UFC on ESPN 9. Woodley vs. Burns and the return of Shevchenko


If three previous UFC tournaments took place in Jackson’s (Florida), now mixed martial arts fights will take place at the UFC Apex arena in Las Vegas. As the restrictions placed on sports are gradually weakening, it can be assumed that the idea of ​​UFC head Dana White about the island on which events will take place has already become irrelevant. However, for the time being it is on this island that the title fight of the Russian Petr Jan and the Brazilian Jose Aldo in the bantamweight is planned.

Next UFC 250 numbering is also planned at the UFC Apex arena. The main event of which will be the battle between Brazilian Amanda Nunes and American Felicia Spencer.

Nevada Sports Commission unanimously approved new protocols allowing events to be held without the presence of fans.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]


UFC Apex arena


Main event


The main event of the upcoming UFC evening will be the meeting of former American welterweight champion Tyrone Woodley and Brazilian Gilbert Burns. Woodley currently ranks first in the list of applicants, and Burns is in sixth position in the ranking.

Woodley held four successful defenses of the title, but last March lost the belt to Kamaru Usman in a five-round duel. And since then he has not gone into the octagon, having taken up work on television and having tried himself as a rapper. Burns goes on a series of five straight victories. Including he inflicted the first defeat in the career of the Russian Alexei Kunchenko.

It is noteworthy that Gilbert Burns held only three fights in this weight category. Previously, he performed in lightweight. And while the Brazilian defeated Kunchenko and the Icelander Gunnar Nelson, agreeing to enter the fray on a short notice.

Woodley’s downtime was as much as 455 days. It is not known how this will affect his form.

Who is the favorite?


According to bookmakers, despite the impressive simple favorite of the meeting is the ex-champion. The odds on his Tyrone Woodley victory are 1.55. The victory of his opponent is estimated at 2.52.

Both fighters are high-level jiu-jitsu masters. Woodley is the owner of a black belt, and Burns is a three-time world champion. Typically, meetings of rivals of this level are held in an unusual element for them – in a stand. That is how the recent battle of Alexei Oleinik and Fabrice Verdum happened.

In favor of Woodley says the presence of a powerful blow. It is also worth noting the fact that none of the fighters lost in a painful or suffocating manner.
