UFC 270: NGANNOU VS GANE, Picks, Odds, & Analysis | The MMA Vivisection

Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection MAIN CARD SHOW, breaking down a set of 4 bouts on this 13-bout UFC 270: 'NGANNOU VS GANE' PPV event. "The UFC returns to PPV this Saturday with a card somewhat ravaged by COVID and injuries. Still, the main and the co-main event both promise to be fantastic, so as long as Francis Ngannou squares off with Ciryl Gane and Brandon Moreno fights Deiveson Figueiredo to close out the show, the rest really doesn’t matter too much." - Zane Simon For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the PRELIMS CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which airs at 2pm Central today, Thurs., Jan. 20th., 2022, right here on our SC channel. The MMA Vivisection is brought to you by 'The Fine Art of Violence', a collection of art and essays recapping the year in MMA by Chris Rini, featuring the most talented artists and writers in Mixed Martial Arts.
