After rewarding fans with one of the top fight cards of the year in the spring, UFC Fight Night returns to London on Saturday, headlined by heavyweights Curtis Blaydes and Tom Aspinall (3 p.m. ET on ESPN+).
During the last Fight Night in the UK, only three of the 12 bouts ended in decisions. Will we get more of that at the O2 Arena on Saturday?
Blaydes, ranked No. 4 in ESPN's divisional rankings, enters the bout riding back-to-back wins in the division. While, Aspinall, No. 6 in ESPN's rankings, is undefeated in his five Octagon appearances. Only one of his opponents, Andrei Arlovski, made it past Round 1.
Either fighter could stake their claim as the top contender for the heavyweight title with an impressive win.
Brett Okamoto spoke to Xtreme Couture MMA head coach Eric Nicksick to get his perspective on the main event while betting experts Ian Parker and Reed Kuhn added their insights and analysis for everything from the main event to some intriguing bets they like lower down the card.
