MMA 100 DIME FIGHT Considering Oleynik’s submission skills, this should all come down to Lewis’ takedown defence which is very strong. Oleynik is an unorthodox striker but very effective when the exchanges get loose and scrappy. However, the stand-up battle will be controlled by Lewis who will conduct a slow tempo looking for that killer blow and if the fight does slip into a brawl, Lewis should punish Oleynik in brutal fashion. So, if Oleynik can take Lewis down, expect him to wrap up a submission but the game plan for Lewis is clear and one he has a lot of practice in. If he keeps the fight standing, expect a slow fight but over five rounds, he only needs to find the chin once.

MMA 100 DIME FIGHT MILLENDER Millender has had some impressive runs in his career, including a nine fight winning streak that included “Siyar the Great” at UFC 232. Since then he’s 1-2 and even though he picked up a win in his Bellator return it was at a scheduled catch weight of 180 pounds. He has knockout power (six of 18 wins) but rarely shows it (his last three wins are by decision). Homasi is “live by the sword, die by the sword” in his bouts — nine of 13 wins via knockout, five of eight losses the same way. For Millender to prevail he needs to use every bit of his 6’2” height and 76-inch range to keep the smaller Homasi (6’1,” 72”) at bay and hit takedowns to neutralize his power. If Homasi uses footwork to avoid the reach and cut angles, his precision striking will make it academic. By KO

MMA 75 DIME FIGHT OSBOURNE -140 Three consecutive first-round finishes brought Ode Osbourne (8-2) to “Contender Series,” where he squared off with LFA veteran Armando Villareal in July. Despite ending up on his back because of a persistent takedown attack, Osbourne walked away with a contract after tapping his man with an armbar late in the first. He has finished seven opponents as a professional, six of them in the first round. Pitting a strong-looking prospect against someone reeling from consecutive losses generally indicates a showcase fight, but this is legitimately good matchmaking. Osbourne’s takedown defense and hands-low stance are his two biggest points of concern, and both of them could prove problematic in the face of Kelleher’s high-volume attack. Should Osbourne get too cheeky with his dynamic striking, Kelleher could very easily grind his way to an ugly victory. Kelleher is, however, still coming off of two brutal losses and a lengthy layoff, and Osbourne has the goods to catch him before he can shake off the rust. Expect “The Jamaican Sensation” to get the early tap, either via club-and-sub or by punishing a takedown attempt. Submission 2nd Round

A 16-month layoff followed, after which “Bullet” fought veteran Brandon Moreno to a draw in Mexico City. He has never gone the distance in victory, submitting seven. Get ready for some absolutely wild scrambles between these two. Elliott’s ground shenanigans are well-documented and Askarov — even if he was lucky to escape with a draw against Moreno — is smooth as hell in offbeat positions. I know predicting an exciting Elliott fight is like predicting that the sun will rise tomorrow, but trust me, he and Askarov will make something special (also something that probably won’t last too long). Elliott’s been leaving his neck out in transition recently and that won’t fly against “The Bullet.” Askarov wraps up something unpleasant mid-scramble. Submission 2nd Round

MMA 75 DIME FIGHT ALESKA CAMUR -107 The 24-year-old Camur looks the goods, but he isn’t a complete product quite yet, and Ledet could prove problematic for him. “El Blanco” has massive edges in height and reach, plus the jab to make full use of them. Unfortunately for Ledet, expecting him to fight to the best of his abilities is a bit of a pipe dream — he sleepwalked past far inferior opponents in Chase Sherman and Azunna Anyanwu, nearly losing the decision through inactivity against the latter. To make matters worse, Ledet just suffered his first-ever knockout loss, so there’s no telling where his head’s at. Ledet at his best wins this pretty comfortably, keeping the shorter Camur on the end of his jab and neutralizing the latter’s explosive right hand. I’m done expecting Ledet’s best, though. Camur outworks a lackadaisical Ledet until a money shot hits home. 2nd Round TKO

Without that pressure game, he’ll have to contend with a more proven and craftier boxer who (while he isn’t defensively great) does more to keep from getting hit than Smith does.

Iaquinta is proficient in everything Cerrone hates; namely, forward pressure, body shots, and Octagon control. Conversely, “Cowboy” can easily expose “Ragin’ Al’s” surprisingly inept submission defense if he can use his wresting to disrupt his opponent’s timing, or catch Iaquinta getting greedy with that overhand right. When you look over the course of their respective careers, it’s hard to bet against Cerrone when — at least at lightweight — he consistently fires on all cylinders. Expect an early firefight that leads to a cage scramble and eventually, a “Cowboy” submission.

MMA 100 DIME FIGHT ZAHABI -150 Vince Morales (8-3) came up short on the Contender Series, badly hurting Domingo Pilarte but ultimately succumbing to the taller man’s venomous grappling. After a victory in Bellator, Morales answered the call when Frankie Saenz suffered an injury, facing and falling to Song Yadong on short notice in Beijing. He has knocked out five pro opponents and submitted another two. Zahabi is still a solid fighter and his grappling skill makes him a threat to the striking-focused Morales. The question is how good he’ll look after the huge layoff. Though I have my concerns on that front, the stylistic matchup is far enough in his favor that I’m comfortable picking him. Zahabi failed to impress against other strong grapplers in Vieira and Ramos. Against a striking specialist with a limited ground game, I expect him to look a lot better. He wears Morales down for a round and a half or so before locking up a decision.

MMA 100 DIME FIGHT BENEIL -199 Dober’s primary strategy in this match up should revolve around surviving the first round. In those opening five minutes, Dariush is legitimately one of the nastiest men on the roster: he heaves massive power shots and is always looking to strangle. Unless a perfect counter connects, Dober is unlikely to win the opening frame. If he can survive it, though? Dober is a surprising big, strong Lightweight and throws strikes endlessly. Dariush, meanwhile, seems to fall victim to his own aggression, slowing down dramatically if the early finish does not emerge. If Dober can see the latter half of this fight, he’s very likely to do well, perhaps even well enough to knock his foe out. Outlasting Dariush is clearly Dober’s path to victory, but that’s not an easy trail to walk.

100 DIMES DONKEY FOY Rakhim Chakhkiev is a great soft-paw fighter that packs a heavy punch. Ola Afolabi is a joke, who got lit up in the first round by Victor Ramirez. Rakhim fights out of Russia, and like to use a side stance, similar to a karate style of fighter. It will be difficult for Ola to exchange with Rakhim, because he will make you fight his way! Ola is slow, and not very aggressive. He doesn't use his size to control the fights. Rakhim likes to come in with his right, and left cross to the head, and bob to the body. Rakhim also likes to step into any fighters circle, and utilize his bob and weave fake, and counter big punches on the inside. Rakhim could pull the KO here.

BOXING 40 DIMES MISMATCH Antonio has won 7 of his last 9 fights by KO. Antonio likes to hit the body, and combo to the face. Antonio hits very hard, and his punches are crisp and clean. Antonio likes to bop, and strike, pushing his opponent back. One of the biggest problems i see with Soto, is his style of fighting. He likes to fight from the distance, and you can't play defense for the whole fight. Antonio should pull the easy victory, and possible KO in the later rounds.

BOXING 50 DIMES FIGHT TODAY'S WINNER: LEO SANTA CRUZ -152 Leo is coming into this fight with a 3 inch advantage. Abner has struggled in the past against the taller fighters. Abner has been great getting to the body, but it's going to get tough for Abner to jab his way on the inside. Abner has a tendency to put his weight on his front foot, giving Leo to put up points with his jab! I expect Abner to get frustrated, and will get sloppy getting on the inside. Abner has the tendency to pause when in fighting within the clinch, and this could be deadly for a uppercut by Leo. Leo takes the win here.
