Manel Kape, TKO, R1
Brandon Royval stole Manels favorite strike against Nicolau. Its surprising a chin that wide is toast. Manel hasn't been going for finishes lately. Nicolaus is likely to get caught on the mat with an elbow or flying knee if we're lucky.

Best example of what I’m talking about is Colby Covington, he’s new coach ruin him by trying to make him ‘smarter’, Colby a pressure guy and he’s good because their hundreds of attacks coming at you, he’s new coach turned him into a low volume fighter and now he so much worst now then when he was at ATT

He is trying to better himself as a fighter but I think he is taking away to much of the wildness that makes him not only super entertaining for the fans but also a threat for his opponents.

I’m tempted to bet him as underdog, hoping he fight game plan to avoid getting hit, or don’t get cold ****ed

I do have some bets on him, but only because I have some promotional free bets
BTW I think Jim Miller is a reasonable dog pick as well (for free bets hah)

Prediction Comments
Predictions: 8 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 540 Points | Tied for 1726th
Magomed Ankalaev, DEC
Same as last time I think Ankalaev is gonna be too technical for Walker to deal with. Would love a Johnny Walker upset here & it's hard to make a prediction based off of the first fight considering it didn't go on for long and was against the cage for most of it. Wouldn't be shocked to see a late TKO tho either from one or the other really.
Nicolau vs. Kape II
Manel Kape, DEC
Kape's got this in the bag.
Miller vs. Benítez
Jim Miller, TKO, R1
I see a flash KO win for Jersey's own. Wouldn't be surprised to see a sub either here but I don't like seeing the amount of KO losses Benitez has @ Featherweight especially to the likes of Fili & Youseff.
Vieira vs. Chiasson
Ketlen Vieira, DEC
Who honestly gives a ****??
Simón vs. Bautista
Ricky Simón, DEC
I feel like Ricky is easily the better of the two and the competition he's faced up until now is gonna show that gap.
Hawes vs. Ferreira
Brunno Ferreira, TKO, R1
I feel like my prediction here is gonna be a lock: Hawes is gonna be doing pretty good on the feet for a minute or two into the 1st and out of the blue is gonna get caught & chinned into the bleachers badly w/ a flat lining KO.
Arlovski vs. Cortes-Acosta
Waldo Cortes-Acosta, DEC
I see this going to a fairly competitive decision that'll leave Cortes-Acosta w/ the dub after narrowingly outpointing Arlovski on the feet. Wouldn't be surprised to see him take a TKO / KO win tho over Andre.
McGhee vs. Bolaños
Marcus McGhee, TKO, R2
Definitely see a finish here either way but gonna more so side w/ McGhee on this one by TKO.
Basharat vs. Lapilus
Farid Basharat, DEC
Both Basharat brothers are a problem for anyone standing in their way. Lapilus is good as well, just don't see him getting through Farid.
Nolan vs. Motta
Tom Nolan, TKO, R2
I easily see a RD 1 or 2 KO here from Nolan
