Bantamweights
Will Campuzano vs. Chris Cariaso


The Matchup: Campuzano is comfortable on his feet, but Caraiso is compact, stronger on the ground and carries with him a noted muay Thai pedigree. Both bantamweights need a win to stay relevant and, most likely, signed to the organization.

Watch for Cariaso to weather some shots early before getting it to the ground. There, he will be stymied by Campuzano’s length in spots, as he works to pass to superior position and unleash strikes.

The Pick: Capuzano should do enough to pile up points and close the show hard en route to a third-round TKO.
