Joaquin Buckley, TKO, R2
Confidence: Medium | I don’t believe 170 is a weight class for Ruziboev he’s gonna be bigger in this matchup but Ruzi will be far slower then Buckley in the striking I believe Buckley is gonna rag doll Ruzi, Ruzi is a good powerful counter striker but Ruzi is a bit stiff in the striking . Buckley is gonna be the better striker he’s gonna be the aggressor this is a big step up for Ruzi and honestly I don’t think he’s ready for it
Menifield vs. Ulberg
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R1
Confidence: Medium | I believe Ulberg will be the better striker in this matchup & Menifeld hits hard but that’s about it, Menifield is a stiff striker who has a chin and most of his KO’s come in brawls and fire fights more then one punch KO power. If Alonzo don’t have power in this fight he’s gonna get smoked and I just don’t believe that shot will be there with as clean as a striker of Ulberg
Ferreira vs. Rębecki
Mateusz Rębecki, TKO, R2
Confidence: High | This is a simple breakdown . Rebeckibisba non stop come forward grappler with nasty ground and pound which opens up his submissions . Ferreira is a grappler with some power who is comfortable on his back, this sets up perfect for Rebecki.

Derrick Lewis, TKO, R1
Nascimento has beat nothing but cans and hopefully we see another highlight reel Derrick Lewis KO here
Buckley vs. Ruziboev
Nursulton Ruziboev, SUB, R2
This is a weird matchup. Ruziboev has looked like a future contender at 185, so not sure why he's moving down to 170 to fight Buckley. If this fight was at 185 I'd take Ruziboev all day long. It's not though and Buckley has looked great at 170, while we don't know how the extra cut will effect Ruziboev. Assuming Ruziboev looks just as good at 170 and picking him here. He's the more well rounded fighter and I think he gets this fight to the ground and finds the finish at some point.
Menifield vs. Ulberg
Carlos Ulberg, TKO, R2
I feel like the odds are a little too wide here. Menifield is extremely dangerous and is definitely live for a KO. I know he's 36, but age doesn't effect these heavier weight classes as much. Ulberg looks like the real deal and he's gonna be the pick here, but I'm nervous about it.
Ferreira vs. Rębecki
Mateusz Rębecki, TKO, R1
Not much to be said here. Ferreira is 40 and struggles with wrestlers. Rebecki is a beast. He's going to take him down and ground and pound him out early.
Caceres vs. Woodson
Sean Woodson, DEC
This should be a fun fight. Woodson is great at keeping range and picking people apart and Cacares has a funky style that could make things a little difficult for Woodson and keep things competitive. Siding with the younger guy, but kind of pulling for Bruce Leroy
Cortes-Acosta vs. Despaigne
Robelis Despaigne, TKO, R1
This is a perfect matchup for Robelis. The UFC clearly wants to push this guy to a title shot and matching him with a guy that doesn't wrestle and isn't extremely technical on the feet gives him a great chance to continue his run.
Hooper vs. Borshchev
Viacheslav Borshchev, TKO, R1
Bet the under in this fight. Either Slava knocks Hooper into another dimension or Hooper gets the takedown and strangles Slava when he tries to stand back up. Taking Slava because Hooper is young and melts under pressure from solid strikers, but I wouldn't at all be surprised at an upset
McKinney vs. Ribovics
Esteban Ribovics, TKO, R2
McKinney usually loses when he's not fighting a can he can't get out of there early(aside from the Frevola fight), and Ribovics is far from a can. I think he weathers the early onslaught from McKinney and finds the finish in the 2nd or 3rd round.
Ricci vs. Pennington
Tabatha Ricci, DEC
Prime Tecia probably wins this fight, but I have to fade an almost 35 year old Tecia coming off of a 2 year layoff and having a baby.
Waters vs. Goff
Trey Waters, DEC
This fight depends on what is more effective... Waters' jab and rangy strikes or Goff's leg kicks. Waters has looked like the more fluid and impressive fighter on tape so I'll take him in a slow paced decision.
Hadley vs. Johnson
Jake Hadley, DEC
This should be a banger. Finally both guys get an opponent willing to stand and bang with them. Give me Hadley in a razor thin war.
Aldrich vs. Hardy
JJ Aldrich, DEC
Hardy has looked great since coming back, but Aldrich has fought and beat the better competition. Coin flip fight, but I'll take the more proven fighter
