Israel Adesanya (c) vs. Jared Cannonier
Middleweight champ Israel Adesanya has run through the middle-weight division and has looked unstoppable at this weight class. His latest challenger is Jared Cannonier who Adesanya has wanted to fight for the last two years.
Betonline.ag has Adesanya as the betting favorite with odds of -500 while the challenger Cannonier is the underdog with odds of +375.
Adesanya has promised fans a fight they will not forget as he believes he can finish Cannonier before the final bell. Adesanya is the best striker in the middleweight division and will have the advantage in the speed and precision categories. However, Adesanya is going to find a tough opponent in Cannonier who has fought at heavyweight before.
Cannonier can eat heavy punches and still keep coming forward while landing some big ones of his own. If it plays out on the feet, Cannonier’s best advantage is landing a big show and putting Izzy to sleep. However, if Cannonier can get Adesanya to the ground, he will find it easier to win rounds and put the champ under pressure.
Current odds: Israel Adesanya (-500) / Jared Cannonier (+375)
Prediction: We are going to predict an upset here as Cannonier has all the tools to pull off an upset!
Co-Main Event: Alexander Volkanovski (c) vs. Max Holloway
These two legends have shared 10 rounds in the Octagon and in both fights Volkanovski got the nod from the judges to go 2-0 against Holloway. However, MMA fans threw shade at Volkanovski as they believed the judges got it wrong and Holloway is the real champ.
This trilogy is arguably going to be the last time Holloway gets a chance at beating Volkanovski and reclaiming his featherweight belt. The bookmakers have the champ Volkanovski as the favorite and rightly so with odds of -205 while Holloway is the underdog with odds of +175.
Volkanovski and Holloway will not want this fight to go to the judges and will look for a finish which is going to be difficult as both fighters have a great defensive game. Alexander Volkanovski has managed to get the better of Holloway in the first and second fight by using his kicks and wrestling to outpoint the Hawaiian.
If Holloway does not have a strategy to combat those leg kicks and stop the takedowns, we will see Volkanovski go 3-0 and retain his belt.
Current odds: Alexander Volkanovski (-205) / Max Holloway (+175)
Prediction: Former UFC lightweight champ Khabib Nurmagomedov predicts that Volkanovski will win and we agree with him!
Sean Strickland vs. Alex Pereira
This is going to be a very interesting fight as the winner is likely to be the next title challenger at middleweight. A lot of UFC fans are not familiar with kickboxing special Alex Pereira who is currently 2-0 in the UFC.
Pereira is the only man to beat champ Israel Adesanya twice in the world of kick-boxing and the UFC is fasting tracking the Brazilian to set up a potential clash with Adesanya, provided both Pereira and Adesanya win at UFC 276.
Current odds: Sean Strickland (-110) / Alex Pereira (-110)
Prediction: Both Strickland and Pereira fighters have odds of -110 in this fight but we are going to back Strickland to win as he is the better wrestler.
Pedro Munhoz vs. Sean O’Malley
This fight is going to have a lot of eyeballs as Sean O’Malley has a huge social media following and is set to face his toughest challenge in the UFC when he takes on the dangerous Pedro Munhoz.
O’Malley goes in as the favorite with odds of -290 while Munhoz is the underdog with odds of +245. If this plays out on the feet, this will be a barn burner as both fighters are exceptional fighters. However, Munhoz has a fantastic ground game and we expect him to take down O’Malley and submit him!
Current odds: Pedro Munhoz (+245) / Sean O’Malley (-290)
Prediction: We are going to bet on Munhoz to win by TKO or submission!
