Edit: also I just remembered, I think his wrestling upside is a little overrated. Obviously getting outgrappled by vergara is a really bad look, but it’s important to note KR was compromised from body shots & ended on bottom from a failed takedown. He was likely taking his time to recover before he exploded up. And on dwcs he showed some very dynamic getups & used a lot of explosions to get to his feet. Heili has really only had success holding people down for longer than a minute in his first two fights. I think KR should have enough energy to get to his feet should he get takendown
@rah yeah the kicks are the reason I’m on the other side. I remember watching the vergara fight and every time he would pressure KR, KR was blasting kicks to his body in between combinations. I think that’s really going to give Heili issues and also deter him from walking forward

Ayy brings up a lot of good points though. Heili gets hit a lot, is low volume, and swings for the fences. Despite throwing lots of power shots he's only ever knocked down Croom, which is also his only finish. It's really not hard to picture a reality where Kleydson just pieces him up for 2 rounds, rendering whatever happens in the 3rd all but irrelevant unless Heili can find a late finish.

Kleydson is going to put a serious beating on the poor guy.

I don't get every pick right. I sometimes get picks wrong.
But what I am brilliant at is picking spots I am very confident about and hammering good bets

Piera Rodriguez, DEC
Without overthinking it, Piera winning by decision seems most likely. Better success at the UFC level and should have the wrestling to dictate where the fight goes. Carnelossi is a very tough, physical fighter though, so I wouldn't be shocked if she's able to gut out a win, especially if she's able to find a finish by capitalizing on Rodriguez somehow slowing down in rounds 2 or 3. Piera isn't a world beater by any means. With all of that said, though, I'm more willing to go with the square pick. May be worth throwing a few bucks on Carnelossi ITD, though.
Alatengheili vs. Rodrigues
Alatengheili, DEC
Kleydson has the on-paper advantages, and this is certainly a winnable fight for him. He's more "explosive", probably faster and has the finishing upside (once again, on paper). However, Heili is very tough and has performed well against some tough outs. I'm willing to go out on a limb and trust Heili's toughness and experience, and say that it allows him to grind out a win against an opponent who's no stranger to being on the wrong side of a close decision.
Ducote vs. Demopoulos
Emily Ducote, DEC
Ducote has very solid TDD and is clearly the better striker. Demopoulos isn't known for her wrestling, nor is she known for her striking. Ducote is hittable, and Vanessa's aggression could allow her to take round 1 from her, but it's hard for me to see her losing here unless Demopoulos gets another gift decision. Hoping that isn't the case...

Oumar Sy, DEC
Don't have much of an opinion this one. Tokkos seems middling and is coming in on just a few days notice. Sy will have a massive reach advantage, more athleticism and just overall, seems to have more upside.
Vidal vs. Gatto
Melissa Gatto, DEC
I understand the argument for betting on Vidal, but personally, I don't really get it. Gatto is the better fighter in virtually every aspect, and despite moving up in weight, doesn't seem like she'll be at that much of a size disadvantage. Vidal is basically a brawler with low kicks and a penchant for attacking leg locks. Idk about yall, but I'd rather put my faith in the chick who didn't get out struck by the dreadful Monserrat Rendon.
Magomedov vs. Alves
Abus Magomedov, TKO, R1
Neither man is particularly trust worthy, but it's especially hard to trust a guy with the mileage, attrition and current form of Alves, let alone one who is an undersized middleweight by comparison to his opponent.
