1 week with no UFC feels like I'm receiving some type of Karmic Punishment. Pumped up for tonight's card, feels like a lot of closely contested matches on this one. Fights taking place in Vegas means I'm setting the over/under at 1.5 for fighters getting Royally Bent Overreamed by the judges.

-Most deserving favorite Timur Valiev vs Martin Day - Valiev @ -455 1st round TKO (Smesh)

I like Kape a lot, I'm just not convinced he'll win this time around. I hope he sticks around for a while longer.

@JPosadas I can't wait for that one, along with the Dariush vs Ferreira match I would say are the 2 I'm looking forward to the most.
Lets gooooooo!

@SlipperyWhenDry

Those two definitely, and Sandhagen vs Edgar as well. This is such a good card, one of the better ones we've had recently. Put another great headliner on it and it could certainly be an excellent PPV (hopefully everything doesn't go to **** lol)

This card is actully way better then alot of the PPV the UFC put out latley, Anyone who pay for the recent UFC PPV is a shill tbh, $70 to watch average fight that not increble, Where you can wait a week and watch better fight for free. 

P.s UFC 258 is terrible card, But atlest it better then UFC 255

Got to relook over my predictions. Here’s what I’m thinking so far. 
Most likely I’ll change half of them.

I definitely agree with you. You could have put Usman vs Burns on this card and it would have been a great PPV and left 258 as a Fight Night card.

Just makes me think fondly back to 256 and look forward to 259 even more honestly.

A great free Fightcard Event provided by the UFC this evening to get the Las Vegas shows underway in 2021, in the lead up to UFC 258... Some excellent and evenly contested match ups on paper, although I predict 7 KO/TKO finishes in the 12 Fight card... Really looking forward to watching the Main Event, Overeem Vs Volkov, Co-Main Event, Sandhagen Vs Edgar and the big rematch Ferreira Vs Dariush... I am predicting finishes in all 3 contests... I think all by KO/TKO too... 
It's Neeeaaarrllly Tiiimmeee!! 🤔🧐😎🍺🥊👊🤑👍

Alistair Overeem has been one of my most favourite fighters throughout the last decade and has taken part in some memorable contests... He has had some fantastic Wins, along with some devastating losses... He his a warrior with tremendous fighting skills and a lot of key fighting qualities... I really want him to beat Volkov this evening, who is also a tremendous talent, because I am a huge fan of Overeem... But since the fight was made, especially after watching both fighters face Walt Harris last year, I just think that this is a bad match-up for a 40 Year Old Overeem, who although massively talented, with finishing capabilities, has seen better days in the Cage... Hope I'm wrong... But Volkov is so dangerous, especially with them body kicks... I can see a Ground and Pound Finish either way in this one... A tremendous Heavyweight Main Event to kick off 2021 🤑🤔🥊👊👍

Duster... That would be amazing if there were 12 KO/TKO finishes on a 12 Bout UFC Fightcard... It would also make a bettor decent money, because there would be really good odds available... So I guess, if you are feeling lucky with your predictions... I don't see it myself, especially with wmma and several close bouts on paper, with fighters who are Not massively known for KOing their opponents... 7 might be a stretch, as per my prediction, but I certainly think over 5... Looking forward to the Fightcard though 🤔🥊👊🤑👍

@Stephen Terry, interesting prediction... We differ on 6 of your choices... Hope Overeem can get the W though... I really think that Valiev and D Smith are locks this evening for Winning by KO/TKO in their respective contests, but in the Fight Game, stranger things have happened... 🤑🤔🥊👊👍
