Mitch Ramirez, TKO, R2
Give me the feel good story of Ramirez, cut from TUF to make room for Connor's bums. Revenge tour starts here.
Belgaroui vs. Tulio
Marco Tulio, TKO, R1
Chute box baby
Cuamba vs. Vogel
Timothy Cuamba, DEC
going to take the fighter out of the better gym , even though Vogel has the better competition
Cole vs. Petersen
Thomas Petersen, TKO, R2
Cole looks like a whale , also if he doesn't win in the first round he'll crumble
Salvador vs. Oki
Bolaji Oki, TKO, R3
Oki is the more skilled fighter, will break him late

Predictions: 2 of 5 Winners, 0 Perfect, 100 Points | Tied for 1115th
I trust Carlos Prates at -225. He has an odd quivering palm death touch. Prates will manipulate the cage. Beep boop!
Salvador vs. Oki
I go for Dylan Salvador at -150. He has a faux gas tank. Salvador should capture the canvas.
Cuamba vs. Vogel
I favor Mateo Vogel at -160. He has a xerophthalmic knife hand block and an ironic chin. Vogel could cheat the rival.
Belgaroui vs. Tulio
I want Yousri Belgaroui at -145. He has an outrageous armpit slam. Belgaroui might ignite the humiliating defeat. Money in the bank!
Cole vs. Petersen
I prefer Thomas Petersen at -750. He has an obscene clinch. Petersen will reject the cage.

Carlos Prates, TKO, R1
Prates is absolutely going to rip roast this dude
Belgaroui vs. Tulio
Yousri Belgaroui, TKO, R2
Tulio is painfully mid. If Belgaroui is far enough in his MMA transition he should beat him.
Cuamba vs. Vogel
Mateo Vogel, SUB, R2
Cuamba is a high-ceiling prospect but is the definition of a can crusher.
Cole vs. Petersen
Thomas Petersen, TKO, R1
Petersen is at this point the best regional American heavyweight, should be leagues ahead of Cole.
Salvador vs. Oki
Dylan Salvador, DEC
Super close, but if Oki gives up the back foot like he usually does, that may not bode very well for him against a striker the caliber of Salvador.
