Evan’s Educated Guesses: UFC Vegas 31: Makhachev v. Moises
MAIN CARD ISLAM MAKHACHEV V. THIAGO MOISES The heir apparent to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s title of King of Russia, Islam Makhachev is making a quick turn around after putting Drew Dober to sleep.

Evan’s Educated Guesses: UFC 256: Figueiredo v. Moreno
I am very excited for this card. This has some great matchups. Figueiredo making a 21 day turn around to defend his title is a baller ass move that not many champs would do, you have to wonder how two weight cuts in one month is going to affect him. Continue Reading
