showing following an upset-loss in his promotional debut.<\/p>\n<p>Michel Pereira to Defeat Zach Reese (-155)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

that Strickland isn\u2019t much of a finishing threat unless he decides to fight entirely against type here, but I think he also has the toughness and takedown defense necessary to keep Hernandez from ending things himself.<\/p>\n<p>Ramiz vs. Brahimaj vs. Punahele Soriano Goes Under 2.5 Rounds (-180)<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
