Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch welcome their first guest to the show, none-other-than former color commentator, Jimmy Smith, to help breakdown this Saturday's, May 18th, UFC on ESPN+ 10 event from Rochester, NY with Prelims starting at 5PM/2PM ET/PT, with the Main Card culminating at 8PM/5PM ET/PT.
The main attraction features Welterweight Bout between former Lightweight Champion, Rafael dos Anjos, and former Interim Lightweight Title contender, Kevin Lee. RDA comes at this fight with a 28-11-0 record, after two losses, most recently defeating Robbie Lawler via Unanimous Decision at UFC on FOX 26, back in December of 2017. Meanwhile, his contender the 'Motown Phenom' has a 17-4-0 record coming into this fight off a loss to Al Iaquinta last December, last defeating Edson Barboza at UFC Fight Night 128 via Cut (Dr. Stoppage) at 2:18 in round 5. Not to be diminished by the main, we have another Welterweight Bout this Saturday, which was between Neil Magny and Vicente Luque, Neil has been replaced with Derrick Krantz and the co-main itself has been replaced with Antônio Carlos Júnior vs Ian Heinisch.
Our special guest, Jimmy Smith will weigh in on both the Main Event and Co-Main Event on this week's show. The guys are here with picks, odds, & analysis for every bout on the MAIN CARD.
