I'm a lowkey Fremd fan but he is kod bad here, I thought Roman could squash the cardioper but Josh has bad strike defense average cardio and yeah its gonna be ugly.

@Joshjeffords 
nailed it. 
Fremd is completely outmatched here.
Kopylov will be in the top 10 sooner than later

This won’t even be close lol. Fremd has had chances to prove he’s not just a regional guy. But it’s been proven he’s a bottom feeder. To put it bluntly, Kopylov is gonna make him his *****

I'm wondering if Ponizinibbio will get a new opponent.
I'd like to see UFC give him Michael Morales

Sherdog usually does that but it doesn't mean there is definitely a replacement

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 465 Points   |   Tied for 2019th

Cortez vs. Jasudavicius
Jasmine Jasudavicius, DEC
Decided to go with Jasmine bc I'm not sure how Cortez will be since long layoff

Holland vs. Maddalena
Jack Della Maddalena, DEC
If Kevin decides to grapple it could be a long night for JDM but I don't see him being grapple heavy and JDM wins 29-28

Levy vs. Reyes
Natan Levy, DEC
Damn Reyes has been away for a long time and that always makes me wonder if they were working on their game or just ****in' around

Lucindo vs. Knutsson
Iasmin Lucindo, DEC
Josefine looked ok on DWCS but didn't see her getting signed without a few more wins on regional scene. I was shocked to hear that she was fighting at Noche. Iasmin has been good since she lost to Yazmin in her debut

Someone explain to me why Holland is not favoured here when he's the favourite according to the bookies. JDM is also very one-dimensional

Bookies come up with odds using statistical data, (most) people on Tapology actually watch tape

@Christos 
TAPOLOGY can be biased towards the shiny new toy sometimes. Kevin should win but he can do reckless and playful. That’s why we love him but it’s hard to fully trust him here. Odds reflect that, TAPOLOGY % exaggerates it.

Grasso vs. Shevchenko II
Valentina Shevchenko, DEC
I believe this is probably the safest pick to make tbh. Although Valentina does have some finishes on her record, they tend to come later in the fight RD 3 & on usually. With Grasso being the dog that she is, I see her toughing out that possibility & with having the mental edge likely this time around as the newly crowned Flyweight Queen, it was fully hard for me to easily choose Valentina as newly crowned champs lately have cemented themselves as the new sherriff's in town. None the less, every bout is different & it will be interesting to see how someone as talented as Valentina will adapt & make changes to ensure her victory this time around
