This Saturday 12 will have the first UFC fight in Fox. That fight will be a heavyweight between UFC Heavyweight champion Cain Velazquez and Junior Dos Santos. This will be a great fight and a great debut in the network. Cain Velazquez will have a tough fight against Junior Dos Santos who has good takedown defense. Both fighters have good condition and maybe this fight will last the 5 rounds. I think that Velazquez will win this with a combination of wrestling and strikes.
For the second fight will have a lightweight showdown between Clay Guida and Ben Henderson. This fight will be seen in Facebook since the only fight that will be air on Fox will be the main event. The winner of this fight probably will be #1 contender for the title. This fight will be a high pace one both fighter are similar in style although I believe Henderson is stronger than Guida. Henderson last fight was an impressive win over Jim Miller and the way he looked in that fight makes me pick him to win this fight. Guida probably will try to use his rare standup style but eventually this fight will go to the ground where I believe Henderson has the edge. I believe this fight will last the 3 rounds and will be a competitive one but with a win for Henderson.
The next fight will be between Dustin Poirier and Pablo Garza. Poirier has looked good since arriving in the UFC. Pablo Garza is a tall featherweight and he takes advantage of that. He has good submission skills and if Poirier makes a mistake he can easily be submitted. Dustin Poirier has well standup and also has wrestling skill. If he mixes well this too he will win this fight. I expect a standup fight where Poirier will be attacking Garza long legs and win a unanimous decision.
Next will have a fight for the bantamweight division between Norifumi Yamamoto and Darren Uyenoyama. Yamamoto has great standup but it was difficult for him to deal with Demetrious Johnson due to his quickness and fast takedowns. Darren will try to take Yamamoto down but after that fight against Johnson, Darren will look slow for him. I expect this fight to end quickly with a ko by Yamamoto.
