Diggin’ Deep on UFC 241: Cormier vs. Miocic 2 - Early prelims preview

There isn’t much to see in the early prelims of UFC 241… unless you are a completist (for which I would sheepishly raise my hand even if I wasn’t employed by Bloody Elbow) or find enjoyment in win-or-go-home contests. There are two women’s contests in the early prelims, none of the combatants possessing a winning record. That doesn’t mean the action will suck. There’s a reason the UFC has kept around the women on the early prelims despite the fact none of them have a winning UFC record. The one fighter on the early prelims with a winning record in the world’s largest MMA organization, Kyung Ho Kang, is a solid fighter, though many believe he was cheated out of his physical prime due to mandatory military service for all qualifying South Korean males.
