Angelo picks Josiane Nunes over Priscila Cachoeira. He notes both are similar power-punchers, but Nunes hits harder, is tougher, and doesn't absorb as many strikes. He suggests the under 2.5 rounds as a potential bet since Cachoeira could get finished.

Big Brady picks Josiane Nunes but with very low confidence, stating he would never bet on this fight. He acknowledges Priscila Cachoeira's toughness and durability but notes she absorbs a lot of strikes (43% striking defense) and is very hittable. Brady thinks Nunes is the better fighter, younger, and will land more significant shots, possibly hurting Cachoeira. However, he does not trust either fighter and expects a competitive brawl. He predicts Nunes wins by decision, calling it a potential Fight of the Night.

Cody picks Eric McConico as a dog, citing Cody Brundage's tendency to quit and his uncoachable nature. He notes that Brundage has low volume and poor cardio, while McConico has a deep gas tank and can take over late. He believes McConico can survive early rounds and win by decision or late finish.

Daniel does not make a clear pick for this fight. He discusses the matchup briefly but does not state a preference or bet.

The host leans with Cachoeira, citing she has more tools in the shed, especially in striking, and her durability is good. He expects her to land nasty strikes and win on the scorecards.

Paul also picks McConico, noting that Brundage has a history of quitting and is moving up to 205, which may affect his cardio. He believes McConico's body work and volume will wear on Brundage. He sees value in the dog price and expects McConico to win if he can avoid an early knockout.

Angelo picks the underdog Josiane Nunes, describing her as a bowling ball who only moves forward and throws bombs. He thinks the odds are too wide in favor of Cavalcanti due to recency bias, and that Cavalcanti doesn't like pressure. He notes that Nunes lost her last fight because a giant held her against the cage, but doesn't see that happening here. He suggests a plus 3.5 bet on Nunes, similar to the Dan Hooker bet.

Cody picks Cavalcanti because of her reach, speed, and striking technique. He notes that Nunes is short and has to close distance, which plays into Cavalcanti's range game. He also uses MMA math: Cavalcanti dominated Zara Fairn, while Nunes had a competitive fight with Fairn. He thinks Cavalcanti will outpoint Nunes and win a decision.

Daniel Vreeland picks Jacqueline Cavalcanti, citing her significant size and reach advantage over the much shorter Nunes. He notes Cavalcanti's high volume and well-rounded skills, while Nunes is too small for the division and will be bullied.

Brevin picks Cavalcanti by decision, noting she is the bigger fighter and a better striker with range. He dismisses Nunes due to her loss to Chelsea Chandler, which he finds disqualifying. JP agrees, adding that Nunes is much smaller and Cavalcanti is a good striker who is very rangy. Both expect the fight to go the distance.

Paul agrees with Cody, noting that Nunes was outworked by Chelsea Chandler. He thinks Cavalcanti's volume will be the difference. He also mentions that women's favorites have been winning at a high rate this year, so he's comfortable backing the favorite here.

Angelo argues that Nunes looked worse in her last fight (barely beating a 40-year-old) than Chandler did (losing to a top-five opponent). He thinks Chandler is tough, powerful, and will be giant in this fight. He notes the over 2.5 rounds line is only -120 and expects a decision, as both are tough and Nunes is not a finisher. He may bet on Chandler if she becomes an even bigger dog, and also consider the over.

Big Brady picks Josiane Nunes to win by decision, but is not confident. He notes Nunes' size disadvantage but thinks her striking and power will be enough if she stuffs takedowns. He does not trust either fighter and will not bet on this fight.

Cody picks Chelsea Chandler, citing her size and physicality advantage. He notes Nunes is one-dimensional with an overhand left and has been taken down by lesser wrestlers. He expects Chandler to use her ground game and win by decision, but warns about Chandler's weight cut to 135 lbs.

The host sees this as striker vs grappler, with Chandler being much bigger and stronger. He expects Chandler to use her strength to bully Nunes against the cage, drag her to the ground, and assert top pressure to open up a TKO opportunity.

Paul also leans toward Chandler, noting Nunes will be dwarfed. He compares Nunes to a female version of Ilir Latifi, with no neck and a one-dimensional style. He thinks Chandler can press her against the cage and make it ugly, but emphasizes the weigh-ins are important for both fighters.

Big Brady is very confident in Nunes, calling it one of the lowest level fights he's seen. He notes Fairn has been finished in both UFC losses in the first round, has no takedown defense, no ground game, and terrible striking defense with low hands and no head movement. Nunes is much better and should win by first-round knockout, either by walking forward and landing big shots or by grappling. He expects violence and a quick finish.

Cody picks Josiane Nunes confidently, expecting her to smash Zarah Fairn. He notes Nunes' power and aggression, and says Fairn has been finished early in both UFC fights. He thinks Nunes will finish early, possibly by TKO. He mentions Nunes' size disadvantage but says her pressure will be too much. He bet the under 1.5 rounds and under 2.5 rounds.

Connor picks Nunes, believing her aggression and power will overwhelm Fairn. He notes Fairn is measured and slow-paced, and may not handle Nunes' pressure. He expects a ugly clinch fight where Nunes lands devastating shots.

Paul picks Josiane Nunes but with some hesitation, noting the trap line feel. He says Fairn has a reach and height advantage and could potentially strike. He mentions Nunes' limited grappling and that she might not take Fairn down. He thinks Nunes should win but wouldn't put her on a parlay. He says Fairn is not very good but could cause problems.

The Guru is confident Nunes will starch Fairn by KO. He highlights Nunes' punching power, saying she 'throws punches like a man,' and notes she showed good cardio and grappling escapes against Ramona Pascal. Fairn hasn't fought since February 2022 and is coming off a TKO loss. The Guru also points out that taller female fighters often leave their chin up against shorter opponents, making them vulnerable to Nunes' power. He predicts a first-round KO.

Big Brady picks Josiane Nunes to win by first-round knockout. He notes Nunes has power and aggression, and that Pascual's competition has been very low level. However, he is hesitant because Pascual has improved training at Syndicate MMA and is much bigger. He also flags that Nunes has been taken down and gassed out in the past. He calls the fight 'sketchy' and says he doesn't know enough about Pascual to be confident.

Cody picks Nunes confidently, citing her pressure, power, and durability. He notes Pascual's low level of competition and poor takedown defense. Cody expects Nunes to win by knockout or decision, but hesitates due to women's MMA volatility.

Daniel Levi picks Josiane Nunes to win. He notes Nunes has one-hitter-quitter power rare for women's divisions, and that Pascual has not faced that level of competition. Levi acknowledges Pascual's size and ground game as potential threats, but believes Nunes' power and experience will be too much. He expects a spectacular finish.

The host leans with Pascual as an underdog, believing her grappling will be the key. He notes that Nunes has been taken down easily in the past and that Pascual should be able to drag the fight to the ground and control her there. However, he has concerns about Pascual's level of competition and is not confident enough to bet, but he considers the decision prop at +350.

Paul picks Nunes, noting her nuclear left hand and aggressive style. He believes Pascual is a warm body taking the fight on short notice and expects Nunes to finish her. Paul considered the knockout prop but found it juiced to -110.

Big Brady picks Bea Malecki, citing a massive size advantage (7 inches height and reach). He notes Malecki has fought better competition and has a solid ground game, while Nunes is very small for the division with poor takedown defense. He believes the size will be the key factor and predicts a decision win.

Cody picks Malecki, citing her size, reach, and Muay Thai background. He notes Nunes' lack of grappling and believes Malecki can keep the fight standing and land strikes at range. He acknowledges Malecki's cardio issues but thinks she will be too big.

Malecki has advantages in striking, size, and strength. Nunes is flat-footed and relies on opponents gassing, but Malecki has a solid gas tank. I think Malecki can finish Nunes, especially in the clinch with knees. I'm picking Malecki inside the distance, and the under 2.5 rounds is a good spot.

Paul leans toward Nunes as a dog, noting her toughness and pressure. He questions Malecki's takedown defense and overall MMA game, but admits the size difference is a major concern. He ultimately suggests passing on the fight.
