Angelo picks Tai Tuivasa confidently, calling Louie Sutherland a modern-day Tank Abbott with no skill. He believes Tai's power and experience will overwhelm Sutherland, who was knocked out by Brando Peričić. He hopes Tai's cardio is better after a long layoff and expects a finish.

Big Brady picks Tai Tuivasa to win by decision, though he acknowledges Tuivasa's long losing streak and lack of career seriousness. He notes that Sutherland is a step down in competition and that Tuivasa should win, but expects the fight to get 'greasy' and go the distance. Brady is hesitant due to Tuivasa's recent form.

Cody picks Tuivasa by knockout, noting Sutherland's poor UFC performances and likely lack of drug testing. He believes Tuivasa's power and durability will be too much for Sutherland.

Daniel Vreeland picks Tai Tuivasa to snap his losing streak, but is hesitant due to the risk of laying chalk on a six-fight skid. He believes Tuivasa's experience and power give him the edge, but warns that a loss would be embarrassing for bettors.

Tuivasa has a striking advantage but his ground game is terrible. Sutherland is not a good offensive wrestler but could still take Tuivasa down. Tuivasa's odds have declined and offer no value. The fight likely ends inside the distance but no bet recommended.

The host picks the underdog Sutherland, believing his speed and grappling advantage will allow him to take Tuivasa down and grind out a decision. He notes Tuivasa's poor form and lack of investment, while Sutherland is more serious. The host acknowledges Tuivasa's knockout power but thinks Sutherland can avoid it.

Paul picks Tuivasa, agreeing that Sutherland is a step down and that Tuivasa's KO prop is fair. He notes Sutherland's deflated physique and poor durability.

Angelo picks Brando Peričić based on his professional kickboxing background, athleticism, and size. He admits both fighters are relatively untested at UFC level, but assumes the faster, cleaner, more athletic kickboxer will win. He notes the -260 odds are probably fair but expresses caution due to lack of data.

Big Brady confidently picks Brando Peričić, stating that Peričić has actual skills while Louie Sutherland doesn't seem good at anything. He notes that Peričić trains at City Kickboxing, has good striking, can mix in takedowns, and has good ground and pound. He expects Peričić to pick apart Sutherland and win a decision, though he warns that heavyweight fights can get greasy.

Cody picks Peričić, noting his kickboxing base and Sutherland's lack of wrestling. He expects a finish but warns about jet lag.

Connor leans toward Peričić, agreeing that his straight punches and size advantage should beat Sutherland's brawling. He notes that Sutherland has never been beaten by striking, only by wrestling, but Peričić's technical edge and clinch work could be decisive. Connor also warns that Peričić is raw and could get caught.

Daniel leans Peričić but is not high on him. He thinks Peričić has an edge on the mat and in the clinch, but the line is too high. He expects the fight to go over 1.5 rounds and possibly to decision. He notes Sutherland's toughness and durability.

Daniel Vreeland picks Brando Peričić to win by submission or ground-and-pound. He notes Peričić's edge on the mat and Sutherland's inability to get back up if taken down. He expects Peričić to take Sutherland down and finish him.

Peričić is the better striker but has unknown cardio and grappling. Sutherland is limited but known quantity. Too many unknowns to bet either side at the current odds.

James picks Brando Peričić, but admits bias as he knows him personally. He thinks Brando's power and speed will lead to a knockout, though he worries about the long flight from New Zealand. He expects Brando to win early.

The host picks Brando Peričić by knockout but is hesitant due to the low level of the fight. He acknowledges Sutherland's well-roundedness and potential to grapple, but believes Peričić's power will be the difference. He expects Peričić to land big shots when Sutherland shoots for takedowns, leading to a knockout. However, he advises against betting due to low confidence.

Paul thinks Peričić's striking and size advantage will be too much for Sutherland, who has poor takedown defense and a soft physique. He expects a first-round finish.

The MMA Guru picks Brando Peričić over Louie Sutherland. He notes Sutherland has physically declined since his regional days and is less athletic, while Peričić is more well-rounded and stronger. He expects Peričić to grapple and get a ground-and-pound TKO in the first or second round, though he warns about Sutherland's low kick that broke Walker's leg.

Angelo picks Valter Walker, noting his physical transformation and three consecutive heel hook finishes in the UFC. He believes Walker's wrestling and submission threat will be too much for Luis Saldana, who appears to have lost muscle mass after coming off steroids. Angelo thinks the minus 300 line is reasonable given Saldana's diminished physicality.

Big Brady confidently picks Valter Walker, citing his improvements, size (6'6", 27 years old), and elite wrestling and submission skills, particularly heel hooks. He dismisses Louie Sutherland as a bottom-tier heavyweight with no standout attributes. Brady expects Walker to get an early takedown and secure a first-round submission, making it four in a row.

Cody picks Valter Walker, noting that Sutherland has never been finished but has faced lower-level competition. He believes Walker's wrestling and submission game will be too much, especially if he focuses on takedowns rather than diving for heel hooks. Cody suggests a Walker submission prop at plus 140 as a better bet than the heavy favorite line.

Connor picks Walker, expecting him to shoot takedowns and grapple. He notes that Sutherland is a fearless brawler but has no answer for wrestling, as anyone who has wrestled him has succeeded. Connor also highlights Walker's recent streak of heel hook submissions, suggesting Sutherland is vulnerable to that. He acknowledges Walker is not good but believes he is a bad matchup for Sutherland.

Daniel Vreeland is confident in Walker's submission skills, especially his heel hooks, but is hesitant to lay -335 on a guy who lost to Lucas Brzeski. He thinks Walker's grappling will be too much for Sutherland, who is a brawler with questionable conditioning. He predicts Walker will win, possibly by submission, but calls it a 'pure pick' rather than a betting recommendation.

Lucrative James picks Valter Walker confidently, noting his size advantage and ability to get takedowns. He references Sutherland's recent loss to Slim Trabelsi via grappling, and believes Walker can replicate that with his heel hook threat. He expects Walker to win by decision or submission.

The host considers Sutherland a mediocre opponent who could find success if he avoids Walker's early heel hook danger, but he doesn't think Sutherland can avoid it. He predicts Walker will add another heel hook submission win.

Paul agrees with Cody, adding that Sutherland's physique and past steroid use are concerns. He notes that Sutherland looked deflated at UFC weigh-ins and may not be as durable without enhancements. Paul believes Walker's youth and improvement will lead to a win, likely by submission.

The MMA Guru picks Valter Walker by submission, specifically a leg-lock or heel hook in the first round. He believes Walker is being given layup opponents and that Luis Saldivar (the opponent mentioned, though the transcript says Luis Saldivar but the fight is Valter Walker vs Louie Sutherland; likely a mix-up in the transcript) is not good and looks different from his Tapology picture. He expects Walker to go for the easiest path to victory and get a quick submission.
