BJ PENN VS. CLAY GUIDA ADDED TO UFC 237
Among the best fighters in MMA background is set to return to the Octagon after this spring. Additionally, the UFC’s return to Ottawa receives a couple of fresh matchups in today’s MMA odds and ends.
BJ Penn vs. Clay Guida, UFC 237
A lightweight link between BJ Penn and Clay Guida is famous for UFC 237, that is set for May 11 in Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. MMAFighting.com broke the news. Penn (16-13-2) is currently 12-12-1 all-time in the Octagon and will be the former UFC welterweight and lightweight winner. However, he’s really fallen on hard times as of late. Now age 40, he was just submitted by Ryan Hall via heel hook and is currently riding a six-fight win series. He refuses to hang up the gloves, presuming he can still hang in the UFC, but it is clear his very best times are years . Guida (34-18) is 14-2 all time from the UFC and most recently lost by submission to Charles Oliveira. But he beat Joe Lauzon and Erik Koch in back-to-back fights before that. Now, you just can’t pick Penn to beat anybody on the UFC roster, also I’d tag Guida as a big favorite to win this fight despite his very own struggles. .
Nordine Taleb vs. Siyar Bahadurzada, UFC Fight Night 150
An intriguing welterweight bout between Nordine Taleb and Siyar Bahadurzada will happen at UFC Fight Night 150, set for May 4 in Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Taleb (14-6) is 6-4 in the UFC and is coming off of consecutive stoppage losses to Sean Strickland and Claudio Silva. Bahadurzada (24-7-1) is 3-3 at the UFC and most recently dropped a choice to Curtis Millender. Both men are on the downsides of their careers, but I view Bahadurzada as the complete fighter and might prefer him to win this one.
Alexey Oleynik vs. Walt Harris, UFC Fight Night 150
Heavyweights Alexey Oleynik and Walt Harris are set to battle UFC Fight Night 150. Ariel Helwani broke the information. Oleynik (57-11, 1 NC) is 6-2 in the UFC and is coming off of a submission win over Mark Hunt. Though he is 41, he is still fighting in an elite level. Harris (12-7) is 5-6 from the UFC and only picked up the biggest win of his career, a split decision nod over Andrei Arlovski. Though Oleynik is getting up there in age, he has looked great as of late and has arguably the best submission game at the heavyweight division, period. Though Harris could cause Oleynik issues if this fight remains standing, Oleynik’s advantage on the floor should make him a large betting popular in this particular bout.
Kyle Nelson vs. Matt Sayles, UFC Fight Night 150
Featherweights Kyle Nelson and Matt Sayles may even meet at UFC Fight Night 150. Nelson (12-2) lost to Carlos Diego Ferreira on brief note in his UFC debut, but that fight was a weight class and he was on a six-fight win streak on the regional scene before that. Sayles (7-2) lost a decision to Sheymon Moraes in his UFC debut following a nice win on Dana White’s Contender Series earned him a UFC deal. This looks like a total coin-flip and I expect the line to be close a Pick’em.
