Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are back with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW, breaking down a set of eight bouts on this 13-bout UFC 261: 'Usman vs Masvidal 2' Preliminary Card. "The UFC returns with a stacked PPV main card this week, including three title fights. Kamaru Usman looks to leave no doubt in his win over Jorge Masvidal, giving ‘Gamebred’ a rematch of their 2020 contest in the main event. In the co-main, Weili Zhang makes the second defense of her Strawweight belt, against former champion Rose Namajunas. Alongside those title fights, Valentina Shevchenko takes on what looks to be the most dangerous contender of her flyweight title reign, tackling powerhouse former strawweight champ Jessica Andrade." - Zane Simon For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the MAIN CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which airs at 2pm Central today, Thurs., April 22nd., 2021, right here on our SC channel.
