Roman Dolidze vs. Anthony Hernandez - Middleweight Division

The main event of this card will see the Georgian Roman Dolidze take on American Anthony Hernandez in what is shaping up to be a stellar spectacle. Both fighters are ranked in the top 10 in the Middleweight division and are coming into this one after consecutive victories, meaning all is to play for in this fight.

Dolidze has had an impressive string of fights, winning his last three. His last bout was back in March, winning unanimously against Marvin Vettori. The Georgian has a good camp behind him in being Xtreme Couture, so let’s see if some legendary exposure can help guide him to the finish line in this one.

Hernandez has been on fire over the last year, winning each of his last seven fights in the UFC. Back in February, he won via unanimous decision against Brendan Allen after a fight that went the distance. Although fighting under the moniker “Fluffy”, this is by far the last thing we’d title this deadly fighter, who likes to tap out his opponents, something he has done in 8 of his 14 fights.

We’ve got the submission specialist winning this fight, and you can bet on him with -340 odds today with FanDuel.

Steve Erceg vs. Ode' Osbourne - Flyweight Division

Steve Erceg was initially due to face off against Alex Perez, but after Perez cancelled his engagement for the 14th time since 2019, Ode Osbourne has stepped in as an 11th hour replacement.

Erceg has been unlucky of late within the UFC, losing each of his last three fights. That record doesn’t tell the whole story, with two of those coming by close margins and the Australian will be looking to bounce back from a unanimous decision in March against Brandon Moreno.

“The Jamaican Sensation” Osbourne has got a lot on his shoulders after coming into this fight so late. Still, he showed a lot of heart and will in his last matchup, which saw him land a left hook and a series of ground punches to knockout his opponent, Luis Garcia, and he will be aiming to carry this over to his next fight. 

Despite being the underdog, we can see Erceg being low on confidence, and have Jamaican-born Ode’ Osbourne leaving this one with his hand held high. Currently, he is sitting at +330 odds at FanDuel.

Iasmin Lucindo vs. Angela Hill - Women's Strawweight Division

This fight promises to be excellent viewing, as it will determine which of these women advances in the Women’s Strawweight division. It’s very much a case of experience against youth in the only women’s fight on the main card, with 17 years between the two fighters.

The Brazilian Lucino has had an impressive showing in the UFC, only losing two fights within the promotion so far. At UFC 313, she fell short against Amanda Lemos, losing by unanimous decision after three five-minute rounds. Lucino favors a knockout, and she’ll be wanting to leave this Fight Night with her opponent lying on the mat.

Angela “Overkill” Hill has been somewhat of a yardstick for fighters wanting to advance within the world of mixed martial arts. Her decade-long career has been a mixed bag of emotions, but she was impressive in her last outing against Ketlan Souza, picking up a win via unanimous decision. Fans will be eager to see if the veteran has what it takes to teach the much younger Lucindo a lesson in the octagon this weekend.

The favorite in this one is Iasmin Lucindo, and that’s who we are backing too, and at the time of writing she has -192 odds at FanDuel.

Andre Fili vs. Christian Rodriguez - Featherweight Division

Christian Rodriguez has the chance to add to his already impressive record in the UFC, though he must see off the challenge of a more experienced counterpart to do so..

Throughout his career, Fili has been a journeyman for fighters to test their luck against. On paper, he has lost half of his clashes, but that doesn’t mean you can count the Washington native out, as he has the striking ability to leave opponents reeling. He was forced to tap back in February after his opponent, Melquizael Costa, locked in a guillotine choke. However, he will be looking to redeem himself against Rodriguez.

The 27-year-old Rodriguez has shown fans of mixed martial arts what he is all about during his short career in the sport, only losing three times. He suffered a unanimous defeat on his most recent fight to Melquizael Costa in March, though he will hopefully use his last fight as motivation to show Fili that he is an opponent that can not be overcome.

We’ve got Christian “CeeRod” Rodriguez walking away victorious, and you can bet on him to win this one at FanDuel with -280 odds.

Miles Johns vs. Jean Matsumoto - Bantamweight Division

Perhaps one of the most even matchups of the evening will see Miles Johns take on Jean Matsumoto in a battle for bantamweight dominance.

An experienced figure, Miles “Chapo” Johns has only lost three times during a career that stems back to 2014. One of these losses was in his last fight, where Felipe Lima took him the distance to secure a unanimous victory. Despite the loss, Johns isn’t someone to mess with, as the fighter is a skilled wrestler who can lock you in a hold quicker than most people can count to three.

That doesn’t mean you can write Jean Matsumoto out. The Brazilian has only ever lost one fight in his entire career, by split decision to  Rob Font back in February. Matsumoto is a crafty fighter who loves taking opponents to the mat, so it will be interesting to see if he can use his expertize against someone who is also proficient in taking fights to the ground.

The much younger Matsumoto is the one bookies are expecting to clinch this fight, and is currently sitting at -330 odds on FanDuel.
