UFC 274: OLIVEIRA VS GAETHJE, Picks, Odds, & Analysis | The MMA Vivisection

Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection MAIN CARD SHOW, breaking down a set of 5 bouts on this 15-bout UFC 274: 'Oliveira vs. Gaethje' PPV event. "Recent UFC Fight Night events may have found themselves a little lacking in star power or notoriety, but this weekend’s UFC 274 PPV card is an excellent example of the kind of quality the promotion can still put together. Charles Oliveira vs. Justin Gaethje is a fantastic lightweight title fight main event, chased by the long awaited rematch between Rose Namajunas and Carla Esparza. Throw Michael Chandler vs. Tony Ferguson in there, and Donald Cerrone vs. Joe Lauzon and it should make for a violent card." - 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., May 5th., 2022, right here on our SC channel.
