The anticipated rematch between current champion Dillashaw and former champion Barao for the Bantamweight title caps off the night.

Tate should win the fight because…

Tate and Eye are both highly ranked in the female 135 lbs divison, with each vying for a title fight against current champion Rhonda Rousey. Tate is more finesse than her opponent Eye, who primarily relies on striking to win matches. Tate has the slight advantage due to her superior ability to defend against strikes and much better grappling skills.

Pick: Tate

Edson Barboza vs. Paul Felder

Odds: Barboza -130, Felder +110

Barboza should win the fight because…

Two strikers go head-to-head in a lightweight matchup. Both fighters have knockout power and will need to be at their best defensively, to avoid getting knocked out. Felder has slightly better accuracy than Barboza and each fighter lands the same amount of significant strikes per minute. Where Barboza gets the edge over Felder is from his defense and ability to absorb hits. This match will be an exciting one and get for bettors who enjoy MMA prop betting.
