If Doumbe loses again here hopefully this experiment is over. PFL has actual talent they could be trying to push instead of a 31 year old kickboxer trying to learn MMA on the fly. 

Also really pulling for Bilharino. He will be a young 34 next week considering he's missed +4 years of his prime. To this day he has one of the greatest finishes ever on DWCS that didn't earn a contract. Guy is a really good striker who's probably getting to far along in age to get to the UFC and make a run, but I've always enjoyed watching him.

Predictions: 9 of 9 Winners, 3 Perfect, 540 Points   |   Tied for 175th

Mix vs. Magomedov II
Patchy Mix, SUB, R3
I'm a big fan of both guys. Magomed is such a little billygoat who hates to lose and has well-rounded skills. Mix is perhaps the best bantamweight in the world right now. I think this will be a good fight and look pretty much like the first one, but Magomed has earned his shot at the title for sure.

Doumbé vs. Willis
Cédric Doumbé, TKO, R2
Willis is not bad, this could definitely be a trap fight for Doumbe. However Doumbe looked pretty good in his last fight, it was very close against a bad stylistic matchup for him. I don't think he'll walk through Willis on the feet, but he definitely has the advantage and Willis likely isn't as good a wrestler as Baki.

Babene vs. van Steenis
Costello van Steenis, DEC
Tough one, Van Steenis lacks urgency sometimes and Babene does not have that issue, but I think Van Steenis can win a decision on the feet.

Gouti vs. Colgan
Archie Colgan, DEC
Good test for Colgan, Gouti has been solid in Bellator.

Barnaoui vs. Yachi
Mansour Barnaoui, DEC
Hopefully Barnoui gets back on track! His losses aren't to bad fighters but he hasn't looked great lately.

Wasnt very close, Baki was heading straight to a UD before that incident. Doumbé had no answers on the ground.

Baki was gassing badly as well and even got dropped. I picked him with high confidence and he was starting to lose that fight
