On Saturday, March 23, the UFC will be in the city of Nashville, in the US state of Tennessee, at the Bridgestone Arena. The main and most anticipated fight of the day is between the Americans Stephen Thompson e Anthony Pettis, valid for the welterweight division.

Thompson, 36 years old, known by the nickname “Wonderboy”, 3rd in the rankings in his category, despite coming off a defeat to Darrent Hill by unanimous decision of the judges on May 27th last year, is considered the favorite to win. O OddsShark indicates, for him, the quota of R$ 1,26 for every R$ 1,00 invested by you. The cartel Stephen Thompson It's very positive and interesting. There are 14 positive results, 3 negatives and 1 draw.

PUBLICITY:

Eighth placed in the welterweight division, Pettis, aged 32, has more fights than his opponent, and will make his debut in the category. In total, so far, there have been 29 clashes, 21 wins and 8 losses. He often knocks out and submits his opponents. However, in October 2018, “Showtime”, as it is called in MMA, was won by Tony Ferguson. Now, the financial return in the betting world is R$3,90.

Brazilians in the octagon

PUBLICITY:

Certainly, we Brazilians will have an impasse. Two of our compatriots will compete at flyweight: Jussier formiga e Deiveson Figueiredo. Favoritism is on the side of the second fighter, a 31-year-old from Pará, also called “God of War”. The quota of R$ 1,66 to 1 has a good justification. He, in 15 fights, has never been defeated, he is undefeated. In his two most recent appearances, against John Moraga and Joseph Morales, the victories came with technical knockouts through punches.

Estimated at R$ 2,20, again according to the OddsShark, Jussier formiga, 33 years old, born in Rio Grande do Norte, has a record of 22 wins and 5 losses. His most recent setback was in 2017, to Ray Borg. Since then, he has beaten Sergio Pettis, Ben Nguyen and Yuta Sasaki. Whoever wins here, it seems, will compete for the belt with Henry Cejudo. Comparing the two retrospectives, Deiveson Figueiredo evidently proves to be more reliable, but rest assured that it will be a closely contested fight.

PUBLICITY:

We're also going to have women in action, you know? Our representative will be from Paraná Jennifer maia, 30 years old. The Curitiba native will face the Canadian Alexis Davis in the flyweight category as a zebra, however it could very well surprise and leave the bettor with a full pocket. She pays R$2,15, against R$1,69 for her opponent. The Brazilian's record is 15 wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats. Meanwhile, the Canadian representative has 19 triumphs and 8 setbacks. Another detail in common between these two fighters is that they both come from defeats, against Liz Carmouche, in July last year, and Katlyn chookagian, in the same month, respectively.
