Fight Predictions: UFC 269: Oliveira vs Poirier

Tonight brings the last 'UFC' PPV of the year, and as always, those sons of guns have crammed it with TNT!!!

Top to bottom, there are match-ups that just have you chomping at the bit to see.

Just take the first fight on the whole card, Gillian Robertson (@savage_ufc) vs Priscila Cachoeira (pedritaufc) 🇧🇷 Robertson is a savage, but times have been rough, on the flip, Cachoeira is riding a wave. So you know both ain't coming to play nice!

In the same division, we have Miranda Maverick (@fearthemaverick_homt) & Erin Blanchfield (@blanchfield_mma). These young killers have been on a tear since lacing them up in 'Invicta FC' @invictafc, and their UFC work has just shone a light on the talent. Which makes this a must see!!!

Obviously, there's been talk on the comments, and placement on the card, BUT, Pedro Munhoz (@pedromunhozmma) going up against the G.O.A.T, Dominick Cruz (@dominickcruz) 🇲🇽 🇺🇸 Come on, this fight can't be anything but fire!!!

On the 'Main Card', Geoff Neal (@HandzOfSteelMMA) 🇺🇸 vs Santiago Ponzinibbio (@SPonzinibbioMMA) 🇦🇷 brings together two hungry Welterweights, that can end a night, "just like that".

AND then, in the Co-main, Julianna Peña (@VenezuelanVixen) 🇻🇪 🇺🇸 has been vocal, beating the drum, laying her claim for a challenge to the Women's Bantamweight throne. The thing is (ding), to get there, she has to go through the MOST dangerous woman on the planet, the G.W.O.A.T, the Lioness, Amanda Nunes (@Amanda_Leoa) 🦁!!!!

AND, closing the show, Dustin Poirier (@dustinpoirier) 💎 FINALLY gets that second shot at what would be the crowning moment of his career! To do it though, he'll have to face the new king, Charles Oliveira (@CharlesDoBronxs) 🇧🇷, who has realised the potential he showed all the way back on the 15.09.2010. Redefined striking, a new belief in his skillset, losing is not on his mind. So this fight has all the making of a classic!!!
