Welterweight bout: Clay Harvison vs Seth Baczynski

Welterweight bout: Matt Riddle vs Lance Benoist

Not sure who Benoist is, but Riddle has been finding himself in the octagon and coming into his own.

Lightweight bout: Evan Dunham vs Shamar Bailey

Experience – Dunham.

Lightweight bout: Cody McKenzie vs Vagner Rocha

This is super interesting fight. As Cody McKenzie is a practically a 1 trick pony with his customized guillotine the McKenzitine. However, Rocha is a black belt under Pablo Papovich and expect Rocha to get his first victory in the octagon. Difficult not to root for McKenzie though as his move is unique and catches people often.

Middleweight bout: Court McGee vs Dongi Yang

Court McGee coming on strong.

Welterweight bout: Jake Shields vs Jake Ellenberger

Ellenberger is the juggernaut and that name isn’t one that was given trivially. He does not stop. He is difficult to submit as well. Jake Shields’ record speaks for itself. His standup is awkward, but his ground game is lethal. Ellenberger and Shields makes such a closely matched fight that if the odds are HEAVY skewed towards one side or the other its an easy pick to go the other way. I do like Ellenberger because he is better on the feet, probably slight advantage in wrestling, big advantage in speed, but power is even between the two. Sheilds has the experience edge as well as the jits advantage.
