Demetrious Johnson vs. John Dodson
Awesome fight. The joke is people refer to this as the kids division. So much speed and agility going on at this weight class its amazing. I’ve got Dodson in the underdog position here. Mainly due to the ability to KO people in this division, while Mighty Mouse is more of that take it to the 5th round fighter. Its very difficult to finish guys in this division compared to other divisions, so expect this to go into deep rounds, but Dodson has that KO power in his back pocket so I think its a good bet here.
Quinton “Rampage” Jackson vs. Glover Teixeira
Teixeira is a favorite in this fight. Jackson has been getting discounted the last few fights, but the spread tends to tighten up closer to fight time due to Rampage fans dropping money on him. I think Rampage has a shot here as Teixeira hasn’t fought someone of Rampage’s caliber. The problem has been Quinton’s cardio has been garbage for I don’t know how long and Glover looked fantastic against Teixeira. If Moldanado’s punches were Rampage’s there is a good chance Glover would have been KO’d in this fight. As Fabio is technically a weight class lower and should be there instead.
Anthony Pettis vs. Donald Cerrone
This is going to be a good fight, both fighters will put a pounding on each other. Pettis is more dynamic, faster, but smaller than Cerrone. Cerrone takes hits while Pettis will avoid when needbe.
Pettis is slight favorite here, I think thats fair. This one goes to decision in Pettis favor.
Erik Koch vs. Ricardo Lamas
T.J. Grant vs. Matt Wiman
TJ Grant is probably a little more grindier (sic) while Wiman is more active. I’m leaning towards Grant here.
Clay Guida vs. Hatsu Hioki
Guida.
Ryan Bader vs. Vladimir Matyushenko
Bader is a heavy favorite, I wouldn’t take Bader in a bet here, due to the risk, but he will probably win. If I was going to place, it would be with Vlady.
David Mitchell vs. Simeon Thoresen
None.
Mike Russow vs. Shawn Jordan
Mike Russow is going to win this. Old vs new, but I got the old guy. Some might play Jordan here in the underdog position, but I still like Russow to win this.
Pascal Krauss vs. Mike Stumpf
None.
Rafael Natal vs. Sean Spencer
None.
