The UFC has announced numerous new bouts throughout the last few weeks because of its upcoming pay-per-view cards that summer. Below are my thoughts on those new matchups.
Talita Bernardo vs. Melissa Gatto, UFC 237
Due to an injury to Jessica Rose Clark, Talita Bernardo will now meet UFC newcomer Melissa Gatto at a women’s bantamweight bout at UFC 237, taking place May 11 in Jeunesse Arena at Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Bernardo (6-3) is currently 1-2 in the UFC and is coming off of a decision win over Sarah Moras. Gatto (6-0-2) is undefeated in her MMA career fighting on the Brazilian regional arena. Bernardo hasn’t looked great from the UFC and considering Gatto is only 22-years-old she is definitely someone to keep your eye on when the chances for this battle come out. If she’s the underdog she could be worth a punt.
Karolina Kowalkiewicz vs. Alexa Grasso, UFC 238
A women’s strawweight bout between Karolina Kowalkiewicz and also Alexa Grasso is set for UFC 238, which takes place June 8 at United Center in Chicago, Illinois. The card features five women’s bouts in complete, including this particular fight.
Kowalkiewicz (12-4) is just 5-4 at the UFC and is coming off of back-to-back losses to Jessica Andrade and Michelle Waterson. She is making a fast return to the Octagon as the struggle against Waterson took place only a couple of weeks before, and she’s likely in a must-win situation in this struggle against Grasso in UFC 238. Grasso (10-2) is 2-2 in the UFC but hasn’t fought since last May when she had been filed by Tatiana Suarez. The two Kowalkiewicz and Grasso are solid-yet-flawed fighters, but based on her experience I’d guess Kowalkiewicz would be a small favorite in the open.
Diego Sanchez vs. Michael Chiesa, UFC 239
Welterweights Diego Sanchez and Michael Chiesa are scheduled to fight at UFC 239, taking place July 6 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Sanchez (29-11) is 18-11 all time inside the Octagon and is among those longest-tenured fighters around the UFC roster and also a future Hall of Famer. He proceeded to welterweight last year and has since gone 1-2 with a knockout loss to Matt Brown followed by back-to-back wins over Craig White and Mickey Gall, who he just finished in devastating fashion. Chiesa (15-4) is 8-4 in the UFC and submitted Carlos Condit in his welterweight debut in his final bout. Both Sanchez and Chiesa looked amazing in their past fights, but provided that Sanchez is 37 and has obtained a whole lot of damage throughout his career, you need to lean towards Chiesa here.
Edmen Shahbazyan vs. Jack Marshman, UFC 239
Middleweight prospect Edmen Shahbazyan yields at UFC 239 when he takes on Jack Marshman.
Shahbazyan (9-0) is just 21-years-old and is already 2-0 in the UFC with a knockout win over Charles Byrd and also a split decision win over Darren Stewart. He’s among the top young prospects at 185lbs and all but one of his career victories has come by knockout. Marshman (23-8) is 3-3 at the UFC and is coming from a controversial split decision win over John Phillips. Although Marshman is a solid gateekeeper in 185lbs, Shahbazyan is the future of the branch, and he will undoubtedly be a huge favorite heading into this bout.
