UFC Fight Night 52 is set for this Saturday, September 20. The show will be hosted at the Saitama Super Arena in Japan, which means the North American audience will have to stay up late—or get up early—to catch the action on Fight Pass. 

The start time is 12:30 a.m. ET, with the main card kicking off at 3 a.m. The card features a total of 12 bouts, split evenly over the prelims and main card.

The main attraction features two of the biggest and hardest-hitting heavyweights lumbering the face of the Earth in Roy Nelson and Mark Hunt. The pairing promises to be spectacle and legitimate, high-quality sport rolled into a single entity, making for an intriguing show.

As per usual, Bleacher Report’s predictions crew is here to supply you with our picks for Saturday’s contests. It’s James “Magnesium” MacDonald, Riley “Krypton” Kontek, Scott “Helium” Harris, Sean “Silver” Smith and Craig “Carbon” Amos bringing you our thoughts on the UFC Fight Night 52 main card matchups.
