[JoeRowe]

Zhang vs Suarez/Jandiroba
Shevchenko vs Fiorot
Pantoja vs KKF/Asukura
Merab vs Umar/Figgy
Islam vs Arman 2
Belal vs Shavkat
DDP vs Strickland

I think it'll look SOMETHING like this:

310 in December (Vegas):
Belal vs Shavkat
Pantoja vs KKF/Asukura

311 in JAN (LA):
Islam vs Arman 2
Zhang vs Suarez/Jandiroba

312 in FEB(South Africa):
DDP vs Strickland 2
Shevchenko vs Fiorot

313 in March (Saudi):
Aspinall vs Gane/Volkov winner (Vacant Title)
Merab vs Umar

314 in April (Vegas):
Topuria/Max winner vs Volk

315 in May (Brazil):
Pereira vs Ank/Rakic, or Roundtree vs Pereira 2

Rather than rematch DDP and Strickland I'd rather see Strickland fight Izzy again if we have to have a do over....

I like that you do these @JoeRowe I was thinking about them the other day, wondering when the next one would appear!

UFC 313 in Saudi? Are you making that up or is the event actually there? Because that's during Ramadan, which would pretty much guarantee that none of the muslim fighters can fight on the card. Would be a strange choice.

Love the forecast threads mate! I think it’ll be Strickland vs DDP 2 in LA and the Feb card will have Pantoja KKF with Izzy/Borralho and Gaethje Hooker.

Gotta agree with the points above that your Saudi card would fall in Ramadan but I think they will try to go there early in the year.

Pretty much agree with all of this. Think Albazi might get a shot if he beats Moreno, though.

Aspinall vs Gane/Volkov winner (Vacant Title)

Wouldn’t be a vacant title, Aspinall will be promoted to undisputed champion. But nitpick aside, mostly all seems realistic. Probably shakes out mostly similarly.
