Alexander Volkanovski and Diego Lopes Set For Vacant Featherweight Title

It was a fantastic performance from Welterweight contender Sean Brady as he submitted former champion Leon Edwards in the fourth round of the main event from the O2 Arena in London, England.

## Result: Sean Brady def. Leon Edwards via Submission (Guillotine) Round 4 (1:39)

It was clear that pressure was the game plan for Sean Brady as he was in the face of Leon Edwards from the beginning with a high-volume boxing attack in the first round. From the second round on, the grappling of Brady dominated the fight as he was able to control and eventually submit Edwards early in the fourth round.

UFC Fight Night: Edwards vs. Brady Weigh-In Results

The UFC returns to the O2 Arena in London, England, with a fight night card loaded with UK talent being headlined by former Welterweight champion Leon Edwards as he is set to take on rising contender Sean Brady. I went over that matchup and every other fight on the card to give my predictions and best bet, so let's get into it.

**Odds provided by DuelBits accurate as of 3/19/2024**

## Leon Edwards +134 vs. Sean Brady -164

Title implications loom large as these two Welterweights each hunt a rematch with the champion, Belal Muhammad. Leon Edwards is a very technically sharp kickboxer with weapons he uses well at all distances, although his wrestling and output were not good enough to slow Belal Muhammad in his last fight. Sean Brady is a strong wrestler with good submission skills, which he showed against Kelvin Gastelum, and decent boxing, coming off a strong five-round performance against Gilbert Burns. 

I'll go with Brady, as I believe he can get his grappling going consistently and control Edwards on the ground or against the cage enough to get a decision win.

Prediction: Brady by Decision

## Jan Blachowicz +225 vs. Carlos Ulberg -294

Hard-hitting Light Heavyweights square off in this high-stakes co-main event. Jan Blachowicz is a former champion who has shown a powerful and skillful striking attack along with solid offensive wrestling, although he is forty-two, returning from a long layoff after a bad shoulder injury. Carlos Ulberg is a skilled kickboxer out of the famed City Kickboxing gym who comes in on a seven-fight win streak, with five coming by finish, including a twelve-second knockout of Alonzo Menifield.

I like Ulberg in this one, as he is the younger fighter who has been much more active, while I have a hard time seeing Blachowicz return to form with his injury history.

Prediction: Ulberg by Decision

## Kevin Holland +103 vs. Gunnar Nelson -127

The classic striker vs. grappler matchup goes down here at Welterweight. Kevin Holland is a dangerous striker with solid submission skills, especially in this weight class, when he is less likely to be overpowered in wrestling. Gunnar Nelson is a skilled grappler with basic karate-style striking who has had trouble staying active, with just two fights since 2018, although he did win both comfortably against Takashi Sato and Bryan Barberena.

I lean towards Holland here as he has been the much more active fighter with a massive striking advantage, and his struggles in the grappling have all been a weight class up.

Prediction: Holland by 1st Round KO

## Molly McCann +150 vs. Alexia Thainara -189

Short notice replacement steps in here to keep a fan favorite Strawweight on the card. Molly McCann is a veteran striker who gained fame with her signature spinning elbow knockout over Luana Carolina, although her grappling has been a weak point, with her suffering three submission losses in the UFC. Alexia Thainara is a dangerous submission grappler who makes her debut here with nine straight wins, including a decision win on Dana White's Contender Series in her most recent outing. 

I'll pick Thainara here as I see her grappling giving McCann problems, although, with the short notice in McCann's home country, this fight is a pass.

Prediction: Thainara by 1st Round Submission

## Jordan Vucenic -400 vs. Chris Duncan +300

Exciting Lightweights looking to make a name for themselves go head-to-head in this one. Jordan Vucenic is a well-rounded prospect coming in off a debut where, despite losing to Guram Kutateladze, he looked fantastic considering the short notice and level of his opponents, who he dropped in the first round. Chris Duncan is a gritty wrestler with a powerful right hand, although his defense and durability are concerning.

I see Vucenic getting a finish in this one, as he is a much faster and more well-rounded fighter who has faced tougher competition and had success doing so.

Prediction: Vucenic by 1st Round KO

## Nathaniel Wood +132 vs. Morgan Charriere -161

Featherweights with high ceilings square off to open the main card here. Nathaniel Wood is a boxer with fast hands who has won four of his last five since moving up in weight despite getting rocked in several fights against Andre Fili and Muhammad Naimov. Morgan Charriere is a measured and skilled striker with eye-catching speed and experience against high-level competition in Paul Hughes, Chepe Mariscal, and Jordan Vucenic.

I'll go with Charriere here, as I believe he is the cleaner striker with fewer defensive concerns in a close matchup. 

Prediction: Charriere by 2nd Round TKO

## Jai Herbert -115 vs. Chris Padilla -106

Lightweights looking to build momentum face off in this featured prelim. Jai Herbert is a tall striker who uses his length well to keep opponents at range, as he did with Rolando Bedoya in his last fight. Chris Padilla is a tough finisher who comes in off back-to-back comeback wins where he was seemingly falling behind before landing a big shot on his opponent.

I'll take Herbert in this one, as he is the longer fighter who has proven he can win minutes against UFC competition, which we have yet to see Padilla do.

Prediction: Herbert by Decision

## Lone'er Kavanagh -313 vs. Felipe dos Santos +245

Young and exciting Flyweights square off in this fun prelim matchup. Lone'er Kavanagh is an undefeated prospect with plenty of hype coming from his fast and clean striking, which he showed in his debut win over Jose Ochoa. Felipe dos Santos is a classic Chute Boxe fighter with a highly aggressive style of volume striking and solid submission skills, although he has been controlled on the ground at times.

I bet dos Santos at these odds, as he is the bigger fighter who is going to be pushing the pace and has experience against tougher competition.

Prediction: dos Santos by 3rd Round Submission

## Marcin Tybura +101 vs. Mick Parkin -123

Ranked Heavyweights collide here in this high-stakes clash. Marcin Tybura is a well-rounded veteran with decent striking and wrestling, although he is not great anywhere. Mick Parkin is an undefeated prospect coming off his first UFC finish, where he showed his boxing skills are a level above the lower tier of the division with his fourth straight win in the promotion.

I lean towards Tybura, as he has faced better competition and shown a more well-rounded game, although the age difference is a concern.

Prediction: Tybura by Decision

## Andrey Pulyaev +420 vs. Christian Leroy Duncan -588

Dangerous finishers face off in this Middleweight matchup. Andrey Pulyaev is a well-rounded finisher with a very aggressive style who makes his UFC debut here off an impressive decision win on Dana White's Contender Series. Christian Leroy Duncan is an explosive and athletic striker who has shown improvement since joining the UFC but remains a bit raw on the technical side.

I'll pick CLD in this one, as he is the more proven fighter with less durability concerns. 

Prediction: Duncan by 2nd Round TKO

## Shauna Bannon -179 vs. Puja Tomar +146

Two Strawweights looking to build momentum face off in this prelim clash. Shauna Bannon is a solid striker who is coming off her first UFC win, where she showed the ability to manage distance with her kickboxing background. Puja Tomar is a high-volume kickboxer who won a controversial decision in her debut, although she has been finished in all four of her losses, which is a massive concern.

I lean towards Bannon here as she has the size and style to keep Tomar at range. 

Prediction: Bannon by Decision

## Caolan Loughran -101 vs. Nathan Fletcher -122

A rematch from back in their amateur days goes down here at Bantamweight. Caolan Loughran is a stocky wrestler with decent boxing, as he showed in his win over Angel Pacheco, although he is rather hittable. Nathan Fletcher is a grappler who comes in off the last season of The Ultimate Fighter, where he was eliminated early by Kaan Ofli when he struggled to get his grappling going.

I bet Loughran, as he has the UFC experience and is the much better striker while being able to match Fletcher on the ground. With that, Caolan Loughran Moneyline is the Underdog best bet of the week.

Prediction: Loughran by Decision (Best Bet)

## Guram Kutateladze -455 vs. Kaue Fernandes +330

Exciting strikers open the card here at Lightweight. Guram Kutateladze is a very skilled kickboxer who showed his well-roundedness in his last fight, where he used his wrestling to come back from early adversity against Jordan Vucenic. Kaue Fernandes is a striker with fast and powerful kicks, although he has shown a weakness in his ground game, being held down by Marc Diakiese in his debut.

Kutateladze should handle business here, as he has the striking to win there but also has a massive advantage on the ground, which he has shown he is not shy about using.

Prediction: Kutateladze by Decision

UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Dolidze 2 Weigh-In Results

The UFC returns to the Apex this weekend, headlined by a rematch between ranked Middleweights Marvin Vettori and Roman Dolidze. I went over that matchup and every other fight on the card to give my predictions and best bet of the week, so let's get into it.

**Odds provided by DuelBits accurate as of 3/12/2025**

## Marvin Vettori -159 vs. Roman Dolidze +130

It's a Middleweight rematch here two years after the initial meeting. Marvin Vettori returns off a long layoff here and is an extremely durable pressure fighter with decent boxing and wrestling, although not much finishing ability. Roman Dolidze is a hard hitter with a tricky submission game, but his volume and cardio have held him back in close fights before, as was the case in the first fight between these two.

I'll go with Vettori here as he is going to be the higher-output fighter, especially in the later rounds and his durability makes it difficult for me to see Dolidze getting a finish.

Prediction: Vettori by Decision

## Elizeu Zaleski -196 vs. Chidi Njokuani +160

Welterweights known for highlight reel knockouts square off in this co-main event. Elizeu Zaleski is a veteran kickboxer coming off a first-round knockout, showing he's still got it despite being thirty-eight years old. Chidi Njokuani is a very powerful finisher, although when he can't find an early finish, he tends to struggle and often gets finished himself.

I like Zaleski here as he is the more technically sound fighter who has proven he will be able to maintain his output throughout three rounds, unlike Njokuani.

Prediction: Zaleski by 3rd Round TKO

## Alexander Hernandez -208 vs. Kurt Holobaugh +165

Lightweights looking to build momentum clash here. Alexander Hernandez has flashed serious potential, with big power in his hands and a strong wrestling game, although his cardio has been inconsistent. Kurt Holobaugh is a well-rounded veteran who showed good high-volume striking and grappling on his way to winning his season of The Ultimate Fighter; however, he was outwrestled against Trey Ogden, and he seemingly accepted the bottom position, which is concerning.

I'll pick Hernandez here as he is the much younger guy with more power and better wrestling.

Prediction: Hernandez by Decision

## Da'Mon Blackshear -476 vs. Cody Gibson +350

This is a good matchup here in the deep Bantamweight division. Da'Mon Blackshear is a tricky grappler with a strong submission game and good cardio, although Montel Jackson did knock him out badly which is a concern. Cody Gibson is a well-rounded veteran with good boxing and a solid ground game that he showed off in his submission win over Brian Kelleher.

I'm picking Blackshear here as he should have a slight advantage wherever the fight goes although this price is far too much against a solid fighter like Gibson.

Prediction: Blackshear by Decision

## Diyar Nurgozhay -370 vs. Brendson Ribeiro +285

Big Swinging Light Heavyweight finishers collide in this one. Diyar Nurgozhay makes his debut here as a powerful knockout artist with a low-volume, stalking style. Brendson Ribeiro enters this one off his first UFC win where he showed his athleticism and explosiveness although his striking defense is a concern.

I'll go with Ribeiro at these odds as he is the bigger fighter who will have a higher output and has experience on the UFC stage.

Prediction: Ribeiro by 2nd Round KO

## Kevin Vallejos -625 vs. Seung Woo Choi +440

This is a must-see matchup between two very fun Featherweights. Kevin Vallejos makes his debut here after an impressive win on Dana White's Contender Series, although his loss on the show, which was a back-and-forth war with Jean Silva, may have been even more impressive with what we now know. Seung Woo Choi is a dangerous striker with good power in his hands, although his defense has been an issue, with him having been knocked out in the first round in two of his last three fights.

Vallejos should get a knockout win here as he has shown he has the skills to compete at this level and at his young age he is only going to continue getting better while Choi seems on the way out.

Prediction: Vallejos by 1st Round KO

## Waldo Cortes-Acosta -175 vs. Ryan Spann +142

Hard-hitting Heavyweights face off in this can't-miss clash. Waldo Cortes-Acosta is traditionally a boxer with a clubbing right, but he has shown the ability to lean on a wrestling-heavy gameplan as he did in his last fight against Robelis Despaigne. Ryan Spann moves up in weight here which could help with his durability and cardio issues, to improve on his dangerous style of powerful punches and a strong guillotine choke.

I like Spann here as the underdog as I feel he is the better striker with the submission upside and the move-up could negate his cardio and durability issues. With that, Ryan Spann MoneyLine is this week's underdog best bet of the week.

Prediction: Spann by 1st Round KO (Best Bet)

## Su Young You -667 vs. AJ Cunningham +450

Bantamweight grapplers are matched up in this one. Su Young You is a solid grappler who comes in after winning the Road to UFC tournament. AJ Cunningham drops two weight classes from his rough UFC debut here where he will look to show his effective grappling skills with good ground and pound and submissions when in control.

I'm picking You here as I feel he has the skills on the ground to negate any danger that Cunningham may possess.

Prediction: You by Decision

## Josias Musasa -833 vs. Carlos Vera +550

Bantamweights looking to make a name for themselves collide in this prelim matchup. Josias Musasa is an undefeated prospect who had knocked out all seven of his opponents before his decision win on Dana White's Contender Series. Carlos Vera is a submission specialist who has never been knocked out before in his pro-MMA career.

These odds are a lot for a debutant with very little experience against an opponent who has never been knocked out and has the submission upside but Musasa should get a win here.

Prediction: Musasa by Decision

## Sam Hughes +190 vs. Stephanie Luciano -238

Strawweights looking to build off recent victories collide here. Sam Hughes is a gritty wrestler with good cardio although she has struggled against more complete opponents. Stephanie Luciano comes in off a solid UFC debut where she avenged a draw on Dana White's Contender Series with a clear decision where she showed improved grappling defense and was able to take advantage of her striking edge throughout the fight.

I'll take Luciano here as I feel she fixed her cardio and grappling defence issues and should have a clear striking edge in this matchup.

Prediction: Luciano by Decision

## Andre Lima -357 vs. Daniel Barez +275

Sleeper candidate for fight of the night here at Flyweight. Andre Lima is a very skilled fighter with good kickboxing and grappling, as he showed by wrestling his way to victory against Felipe Dos Santos in his last fight. Daniel Barez is a wild and dangerous fighter with good power for the division and decent submission skills as well although his cardio can fail him as he sometimes pushes too wild a pace.

I'm very high on Lima and expect him to get a finish here as he has every advantage against an opponent who has proven he is not afraid to put himself at risk.

Prediction: Lima by 3rd Round TKO

## Josiane Nunes -182 vs. Priscila Cachoeira +147

Bantamweights, each looking to break their losing streaks, square off in this one. Josiane Nunes is a short fighter with a big overhand left. Priscila Cachoeira is a dangerous striker early although she tends to fade late and takes a lot of damage.

I lean towards Nunes here as she has never been finished and will likely be the much fresher fighter in the later rounds.

Prediction: Nunes by Decision

## Yuneisy Duben +280 vs. Carli Judice -370

Flyweights looking to gain valuable experience open the card here. Yuneisy Duben shocked the world with a wild first-round knockout win on Dana White's Contender Series, where she was a massive underdog and showed strong and accurate boxing. Carli Judice is a powerful striker for the division who comes in looking to bounce back from two split-decision losses.

I'll go with Judice here as she has faced much better competition in her career and we have only seen Duben face one fighter with any pro MMA experience and she has never gone to decision.

Prediction: Judice by Decision

UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Dolidze 2 Odds Breakdown

With UFC Fight Night: Vettori vs. Dolidze 2 just days away, the featured fighters on the card shared at media day their final thoughts ahead of fight night. Here's some of the most notable quotes from the UFC Vegas 104 fighters.

## **Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos**

Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos is coming off an impressive first-round finish over Zachary Scroggin in his last fight and is pleased with his next matchup. He believes the fight will be a war on the feet but knows he can take it to the ground if necessary.

> "I'm really happy with this opponent. It's a co main event, it's the tenth year of my career. I just love what I do." - Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos

## **Roman Dolidze**

Roman Dolidze is confident ahead of his rematch with Marvin Vettori and has his sights set on a statement win. While he respects Vettori’s durability, Dolidze believes he can achieve what no one else has.

> "Vettori is a tough guy, no one has finished him ever, but I want to be the first. I have some crazy finishes, so you never know what can happen." - Roman Dolidze

## **Ryan Spann**

Ryan Spann is feeling rejuvenated after his decision to move up in weight. Spann previously competed at Light-Heavyweight where he built a record of 8-5 in the UFC, but now sets his sites on a new weight-class.

> "I don't have to cut weight anymore. I train close to what I'll be at on Friday. I'm in the gym more, and now I can eat more." - Ryan Spann

## **Alexander Hernandez**

Alexander Hernandez is embracing a new mindset, focusing less on external pressure and more on performing for himself. He has a brutally honest mentality and even said that if he doesn't impress himself this weekend, he could walk away from the UFC.

> "I'm not trying to be the next 'anything' now. I want to impress myself. I am going to get a bonus." - Alexander Hernandez

## **Chidi Njokuani**

Chidi Njokuani feels energized at his new weight class and believes the change has improved his performance. Njokuani is 2-0 at Welterweight now, with decision victories over Rhys McKee and Jared Gooden. He'll be hunting for his first finish at 170 this weekend.

> "I'm not slowing down anymore at this new weight class. Who knows, this might turn into a crazy slugfest." - Chidi Njokuani

## **Marvin Vettori**

Marvin Vettori is feeling stronger and more composed heading into his next fight after recovering from a shoulder injury. His last fight was a main event against Jared Cannonier, which was back in June of 2023.

> "I smashed my shoulder last March, but it's much better now. I still love the game, but I'm much more calm now. If angry Vettori was a problem, just wait for calm Vettori." - Marvin Vettori
