 The opening fight is in the Middleweight division featuring Davos "Devious" Kung and Elton "Lost Chain" Korth. Davis comes into the cage for this fight with his last fight being a loss. Davos has a lot of skill in his Muay Thai skills and that will be his advantage over his opponent if used correctly. If Davos keeps the fight in the clinch and wears him down from here and then lands a successful takedown. Elton comes into the cage for this fight with no fights under his belt. Elton comes in with solid boxing and has the hands to pull off a knockout in this fight.







The second fight is in the Heavyweight division featuring Andrea "The Headhunter" Barone and Hulk "PyroManiac" Butane. Andrea comes into his his first fight with exceptional Muay Thai and strong wrestling. Also coming in with a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. The best game plan for Andrea is too stick to his own game plan and keep the momentum on his side rather than his opponents. Hulk walks into his first cage fight with the same skills in both Muay Thai and wrestling. But he also comes in with force behind his punches and that is a key factor in this fight. If he can keep the fight above the ground this is his fight to win.







The third fight is in the Heavyweight division featuring Corey "Gay Man" Dalton and DJ "Action" Bronson. Corey comes in with a loss from his last fight at Carnage 32. Corey comes in with a granite chin and impressive KO power as he shone in his many knockout or TKO victories. Corey can also hold his own with a white belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Corey is a well rounded fighter and is dangerous when standing. But we have seen if you can break his momentum and chin he can go down. DJ comes into this fight with a win at RFC 34: The Danger Zone but know he is a new ORG which is hard for any fighter to adapt. But this bright young star has the cardio to out gas most fighters in his weight class. If the fight goes to the ground I am giving it too DJ for sure.







The fourth fight is in the Welterweight division featuring Tupe "Rage" Fiso and "The Bouzouki Bully" Avgolemono Magiritsa. Tupe comes into this fight after massacring his first three opponents with knockouts and extreme aggression. His only fight that made it too the second round was his last one but it only lasted eighteen seconds in that round! His boxing skills are subpar at the moment and have been proven time and again to be extremely lethal. We have not seen what he can do on the ground but only time can tell. This kid has a lot of momentum on his side and if he has his way in this fight he will come out with his hand raised. Avgolemono comes into the fight with a loss at Carnage 30 and he is looking to come out strong in this one. Avgolemono comes in with power as well and knockouts the plenty. But I still have to give the fight advantage to Tupe on this one.







The fifth fight is in the Heavyweight division featuring Brock Lesnar and James Myres. Brock comes into this fight after a submission wind in a QFC fight and this will be his first fight for any organization. Brock has shown to have great takedowns and if he gets latched on you the night will be over for you really quick. But his disadvantage coming in is his less experience compared to his opponent. James comes into this fight after a knockout loss at Carnage 30. James is a type of fighter who can knock people on there ass quick if he can catch someone off guard. But he has also shown to loss only majorly to knockouts as well. We have not seen his ground game so nobody is certain how he will do in this fight. The ending for this one is a toss up for sure.







The sixth fight is in the Light Heavyweight division featuring Mike Reilly and Leif "The Viking" Erikson. The winner of this fight will have a shot at the Light Heavyweight belt in the future so this is a very important fight for both fighters! Mike Reilly comes in with no losses and both of his wins come from a decision win. So this means that he has a huge gas tank. He has also shown to have a chin as he has been rocked and been able to pull off the win in the end. He also is a good wrestler and is explosive with his movement. Leif comes into the fight with a advantage in experience which is always a factor for any fight. Leif is a more well rounded fighter with skills that have been shown to knockout and apply a successful submission. With this more adaptive fighting style I have to give the advantage to Leif in this fight.







The seventh fight is in the Super Heavyweight division featuring Ivan "Tank" Durak and Alessandro Malatesta. Ivan the Russian native comes into this fight with no losses and two wins. Ivan comes in with explosive and lethal hands that dropped both of his last opponents within the first fifty seconds of the fight. Ivan also comes in with a white belt in Brazilian jiu jitsu and has a granite chin. Both of these help his style of fighting and are huge advantages in any fight. Alessandro comes in with the same record of two wins and no losses. He also comes in looking for the knockout and this fight for sure will not got to the ground. This is going to be a all out war between these two fighters. Alessandro also has a great chin and is a brawler. I am guessing this fight results in a knockout in the first round, but I am not sure who has the advantage here as both fighters are very similar.







The eighth fight is in the Welterweight division featuring Jon Axe and "JPV" Jan Paul Valens. Jon comes into this fight with a TKO loss at Bushido 47: Vilson vs Bunker 3. Looking to redeem himself in this fight with his exceptional cardio and his above average wrestling skills. Jon comes in with excellent boxing and a new haircut! Jon has shown in the past to have problems with his opponents breaking his chin causing him to go down and add another loss to his record. But coming to a new organization this might be the spark he needs to start kicking ass one again! Jan comes into this fight with a TKO victory at DFC Las Vegas 54. He also is coming from a different organization where he was slaying most of his opponents with his impressive submission victories. Jan has a gas tank to match his opponents so he has no problem going into the later rounds. But I think if he can break Jon’s chin he will win this fight!







The ninth fight is in the Light Heavyweight division featuring Djimon "The Boogeyman" Babayega and Gobal Batra. Djimon comes back after losing his title at Carnage 34 after two successful title defenses. Djimon is a cardio machine and can run anyone opponents gas tank out in a few rounds if given the momentum. Djimon comes in with the ability to throw quick lethal blows and the ability to end the fight with a knockout. Djimon has been taken down and if his opponent has superior ground skills can show to give him a lot of problems. Gobal comes into this with with a loss at Carnage 34 as well. This India native has superior wrestling skills then his opponent on paper. If Gobal can move this fight to the ground he will win this fight.







THE MAIN EVENT is in the Middleweight division featuring the current champ Cedric "Bomber" Lancaster and the challenger TheDragon Reborn. Cedric comes in this fight with seven wins and no losses. His impressive win streak includes two successful title defenses. Being a champion for two different organizations is impressive for such a young fighter. Cedric comes with a large amount of strength behind his punches and can end the fight quickly in the first round. With the skills of a solid boxer and love average wrestling he is a well rounded fighter. Cedric likes to control the fight through the clinch and hold you while he mumbles your face in with his fists. The challenger TheDragon comes with a twenty five submission victory at Carnage 34. He had a short run with the title with one successful title defense before losing it to Cedric. TheDragon has a purple belt in BJJ and he has amazing ground submissions and movement. If TheDragon can move the fight to the ground as soon as possible and keep it there he will retain his title here!
