Brandon Moreno Co-Main Events in UFCs Return to Mexico

A banger of a matchup has just been announced. Anthony Hernandez will welcome Ikram Aliskerov to the top 15 of the Middleweight division at UFC 298: Alexander Volkanovski vs. Ilia Topuria, which will take place on February 17th in Anaheim, California, per Damon Martin.

**This fight will occur in the Middleweight (185 lbs) division.**

Anthony Hernandez is ranked #15 in the Middleweight division and holds a professional record of 11-2-1NC (5-2 UFC), with notable wins over Edmen Shahbazyan, Jun Yong Park, and Rodolfo Vieira.

Both of these top Middleweight fighters are coming off statement performances.

Both fighters will be looking to get their biggest win of their careers, and move up into the higher ranks of the division.

UFC Fight Night: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan Weigh-In Results

Douglas Vegas Bets

The UFC is back in front of fans with a stacked card of action from Austin, Texas, headlined by a clash of Lightweight standouts as Beneil Dariush +240 takes on Arman Tsarukyan -294. I went over each fight on the main card and gave my predictions and best bets, so let's get into it.

**Odds provided by Stake.com accurate as of 1:45 PM EST 11/30/2023**

## Beneil Dariush +240 vs. Arman Tsarukyan -294

Lightweight contenders square off in this crucial main event. Beneil Dariush looks to return to his winning ways using his well-rounded offensive attack that features fight-ending power and an incredible grappling game, although he has had several brutal weight cuts and has been knocked out multiple times. Arman Tsarukyan has been one to watch since his debut, where he fought well against current champion Islam Makhachev, and since then, he has only continued to round out his game, which is best known for a vicious ground and pound attack.

I got in early on Tsarukyan, and I'm glad I did, as the current price makes him difficult to bet against a tough test in Dariush, although I still am confident he will get it done, likely via knockout. 

Pick: Tsarukyan O/U: Under 3.5 -108

## Jalin Turner -217 vs. Bobby Green +180

Short notice replacement here saves a great fight at Lightweight. Jalin Turner steps in here, which is interesting as he has had trouble making weight even with a proper camp; despite that, he is a dangerous finisher with powerful striking and an opportunistic submission game. Bobby Green is an entertaining fighter with a unique hands-down style; he is a volume puncher with slick head movement and an underrated ground game when needed.

I like Turner here, even on short notice, although I will pass betting on him as I could see this fight turning quickly if it gets to round three with Green's perceived cardio edge. 

Pick: Turner O/U: Over 1.5 -189

## Rob Font -133 vs. Deiveson Figueiredo +114

A Bantamweight firefight goes down here as two hard hitters go head to head. Rob Font is an excellent volume striker with one of the best jabs in the sport; my concern is with his defense, as he is hittable and has not taken punches well in several fights lately when facing other hard hitters. Deiveson Figueiredo moves up in weight here, and I'm excited to see it as he is known for his power and frantic pace, which may only increase with him being less diminished on fight day.

I've got Figueiredo as the underdog in this one, as his power punching and grappling can get him the win here.

Pick: Figueiredo O/U: Under 2.5 -109

## Sean Brady -122 vs. Kelvin Gastelum +104

It's an interesting matchup between Welterweights looking to enter contention. Sean Brady is a very strong grappler with good control and submission; his problem is with his striking and cardio, which looked terrible against Michael Chiesa and Belal Muhammad. Kelvin Gastelum moves back down in weight here after a long run up at Middleweight; he has fought the toughest competition in the world and held his own with a granite chin and high-pace striking.

I'll take Gastelum in this one as I see his volume overwhelming Brady. 

Pick: Gastelum O/U: Under 2.5 -103

## Clay Guida +260 vs. Joaquim Silva -323

Lightweight veterans collide here in this fun matchup. Clay Guida is a forward-moving wrestler with good cardio, although his age is a concern at this point as he is over forty. Joaquim Silva enters this off an impressive showing despite a loss against Arman Tsarukyan, where he showed his dangerous power, nearly finishing the highly touted prospect. 

Silva should take this one, as he was very impressive last time out against a much tougher opponent. 

Pick: Silva O/U: Under 2.5 -133

## Punahele Soriano -286 vs. Dustin Stoltzfus +230

Middleweight finishers matchup here to start the main card. Punahele Soriano is a very athletic guy whom I had high hopes for early in his UFC run; despite some falters along the way, he is still a hard hitter with no quit and a great team behind him, giving me hope he can still reach his potential. Dustin Stoltzfus is a decent grappler coming back after a year off from a quick knockout loss to Abus Magomedov; he only has one win in five UFC appearances and has not shown much promise along the way. 

I like Soriano to get a finish in this one as he is very explosive and dangerous, which will be too much for Stoltzfus. 

Pick: Soriano O/U: Under 1.5 +104

## [DougLasVegasBets.net](https://douglasvegasbets.net) Plays

Arman Tsarukyan -175

Deiveson Figueiredo +160

Kelvin Gastelum +100

Punahele Soriano + Melquizael Costa -105

UFC Fight Night: Dariush vs. Tsarukyan Predictions

Per Chatri Sityodtong at a press release in Japan, ONE Championship will return to Tokyo, Japan, on January 28th for ONE 165. The headliner will be a Kickboxing Superfight between the ONE Flyweight Muay Thai world Champion Rodtang Jitmuangnon and one of the greatest pound-for-pound kickboxers, Takeru Segawa—five-three minute rounds in the Flyweight division. This will be the the first time ONE Championship has gone to Japan since October 2019, and the fourth time in the promotions history.

Rodtang Jitmuangnon is coming off a razor-thin decision loss to Superlek Kiatmuu9 in one of the greatest fights of the year and will look to replicate a similar performance by putting constant pressure on Takeru.

Takeru holds an astonishing 42-3 Kickboxing record and is the former K-1 Super-Featherweight, Featherweight, and Super-Bantamweight Champion. He will be making his debut ONE Championship in his home country, looking to announce his arrival in ONE with a statement victory over one of their biggest stars.

ONE Championship Returns to Japan For Mega Event in January

The former UFC Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling has announced that he'll be having his next fight inside the UFC in the Featherweight (145 lbs) division. The announcement came via Demetrious Johnson's podcast, MightyCast (Mighty Gaming) on YouTube.

Sterling is coming off his first loss since 2017, losing to Sean O'Malley at UFC 292 for the Bantamweight title. With his close friend and teammate, Merab Dvalishvili, closing in on a tlte shot in the same division, and weight cuts becoming increasingly harder for the large 135er, the move makes a lot of sense. When asked about what the future holds, this is what "Funkmaster" had to say.

Sterling also previously called out Max Holloway, the #1 ranked Featherweight contender, which could be an incredible stylistic matchup if the fight is made. 

> I don't think there's anyone else to turn to. That's the guy who's banishing all the other contenders one by one. UFC 300 could be a fire card, or maybe in March. - Aljamain Sterling on fighting Max Holloway

Former UFC Bantamweight Champion Aljamain Sterling Annouces Move To New Division

Michael "Venom" Page (or "MVP) is one of the largest MMA personalities outside of the UFC. The British striking phenom developed a name for himself and a large fanbase during his years throughout Bellator, where he developed a 17-2 record inside the promotion. On top of that, Page also has a professional boxing record of 2-0, a majority-decision loss in Bare Knuckle Boxing to Mike Perry, and an overall MMA record of 21-2, including eighteen finishes.

"MVP" has announced via the MMA Hour he's been "flirting" with the UFC but hasn't made any official announcements about his signing to the promotion. But, a recent leak courtesy of "FULL SEND PODCAST" on YouTube might've spoiled the surprise of Page's arrival in the UFC.

You can make out "M. Page" on the bottom right of the image and his opponent, the #12 ranked UFC Welterweight Kevin Holland. His name also comes under the rest of the main card for UFC 297, so it's safe to assume this matchup is targeted for the PPV of Strickland vs. du Plessis. However, neither Page nor Holland have announced the bout on their social media, so this isn't official yet.

Michael "Venom" Page x UFC Teased For Potential Debut vs. Ranked Welterweight 

The UFC's 300th Pay-Per-View will go down next year and serve as a landmark event for the company during its thirty-year history. Last month,  UFC CEO Dana White announced the headliners of UFC 297, 298, and 299. That means the next major PPV to be announced will be the headliner for UFC 300. 

We will cover all the confirmed and rumored fights, where UFC 300 may be, and the betting lines for this card.

## Location and Date

Currently, we don't know the exact location for UFC 300. It is, however, very likely it will take place somewhere in the USA due to the fact that both UFC 100 and 200 and multiple other landmark events, such as UFC 229, UFC 244, and, of course, UFC 1 took place in America. 

![nunes-tate.webp](https://imagedelivery.net/kd_oB-9dZCrENaJzp7HSCA/c10b959a-440c-4ea8-7c92-230a8b1ab000/pub "UFC 200 featured a special yellow colored octagon canvas. Credits to: Harry How - Zuffa LLC.")

With UFC 297 landing on the 20th of January, UFC 298 settled for the 17th of February, and UFC 299 taking place at some point in March, we can deduce that UFC 300 will occur in April.

## Confirmed Fights

Currently, there are no confirmed fights for UFC 300, though there are plenty of rumored and discussed bouts for the card.

## Rumoured Fights

The main event is expected to be the longly-teased matchup between "The Notorious" Conor McGregor and "Iron" Michael Chandler. After competing on the season of TUF 31, which saw Chandler dominate the bulk of the show, the two shared a face-off towards the end of the season. However, following multiple rumors, such as the showdown on UFC 296 (now being headlined by Leon Edwards and Colby Covington), the fight could finally take place at UFC 300. Both men are coming off losses, and a win is crucial for their careers, making it an extraordinarily high-stakes and entertaining matchup.

```iframe
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The oddsmakers are always confident in Israel Adesanya.<br><br>He&#39;s lost 3 fights to Alex Pereira, but the oddsmakers still have him as a favorite heading into this weekend.<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/UFC287?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#UFC287</a> <a href="https://t.co/0MF4krsH1v">pic.twitter.com/0MF4krsH1v</a></p>&mdash; Verdict (@TournamentsMMA) <a href="https://twitter.com/UltimateFighter/status/1691645159384162415?s=20">April 5, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
```

Another fighter rumored for this card is Dustin "The Diamond" Poirier, who's stated and teased that he wishes to be a part of this card. Having one of the largest social media followings, the UFC will likely attempt to book Poirier on this card in a ranked matchup. Fighters like Gilbert Burns and Beniel Dariush are interested in fighting Poirier next.

Of course, Jim "A-10" Miller will want to play a part on this card. Miller is the only fighter to appear on UFC 100 and UFC 200 (winning both matchups), and he wishes to close his career out with a victory on UFC 300. He's booked to face Gabriel Benítez at UFC Fight Night: Ankalaev vs. Walker 2. If he doesn't acquire any injuries in this bout, we'll see Miller at UFC 300.

## Betting Odds

Per BestFightOdds.com, Conor McGregor opened as the underdog in the matchup against Chandler but has since closed as a tight favorite at **-130**, pitting Chandler at a small **+120**. This fight is very close to a pick'em, which makes sense as it's a fight affected by multiple factors, such as a long layoff for McGregor, how effective Chandler's wrestling style will be, and which man will have the better cardio.
