UFC Vegas 50: Santos vs Ankalaev, 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 8 bouts on this 14-bout UFC Vegas 50: 'Santos vs Ankalaev' Fight Night event.

"This weekend’s UFC Vegas 50 fight card has the look of an absolute banger to it. Even outside the light heavyweight top-contender main event between Thiago Santos and Magomed Ankalaev, fights between Marlon Moraes & Song Yadong, Sodiq Yusuff & Alex Caceres, Khalil Rountree & Karl Roberson, and Alex Pereira & Bruno Silva all promise violence. Could be the kind of night where a whole lot of people end up waking up on the canvas." - 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. 10th., 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. The book is available in both hard copy and digital formats at chrisrini.com.
