In the history of mixed martial arts, there have been many examples of fighters who did not have the ability to adapt to their opponents and simply refused to fight reasonably. Ion Cucelaba is a vivid example of this caste of athletes, because he doesn't care what the opponent's plan for the fight is, the only goal for this guy is to take the head off the one who stands in front of him.

Ion Cucelaba vs Devin Clark
In the third most important fight at UFC Fight Night 192, the Moldovan Hulk will face Devin Clark, who also does not have a high fighting IQ. Neither one nor the other is included in the ratings, so a victory in this confrontation for any of them will be an opportunity to cover past failures and start moving forward.
UFC veteran Anthony Smith has long been considered a serious threat to light heavyweight champion John Jones until he came face to face with him. After, the career of "Lionheart" began to decline, but now he has come to another "rebirth", having gained a couple of convincing victories.

Anthony Smith vs Ryan Spann
In the main event of the evening at UFC Fight Night 192, Anthony will face “Superman” from Texas - Ryan Spann, who has gained serious momentum lately. The high percentage of early victories for both promises the audience a bright spectacle, and who will emerge from it as the winner - we will analyze it in our forecast.
The heavyweight division is currently the most competitive division in the UFC, with many prospecting a chance to win the title. One of the best Russian heavyweights in the industry, Sergei Pavlovich, also has it, however, so that after pronouncing this statement does not leave an aftertaste of uncertainty, you first need to see what he is after two years of inactivity.

Tom Aspinall vs Sergey Pavlovich
And this can be done on September 5 when watching the UFC Fight Night 191 tournament, in which Tom Aspinall will become his opponent. The Briton certainly cannot be called a fighter chosen for an easy return, since, along with the Russian, he is one of the main avenues for the heavy weight of the organization and has not yet lost under its sign, as a result of which an exciting and competitive confrontation awaits us.

Borussia D vs Eintracht Frankfurt
You can look at three things endlessly: how the fire burns, how the water flows and how Amanda Nunes gets rivals who neither in theory nor in practice pose any danger to her. It is difficult to say how long this will last, since it seems that Dana White himself does not know for what reason he is not organizing her trilogy with Valentina Shevchenko.

Forecast for the fight Amanda Nunes vs Julianna Peña
Julianna Pena, once a promising athlete who at one time had every chance to gain a foothold in the top list, agreed to become the next victim of the double league champion, but in the end decided to take up her personal life, and returning after two and a half years of downtime, she won two victories with one defeat, which earned her a title chance.

In the UFC welterweight category, a difficult situation has developed: the dominant champion Kamaru Usman does not plan to leave the throne, and there are no new contenders on the horizon yet.

The UFC leadership is working on various strategies for the development of certain fighters. If some take off in the ratings after 2-3 fights, then others have been fighting for a place in the TOP 15 for years. Islam Makhachev belongs to the second type, because he has been in the UFC since 2015, but still gets those who are below him in the ratings as opponents. However, this time for an athlete from AKA, we have prepared a difficult opponent, even if he is not so popular.

Prediction for the fight Islam Makhachev vs Tiago Moises
Tiago Moises is a strong grappler, and his style will make it possible to finally reveal all the talents of Islam. Let's just say that this is the last step, after passing which, our fighter will finally convince everyone of his championship ambitions. And the fact that the guys will lead the tournament indicates the high confidence of the bosses in their capabilities.
