UFC 168 predictions: Weidman v Silva, Rousey v Tate

December 28, 2013 By John Hoven


It’s finally upon us. After nearly six months of build up, UFC 168 will go down in Las Vegas in mere hours.

To see pre-fight comments from champion Ronda Rousey, challenger Miesha Tate and company president Dana White, click here.

Tweet from the night before UFC 162:

Weidman, Edgar, Kennedy, Munoz, Swanson…5-0 w/ those main card picks at #UFC162 tonight. (takes a bow…I think that’s what the kids say)

— The Mayor John Hoven (@mayorNHL) July 7, 2013

 

After going a perfect 5-for-5 in my predictions on the main card the first time Chris Weidman took on Anderson Silva, tonight’s card brings several intriguing match-ups that could go either way. The final UFC card of 2013 is very tough to call. With that said though, here’s my official predictions…

Prelim fights on Fox Sports One at 5pm PST / 8pm EST:

Siyar Bahadurzada > John Howard (170 pounds)

Dennis Siver > Manvel Gamburyan (145 pounds)

Gleison Tibau > Michael Johnson (155 pounds)

Uriah Hall > Chris Leben (185 pounds)

PPV at 7pm PST / 10 pm PST

Dustin Poirier > Diego Brandao (145 pounds)

Jim Miller > Fabricio Camoes (155 pounds)

Josh Barnett > Travis Browne (Heavyweight)

Ronda Rousey > Miesha Tate (135lbs for women’s bantamweight title)

Chris Weidman > Anderson Silva (185lbs for middleweight title)
