UFC London | Prelim Preview
Saturday, July 23rd (3:00 PM EST Main Card, 12:00 PM EST Prelims)
Mason Jones vs. Ludovit Klein
WATCH - Mason Jones puts on some fun lightweight bouts and will have a bit of a hometown boost being Welsh on the British card. Just needs to start stringing wins together. Klein can also be fun but usually fights at featherweight, and wasn’t particularly big there either, so he may be in over his head with this weight division move.
FGTDalgo Bet - Fight Goes The Distance 1u @ +135 (better than -166.3)
Marc Diakiese vs. Damir Hadzovic
BATHROOM BREAK - Another unranked lightweight bout but these two have have too many UFC fights to still be considered prospects. They might be coming off a win right now but they are clearly 50/50 journeymen.
Nathaniel Wood vs. Charles Rosa
WATCH - For all you Paddy fans out there, here’s a tale you’ll be interested to hear. Nathaniel Wood was a cage warriors bantamweight champion, and an absolute English star. Entered the UFC with some real hype and kept the momentum going for a while with 3 straight submission wins. But he hit the ceiling before he could even crack the rankings, went 1-2 in 2020 and now is going to have to try and find his footing after a 2 year lay off. Would be the perfect card for Wood to get a rebound or else he’ll end up with a career more similar to his opponent’s who sports a losing UFC record with 12 fights. Wait a second did that say featherweight? That is a bold strategy for 5’6” Wood to get his career back on track, especially against a guy who just fought at lightweight.
Makwan Amirkhani vs. Jonathan Pearce
WATCH - Pearce has some real talent and it will be interesting to see if he can get past these tougher tougher veterans who hover just under the featherweight rankings like Amirkhani.
Muhammad Mokaev vs. Charles Johnson
WATCH - Mokaev is a British fighter whose family hails from the caucus region. If that wasn’t star material enough for you, he’s also undefeated and absolutely obliterated his opponent in his debut. This guy has future popular champ written all over him! Any other weight class and he’d already be fighting with a ton of hype behind him! Give these flyweights the respect they deserve people!
Jai Herbert vs. Kyle Nelson
BATHROOM BREAK - Too many prelim fights to bother even trying to remember who these 1-3 guys are.
Mandy Bohm vs. Victoria Leonardo
BATHROOM BREAK - Nope.
Claudio Silva vs. Nicolas Dalby
BATHROOM BREAK - Never watched a Dalby fight that wasn’t mind numbingly boring and Silva’s abilities fell off a cliff recently. This fight deserves its placement on this card.
FGTDalgo Bet - Fight Goes The Distance 1u @ -120 (better than -162.7)
