UK vs the World (FN 255)

[650lb Sumo]

(British fighters first, my picks in red)

Nathan Fletcher vs Caolán Loughran
Christian Leroy Duncan vs Andrey Pulyaev
Mick Parkin vs Marcin Tybura
Lone’er Kavanagh (dual flag UK/China) vs Felipe dos Santos
Jai Herbert (dual flag UK/Jamaica) vs Chris Padilla

Nathaniel Wood vs Morgan Charrière
Molly McCann vs Alexia Thainara
Leon Edwards (dual flag UK/Jamaica) vs Sean Brady

So my predictions will give the UK a win, but losing the most prestigious fights. I do give Edwards and Wood decent chances though, I wouldn't be surprised if either or both won. Those fights seems fairly even.

The HW bout is the one I'm most interested in. Ok Tybura is 39 now and has a stripy record lately, but he's still a big name for Parkin. A win for Big Mick tonight, in front of the home crowd, would definitely propel him upwards.
