Main Card Predictions and Breakdown
Justin Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett — Interim Lightweight Title (Main Event)
In the main event, ‘The Highlight” Justin Gaethje returns to challenge fan favorite Paddy “The Baddy” Pimblett for the interim UFC lightweight title. Gaethje brings elite power, pressure, and insane chin, while Pimblett brings flair, volume striking, and the momentum of an undefeated UFC run.
Both fighters have very wild styles: Gaethje thrives in chaotic, hard-hitting wars, and Pimblett favours range, creativity, and constantly pushing the pace. These styles make for a compelling matchup.
Prediction: Justin Gaethje via TKO. His pressure, wrestling mix, and ability to make fights ugly will see Pimblett fall in the later rounds.
Sean O’Malley vs. Song Yadong — Bantamweight
2 elite bantamweights square off in a highly anticipated striking battle. O’Malley is one of the most technically gifted and unpredictable strikers in the UFC, while Song Yadong brings precision, heavy kicks, and excellent counters.
This fight has all the makings of a fan favourite, with both fighters capable of turning the lights out at any moment. Expect high volume and sharp striking exchanges.
Prediction: Sean O’Malley via decision. His variety of strikes and defensive movement should give him the edge on the cards.
Waldo Cortes-Acosta vs. Derrick Lewis — Heavyweight
A banger heavyweight clash featuring rising contender Waldo Cortes-Acosta against UFC legend and KO artist Derrick “The Black Beast” Lewis. Cortes-Acosta brings athletic power and finishing instincts, while Lewis has decades of octagon experience and one-punch KO threat.
Lewis has slowed with age but still carries massive power, and Cortes-Acosta’s pressure could force exchanges.
Prediction: Derrick Lewis via KO. His unpredictability and wild starts has the potential to end the fight at any moment
Natalia Silva vs. Rose Namajunas — Women’s Flyweight
Natalia Silva takes on former two-division champion Rose Namajunas in an important women’s flyweight bout. Silva is a dangerous striker with heavy hands, while Namajunas brings elite technique, heart, and fight IQ.
With both fighters able to finish fights on the feet, this matchup has upset potential.
Prediction: Rose Namajunas via decision. Her experience and adaptability should see her outwork Silva over five rounds.
Arnold Allen vs. Jean Silva — Featherweight
A featherweight battle between Arnold Allen and Jean Silva. Allen has sharpened his boxing and footwork to become one of the division’s most consistent performers. Silva brings high-output striking and knockout upside.
Expect a tactical striking fight with small windows for big shots from both men. This fight has the makings to be a potential FOTN
Prediction: Arnold Allen via decision. His clean, calculated striking and ring control should secure him the win, but I think it will be a war.
