UFC Columbus: Blaydes vs. Daukaus, Picks, Odds & Analysis |The MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW

Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS CARD SHOW, breaking down a set of 7 bouts on this 13-bout UFC Columbus: 'Blaydes vs Daukaus' Fight Night event. "This week’s UFC Columbus fight card doesn’t have the same curb appeal as their recent London trip, but it still promises to be an interesting event. In the main event Curtis Blaydes looks to keep his spot among the heavyweight top contenders against Chris Daukaus. In the co-main, Alexa Grasso searches for her own potential spot as a title challenger against Joanne Wood. Throw a flyweight title eliminator between Askar Askarov and Kai Kara-France in the mix and it should make for a meaningful night of fights." - Zane Simon For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the MAIN CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which already aired at 1PM Central today, Thurs., Mar. 24th., 2022, right here on our SC channel.
