Undercard starts in a few hours. I won't be covering it. Although I'm going to try and wake up in time for the main attractions.

 

Alistair Overeem vs Sergey Pavlovich - 3 rounds at Heavyweight

 

Overeem looks in shape and motivated. I think he gets this. Gone with Pavlovich officially but after viewing some tape on him and seeing Overeem walk out I do t have much confidence. Overeem on form beats this guy no question but you never know with him.

 

Overeem is landing a lot of knees to the body. He could well get a finish there.

 

Overeem looks a clear class above. And he takes Pavlovich down and it's not long before he pounds him out with ground and pound. KO1 for Overeem!

 

He is and always will be a glass cannon. Pavlovich had a punchers chance but that's all you need against Overeem. This is the best Overeems looked a while and a much needed win after 2 brutal losses to the main eventers.

 

Officially going with the underdog for this one
Don't like how Blaydes gets caught and hurt with big shots so often. Ngannou has the win over him in the first fight. Ngannou is being written off after a bad loss to Miocic and just an all around bad fight with Lewis.

 

Curtis Blaydes vs. Francis Ngannou II - 5 rounds at Heavyweight

 

Blaydes was out on his feet in both of his last two fights. Hunt had him gone and probably would have gotten the KO had he picked his shots better. Likewise Overeem had him badly hurt but that's the name of the game with him. Many opponents who have had him hurt have rallied to stop him.

 

Ngannou walks out to Tupacs all eyes on me and Blaydes the Mortal combat theme.

 

Called it. Blaydes lost their first fight and gets stunned too much to be favored against Ngannou. Gone in 60 seconds!

 

Only 25 seconds for Ngannou to dispatch Blaydes.
