UFC Vegas 90: Full Card Breakdown and Predictions
UFC Vegas 90 is set to deliver an exciting night of fights, headlined by a middleweight clash between Brendan Allen and Chris Curtis. This event offers a mix of redemption, rising stars, and fighters looking to make a statement in their respective divisions.
Brendan Allen vs. Chris Curtis
- MMA Fortuneteller’s Thoughts: Allen seeks redemption against Curtis, who previously finished him in the second round. Allen’s impressive run since their last encounter, including a potential seven-fight win streak with a win here, demonstrates his growth and determination. He predicts Allen’s evolution and focus on grappling will secure him a decision victory, highlighting his readiness for higher competition.
- Prediction: Brendan Allen by decision.
Melissa Mullins vs. Nora Cornolle
- MMA Fortuneteller’s Thoughts: Mullin’s grappling and control time are significant advantages against Cornolle, a kickboxer with less effective ground defense. He leans towards Mullins due to her well-rounded skills and potential for ground dominance.
- Prediction: Melissa Mullins to win.
Dylan Budka vs. Caesar Almeida
- Thoughts: Almeida’s kickboxing prowess and improved ground game make him a tough matchup for Budka, a wrestler. The host favors Almeida, noting the evolving landscape where strikers are increasingly nullifying wrestlers’ advantages.
- Prediction: Caesar Almeida to win.
Jean Matsumoto vs. Dan Argueta
- MMA Fortuneteller’s Thoughts: Matsumoto’s striking and pace are expected to overwhelm Argueta, whose best chance lies in exploiting any potential cardio issues of Matsumoto. However, he sees Matsumoto’s striking as too much for Argueta to handle.
- Prediction: Jean Matsumoto to win.
Cynthia Calvillo vs. Piera Rodriguez
- MMA Fortuneteller’s Thoughts: Despite Calvillo’s experience, Rodriguez’s well-rounded game and striking are seen as the deciding factors. He questions Calvillo’s ability to turn her fortunes around against a motivated Rodriguez.
- Prediction: Piear Rodriguez to win.
Norma Dumont vs. Germaine de Randamie
- MMA Fortuneteller’s Thoughts: Dumont’s activity and evolution are contrasted with de Randamie’s striking pedigree and uncertainty coming off a long layoff. He cautiously picks Dumont, considering de Randamie’s potential ring rust.
- Prediction: Norma Dumont to win.
Host’s Predicted Winners:
- Brendan Allen
- Melissa Mullins
- Caesar Almeida
- Jean Matsumoto
