Angelo is very confident in Zalal because of his high fight IQ, incredible defense (only 1.73 significant strikes absorbed per minute), and well-rounded skills. He notes that Errens overcommits and extends while chasing power, which sets him up to be taken down. Zalal is one of Angelo's most confident picks on the card.

Cody is high on Zalal, citing his improved grappling, slick Jiu-Jitsu, and dominant win over Billy Quarantillo. He notes Errens has poor takedown defense (26%) and is one-dimensional. Cody expects Zalal to submit Errens and took Zalal by submission at plus 310.

Zalal has a solid all-around game with good striking, leg kicks, and aggressive grappling, plus high-level cardio training at elevation. Errens has shown flaws in takedown defense and has been out-grinded by strikers. Zalal should mix in takedowns to separate himself and win on the scorecards, though Errens is tough to finish.

Paul agrees, calling Zalal a potential top-five guy. He notes Errens' takedown defense is a massive flaw and Zalal should dominate. Paul took Zalal by submission as well, believing Zalal will take the smart route and not risk striking.

Angelo is confident in Steven Nguyen, believing he is better everywhere in the fight with superior skills, power, and grappling. He notes that Nguyen is a real prospect with heavy hands and slick submissions, while Errens is durable but sets himself up to be taken down. He would include Nguyen in parlays but not the safety parlay due to his UFC debut status.

Big Brady picks Steven Nguyen by default due to Jarno Errens' extremely low volume (1.67 significant strikes per minute). He notes Nguyen is high volume and active, landing over 8 strikes per minute on the contender series. He thinks Nguyen's toughness and activity will lead to a decision win, though he is not in love with Nguyen as a fighter.

Cody picks Nguyen, citing his high volume and cardio. He notes that Errens has low output and poor cardio, often gassing after a strong start. Cody believes Nguyen's constant pressure and striking volume will overwhelm Errens.

Daniel Vreeland picks Steven Nguyen by decision, citing his high output and durability. He criticizes Errens for poor fight IQ, often dropping opponents then ending up on his back. He believes Nguyen's volume will overwhelm Errens over three rounds.

Nguyen is the better overall fighter with high-level striking and good combinations. However, his striking defense is lacking and he is hittable. Errens could make it close, but Nguyen should win a decision by putting together a better body of work. The line at -180 is too wide for comfort, so no bet is recommended.

Paul agrees, highlighting Nguyen's volume (over 100 significant strikes in fights) and Errens' inability to keep pace. He notes Errens' lack of urgency and poor takedown defense. Paul sees Nguyen as a clear play.

Angelo acknowledges Choi's three-fight losing streak and recent TKO loss, but notes that his losses came against solid competition. He highlights Choi's technical striking, leg kicks, and takedown setups. Despite the losing streak, he believes Choi is the better fighter and picks him, but with no bet due to the streak.

Big Brady acknowledges Choi Seung-woo's three-fight skid but believes he is much better than his record indicates, with good striking and power. He thinks Choi has improved his takedown defense enough to keep the fight standing. He is not a fan of Jarno Errens, citing a lackluster debut and disadvantages in volume and power. He expects Choi to outpoint Errens over 15 minutes.

Cody picks Errens as an underdog, noting his Dutch kickboxing style and volume. He thinks Choi's chin is deteriorating and Errens can outwork him. Cody likes the plus money value.

Daniel leans Choi Seung-woo, noting that he is the more skilled mixed martial artist. He mentions that Choi has a habit of dropping his right hand and getting countered with left hooks, and his chin may be damaged. He acknowledges that Errens has a good submission game and takedown defense issues. He is not confident and advises staying away from this fight.

James leans towards Jarno Errens as an underdog, citing Choi's poor durability and defensive technique after being dropped multiple times in recent fights. He believes the fight will be a 15-minute striking affair and trusts Errens' durability and technical striking over Choi's power. He notes the line has moved but originally Errens was at +180, which he sees as value.

The host notes that Choi Seung-woo is on a 0-3 slump, has been finished in two of those fights, and his durability is declining. He highlights Choi's poor striking defense and vulnerability to grappling. Jarno Errens has a judo background and decent power, and the host believes his power and grappling advantage will allow him to pull off the upset. The host mentions that Errens' odds have moved from +210 to +140/+150, indicating public support.

Paul picks Errens, noting Choi's low volume and defensive issues. He expects Errens to pressure and land more strikes. Paul is not confident but likes the underdog value.

Angelo picks William Gomis because Gomis is a counter-striker and Errens likes to come forward, which plays directly into Gomis's strength. He notes Gomis has solid clinch work and is well-rounded, but warns the odds are too wide and Errens is legitimately good. He advises not to look at the betting line and make a decision, and does not consider Gomis a parlay piece.

Big Brady picks William Gomis to win by decision. He notes that Jarno Errens has poor takedown defense and get-up game, and Gomis has a clear path to victory by taking him down and controlling him on the mat. He warns that if Gomis chooses to strike, it could be close, but trusts the wrestling advantage.

Cody picks Jarno Errens as a dog, arguing that William Gomis is a green prospect who was signed on short notice to fill a local spot. He notes that Gomis backs straight up to the cage and swings wild, while Errens has better experience, cardio, and a more well-rounded game. Cody believes the line is too wide and that Errens has a solid chance to win.

Daniel Levi leans toward William Gomis, citing his African physicality and explosiveness, but is cautious due to Gomis's low volume and the fact that both are debutants. He notes that Errens has more volume and leg kicks, but Gomis has the edge in power and grappling. He is not confident in the -215 price.

The host picks Gomis due to his persistent grappling and cardio, expecting him to land takedown after takedown and grind out a decision. He notes Errens has striking advantages but poor defensive grappling. He finds the over 2.5 rounds at plus 100 intriguing.

Paul changes his pick to Jarno Errens after hearing Cody's reasoning, admitting he was initially leaning toward Gomis. He agrees that Gomis is unproven and that Errens has a better chance than the odds suggest. Paul says he may not bet it but will pick Errens for the show.
