Description

After a week off I am back. Hurts to miss last week and all those favourites, but we are looking to capture some of that same chalky magic this week.

I like Ode and his momentum. He could be a dark horse at 125. Really looking forward to this one. Nam has been tough to finish, but Ode will most likely be too much for him.

Dominick Cruz has been tough to count out, he is the poster boy for comebacks. So his inactivity is treated and looked at differently than others. But Dom is getting old, and he has looked old in his recent fights. Whereas Vera is surging. Dom could out point and out wrestle Vera, but I forsee Vera’s speed, aggressiveness and damaging strikes being too much for Cruz over 5 rounds. I expect this to be Vera’s true coming out party, and the moment Cruz realizes he is no longer in the title picture.
