The BMF belt doesn’t matter but basically every fight on this card has the potential to be an absolute banger. Which 291 fight are you most hyped for?
On paper it looks like a can’t miss. In practice so many of the stacked cards don’t deliver. Last weekend being a huge exception.
- Poirer v Gaethje
is a prety much guaranteed banger - Blachowicz v Pereira
has a lot of potential to be a banger - Costa v Aliskerov
I'm not real excited for, but I hope I'm surprised - Ferguson v Green
I'm worried about Ferguson. - Chiesa v Holland
Should be fun, those guys are usually fun to watch - Thompson v Pereira
Not expecting much, but there is a lot of potential firepower there. I'm worried that it'll be too much cat and mouse for my liking - Hot Balls vs Lima
Heavyweights are so unpredictable. I'm expecting a slog. Or a KO. I don't see anything in between, which isn't going out on a limb as far as predictions go.
The rest of the card I don’t know. I hope that I catch them and not turn to something else as I wait because of UFC’s shit pacing, and forget to turn back until the fights are over.
Yeah it’s like a rule that you shouldn’t get too excited for these extra stacked cards, but I can’t help getting a bit riled up as it gets closer. The main and co are of course what I’m most excited about but as you laid out, there’s hope all over the card.
I’m just banking on at least one or two being memorable

That’s really enough to make me happy. This card seems to almost guarantee that.
The only think I don’t like in this card is the location. Last time UFC were in Salt Lake, the fights had weird paces, with the fighters gassing out early in the fight.
