BJPENN.com Fighter Picks Weili Zhang vs Tatiana Suarez:

Modestas Bukauskas, UFC light heavyweight: I think Tatiana Suarez will become the new champ. She is so dominant with her wrestling and will be able to get Weili down and I think she can finish her, too.

Geoff Neal, UFC welterweight: I think Weili gets it done. I think she will win the final three rounds to win a decision.

Vince Morales, UFC bantamweight: Tatiana, I think she can finish Zhang. She is so strong and dominant and I think she takes Zhang down and submits her or gets a TKO.

Steve Garcia, UFC featherweight: Tatiana Suarez by submission or ground and pound TKO. She seems destined to be a champ.

Kody Steele, UFC lightweight: That is a good one because Zhang is so good and tough to beat. But, I think Tatiana will be able to get it to the ground and get the win.

Youssef Zalal, UFC featherweight: I’m gonna go with Tatiana Suarez. I feel like her strength will be too much for Zhang and we get a new champion in Australia.
