Prediction: correct Daley   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Overall, I still just think Daley is a good striker with nothing else going on. He'll beat the stuffing out of Shirai though.

I'll admit I don't know much about Shirai, but I know enough to be confident with my pick.

First round knockout for Daley.  Surprised he's not fighting more higher level competition.

T-Wood! I think Woodley presents a tough style matchup.  Still inexperienced and hopefully developing & improving, but I might pick Woodley to win the fight.

I know nothing about Shirai so I'm sure he'll come out of no where to me and beat Daley! I really like Daley and feel he takes this fight on his way to a title shot against Nick Diaz

Prediction: correct Daley   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

More interesting question: Can this end more brutally than the KO of Scott Smith? Actually Shirai will probably be cautious and clinch as much as he can if he knows what's good for him.

Prediction: correct Daley   wrong Decision  

Yuya, has the ability to use his ground game to sneak out a victory. If this goes to victory, I think Daley will win viate split decision. If Yuya can't take him down, I think it is nighty-night time for Yuya.

Prediction: correct Daley   wrong Decision  

Daley never looks good on smaller shows (watch his fights at Shark Fights and Impact), but he should still win a decision. I'd love to see him lose though.

No way Shirai survives three rounds. This is going to be a massacre I think.

Prediction: correct Daley   correct KO/TKO   correct Round 1  

Daley missed weight, so this fight is now a three-rounder. 

It doesn't look like that should affect anyone's predictions much, though.
