Diggn’ Deep on UFC Vegas 9: Overeem vs. Sakai - Prelims preview

Over the last couple of months, the quality of the preliminary contests on Fight Night events has been on the low end. That isn’t me saying they haven’t been fun. That isn’t saying they haven’t been competitive. What I’m saying is the pandemic has made it difficult to consistently schedule high quality and it ends up affecting the prelims the most. However, we may have an exception here….

I’m not talking about the prelims as a whole. But there is a fight that could have reasonable divisional implications, something I haven’t felt confident in saying about a preliminary contest in quite a while.
