UFC Vegas 57: Tsarukyan vs Gamrot, 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 6 bouts on this 12-bout UFC Vegas 57: 'Tsarukyan vs. Gamrot' Fight Night event.

"The UFC is back with a decent quality Fight Night this week. It may not quite have as much curb appeal as last week's card, but the main event between Arman Tsarukyan and Mateusz Gamrot has the looks of a high level wrestling and grappling battle. Neil Magny looks to stand strong in his welterweight gatekeeper role against Shavkat Rakhmonov. And Chris Curtis returns to action against BJJ legend Rodolfo Vieira." -- Zane Simon 6.23.22

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 23rd., 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.
