[jipped genes]

Welterweight	Gilbert Burns	vs.	Sean Brady
Women's Flyweight	Jéssica Andrade	vs.	Natália Silva
Featherweight	Steve Garcia	vs.	Kyle Nelson
Flyweight	Matt Schnell	vs.	Alessandro Costa
Lightweight	Trevor Peek	vs.	Yanal Ashmouz

Looks like one of those "nothing" cards but don't sleep on this one.

Burns vs Brady should be good. Brady is a grinder but never stops. On the UFC he has won all but one and that was to the champ Belal.

Andrade vs Silva is a good gal fight

Garcia vs Nelson FOTN material. Both guys on nice win streaks. Garcia is a sniper with all wins in his streak by KO/TKO zero pro subs. Nelson is more well rounded as he has a mix of KO/sub/decision. Both guys are really talented and this one is a banger. I have seen Garcia fight before and dat boy good.

Danger Schnell vs Costa Another great fight. Schnell does not have boring fights. Costa is stepping up and hungry. Both guys are good everywhere and have similar records in their last 4 fights.

Yea, I agree, nice sleeper card...at least for a few good ones.

The Burns/Brady fight should be really good, or at least interesting to see how it plays out.

Andrade/Silva should be a decent fight. I was like Bleh at first, but I didn't realize that Silva is on an 11-fight win streak

Nothing to add on the Garcia/Nelson fight. I'm not sure if i've seen Garcia fight, but I watched at least 1 fight from Nelson, and he was pretty good. It was one of his last 2 fights. He was supposed to fight Kattar for this fight, but Kattar withdrew, and Garcia replaced him.

I'm not sure who Costa is, i'd have to dig more on him to remember, but Schnell is always game despite not the best fighter in the division.


They also have Trevor Peek vs Yanal Ashmouz on the main card. I know i've seen Peek fight, but I can't remember who he was or who he fought without looking into it more, lol. I've never heard of Yanal. It's a lightweight division fight.

I was really pulling for Gilbert. Brady looked really good. Glad I didnt bet this one, I would have lost.
