Gustafsson at Heavyweight vs Werdum?
That has the potential to be a fun matchup. And based off of Werdum’s last performance I’d say it’ll be a pretty easy win for Gustafsson.

Whittaker vs. Till
Robert Whittaker, TKO, R2
Knuckle, Reaper wreck retruns side not dren looks like shaved gorilla not a compliment.

Werdum vs. Gustafsson
Alexander Gustafsson
Gus can win but a ko seems way out of question even in his 40s, gus should hold a huge speed adavantage.

Rua vs. Nogueira III
Maurício Rua
This will likely be another very ugly slug fest where acc or rua wins the day, odd the former pro boxer has so few kos.

What are you even talking about?

You do realize Gustafsson is 33, right?

Rua vs. Nogueira III
Maurício Rua, TKO, R2
Both legends, but well passed their prime. Rua still is a quality gatekeeper (having "recently" defeated quality opponents like Corey Anderson, Gian Villante, Tyson Pedro...), he should fight the likes of Cirkunov, Cutelaba, Crute, Oleksiejczuk... Not an unranked 44 years old fighter he already beat 2 times,and who should already be retired.

Whittaker vs. Till
Robert Whittaker, TKO, R1
funny,till lost the last fight and still got the DECISION from the Judges, I will assume that robert know that, R1 KO, till is not top mid, he need to learn how to manage his weight and go back to 170

Rua vs. Nogueira III
Maurício Rua, TKO, R1
maybe it was classic 5 years ago,now this is just sad,RUA in ko in R1

Oliveira vs. Sobotta
Alex Oliveira, TKO, R1
another fight that help only one side,cowbay will mual this guy

Werdum vs. Gustafsson
Fabrício Werdum, SUB, R2
let take a break and then go back to HW and fight former champ?bad idea for gus

Roberts vs. Dalby
Nicolas Dalby, DEC
dalby should win this fight,but if he will try to show off- he will be KO, roberts is avarage- but he does have power,so if you fight smart-he won't beat you

Collier vs. Aspinall
Tom Aspinall, TKO, R1
i hope to see KO in R1, i don't know any of them but i feel like tom is hot head so he will throw and hit.

Pessoa vs. Tafa
Raphael Pessoa, DEC
base of his 2 first fights-tafa have power but no tech, Pessoa have tech ,he does have power but he play safe and smart against hughes so if he will do that same here-he will win in D

Evloev vs. Grundy
Movsar Evloev, SUB, R1
new talents! i will go wild this time,SUB R1

Correia vs. Kianzad
Bethe Correia, DEC
both of them is in the end, I will say beth is not smart fighter so i think pannie will be smart and pick the shoots and win in D

Nurmagomedov vs. Wood
Umar Nurmagomedov, DEC
This fight is so great, this should be main event,wood will come back to revenge this lost but as for tonight-he won't be happy

Emeev vs. Rakhmonov
Shavkat Rakhmonov, TKO, R1
triple G teach me that unless the judge is paid off by del a hoya, Kaza is the place to be!
