UFC Fight Night: Covington vs Woodley

Writer's picture: Zach BZach B

UFC has a great card lined up tonight on ESPN+ so here are my picks for the main card.


Main event: Covington (+122) vs Woodley (-149)

Woodley just hasn't looked the same in recent fights being outworked and dominated in both of his last two fights. With Covington being known for his insane pace and workload, this might end up being a very tough fight for Woodley. We'll see which version of Woodley will show up, but my pick for this fight has to be Covington.


Zach Fight Winner : Covington ll Zach Pick: Covington via Decision


Co main event: Cerrone (+125) vs Price (-155)

Cerrone has had a tough going in his last 4 fights getting finished in 3 out of the 4. Lately for Price it's been KO or get KO'd, winning 2 and losing 2 of his last 4. I think at this point of Cerrone's career its clear his chin just isn't holding up anymore. With Price being the younger fighter and being known for his spectacular KO finishes, I believe he'll be able to find another one against Cerrone.


Zach Fight Winner: Price ll Zach Pick: Price via KO


Chimaev (-500) vs Meerschaert (+385)

Chimaev has been going on a tear recently smashing everyone in his path. He's also been incredibly active, honing in his skills and staying in a good rhythm. I would not be surprised if he continues his exciting streak tonight against Meerschaert.

Walker (-115) vs Spann (-105)

Walker has had a tough last two fights after his very long and exciting win streak. He claims to be more focused than every before in his career now and is determined to make a run for the title. Spann on the other hand is in the middle of a very impressive win streak. Both fighters have proven that they can finish a fight by KO so this fight can end up being one of the most exciting on the entire card. While this fight can truly go either way, I'm personally gonna put my money on the insanely athletic and acrobatic Johnny Walker.


Zach Fight Winner: Walker ll Zach Pick: Walker via KO


Dern (-330) vs Markos (+270)

Dern is a world class champion Jiu Jitsu fighter with just an insane amount of talent when it comes to pulling submissions out of nowhere. Markos is a legit opponent but its been up and down for her recently and she simply hasn't faced this type of grappling before in her career. I believe this will end up being another submission victory for Makenzie Dern.
