The UFC returns this week with... a card? UFC Fight Night: Oezdemir vs. Smith has some fun bouts dotted all up and down it, but for the most part it feels like just an event to keep everyone’s contractual obligations fulfilled. Most notably, if Volkan Oezdemir gets a big KO over Anthony Smith in the main event, he probably has a title shot coming against the Jones/Gus 2 winner. Otherwise, nobody on the event seems especially on the cusp of anything more than another chance to showcase their talent.
The main card breakdown is posted up above, via SoundCloud, but we’re splitting things with our Bloody Elbow Presents YouTube channel.
