UFC Fight Night London Who Wins
British fans and fighters have waited for three years, and finally the UFC returns to London this weekend.
The O2 Arena will be the surroundings as UFC London takes place for the first time since 2019, the Covid-19 pandemic saw 2020’s edition of the event cancelled on short notice and then prevented a card from going ahead in 2021.
Our Predictions:
Cory McKenna BY DEC -120
Jack Shore BY DEC +180
Paul Craig BY SUB +350
Ilia Topuria BY SUB +120
Luana Carolina ML +120
Gunnar Nelson BY SUB -125
Pimblett-Vargas under 1.5 rounds -130
Arnold Allen -120
Arnold Allen BY DEC +180
Tom Aspinall ML -130
Really like Arnold Allen and Apsinall this weekend. Believe Aspinall is the real deal, but Volkov is a huge step up. Arnold’s last 4 have gone to decision and I don’t like Hooker going down to 145.
On the matter of underdogs I like Luana to win here by staying at distance and picking McCann apart. She has a 7 inch reach advantage which she knows hot to use. I think we’re getting these odds because McCann is the home town favourite. This is my most confident underdog pick on the card and I would go with 2.5 Units. I would also put money on this going to the distance if you want to juice the odds up a bit but it’s risky. At these odds I think I have to put at least a Unit or two on Hooker and Volkov. I think people are assuming Dan will look like shit because he’s dropping down in weight. I think that’s a simple way to look at things. We don’t know exactly how he used to cut to 145 back in the day, now with a dietitian and careful planning he could look better than ever before at 145. It’s risky so don’t go all in or anything but I think its a fair bet for a Unit.
