What to Watch For
Romero will find a 2nd right opportunity to claim interim gold. The 40-year old former Olympian was took to task by Robert Whittaker in his last matchup, though he did have his moments. He still remains one of the most dangerous middleweights on Earth, capable of sudden outbursts of fight-ending violence.
Rockhold is coming off another round TKO of former WSOF winner David Branch, and his only loss in his previous seven conflicts came through flash courtesy of Michael Bisping. A thudding kicker having a elite submission wrestling game, Rockhold presents a fascinating challenge for its aging Romero – and Whittaker as well.
Mark Hunt is a staple on any Australian card, since the New Zealander is arguably the region’s biggest celebrity. The slugger will test No. 9 Curtis Blaydes, who’ll do everything he can to bring this fight to the mat. In a different heavyweight collision, undefeated Tai Tuivasa will seem to maintain his 100 percent KO ratio intact if he meets France’s Cyril Asker.
You’ve gotta love the matchup between Australia’s Jake Matthews and Li Jingliang. The Chinese fighter would be the UFC’s greatest hope of creating a native celebrity for the world’s most populous country, and Matthews is exactly the sort of guy who can test him.
26-year older Tyson Pedro is young blood at light heavyweight, though his prospects were dimmed somewhat in his last outing against Ilir Latifi. It was the Australian’s first reduction, and he will not get a simple bounceback fight. Pedro matches the hard-hitting Saparbek Safarov in what ought to be an explosive affair.
