Chase Hooper
Chase Hooper is set to embarrass Jordan Leavitt in the octagon – Leavitt's skill set is so painfully lacking that it's like watching a wannabe fighter attempt to mimic the pros. Hooper will effortlessly expose Leavitt's incompetence, and anyone putting their money on Leavitt must have a profound misunderstanding of the fight game. Betting on a guy like Leavitt against Hooper is a surefire way to flush your money down the drain.

Michael Morales
Michael Morales is poised to make Jake Matthews regret sharing the same ring – Matthews' skill level is so abysmal that it's like witnessing a rookie attempt to challenge a seasoned veteran. Morales will undoubtedly expose Matthews' lack of talent, and anyone foolish enough to put their money on Matthews is as clueless about the fight game as Matthews is in the octagon. Prepare for a one-sided beatdown because Morales is in a different class altogether.

Brendan Allen
Brendan Allen is about to make Paul Craig regret even thinking he belongs in the same league – Craig's skill set is so laughably inadequate that it's like watching an amateur try to emulate a real fighter. Allen will expose Craig's lack of talent, and anyone foolish enough to bet on Craig is clearly as misguided as Craig is in the octagon. Betting against Allen in this matchup would be a textbook example of throwing money away – something Paul Craig seems all too familiar with.

Fading Leavitt means I'm on the side of the pre-teen titan Chase Hooper

Charles Johnson, DEC
I liked what I saw from Estevam on the Contender Series, but I question how he performs at the UFC level. Johnson has more experience against better opposition, probably better striking, and a more proven gas tank. In terms of activity, there's also some red flags; Estevam hasn't fought in over a year, while Johnson has fought four times in about the same period. There's still a lot of questions about Estevam's cardio, striking and wrestling, on top of the fact he missed weight by three lbs. As much as I worry about Johnson's ability to lose close fights, and his struggles with being controlled, I just don't feel comfortable backing unproven Brazilians--- especially not when they're the favorite against the more proven veteran (re:Maness/Mendonca). I'm going to be optimistic here: Johnson has never been finished, performs well later in fights, and has the style to neutralize a guy like Estevam. All of that in mind, there's more value on Johnson as the underdog, and I'm picking him to win by decision.

Lucas Alexander, DEC
Vejo favoritismo para o lado do Lucas. Acredito que a luta será desenrolada na trocação… diante disso, um Lucas é um striker mais técnico e polido do que o Jeka. Porém, o Saragih pode levar perigo ao brasileiro, principalmente no ground and pound.

Leve favoritismo para a Amandinha. Isso, por conta de uma maior experiência e rodagem.

Brendan Allen, TKO, R1
Allen with good enough grappling to not get subbed by Bearjew and good enough striking to crack him and get the finish. If he can throw them hands like last time against Silva its gonna be a quick night and thats what Im counting on.
Matthews vs. Morales
Michael Morales, DEC
Matthews can be a little bit all over the place with his performances and its up to Morales to show that he is the prospect he gets marketed as. I think Morales has the wrestling to stop Matthews grappling and then win a decision on the feet..
Leavitt vs. Hooper
Jordan Leavitt, DEC
Same theme as the main event. Leavitt good enough grappler to not get subbed by Askrens son and good enough striking to kickbox a dec.
Talbott vs. Aguirre
Payton Talbott, TKO, R2
Dont know the dudes to well here. Going with the young favorite, seems to have power in them hands and hope we get to see it.
Ribas vs. Pinheiro
Amanda Ribas, DEC
Ribas on another level? Met way tougher opposition and been competing at a higher weight class.
Medic vs. Orolbai
Uros Medic, TKO, R1
Medic is a wild man and I guess he gets it done here unless this other guy is the next Shavkat coming in here or something. Should be a wild one since both seem to like finish quickly.
Pearce vs. Brito
Jonathan Pearce, DEC
This one is a banger right here! Brito is wild and dangerous but I think JSP is to well rounded and can use his control in the wrestling tire out Brito and get in some more impact over 3 rounds. Britos chance is to crack him with a hard one.
Anheliger vs. Johnson
Jose Johnson, TKO, R2
The size difference should get Johnson the W here.
Duncan vs. Tiuliulin
Christian Leroy Duncan, TKO, R1
Lets go CLD. Fun prospect right here. Maybe dont go too crazy with the flashy stuff and tire out. He should be able to finish Tiuliulin here but he is tough and not afraid to scrap.
Parkin vs. Machado
Mick Parkin, TKO, R1
Parkins boxing looked sharp last time. He will find that chin of Bigfoot and then night night.
Alexander vs. Saragih
Lucas Alexander, TKO, R1
Luke should get this, if I remember correct he got some sweet kickboxing.
Pudilová vs. Perez
Lucie Pudilová, DEC
Pudilova grinding out a decision here. She got the size on Perez and if Perez had trouble with the weight she might tire. Pudilova mixing in her clinch work with some kickboxing winning a slow decision classic style.
Motta vs. Ogden
Nikolas Motta, TKO, R1
Motta got finished bad last time but now his time to deal out some punishment?
Johnson vs. Estevam
Charles Johnson, DEC
Estevam struggling with the weight. Can Johnson exploit that and tire him out with the wrestling and grind out a dec?

Brendan Allen, TKO, R2
Craig is terrible besides his guard pulling submissions. His striking and defense is terrible too. Allen should work this guy and then knock him out fairly easily. If Allen goes to the ground with him, things will get interesting.
Matthews vs. Morales
Michael Morales, TKO, R2
Morales will get Matthews down and finish him with ground and pound.
Leavitt vs. Hooper
Jordan Leavitt, DEC
Monkey King will implement takedowns and just be stronger here. Will be a close one though.
Talbott vs. Aguirre
Payton Talbott, TKO, R2
Talbott is a bright prospect. He wins this however he wants.
Ribas vs. Pinheiro
Amanda Ribas, DEC
Pinheiro isn't good besides her power. She could catch Ribas but I doubt it.
Medic vs. Orolbai
Uros Medic, TKO, R1
Medic will catch him with something early on.
Pearce vs. Brito
Jonathan Pearce, DEC
Pearce will be in danger early but as this fight goes on I think he takes over and just works the gassed Brito.
Anheliger vs. Johnson
Jose Johnson, DEC
Johnson wins this because Chad isn't UFC caliber.
Duncan vs. Tiuliulin
Christian Leroy Duncan, TKO, R1
Should be a quick knockout for Duncan. Denis can bring it but he can't take the heat.
Parkin vs. Machado
Mick Parkin, TKO, R1
Machado is the worst fighter on the UFC roster. He didn't deserve a DWCS contract. Parkin will ground and pound him.
Alexander vs. Saragih
Lucas Alexander, TKO, R1
Jeka will push the pace early and Alexander will catch him with a counter punch.
Pudilová vs. Perez
Ailin Perez, DEC
Perez will win a close decision.
Motta vs. Ogden
Nikolas Motta, TKO, R2
I'll never pick Ogden in a fight and I actually think Motta is pretty good besides his chin so I'll roll with him. Motta has crazy power too. Ogden is just terrible.
Johnson vs. Estevam
Rafael Estevam, DEC
Estevam will just keep taking Johnson down and win a pretty close decision.
