Tomorrow morning (Sat. September 28, 2019) UFC on ESPN+ 18 goes down from the Royal Arena in Copenhagen, Denmark.

In the main event of the night, a middleweight matchup takes place between Jack Hermansson and Jared Cannonier. Both men have been on a roll in the 185-pound division as of late, making for an interesting matchup. We here at LowKickMMA have compiled our predictions for tomorrow afternoon’s main event. Check them out below.

UFC Copenhagen Staff Predictions

Jon Fuentes:

Your classic grappler vs. striker matchup here. Hermansson has some of the most dominant grappling in the UFC going at the moment, while Cannonier has looked great with his hands at 185 pounds. On paper, Hermansson should win this fight by taking Cannonier to the ground and controlling him for a decision win. However, I have a funny feeling Cannonier connects with a shot to end the night early. (Prediction: Jared Cannonier)

Abhinav Kini:

This is an intriguing fight involving two guys on winning streaks. However, I feel Jack Hermansson has faced better opposition in the weight class and his superior ground game will ultimately prove decisive. I’m going with “The Joker” to get it done. (Prediction: Jack Hermansson)

Brady Briggs:

This is a very compelling, yet hard to pick main event. Both of these men have flown under the radar for quite some time now, and both got some real exposure in their most recent fights. To me, Hermansson clearly has an edge on the ground, and Cannonier has an edge on the feet. It will be very interesting to see how this one goes, but I think Cannonier might shock everyone and score another knockout. (Prediction: Jared Cannonier)

Cole Shelton:

Hermansson-Cannonier is a really intriguing bout. Cannonier has the striking advantage, while Hermansson has the grappling advantage. If Hermansson can get Cannonier to the ground he could very well submit him, which I think will happen. However, don’t be surprised if Cannonier knocks Hermansson out. (Prediction: Jack Hermansson)

Jack Hermansson is on the cusp of a title opportunity. All he has to do is get past Jared Cannonier in Copenhagen, and he’ll solidify himself as one of the top title contenders at 185 pounds.

Hermansson vs. Cannonier headlines UFC Copenhagen on September 28 from the Royal Arena. Speaking to MMA Junkie, Hermansson explained that, with a win in Copenhagen, he wants a fight with Paulo Costa next, or he’ll hold out for a title opportunity.

“I feel like if I win this fight, it’s probably a fight against Paulo Costa or waiting that makes the most sense,” Hermansson said. “(Kelvin) Gastelum is going to fight (Darren) Till. If he wins, then that’s a fight that I could take.

“But there’s a certain limit of fights that make sense right now, so preferably I’d like to fight Costa. If he’s going to fight for the title, then I do not mind waiting a little bit because I feel like I should be next in line for the title shot.”

Costa likely won’t have to fight again before receiving a title shot. He will be in attendance for the upcoming UFC 243 title unification bout between Robert Whittaker and Israel Adesanya in Australia. The Brazilian powerhouse has already been promised the next title shot by UFC president Dana White.

Given the current situation at the top of 185 pounds, it will be interesting to see what Hermansson would do next with a win over Cannonier. He’s on a four-fight win streak and has looked very dominant during that spell.

However, he’ll face no easy task in Cannonier, a former light heavyweight contender who has been on a knockout streak since cutting down to 185 pounds. He owns early stoppages over David Branch and Anderson Silva in his first two middleweight fights. Adding a hot prospect like Hermansson to the list would only propel him into the title conversation faster than anticipated.

What do you think about Hermansson wanting Costa or a title shot next with a win over Cannonier?
