When I first glanced at UFC 261’s televised prelims, I was initially disappointed. Names like Tristan Connelly and Stefan Sekulic have long been absent and wouldn’t do much to get me excited for their fights if they were more active anyway based on their tape. Plus, six of the seven participants with UFC experience are coming off losses. However, the more I looked into it, the more I liked some of the fights. For example, Alex Oliveira and Randy Brown – a contest that UFC matchmakers have tried to put together multiple times – is a very interesting contest, even if Oliveira appears to be on the downside.
