UFC 232 Predictions: Andrei Arlovski vs. Walt Harris
Despite being on a two-fight skid, Andrei Arlovski has looked better than he did a few years ago. Part of it is fighting the likes of Tai Tuivasa and Shamil Abdurakhimov, where he used to fight thunderous hitters like Francis…
UFC 232 Predictions: Corey Anderson vs. Ilir Latifi
The UFC’s light heavyweight division seems to have stopped being the worst division in the promotion, finding a good number of prospects (Dominick Reyes, Magomed Ankalaev, Aleksandar Rakic, Darko Stosic) to jump above a stagnant heavyweight division in that regard.…
UFC 232 Predictions: Carlos Condit vs. Michael Chiesa
One of the most entertaining fighters in the history of the 170-pound division, the decline of Carlos Condit has been somewhat saddening to watch, especially considering that he should’ve won the UFC Welterweight Championship but for a bad decision from…
UFC 232 Predictions: Cristiane “Cyborg” Justino vs. Amanda Nunes

Conor McGregor proved that Tony Ferguson can beat Khabib Nurmagomedov
Before their fight at UFC 229, I predicted that Conor McGregor had the best chance of beating Khabib Nurmagomedov. Khabib’s striking ranges from unimpressive to sloppy, a style tailor-made for counters. I would like to walk back that statement and…

Before Khabib Nurmagomedov battles Conor McGregor in the UFC 229 main event this weekend, The Body Lock takes a look at what to expect from the mega-fight and tries to forecast who will come out on top. Here are our…
Conor McGregor has the best chance to beat Khabib Nurmagomedov
For many, the day of reckoning has come for Conor McGregor. Conor is a great fighter, but there’s no question that the UFC brass steered the most difficult match-ups away from him. It’s odd that, in a division so full…
