UFC 265: BACK TO VETERANS AND FAMILIAR FACES

Posted on July 29, 2021 by A. J. Riot

The next big outing for the UFC will be on August 7th at the Toyota Center in Houston. UFC 265: Lewis vs Gane will be the event, as the interim heavyweight title goes up for grabs, with the winner the most likely to get a shot at Francis Ngannou’s heavyweight title. It will be a great night of action, and with fans getting used to being in the arenas again, it will be good to have your numbers straight and try out this affiliate code for a solid promo offer. On the same night, women’s Bantamweight champion Amanda Nunes, will face challenger Julianna Pena for the Bantamweight title. The event will be a breath of fresh air and a wave of memories for diehard UFC fans, who will have a few veteran faces to root for, including Nunes, Lewis, and Aldo.

Derrick Lewis will be looking to take out Gane and solidify his chances at being the next man up for the Heavyweight title. The champion, Ngannou is not happy with the fight but has never been known to shy away from a contender. The Heavyweight division became Ngannou’s playground after taking out Stipe Miocic for the title earlier this year. Lewis is a heavy hitter and a knockout specialist. He will hold a weight advantage over Gane, but the Frenchman is more balanced and can mix up his approach with great striking, grappling, and even submissions. His defence is better than Lewis’, and he has a reach advantage over the Black Beast. The fight will be interesting for Gane, who is challenging and defending an unbeaten record in the UFC.

Rematches The Order Of The Day On Recent UFC Cards

Posted on June 15, 2021 by A. J. Riot

When it comes to UFC competition, the promotion loves itself some rematch action.

That was certainly the case with UFC 263. Israel Adesanya easily handled Marvin Vettori in their second bout, defending his UFC world middleweight title with a one-sided unanimous decision over Marvin Vettori. That wasn’t the outcome in the in the world flyweight title bout, though. Champion Deiveson Figueiredo was submitted by challenger Brandon Moreno in their second meeting inside the octagon.

It’s not difficult to understand this love affair with rematches. They’re easy to promote, after all. There’s already an established storyline. If the previous bouts were seesaw affairs, it also makes for lucrative opportunities when it comes to the UFC betting lines on these fights.

UFC 264 on July 10th from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas will also see a rematch as its main event bout. Dustin Poirier takes on Conor McGregor in what will be the third leg of a trilogy of fights between the two men. That the winner will likely be in line for a shot at middleweight champion Charles Oliveira’s world title belt only adds further intrigue to this rematch.
