Scoggins, DEC
It would be really cool to see scoggins get another shot in the ufc. He is really talented but wasn’t ready for the ufc when he was originally there (although he totally beat said nurmagomedov). It’s so crazy he’s only 30, I think with an impressive win he could maybe end up in a big org
