Parke over Tibau. Tibau has excellent takedowns and is a monster sized LW. The problem with being a monster sized LW is that it requires a monster sized weightcut, as a result, Tibau has a terrible gas tank. I think Parke will lose the first but will win the second and third and get the decision in an upset.

Hall over Stallings. Stallings is a last minute replacement and will get steamrolled.

Benson over Cerrone. This should be a close fight, but I am concerned about Cerrone taking another fight so close to his last fight. Cowboy has also lost twice to Benson previously.

McGregor over Siver. As much as I would like to see the upset, this fight really is meant to showcase McGregor’s skills and set him up for the title shot with Aldo.
