Welterweight

Leon Edwards shocked the world last August when he knocked out Kamaru Usman with a kick to the head, which gave him the UFC welterweight title. They already had a precedent in the octagon with a victory for Usman. Now, the third time will be the charm for both of them.

Usman had five title defenses, and an undefeated record in Dana White’s firm. The Jamaican Edwards, on the other hand, holds a ten-fight undefeated streak, and has a 50 percent win rate before the cards.

Prediction: Usman wins by decision

Justin Gaethje (+190) vs Rafael Fiziev (-245)

Lightweight

Justin Gaethje is one of the best lightweight fighters who recently stole the spotlight of several title fights. Less than a year ago, he failed in his attempt to win the belt (he lost by submission in round 1 to Charles Oliveira). Therefore, this upcoming fight marks his comeback.

He will face Rafael Fiziev, from Azerbaijan, who is in a great moment of his career, with six consecutive victories, the last two by KO.

Prediction: Fiziev wins by KO

Gunnar Nelson (-435) vs Bryan Barberena (+330)

Welterweight

Gunnar Nelson (Iceland) returned last year after a long career hiatus and won a decision victory. He is a dangerous man, with 13 submission finishes, and 3 KOs in his 17 wins.

At UFC 286, he will face Bryan Barbarena, who had a three-fight winning streak snapped when he lost by submission to Rafael dos Anjos in his last appearance. The American, on the other hand, is more fond of winning by KO: 10 of his 17 victories were by that method.

Prediction: Nelson wins by submission

Jennifer Maia (+140) vs Casey O’Neill (-177)

Flyweight

Brazilian Jennifer Maia’s performance in the UFC is not good, although her November win over Maryna Moroz gave her some breathing room. She will now attempt to break Casey O’Neill’s 9-0 perfect record, which includes four victories in the UFC octagon to date.

The Australian has more height and greater arm reach, and is the favorite to win this upcoming UFC 286 fight.

Prediction: O’Neill wins by unanimous decision

Marvin Vettori (-305) vs Roman Dolidze (+240)

Middleweight

A year and a half ago, Marvin Vettori (Italy) saw his championship dream dashed when he lost to Israel Adesanya. After that, he accumulated one win and one loss, in September, against Robert Whittaker. Therefore, the left-hander needs to win to get another chance.

He will face a bigger man, like Georgian Roman Dolidze, who is coming off a four-fight winning streak in the UFC, the last three by KO.

Prediction: Dolidze wins by KO
