Anthony Pettis (-300) Travis Browne (-400) - (-150)
Breakdown
Travis Browne vs Brendan Schaub
Browne will be able to match him with athleticism and he packs way more power in his strikes and I just can't see Schaub being able to take down Browne effectively. This is a fight where Schaub is really likely to go down with one punch because of the power of Browne. Browne by KO.
Anthony Pettis vs Gilbert Melendez
Pettis has been utterly dominant as of late and has proved to be very improved as a fighter. I think Pettis will be able to keep his range of strikes and land his strikes on Melendez because Pettis is so athletically gifted when it comes to striking and he is very hard to deal with his angles. I am taking Pettis by TKO.
