6. Mike Pyle Vs. Sean Spencer
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hBlC6jEkcLQ Weight Class: Welterweight Veteran welterweight and former WEC champion Mike Pyle (26111) takes on Sean Spencer (124), the man known for being completely robbed by the judges against former UFC competitor Cathal Pendred, the teammate of Conor McGregor who recently retired. Despite the loss to Pendred, Spencer is being given a step up in competition here after the UFC and all media outlets scoring the bout sided against the judges in that fight. In essence, the promotion is treating the loss like it never happened. Overall, Spencer is 3-3 officially in the UFC, but he should be 4-2. Pyle, meanwhile, has lost two straight, but he is always dangerous. What you have here, however, it a vet versus a fighter entering their prime. Pyle is forty years old in a division where older fighters generally don't fare well (really, only the heavier weight classes favour older athletes, as speed is less of an issue). Spencer, at 28, is just hitting his prime. Look for Spencer to take a TKO victory, which would be his first in the UFC.
