Gregory Rodrigues vs Denis Tiuliulin

A middleweight bout between Gregory Rodrigues and Denis Tiuliulin follows. Again, both fighters come into the contest on the back of losses and need to get the win.

Our prediction: Gregory Rodrigues beats Denis Tiuliulin by submission.

Chris Weidman vs Brad Tavares

The last fight on the prelims before the main card is a blockbuster middleweight contest. Former champion Chris Weidman will take on experienced Brad Tavares.
