Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are back to break down this week’s UFC event in Las Vegas, NV. With picks and odds for every fight on the card. From Dustin Poirier vs. Dan Hooker in the main event down to Kay Hansen vs. Jinh Yu Frey in the opening prelims.
For fans who have been disappointed by the recent run of UFC main events, Poirier vs. Hooker should guarantee that Saturday’s card ends on a high note. How much action there will be leading up to that point? Well… that remains to be seen. Perry vs. Gall should be fun, but a lot of the rest of this event feels like it could be a grind.
