Storley vs. Musaev
Logan Storley, DEC
Musaev has a good record but hasn't fought the level of competition of Storley who's been in there with some of the best guys in the division and is still young. Storley likely to take the path of least resistance as he usually does and can probably outwrestle Musaev to a decision here.

Braga vs. Gonzales
Gabriel Alves Braga, DEC
Could be a close fight, Gonzales is decent everywhere. I think Braga is the better kickboxer though and Gonzales can't really push a pace on the feet to trouble him there. I think if Wade couldn't really manage to get Braga down consistently then Gonzales might find it hard, but I think the writing on the wall could be on this one early depending on how the first goes. Also Braga's first fight since the death of his coach/father. Favour Braga but not by a whole lot. Don't really see either guy having much finishing equity.

Yamauchi vs. Gracie II
Goiti Yamauchi, TKO, R3
Could be closer than last time, slight worry of Goiti coming off the bad leg injury against MVP and wonder if he might have rushed himself back for the season. BJJ should be pretty even, Goiti better on the feet, cracks hard and should be able to avoid it going there if he wants to. Have to slightly favour him based on that.

Jenkins vs. Kamaka III
Bubba Jenkins, DEC
Bubba should be able to implement a wrestling gameplan to win here. Kamaka is tough and will be hard to finish, so some risk of good cardio taking over the fight late but he's not really much of a finisher, possibility of 29-28 Bubba, I think he should win the first two rounds at a high clip.

Borics vs. Barzola
Ádám Borics, DEC
Not sure about Barzola coming up in weight. He's quite a physical fighter at 135 and I don't think he's going to have that advantage a division up. Don't really see him being able to implement a wrestling heavy gameplan on Borics. Slight concern with the Borics layoff, but I think he should have enough to get a decision here, will probably find Barzola hard to finish.

Khizriev vs. Johns
Timur Khizriev, DEC
Brett is the toughest opponent Timur has faced since a young Bibert Tumenov (possibly tougher than Bibert at that stage) but with Brett stepping up in weight and relying on a grappling gameplan when he wasn't really a particularly big BW this seems a bit too much. Feels like Khizriev will be the one getting takedowns if he decides he wants them, but will more likely pick Brett apart from the outside.

Staropoli vs. Ramazanov
Murad Ramazanov, DEC
Staropoli seems to have improved since getting cut from the UFC, but if he can't stop himself getting cage smushed by Jamie Pickett it's difficult to see how he can have improved enough to stop Ramazanov doing it. I do think he might be able to survive though as his defence seems pretty sound.

Juusola vs. Po****
Luca Po****, SUB, R2
Juusola is kind of small, he's fairly solid but I think a big, strong grappler like Po**** is going to be too much for him in that area.

Diamond vs. Rodrigues
Tyler Diamond, DEC
Good under the radar fight between two underrated and experienced guys. Both good, Diamond has mixed it with higher quality competition and has the wrestling advantage. Otto's BJJ good enough to keep him honest there. Seems pretty 50/50 but gun to my head I lean Diamond to wrestle his way to a decision.

Madge vs. Ward
Brennan Ward, TKO, R2
Brennan should be bigger, not sure why Madge is moving up to 170, Brennan cracks and fights at a good pace, tends to get in trouble with really good wrestling which I don't think Madge really brings.

I guess they had to make room for the Debienne v. Jean fight. It sucks. I wanted to see Po**** in action.

Timur should win but Brett Johns is a really tough test. He was top 15 when he got cut from ufc and has only lost to the best guys in the weight class (sabatello would probably be ranked in ufc as well) 

Johns is also a very strong grappler and hard to outwrestle. Will be a great fight and test to see where timur is really at
