Tony Ferguson vs Justin Gaethje - Another toss up stylistically but I gotta go with Tony 4th rd Submission after some familiar adversity.

 

Henry Cejudo vs Dominick Cruz - Cruz UD

 

Francis Ngannou vs Jairzinho Rozenstruik - Ngannou UD

 

Jeremy Stephens vs Calvin Kattar - Kattar UD

Preliminary Card (ESPN)

Early Preliminary Card (ESPN+)

 

Vincente Luque vs Niko Price - Luque 2rd KO

I'll go Justin by 1st round KO, Ferg cutting weight multiple times, Justin has good power. Toss up for sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if Justin catches him early and goes for the kill. Correct me if im wrong but other than Barboza with kicks maybe, has Tony ever fought a true KO artist? Unpredictable fight though, wont be shocked either way.

 

I bet Cruz gives Henry all kinds of issues with the height, length, and movement. Ill go Cruz split decision.

 

Francis by KO

 

Pettis KO's Donald in the first. Donald has taken a lot of damage the last year or so. He is older. I just don't see it going well for him.

 

The others I don't have predictions for, but great card.

I think Justin gets the tko early in round one or two. If Tony survives the first two rounds the odds of him winning considerably go up in my opinion but I doubt he does.

 

Cejudo gets the UD

 

Ngannou gets 1st round KO

 

Petits gets tko again. Not sure what round.

 

Stephens vs Katar is a toss up in my opinion. It'll be a banger though.

 

Im going out on a limb and say Hall gets the UD.

 

Karate Hottie gets the UD.

 

Oleinik vs Werdum is also a toss up I think. Depends on what Werdum looks like after a layoff like that.

but nobody predicted that Jacare would make weight and still not fight because of a COVID19 positive test result.
