Main Card Francis Ngannou vs. Jairzinho Rozenstruik Raphael Assunção vs. Cody Garbrandt Greg Hardy vs. Yorgan de Castro Sam Alvey vs. Khalil Rountree Jr. Louis Smolka vs. Davey Grant Tecia Torres vs. Mizuki Inoue Prelims Julianna Peña vs. Aspen Ladd Matt Brown vs. Miguel Baeza Carlos Felipe vs. Jeff Hughes Randy Costa vs. Martin Day Eric Spicely vs. Punahele Soriano Laureano Staropoli vs. Phil Rowe Solid 7.5/10
Curious about Ngannou vs Rozenstruik. Ngannou should win easily but I have a funny feeling about that one. Isnt Rozenstruiks chin extremely solid? Edit: Yep, never been knocked out in MMA and lost 2 of his 85 kickboxing bouts by KO.
Solid 7/10, but will likely overperform as far as entertainment value goes. Pena vs Ladd is a hell of a fight for an undercard.
Can't go wrong with 7. I'm not willing to go any higher and I could've easily said a 6.5. Good by ESPN standards. "Decent" overall.
According to ESPN but keep in mind UFC has been known to change the bout order a week before the event
Pretty sure he wants to retire after this fight, probably sees it as a winnable fight over a very hittable opponent
7.5/10 if Francis/Jairzhino brings the fireworks like it should Drops to a 4/10 if that fight is Francis/Derrick Lewis 2.0.
Definitely a really good card, i can't wait for Rozenstruik vs. Ngannou and i'm very curious about Garbrandt as well.
If a free card has a kickass main and co-main like this one does, it automatically makes it atleast a 7.
Not bad at all. I'm fairly excited about the top four on the Main Card along with a few of the Prelims. We've certainly had worse. My everlasting hope for the Main Event is that it doesn't turn out to be a re-run of Franky vs. Lewis. Still brings tears to my eyes...
