Dana White's Contender Series Season 10, Episode 1
TBD — Pick withheld — insufficient data. Two 0-0 fighters with no tape, no stats, and no market posted. This is pure speculation until the weigh-in or a line appears. Wait for the number before committing anything.

Claressa Shields vs Kaye Scott
TBD — Shields to win. Scott has never been stopped but she's also never shared a ring with anyone who throws like Shields. The speed gap is enormous — Shields has won undisputed at five weights and Scott earned these belts by surviving 20 rounds with Olivia Curry. If Shields is anywhere near her old form at middleweight, the decision should be comfortable.

UFC 330: Makhachev vs Machado Garry
TBD — Makhachev to win. The two-weight champion has won 16 straight, four of them lightweight title defences finished by submission. Garry is the bigger man and the better striker, but Makhachev's sambo pedigree and ability to find the choke from anywhere makes him the safer side when the market opens.

UFC 330
TBD — Makhachev to win. The champion is the champion until a genuine stylistic answer arrives, and Garry's outfighting game has always been the wrong solution to Makhachev's problem. When the market posts, expect a short price on the favourite that's still fair.

UFC BJJ 10: Tackett vs Gracie
TBD — Gracie to win. With no fight data to parse, this is pure instinct on lineage and ruleset. Gracie's surname suggests deep positional fluency, and five rounds in a submission-only format traditionally favours the patient grappler over the explosive scrambler. Market will tell us more when it opens, but the name carries weight in this discipline.

Amanda Serrano vs Lucrecia Manzur
TBD — Serrano to win. Manzur has never been stopped, but she's also never faced anyone remotely close to Serrano's level. Serrano has stopped her last two featherweight opponents inside two rounds and defended titles twice in 2026. The only path for Manzur is outworking a seven-time world champion over twelve — that's theory, not form.
