Brendan Allen vs. Bruno Silva
UFC Odds: Brendan Allen -190 vs. Bruno Silva +160
Featherweight Bout
23-8 underdog Bruno Silva gives up 2 inches in height and an inch in reach. Silva won his last bout, knocking out Brad Tavares in the first round. Also, Silva is 20-0 via TKO/KO victories.
However, Silva is 0-6 via submission wins. Brendan Allen is 12-1 via submission victories. Silva must get Allen out of there before the fight goes to the ground. That’s not likely to happen.

David Onama vs. Gabriel Santos
UFC Odds: David Onama +190 vs. Gabriel Santos -230
Featherweight Bout
Although Santos is the heavy favorite, Onama has the 4-inches reach advantage. The underdog in this has won 3 of his last 5. Onama did lose his last bout to Nate Landwehr via majority decision.
What impresses about Onama is that he’s not only 10-2, but he hasn’t lost a bout via knockout or technical knockout. He also hasn’t lost via submission.
Gabriel Santos is 10-1. Santos was undefeated until his first UFC fight, which ended in a split-decision loss to Lerone Murphy. Murphy is more highly-regarded than Onama. So Santos should bounce back with a win.

Austen Lane vs. Justin Tafa
UFC Odds: Austen Lane +150 vs. Justin Tafa -175
Heavyweight Bout
Favorite Justin Tafa is on a 2-match winning streak. Both fights, versus Harry Hunsucker and against Parker Porter, ended via knockout. Tafa is 6-3 overall and 6-1 via TKP/KO wins.
On Saturday, Tafa faces an opponent with serious physical advantages. Austen Lane has a 6 inches height advantage and a 6 inches reach advantage over Tafa.
Lane is 35-years-old and is making his UFC debut. This is a huge step up for Lane. He has a chance, but Tafa has a great chin and has fought and beaten taller fighters before.

Amanda Ribas vs. Maycee Barber
UFC Odds: Amanda Ribas -200 vs. Maycee Barber +170
Women’s Flyweight Bout
Based on records, Barber versus Ribas should be one of the main card’s most competitive bouts. Underdog Barber is 12-2. Ribas is 11-3.
Although the chalk has lost 2-of-5, Ribas did win her last via unanimous decision versus Viviane Araujo. Barber, though, is on a 4-match winning streak. The chalk offers underlay odds to win. Back the underdog to cash.

Josh Emmett vs. Ilia Topuria
UFC Odds: Josh Emmett +260 vs. Ilia Topuria -330
Featherweight Bout
Josh Emmett was on a decent win streak until his last, a second round submission loss to Yair Rodriguez. But before dumping on Josh, it’s important to note the defeat happened in a championship bout.
However, although Emmett will fight well in this, beating 13-0 Ilia Topuria doesn’t seem possible. Topuria is 4-0 via TKO/KO and 8-0 via submission victories. Ilia gets it done.
