Prediction Comments

Predictions: 8 of 8 Pending   |   Tied for 1st with 77 others

Tatum vs. Pauga
Zac Pauga, DEC
I think paiva is better than his ufc run. He has good skills but no chin. Tatum lost to Carl seumanutafa in bkmma, so he is probably a fraud

Bennett vs. Pereira
Viviane Pereira, DEC
Would be cool to see pereira back in the ufc

Cross vs. Chavez
Kenneth Cross, TKO, R2
Crosses last fight was so bad. He was forced to be the hammer and just completely fell apart. He should win this one but not too high on his prospects

Hill vs. Ferreira
Handesson Ferreira, SUB, R2
Ferriera has skills to be in the hfc. He is a very good grappler, however he has no chin and is very slow on the feet. I don’t think hill can keep it standing long enough to win tho

Kostyuchenko vs. Stargel
Egor Kostyuchenko, SUB, R2
This guy trains with Sean Brady in Philly, heard a lot of good things about him

Nicholson vs. Seumanutafa
Alex Nicholson, TKO, R1
Say what you want about Nicholson (lack of technique/defensive openings) but the man has otherworldly power, his highlight reel is unlike any other fighters I've seen. Alex is turning around quickly after a bad KO last time and it would be cool if Carl pulled one off for the Bay Area but I just don't see it happening.

Gonzalez vs. Guerrero
Pearl Gonzalez, DEC
Another tough one to call but I'll go with Pearl as she's beaten the far better comp. Although losing to Mazany is unforgivable and she is getting up there in years.

Manfio vs. Moret
Raush Manfio, DEC
Manfio should win this but I would not at all be shocked if Moret managed to pull one off here. The Fight Ready guys are always live.

Tatum vs. Pauga
Zac Pauga, DEC
I get that the Zac Pauga fade is always live after dominating two fights then getting highlight reel starched in both. But Tatum is not on that level on and doesn't even seem to be a big KO puncher. Not to mention he lost to Carl Seumanutafa which I get is not on his pro record but that doesn't make it look any better.

Bennett vs. Pereira
Viviane Pereira, DEC
This is actually a very intriguing W MMA fight and I'm not being sarcastic. I have no idea who will win but for now I'll side with Viviane based on youth and that she's only lost to killers. It is worrying that she has fought at atomweight but she's had a lot of time to bulk up since then.

Cross vs. Chavez
Kenneth Cross, SUB, R1
I'm still surprised how many people were picking Cross to beat Mota but he should win this one.

Hill vs. Ferreira
Handesson Ferreira, TKO, R1
Tyler has been KO'ed by Brett Cooper and a featherweight his last time out. I just wonder what the endgame for Ferreira is, he's too old for the UFC to pick him up.

Kostyuchenko vs. Stargel
Perry Stargel, DEC
I can't trust a can crusher until they've beaten someone with a pulse and I like that he went the distance with Mikey.
