UFC Vegas 56: Volkov vs. Rozenstruik, Picks, Odds, & Analysis | The MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW

Zane Simon & Dan Tom of MMAJunkie.com are here with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW, breaking down a set of 8 bouts on this 14-bout UFC Vegas 56: 'Volkov vs. Rozenstruik' Fight Night event.

"The UFC returns after a week away and they’re bringing another unspectacular Fight Night with them. While the co-main event between Dan Ige and Movsar Evloev should thrill, there’s every chance that Alexander Volkov vs. Jairzinho Rozenstruik ends up as a bit of a grind. Outside of those two bouts there are some clear opportunities for violence up and down the card, but relevance is low." - 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., June 2nd., 2022, right here on our SC channel.
