Rooting for Jan as always but I think rakic will outpoint him in a somewhat competitive yet dull decision, confident in every other pick besides Johnson vs Patrick due to Johnson’s unpredictability and hill vs jandiroba considering the judges seem to have something against Angela.

Katlyn Chookagian, DEC
I think Katlyn fighting style frustrates Ribas. great fight though. 29-28 Uni.
Camacho vs. Torres
Manuel Torres, TKO, R1
Huge flurry straights crosses on the cage, a huge elbow send Camacho down. Ref steps in.
Hadley vs. Nascimento
Jake Hadley, SUB, R2
Rear Naked Choke mid 2nd round.
Araujo vs. Lee
Andrea Lee, DEC
30-27 Uni
Johnson vs. Patrick
Michael Johnson, DEC
Split 29-28x2, 27-30 tough close fight.
Jandiroba vs. Hill
Angela Hill, DEC
Split Dec 29-28x2 28-29 I love Hills pace.
Candelario vs. Taira
Tatsuro Taira, SUB, R1
Late first round triangle choke.
Maximov vs. Petroski
Nick Maximov, SUB, R2
Dominant first round imo, sinks up a RNC in the 2nd.

Jan Błachowicz, DEC
49-46 Domination for the former Champion. Unanimous, Rakic faces a true new level ~ one mixed with hunger to get his belt back. I think Jans fight day size is a huge variable here. Rakic struggles to get his gameplan going.
Spann vs. Cutelaba
Ryan Spann, DEC
29-28 Uni kinda of a odd fight considering their styles I think its a somewhat snoozer.
Smolka vs. Grant
Davey Grant, TKO, R3
Cage strikes, brutal right hands. non stop Smolka struggles to defend ref steps in.

Aleksandar Rakić, DEC
I think Rakic wins this pretty comfortably. as much as I love Jan, he looked horrible against Glover and I can't help but notice that once Aleksandar lands a few hard leg kicks on someone it seems like they don't want to fight anymore. Rocket is gonna be a champ, he has a very bright future

Hadley vs. Nascimento
Allan Nascimento, SUB, R2
Allan is a beast, but he shouldn't be cutting this much weight. It's heavily impacting his performances.
Araujo vs. Lee
Viviane Araujo, TKO, R2
Bruh, didn't y'all see Lee losing to goddamn Modafferi?

Picking with my heart here. Hill is actually going to lose a questionable split decision.
