Here we go! Officially the best card of the year thus far and on paper, one of the best in recent times, UFC 214 is upon us this weekend. Three title fights, several fight of the year possibilities and a lot of carnage and destruction. The UFC have delivered on this one and it promises to be a night to remember.
Headlining the event is one of the biggest rematches of all time. Jon Jones returns to reclaim his throne against the current champion Daniel Cormier. These two men do not like each other and I expect to see a fight to the death because more than the title is on the line for the two fighters. Tyron Woodley defends his 170 lb belt against the BJJ master Demian Maia. Woodley has looked unconvincing as champion but Maia may allow him to put an end to that. Maia has decimated his opponents with ease thanks to his BJJ mastery and if he takes Woodley down, we could see a new champion. Cyborg returns to 145 and fights evinger for the title. I fear for evinger in this fight and I can see a repeat of the scene in jurassic park where they drop the lamb into the T Rex den. My favourite match up of the night is none other than Robbie Lawler vs Donald Cerrone. Two men who have done it all and love going toe to toe and fighting. This could be the UFC's Gatti vs Ward. Both men are coming off concussive losses so it will be interesting to see how they look but once they start throwing, violence of the most extreme will ensue. Manuwa vs Oezdemir rounds off the main card with a solid prelim card as Barao takes on Sterling and Lamas vs Knight is a dark horse.
Main Card:
Jon Jones vs Daniel Cormier 2 (Light heavyweight title)
Tyron Woodley vs Demian Maia (Welterweight title)
Cris Cyborg vs Tonya Evinger (Featherweight title)
Robbie Lawler vs Donald Cerrone
Jimi Manuwa vs Volkan Oezdemir
Predictions: Jones,Woodley, Cyborg,Lawler,Manuwa.
