Shane Campbell (19-8) vs. Michael Hill (11-6-1): PRO Super Lightweight Title Bout** CAMPBELL PREVIEW
"The headliner should be a real crowd-pleaser. I expect this one to go back and forth, but my money's on Campbell."
Prediction: Campbell wins via submission in the second round.
Christian Larsen (5-2) vs. Grayson Wells (5-3): PRO Heavyweight Title Bout** LARSEN PREVIEW, WELLS PREVIEW
"Larsen has an incredible team behind him at Shaved Bears, and it won't be a simple task to take him out in front of his home crowd."
Prediction: Larsen wins via knockout in the first round.
Tim Smith (14-11) vs. Behrang Yousefi (8-7): PRO 165 pounds SMITH PREVIEW, YOUSEFI PREVIEW
"Yousefi hasn't stepped through the ropes in quite a while, while Smith just fought back in August and is itching to get back on the right side of a scorecard."
Prediction: Smith wins via TKO in the second round.
Matt Krayco (8-8-1) vs. Cole Campbell (3-3): PRO Welterweight
"This could easily be our fight of the night. Two hard-nosed competitors from fantastic camps, but Krayco has that extra spark and is clearly driven."
Prediction: Krayco secures a third-round TKO victory.
Chris Chapman (3-2) vs. Ali Charkie (1-0): PRO 190 pounds
"It'll be an entertaining matchup, but I think Chapman's experience gives him the edge."
Prediction: Chapman takes the fight by unanimous decision.
Jett Grande (0-0-1) vs. Cornelius Krahn (0-0): PRO 165 pounds
"A compelling bout here. The outcome likely hinges on whose strategy gets executed better, but I'm backing Krahn to pull off an upset."
Prediction: Krahn finishes with a second-round knockout.
Phil Engeroff (1-0) vs. Dylan Schellenberg (0-1): PRO Welterweight
"This one should be exciting, though Schellenberg brings solid skills across the board."
Prediction: Schellenberg wins by submission in the third round.
John Moore (2-3) vs. Mac Stroud (1-0): AMATEUR Middleweight
"Moore has faced some serious competition and has a quality camp supporting him. I'm picking Moore here."
Prediction: Moore wins by unanimous decision.
Tony Rojas (0-0) vs. Jose Pangilinan (0-1): AMATEUR Bantamweight
"Not much to go on since Rojas is making his debut and Pangilinan has only one fight under his belt. I'll take Pangilinan because he's had cage time before."
Prediction: Pangilinan wins by TKO in the first round.
