Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are back with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW, breaking down a set of nine bouts on the 15-bout UFC VEGAS 19: 'Blaydes vs 'Lewis' Preliminary Card.
"The UFC has a lot of fighters signed that need fights and by god they’re all fighting this Saturday night in Las Vegas. A 15-bout Fight Night, featuring a bunch of bouts that were supposed to happen last year before injuries, travel restrictions, and #COVID infections got in the way. The whole thing is headlined by a quality scrap between Curtis Blaydes and Derrick Lewis. After that, notoriety takes a sharp decline." - 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., February 18th., 2021, right here on our SC channel.
