Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection MAIN CARD SHOW, breaking down a set of 6 bouts on this 12-bout UFC VEGAS 34: 'Jared Cannonier vs. Kelvin Gastelum' Fight Night event Main Card.
"Another decent sized PPV event from the UFC means another thin fight night card in the weeks following. Jared Cannonier and Kelvin Gastelum will battle to see who can reignite their middleweight contender status in the main event. Otherwise the highlight of the card is a flyweight fight between Alexandre Pantoja and Brandon Royval. Most of the rest is pretty forgettable." – Zane Simon
