UFC Vegas 79: Fiziev vs. Gamrot

Montserrat Rendon vs. Tamires Vidal

The first fight of the night. Vidal is coming off her debut UFC win and is the huge favorite. Rendon is making her UFC debut. Rendon is a grappler who will push the pace in the cage. Vidal will strike on the feet to take Rendon to the ground. Vidal has all the skills to win this fight everywhere. Vidal should win this with ease.

Mizuki Inoue vs. Hannah Goldy

Strawweight female fight! Inoue is coming off a loss but won her UFC debut being 1-1. Goldy is coming off a loss being the huge underdog. Inoue is coming off a three-year layoff due to an ACL injury. Goldy is all over the place in the cage which worries me in this fight. Goldy has decent striking with her volume on the feet. The layoff is the only problem for Inoue but she is the better fighter to me.

Jake Collier vs. Mohammed Usman

Heavyweight fight on our hands! Usman is coming off of two wins and is the slight favorite. Collier is coming off of two losses. Collier has decent cardio and is nice on the feet. Usman is all around a good fighter with his power. The chin works for Usman and has some wrestling in hindsight. This is a good fight overall. Usman can win this fight.

Jacob Malkoun vs. Cody Brundage

Middleweight fight! Malkoun is coming off a win and is the huge favorite. Brundage is coming off of three losses. Malkoun is a heavy grappler and the striking is crafty. Brundage has wrestling skills and that is his game plan. Brundage will need to use the power if he wants to win this. I love Malkoun though to handle business.

Tim Means vs. Andre Fialho

Welterweight fight! Fialho is the favorite and coming off of three losses. Means is a veteran and gatekeeper in the UFC but is also coming off three losses. Means has nice striking and quick on the feet but is aging. Fialho has nice hands and leg kicks in his tool belt. Fialho has a horrible chin when striking. Means can win this fight and this fight should be closer in odds. Means can piece up Fialho as long as Means can avoid the knockout.

Miles Johns vs. Daniel Argueta

Bantamweight banger! Argueta is the slight favorite coming off a premature stoppage. Johns is coming off a win. Johns is quick on the feet and the grappling is there for him. Johns is powerful with his striking and can find a knockout. Argueta wants to take Johns to the ground fast. Argueta should be able to out-wrestle Johns and find a submission win.

Charles Jourdain vs. Ricardo Ramos

Featherweight fight! Jourdain is the favorite and is coming off a win as well as Ramos. Jourdain is tough on the feet and has wild striking. Ramos is powerful with his striking and has leg kicks. Ramos will need to watch the storm that is coming from Jourdain. I do like Ramos to handle the fight in later rounds.

Bryan Battle vs. AJ Fletcher

Welterweight fight! Battle is the favorite coming off a win. Flethcer is coming off a win. Battle is beyond tough on the feet and the submission game is in his tool belt. Battle has the better skills for me than Fletcher. Last fight Fletcher was all over the place which is worrisome. Battle can squeeze out a win.

Marina Rodriguez vs. Michelle Waterson

Strawweight fight! Rodriguez is the huge favorite coming off of two losses. Waterson is coming off of three losses. Rodriguez has power on the feet overall. Waterson is the more experienced fighter with fantastic fighters. Waterson has huge grappling and looks to get Rodriguez to the ground. The leg kicks and striking is in Waterson's tool belt. I like Waterson despite getting older.

Bryce Mitchell vs. Dan Ige

The co-main event is a featherweight fight! Mitchell is coming off a loss but is the favorite. Ige is coming off of two wins. Mitchell has powerful wrestling and loves to get the fight to the ground. Ige can defend the takedowns and can win this fight on the feet. This a fight of styles overall. Mitchell is going to push the pace with his grappling. I like Bryce by a hair.

Rafael Fiziev vs. Mateusz Gamrot

The main event is a light heavyweight fight! Gamrot is coming off a loss while Fiziev is coming off a win. Fiziev is great on the feet and has power with his leg kicks. Gamrot has nice wrestling and will make Fiziev work on the ground. This a massive clash of styles. I like Fiziev to continue the pass on the feet and knock out Gamrot in later rounds.
