I don't think the card is bad, It more adequate, They're 4 fights on the main card I want to see, Don't expect every PPV to be UFC 280. A bad card is UFC 279, That card is embarrassing for the UFC This main card is pretty solid, It just a average PPV, i personally don’t care how bad a prelim or fight nights are as they are free TV

Let me reiterate, **** UFC 279, The worst UFC card of all time

What if Aldo has to deal with Merab like he had to deal with Yan? I mean it won't be same, but Merab has around 60 TD's and Aldo is not that good on the ground. Not now.

Aldo is one of the best defensive grappler of all time, at worst top 5 best defensive grappler, crazy that people expect him to get wresle ****

Saying Aldo can’t grapple is like saying fish can’t swim,

rooting for rockhold and i am brazilian. about the fight, it is crazy that borrachinha has huge power but never gets a clean KO, he has to accumulate strikes to get it done. let's see if rockhold can handle it.

And Bisping was a big puncher? No.had Bisping that pressure style like Borrachina? No.Had Bisping the same absorbtion of strikes or the takedown Defense of Borrachinha? No and No. Luke Rockhold was washed even in that fight, but now is goin to look better against a younger lion ? No.
If you need to think about this pick... Do a favour for yourself and dont bet money in MMA NEVER😎🇧🇷

Isn't it true Aldo has a wrestling background and was training with Olympic team players recently? Could be wrong but seem to remember something like that.

After seeing what Moraes did to Meerab I'm not sure I can pick him

Don't listen noone...
just make your picks with your own knowledge... !
A well known "expert" with quite "good persentage" and quite good "breakbdown analysis"... he didn't knew how to make picks in the last PFL event... he only picked up the fighters, he couldn't make full picks... !
Probably he is copying his picks and his breakdowns... !

This is a borderline PPV caliber card but it's still a very good card. Very similar card to last week honestly. Lots of fights; main card is better than last weeks but last weeks prelims were better than this card.

Pedro/Hunsucker is the only fight that sticks out on a main card of mostly established names and is pretty obviously there to just give everyone a quick finish to open the PPV. UFC hasn't been to Utah in like 6 years by my count (last there in 2016 as far as I know) so this fight is just there to throw the crowd a bone and get them pumped for the rest of the card.

Mehrab vs. Aldo is ******* tough man.

I've already given that fight a lot of thought and it seems like a cardio battle to be honest. I think the odds are exactly right. Fight is a pick em.

Pin point striker with absurd TDD vs. Relentless takedown pursuer with unlimited gas tank and a granite chin.

Flip a coin.
