Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch return to break down this week’s UFC event in Las Vegas, NV. With picks and odds for every fight on the card. From Ciryl Gane vs. Alexander Volkov in the main event down to Yancy Medeiros vs. Damir Hadzovic in the opening prelim.
The UFC is back with a pretty decent fight card this week, featuring the rare technique-filled heavyweight matchup between talented relative newcomer Ciryl Gane and veteran Russian bigman Alexander Volkov. Add a top prospect fight between Raoni Barcelos & Timur Valiev, as well as action wars between Andre Fili & Daniel Pineda, as well as Time Means & Nicolas Dalby, and it should make for a great night of MMA action.
