The Bloody Elbow team has made its predictions for Saturday’s UFC Vegas 27 card, and most of us are picking Rob Font to notch the biggest win of his career in his main event battle with former bantamweight champion Cody Garbrandt. As for the co-main event, the same applies for the staff leaning towards Yan Xiaonan over former strawweight champion Carla Esparza.
Rob Font vs. Cody Garbrandt
Zane Simon: I really don’t like picking this fight. On the one side you’ve got a truly elite athletic talent in Cody Garbrandt who has shown a fatal tendency not to give his opponents the respect they deserve, and is just coming off of a brutal bout with COVID-19.
