& there's a ppv the week before so I doubt this will also be a ppv. Grasso vs shevchenko will probably headline since it's in the T-Mobile arena but it'll be a free card which is dope

I think it's legit. No way there'd be 2 back to back PPVs in a week. I wonder if this means UFC believes this particular rematch would flop as a PPV

I don’t know the last time they did it, but during the Fox days, they used to main event fight night with the title fights that won’t sell much to make those fight nights bigger , I don’t think Valentina ever main event a PPV since the  Nunes fight over 5 years ago so it does make sense 

For example, DJ main event at least  5 fight night cards because he was the least popular male champion ever and they rather put someone who sell PPV to main event those, people don’t want to watch the arguably the most skilled fighter ever

Card is not official of course but 

Grasso Submission round 2 I really don’t like how Val looked in Santos and first Grasso fight and I got Grasso winning by submission again.

Rakhmonov VS Gastelum

Predictions: 7 of 11 Winners, 3 Perfect, 480 Points   |   Tied for 1642nd

Shavkat Rakhmonov, TKO, RD3
Even though Shavkat called for this fight it doesn’t change the fact that this is weird matchmaking. If Leon and Colby are going to fight I would’ve liked to see a Shavkat VS Belal title eliminator. That being said this is obviously a total mismatch but I think Kelvin’s toughness gets him to survive a couple rounds but I do see Shavkat’s finishing streak continuing.
