Can Till keep it standing against Brunson?
Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch return to break down this week’s UFC event in Las Vegas, NV. With picks and odds for every fight on the card. From Derek Brunson vs. Darren Till in the main event down to Jonathan Martinez vs. Marcelo Rojo in the opening prelim.
This week’s UFC event was absolutely planned to be a banger when it first got put together. But, the move from London back to Vegas has scrapped a number of fights (along with injuries and other issues). All leaving a card that is still honestly not bad, headlined by a middleweight bout between Darren Till and Derek Brunson, but with more cancelled bookings than bouts still set for September 4th.
