Ryan Spann vs "Smiling" Sam Alvey- I have Spann win by KO/Submission in 2nd rd. Plain and Simple.
Charles Rosa vs Bryce Mitchell- I think it's a tossup, Rosa has a chance to upset him. Experience or Wild Thug Nasty. I will go Rosa 1st rd Submission.
Vincent Luque vs Niko Price- I have Luque to win by decision over Niko price, possible Submission another darse choke. but most likely decision
Michelle "Karate Hottie" Waterson vs Carla Esparza- I have the Karate Hottie Michelle by KO/Submission in 2nd/3rd Rd, chance of decision
Alexey Oleynik vs Fabricio Werdum- I have Russian Oleynik by Submission or KO in 2nd rd now there is real possibility of Decision since both guys are older and looking for submissions and not KO's
Anthony Pettis vs Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone- Two of my favorite fighters hard nosed go forward fighters. I think the 1st round will be feeling out and then we will start to see fireworks in 2nd and 3rd. This fight could go either way, I think we see a decision because it will be very hard to tell you who would win. My lean is the Cowboy Cerrone by KO/Submission in 3rd
Greg Hardy vs Yorgan De Castro- I have Hardy by KO in 1st round Plain and Simple..Very good athlete and each fight getting better in conditioning and working on more MMA, De Castro is big guy but just going to get overwhelmed
Calvin Kattar vs Jeremy Stephen- Kattar by Decision- It's very hard to see Stephens get KO'd and his weight is over by close to 5 pd and I think it will be grind it out fight and Kattar will own all 3 rounds.
Francis Ngannou vs Jairzinho Rozenstruik- The big Ngannou will show us all that he has been working on all around MMA game. He will come out and win either 2nd rd KO or Decision
Cejudo- I have Cejudo by Decision or possible 3rd round KO. Cejudo is world class wrestler and looking to take Cruz to the ground, Cejudo won't beat Cruz standing. Crus is a cheap version of Demetrius Johnson.
TONY FERGUSON VS JUSTIN GAETHJE- Wheres my coin, I need to flip it. Tails- Gaethje Heads Ferguson. Ferguson is very unorthodox all around fighter. 10th planet Jujitsu and Kicks and Punches and flips and everything. Gaethje who is a world class wrestler hasn't used it in fights but he will throw a Thor's Hammer type punch and he has knocked everyone out. Gaethje will be coming in to close distance. 1st round feeling out, Gaethje needs a 1st or 2nd rd KO but if it goes 3-4-5 rounds then I think Ferguson will win by Decision. My Heart wants Gaethje...I really like his game!!

Spann by KO
Rosa by Submission
