@Hyrm 


Think it's a mix of Paul Craig's popularity and him moving weight classes, and getting a W over Muniz last time out.

Than Brendan has been on a nice lil finish streak, think they're trying to get a lil hype around new potential title challengers at 185.

First Kazama & now Saragih - I don't understand UFC signing 2nd place fighters from Road to UFC. Am I missing something here?

Allen vs. Craig
Brendan Allen, TKO, R4
Craig can always find a sub at any point of any fight, but the more reasonnable pick here is Allen dominating him for a few rounds before a late tKO.

Leavitt vs. Hooper
Chase Hooper, DEC
Fun match up. Hooper's stand up is getting kind of goof (and weird). With that reach advantage, that should be the difference.

Pearce vs. Brito
Jonathan Pearce
Come on Pearce deserves a ranked opponent, Brito is talented and all, but really time for a step up after this impressive winning streak.

Anybody else trying to figure out just how good Paul Craig can be at middleweight? Allen's striking has gotten a lot better in the last 2 years but he still very much relies on his grappling in his fights. The one guy we thought could potentially give Allen a run for his money was Muniz, and Allen pretty much dominated him. Not only did Paul Craig do the same, but he did it an entire round faster than Allen did. 

This is sneaky good main event. Honestly not sure who I'm backing right now.

I rarely bet large amounts of my bankroll on Dogs, but I think Pinheiro could be a good pick. 

Ribas is chinny AF & gets hurt easily. She's not gonna be able to submit Luana imo so it's mostly gonna be her pillow jab against the lower volume but powerful strikes of Pinheiro. In a clinch situation Pinheiro's power Judo should get the TD with ease, Amanda could play unsuccessful BJJ from her back too long, and if she can't KO her on the feet - just landing a power punch and getting a huge reaction from Amanda should be the factor that causes judges to give her the round
