[JoeRowe]

I missed these 2 announcements but they're very solid fights, hopefully they aren't main card bouts though.

First appropriate fight for Many level and age.

 

[DougieJones]

Ikram vs Brunno gonna be fireworks

Don't really care much about the other fight

 

[fortheo]

For some reason I feel like I've already seen Magny vs. Gunnar, but I guess they've never fought. Also, wtf, gunnar is fighting twice in a year? dude must need money.

Aliskerov vs Ferreira sounds like a good fight
Someone is going down

 

[The_Renaissance]

Aliskerov vs. Ferreira is a great fight that won't be going the distance, suspect that Ikram TKO's him.

Not fussed on the other, should really be a double retirement fight. Nelson probably wins a decision.

 

[usernamee]

Gunni and Magny should really be a curtain jerker on the prelims at this point

Ferreira should be a lot faster of the two and carries a lot of power. I see him sleeping Aliskerov in the first

 

[Morris88]

Nelson has fought 3 times in the last 5 years, that's insane haha.

 

[IneedSometop]

Ikram should be fighting up in the rankings not back imo. Maybe if he wins this it sets him up for another crack at a top 10ish guy

Seeing Gunnar fight announcement makes my brain go "What year is it?.gif"

Really hoping they book Jean Silva vs Lopes for this card. For me that makes it PPV quality. These are C tier fights, not bad fighters, but nothing that really makes it great.

 

[Necrocrawler]

Huge step up for Ferreira
Gunnar seemed a little out of rhythm on his last one but that was probably due to the long layoff.
He probably beats Magny though. By sub or decision.

I think Lopes will be on Noche almost certainly.

I'm hoping for Gaethje vs Arman(since Hooker had another surgery) for co-main & Leon vs Jorge for 3rd wheel

 

[Blastbeat]

Ikram vs Bruno is absolutely a Just Bleed fight
someone's gettin finished

 

[burningspear]

gunnar magny nice, im tired of watching them both getting hammered

 

[Mohawk Banditó]

Magny has never really been a "high ceiling" guy, and there might be some perception that he's fallen off because of the stoppage losses, but he was fighting some real strong prospects. Gunnar on the other hand, did not have a confidence-inspiring performance against Holland.

I'd lean Magny here, but no result would surprise me, and no win is going to lead to anything impactful for the division. Hope the fight is sharp and technical as you'd expect it to be.

Fuck I'm getting tickets tomorrow for 318, I thought that fight was official besides the announcement. Gaethje/Arman would be a good eliminator in LW. I'm happy to see any new matchups in that division.

Leon/Jorge is sort of stupid in my book, plenty of WWs who need a boost in rankings and Jorge doesn't get to come back to the front of the line, but he knows he draws more so UFC would probably oblige with his best matchup.

Ikram is on my "unranked to ranked" fighters picks so I hope he wins, but at the same time, I like Hulk he's kill or be killed
