Angelo picks Kauê Fernandes as a 3-to-1 underdog, citing Guram Kutateladze's declining chin and recent struggles. He notes Guram was dropped in his last fight and is not the same prospect he once was. Angelo believes Kauê's forward pressure and power will be too much, though he is not betting the moneyline due to the long odds. He considers prop bets like inside distance or plus 3.5 rounds instead.

Brady sees Guram as a big favorite and expects him to take over as the fight goes on. He notes that Kauê has terrible cardio and takedown defense, so Guram can mix in takedowns and win minutes. Brady predicts a competitive early round but Guram pulling away and winning by decision.

The host believes Kutateladze's Muay Thai and wrestling will nullify most of Fernandes's offense, leading to a decision victory. He emphasizes Kutateladze's overall game and ability to control the fight.

Angelo leans Guram because he is the more technical striker with professional kickboxing experience, but notes ring rust after a year layoff. He thinks Guram will stay outside and be cautious, not looking for a finish. He hopes Guram is a heavy favorite so he can bet on Jordan Vucenic to win inside the distance (decision no action) as a plus-money prop.

Big Brady sees this as a big step up for Vucenic and a stylistic nightmare. He thinks Vucenic won't be able to take down Kutateladze or submit him, as Kutateladze is a great grappler himself. He expects Kutateladze to keep the fight standing and out-strike Vucenic over 15 minutes, winning by decision.

Cody picks Jordan Vucenic as an underdog, noting that Guram Kutateladze has cardio issues and tends to fade after the first round. He thinks Vucenic's durability and striking volume can carry him to a decision win. Cody also mentions that Vucenic is a Cage Warriors champion with good submissions and that Guram may not have improved much. He suggests live betting Vucenic after the first round.

Daniel picks Kutateladze, citing his size and UFC experience as key factors. He notes Vucenic is a featherweight moving up and questions whether he can out-duel Kutateladze physically. He views this as a last chance for Kutateladze to prove himself and thinks he will be slightly more physical.

Vucenic is taking this fight on short notice and moving up a weight class. Kutateladze's strength and overall game should overpower him, winning on the scorecards.

Paul picks Jordan Vucenic, noting that Guram has cardio issues and tends to blow his load early. He thinks Vucenic's striking and durability can allow him to take over in later rounds. Paul also mentions that Vucenic has good submissions and that Guram may not have improved. He acknowledges the short notice but notes that Vucenic stays close to fight weight.

Angelo picks Guram Kutateladze confidently, stating his striking is light years ahead and his takedown defense is some of the best in the division. He believes Elves Brener has no path to victory, as Guram won't get taken down or submitted. He thinks the line should be much higher, like -1100.

Big Brady picks Guram Kutateladze to win by second-round knockout. He sees a massive skill discrepancy, noting Kutateladze went competitive with Mateusz Gamrot and Damir Ismagulov, while Brener's best attribute is grappling, which won't work against Kutateladze's takedown defense. He believes Kutateladze will land repeatedly and eventually finish Brener.

Cody thinks Kutateladze is a legitimate top-15 talent with strong wrestling and physicality. He notes Brenner's win over Zubaira Tukhugov was controversial (all media scored for Tukhugov) and that Tukhugov was an undersized featherweight. Cody expects Kutateladze to win by KO or decision, but acknowledges his injury history and short notice. He still picks Kutateladze.

Daniel confidently picks Kutateladze, citing his superior striking and power. He notes Brener has never been finished but expects Kutateladze to dominate, possibly by knockout or decision. He acknowledges Brener's toughness and submission threat but believes Kutateladze is on a different level, as reflected in the -600 line. He expects a clear win, though he leans decision.

Paul picks Kutateladze but notes the minus-700 price is hard to back. He mentions Kutateladze's layoff and injury issues, but believes his talent is far superior. Brenner's win over Tukhugov was controversial and Tukhugov was out of shape. Paul thinks Kutateladze should win, but it's risky at such short odds.

Angelo picks Guram Kutateladze, citing his powerful striking, kicks, and submission threats. He notes that even when taken down, Kutateladze is active on the ground and can work back up. He believes Kutateladze will frustrate Ismagulov both on feet and ground. He suggests betting on Kutateladze moneyline or safety net bets like 'wins inside distance decision no action' or plus 3.5 rounds.

Big Brady picks Damir Ismagulov to win by decision, contingent on a good weight cut. He notes Ismagulov has excellent fight IQ, volume, and striking defense, while Kutateladze is powerful but low volume. He expects Ismagulov to be the minute winner on the feet and can mix in takedowns. He expresses concern about Ismagulov's weight cut and past eye issue.

Cody picks Ismagulov, citing his technical striking, excellent chin, and wrestling defense. He notes Kutateladze's cardio issues and two-year layoff, and believes Ismagulov will outpoint him over three rounds. He suggests Ismagulov by decision as a prop.

Daniel Levi is confident in Damir Ismagulov, praising his elite striking defense (1.9 strikes absorbed per minute), 100% takedown defense, and sharp boxing. He believes Ismagulov is a potential top-five talent and will outpoint Guram Kutateladze, who is tough but less polished. Levi notes Kutateladze's kicking game is dangerous, but thinks Ismagulov's fight IQ and experience will carry him to a unanimous decision. He is considering a bet on Ismagulov.

Paul picks Kutateladze as a dog, noting his training with Khamzat Chimaev and his power. He thinks Kutateladze can walk through Ismagulov's shots and land heavier strikes. He grabbed the line at +150 and believes the volume difference will be close, giving the edge to the Georgian.

Big Brady picks Gamrot as the more technical fighter with good striking defense and accuracy. He notes Kutateladze is dangerous but very hittable, and Gamrot's defense should keep him safe. He predicts a decision win for Gamrot, though he thinks the line might be a bit wide given Kutateladze's danger.
