Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch return to breakdown this week’s UFC event in St. Petersburg, Russia. With picks and odds for ever bout on the card. From Alistair Overeem vs. Olexey Oliynyk down to Rafael Fiziev vs. Magomed Mustafaev.
The UFC is back with a true hardcore-fans-only fight card this weekend in St. Petersburg, Russia. The event is filled with interesting new prospects, has a heavyweight main event, and not a whole lot else (excepting, of course, BE’s own Roxanne Modafferi). Former title contender Alistair Overeem takes on a surprisingly streaking Oleksiy Oliynyk to top a card that is otherwise going to be thin on name recognition for all be the most devoted fight fans.
