Predictions:

Jones over Matyushenko by 2nd Round TKO. I can definately see VMAT pulling off the upset here, but I think Jones catches him with one of his unorthodox strikes and swarms.
Okami over Munoz via 2nd Round TKO. I think Okami switching to Team Quest has helped him with his killer instinct issue and gets a second straight stoppage victory.
Ellenberger over Howard via 1st Round Sub. I LOVE Ellenbergers skill set. I think he gets through Howard who has some ridiculous power.
Griffin over Gomi via 2nd Round TKO. I think Griffin will get back on the winning track.

Volkmann over Kelly via Decision. Volkmann gets an easy decision victory thanks to his great wrestling
Johnson over Riddle via 2nd Round Submission. Johnson has more experience and will catch Riddle in a position hes never seen.
Irvin over Pokrajac via 1st Round KO. Irvin gets a much needed victory.
Stann over Massenzio via 1st Round TKO. Hopefully Stann goes back to his WEC style.
Tavares over Freire via Decision. Tavares has too much talent to be meddling in the undercard, but he wont put it together.
Oliveria over Elkins via Decision. Oliveria has a good debut
Kimmons over Steinbess via 3rd Round Sub. Kimmons too much.

KO of the Night: Okami
Sub of the Night: Ellenberger
Fight of the Night: Johnson/Riddle and/or Jones/Matyushenko.
