The televised prelims of UFC 265 are very much a mixed bag, but not necessarily in the way one would think when they look upon what’s being offered at first glance. There’s no doubt the featured prelim – between Rafael Fiziev and Bobby Green – is absolute fire, but the rest are deceiving.
At a time when most in their 40’s are looking to just hang on, one of the longest tenured members of the roster is looking to extend the longest winning streak of his UFC career. There’s a contest with a pair of former title challengers, but it may also be the least consequential contest on the card as there’s a possibility we never see one of them in the cage again, win or lose.
