UFC London is place with its main and co-main event. The card takes place March 16 at The O2 Arena in London, England, along with also my ideas on the two new high-profile spells added into the card are under.
Darren Till vs. Jorge Masvidal, UFC Fight Night 147
An intriguing welterweight matchup involving Darren Till and Jorge Masvidal is set as the headlining five-round fight at UFC Fight Night 147. ESPN broke the information. Till (17-1-1) is 5-1-1 general in the UFC and in his last bout endured his first career loss by entry to champion Tyron Woodley in UFC 228. Till is still one of the most popular fighters in the branch, and all Europe, so despite the loss he consistently made a great deal of awareness to headline this card at London. He flirted with the idea of moving up to middleweight but chose to remain at welterweight to receive his hands on Masvidal, who stylistically should put on a good struggle against Till. Masvidal (32-13) is 9-6 overall from the UFC and hasn’t fought since a 2017 conclusion loss to Stephen”Wonderboy” Thompson. He has not really won a fight in almost two decades since a TKO win over Donald Cerrone, but is still clearly a dangerous and skilled fighter. Masvidal was presumed to combat Nick Diaz in UFC 235, but that fight fizzled and he’ll now take on Till.
I’m expecting a very competitive fight between Till and Masvidal, however given that he’s from England and contemplating all the betting support he generally gets, I totally expect Till to be the preferred here. I really do think it is a close fight but would definitely be interested in Masvidal if he is available at a plus amount.
Leon Edwards vs. Gunnar Nelson, UFC Fight Night 147
At the same time, a welterweight bout between contenders Leon Edwards and Gunnar Nelson is going to be the co-main event of UFC Fight Night 147. Edwards (16-3) is 8-2 at the UFC and is actually riding a quiet six-fight win streak at the moment using a decision win over Donald Cerrone in his last outing. He has quietly evolved into one of the best welterweights in the UFC, but was waiting to get his hands on a top-10 opponent. He has finally found a taker in the kind of Nelson, who’s coming off of a huge win over Alex Oliveira in UFC 231. Nelson (17-3-1) rode a 1.5 years layoff to the Oliveira battle but completely dominated him for a few of their biggest wins of his UFC career up to now. He has never risen to the championship level that lots of observers of the game expected he at one point in time, but he’s still proven himself to be a good fighter at 170lbs, along with the triumph over Oliveira revealed just how good he’s at his finest.
This seems like another competitive fight. Edwards has shown a yearlong game in his last few fights but Nelson is clearly an incredibly-dangerous finisher and is coming from a large win. Based on the recent win over Oliviera I would guess Nelson is pegged as the favorite here, but I think Edwards could possess a lot of dangers in what ought to be a very close fight.
