UFC 300 Predictions: Night of Champions and Contenders
Pereira vs Hill Prediction
The main event starts our UFC 300 full card predictions. The light heavyweight title is on the line as Poatan defends his belt for the first time, against the man who never lost the title.
Hill had to hand the belt back to Dana White in 2023 after getting injured and now he’s hoping to win it back.
However, it’s pretty tough to see past the champion and our first of the UFC 300 picks is for Periera to come out on top.
Pereira to win
Zhang vs Yan Prediction
The first all Chinese title fight in UFC history promises to be an exciting match up. Both women have the ability to finish the fight inside the distance.
It’s likely to be fast-paced and Zhang will be trying to get in close to put the pressure on the title challenger.
Zhang to win
Gathje vs Holloway Prediction
The BMF title is on the line, which means it’ll have featured on two occasions more recently than Jon Jones heavyweight title.
‘Jokes’ aside this could be an absolute banger with two of the most exciting fighters on the UFC roster facing each other in the Octagon.
Expect fireworks and to realise how good this card is if Gathje vs Holloway isn’t even the co-main!
Gathje to win
Oliveria vs Tsarukyan Prediction
Our UFC 300 picks continue with another incredible match up. Former lightweight champion, and the man with the most finishes in UFC history goes up against the up and comer hoping to secure his own title shot.
The oddsmakers have made Oliveria the underdog, something that doesn’t happen too often for him. But only a fool would rule out the 34 year old
Oliveria to win
Nickal vs Brundage Prediction
One more fight before we get into our UFC 300 prelims predictions and it’s the fight on the main card with the biggest distance in odds. Bo Nickal is a huge favorite against Cody Brundage, despite being just 5-0 in MMA.
The 28 year old is considered a future UFC champion and with five early finishes in his five fights so far its easy to see why.
Nickal to win
UFC 300 Prelims Predictions: Our Top Picks
Prochazka vs Rakic Prediction
A fight that doesn’t have any right to be in the prelims, but that’s how stacked this card is, no we won’t stop going on about it.
Former light heavyweight champion Prochazka is actually the underdog in this one. The loss to Pereira last time out was his first since 2015.
Rakic is coming back from a near two year lay-off from injury but still goes into this one as favorite, as he looks to battle back into title contention
Prochazka to win
Kattar vs Sterling Prediction
The next of our UFC 300 prelims predictions comes from the featherweight division. It features yet another former UFC champ, in the form of ex bantamweight title holder Aljamain Sterling.
This is the Funk Master’s debut in the heavier weight and that’s why he’s considered the underdog. That’s despite Kattar having lost three of his last four and his most recent two fights.
Sterling to win
Andrade vs Rodriguez Prediction
The final one of our UFC 300 picks comes from the women’s strawweight division and on the early prelims.
It’s a battle of two Brazilians trying to get into title contention, and the winner will be keeping a keen eye on the co-main event later in the night.
This is another tight one in the eyes of the odds and we reckon the experience of Andrade at the top level will work in her favor.
Andrade to win
