    Just seen that Jorge SIlva has been on a helluva losing streak since his fight with Angulo that he did quite well in. Ali should win that fight rather easily, but Silva could pose some early issues if Ali isn't careful or in shape.

    He wishes he was like Floyd. That said Barros might beat him. I thought shot to **** Montiel was mounting a comeback and actually lost a 7-5 type fight. Barros has a herky jerky style and is pretty good. I honestly wouldn't be that surprised if Selby lost this fight.

    Indeed, Selby hasn't been impressive since Gradovich and might be due a loss. He doesn't have a great KO % but I'm not sure that's all down to a lack of power, and might be part due to not really sitting down on his shots. Anyway, whatever the reason, because of his inability to stop oponents his style of fighting does not really allow for an off-night.

    Watch out for his brother though... he's something special

    I believe he will present a legit challenge. Masvidal is not easy to knockout or submit.

    Cerrone betta be ready to bite down for a hard fight.

    I'm really interested to see how Mikey does this weekend. I thought he was a borderline top 10 P4P talent right before his promotional issues, but his inactivity could hurt him. You have to admire him wanting to fight the top tier guys without trying to shake some rust off first.

    Dejan can punch and I'm a little skeptical about how Mikey's chin will hold up at LW (and if he eventually decides to move up to 140.) He looked a little questionable during his time at 130 lbs. Still, he has a significant height and reach advantage on Zlaticanin, so if he boxes from a distance and keeps moving, he should beat him.

    LSC and Frampton will probably be the fight of the night. Leo better be employing some tweaks to his style in the rematch; Frampton is a cerebral fighter and I'm sure will be making adjustments of his own.
