Connor picks Emmers, noting his solid boxing and wrestling base. He thinks Miranda's gambit style of sacrificing everything for a submission is unlikely to work against a competent fighter like Emmers. He compares Miranda to Derek Minter and Terence McKinney, noting that his best wins are against cans.

Angelo is very confident in Morgan Charrière. He praises Charrière's explosive striking, takedown defense, cardio, and scrambles. He believes Charrière will dominate, as Miranda is a one-dimensional BJJ specialist who is comfortable on his back but will get outstruck and controlled.

Big Brady picks Morgan Charrière by second-round knockout, noting Miranda is a round-one submission threat but has poor takedown defense and is stepping in on short notice. He expects Charrière's superior striking and grappling to overwhelm Miranda, dropping him and finishing him in the second round.

Cody passes on betting the moneyline due to Charrière's high price (-700) and his history of close decisions. He notes Charrière's low volume and tendency to leave fights to the judges. He might look at props but doesn't have a strong pick.

Connor picks Charrière because he believes Charrière's improved aggression and takedown defense will be too much for Miranda, who is a one-dimensional grappler. He notes that Charrière has never been submitted and has only lost close decisions, while Miranda tends to give up position in pursuit of submissions. Connor points out that Miranda's striking is poor and his path to victory is narrow, while Charrière should be able to outwork him over three rounds.

Daniel Vreeland picks Morgan Charrière to win by knockout. He believes Charrière is a better striker with good durability and cardio, while Miranda is a first-round finisher who fades. He thinks Charrière will stuff takedowns and land a body kick or other strike to finish Miranda.

JP picks Morgan Charrière because he thinks Charrière is better everywhere and has fought better competition. He notes Miranda is a submission specialist but Charrière is better on the ground and feet. He also jokes about Miranda's mustache and age (34). He expects Charrière to win easily.

Paul picks Charrière to win but acknowledges the price is too high. He notes Charrière's durability and power, and Miranda's susceptibility to submissions. However, he warns that Charrière's low volume and close decision history make -700 a terrible bet. He expects Charrière to win but not at that price.

The MMA Guru picks Morgan Charrière over Gabriel Miranda, noting Charrière's good performances against Paul Hughes and Venik. He criticizes Miranda's age (34) and lack of quality wins. He predicts a TKO win for Charrière.

Angelo picks Shane Young because he trusts his cardio and takedown defense. He notes that Shane looked stiff in his last fight after a layoff but defended six takedowns before giving one up. The ground gap is big if Gabriel gets it to the mat, but Angelo thinks Shane's takedown defense should hold up.

Big Brady picks Shane Young but is hesitant due to the price. He notes Miranda's early success but fades quickly, and Young's takedown defense should keep it standing. He thinks Young's striking is superior and will pick apart Miranda as the fight goes on. He predicts a second-round knockout.

Cody picks Miranda as a value underdog, noting that Young is a limited kickboxer with poor takedown defense. He believes Miranda's grappling and size advantage will be the difference, and that he can win by submission or decision. Cody sees this as a dog pick and likes the plus money.

Daniel Levi picks Shane Young confidently, citing his durability, cardio, and high volume. He notes that Miranda has never won a decision and tends to wilt in later rounds. Levi believes if Miranda doesn't submit Young in the first round, Young will take over and win by decision. He references Young's ability to survive against top competition like Volkanovski.

Lucrative James thinks Shane Young will win but is not confident enough to bet at the current juice. He notes Young often goes to decision and doesn't push pace anymore, while Miranda fights like a madman and could force a finish. James considered the 'doesn't go to decision' prop at -170 but didn't like the odds. He mentions Young decision at +200 as not bad, but overall he doesn't have a great read on the fight.

Shane Young is on a three-fight losing streak but faces Gabriel Miranda who has poor gas tank management and tends to fade after the first round. Miranda is aggressive early but if he doesn't secure a submission, he gasses and Young will have target practice. Young should avoid early grappling onslaught and finish in the first or second round. The fight doesn't go to decision is a favorite spot.

Paul picks Miranda, agreeing that Young is uninspiring and that Miranda's grappling should be the key. He notes that Miranda had a tough debut but should be better with a full camp at 145. Paul believes Miranda can get takedowns and control the fight.

Angelo picks Benoît Saint Denis because he is the better MMA fighter and has good wrestling and top pressure. He warns that Benoît should avoid going to the ground with Miranda, who is a slick BJJ guy. He hopes Benoît keeps it standing and uses elbows from top if it goes to the ground. No bets on this fight yet.

Big Brady picks Benoît Saint Denis to win by finish in the second round. He notes that Miranda is dangerous early with submissions but gasses after the first round, and Saint Denis can weather the storm and take over. He expects Saint Denis to eventually finish Miranda via TKO or submission once Miranda tires.

Cody picks Benoît Saint Denis confidently, citing his durability, wrestling, and pressure. He notes that Gabriel Miranda has a padded record with wins over low-level competition and has never faced anyone near Saint Denis's level. Saint Denis is a strong grappler with good cardio, and Miranda's only path is a submission off his back, which is unlikely. Cody likes the over 1.5 rounds prop and believes Saint Denis will dominate.

Daniel Levi is confident in Benoît Saint Denis, citing his toughness and size advantage. He notes that Miranda is too small for lightweight and that Saint Denis will likely dominate with wrestling and pressure. He expects Saint Denis to cover the -285 price.

The host is confident in Benoît Saint Denis due to his relentless pace, cardio, and finishing ability. He notes that both fighters are early finishers, but Saint Denis's superior cardio will allow him to outlast Miranda, who tends to fade after the first round. He expects a finish in the second or third round.

Paul also picks Benoît Saint Denis, agreeing with Cody. He highlights Saint Denis's durability and grappling, and notes that Miranda's record is suspicious. Paul is concerned about the -275 price but thinks Saint Denis should win, possibly by submission.
