As for odds, I am not exactly sure why bookies are in favor of Robert Whittaker ?!
Not much of home advantage for him, as Last Stylebender lives in New Zeland.
I may also consider Adesanya win by decision with small stakes.
It is simply because he is the champion and he is not in this situation because of fluke wins, check out his fights before he won the championship and you will understand why he is the favorite even by the bookies, Adesanya is a good striker and so does Whittaker and he is really a smart fighter, i am not sure who will win but it will be one hell of a fight. Not much of home advantage for him, as Last Stylebender lives in New Zeland.
I may also consider Adesanya win by decision with small stakes.
Yup seriously... Can't wait to see Adesanya up there for his toughest match ever. I already got some action on him ranging from 2.18 to 2.25ish. Lol.

But Thiago Alves wont fight this time. He is injured[/url] and is replaced by Gilbert Burns.
Btw Burns won his last 3 fight and will be a good replacement.
Last minute replacement as i was not aware of this, it will be difficult for Gilbert Burns to jump into fight mode without much preparation .Btw Burns won his last 3 fight and will be a good replacement.
Wait until they get closer to title contentions and you'll these silent fighters become more and more talkative.
But the personality of Gunner Nelson and Jack Hermansson are laid back individuals and i do not see them trash talking at any point.This looks bad for Nelson. After spending months for an opponent then comes last minute changes, it's back to the drawing board to make adjustments to the game plan.
It will be difficult for Gilbert Burns too as he might have taken the fight because of the money offered and he is also not prepared while Gunner Nelson had a fight camp for a long time.
There's going to be HUGE moves for UF 244. Big price pots, Vegas will go crazy. I reckon this BMF belt can do better numbers than Khabib's last fight. Not the one vs Conor of course, that will remain unbeaten until there's a rematch or until Ferguson fights Khabib, but people are sleeping on this one. They even hired The f*cking Rock to give the belt to the winner. I think he will not also announce it and they will have Bruce but it's possible The Rock is also training to announce the fighters, that would be epic.
I give Nate Diaz a win at this point. I was going to go for a Masvidal SD in a close 5 round fight, but Nate is just TOO BIG. I saw him on the faceoff, the guy is a big 6 foot guy, and we know he is thought as nails and he isn't going to back up for a second. I can see him stopping Masvidal or going for a UD. Of course, you are always scared to bet against Masvidal after that flying knee, but that's part of the thrill.

This looks bad for Nelson. After spending months for an opponent then comes last minute changes, it's back to the drawing board to make adjustments to the game plan.
Looking on Alves record, Burns seems to be much tougher opponent. Both Alves and Burns and BJJ experts, so Nelson should have trained against that kind of opponent and be ready this Saturday.
There are no trash talkers in this fight card

Not heard about here but i will be following her and her fight and may be wage a small bet on her. There are no trash talkers in this fight card but Gunnar Nelson vs Thiago Alves and Jack Hermansson vs Jared Cannonier are good fights. Gunnar Nelson will take Thiago Alves on the ground and majority of the fight will be in the ground and Jared Cannonier is coming down from 205 pounds and he is a striker against a ground specialist.

This is going to be a ufc fight card that I will not be able to watch but I must say there is a shortage of big names here.
My SWEDISH girl 'Elbow Queen' will bring the elbows with her and I like her as the under dog here

For this upcoming UFC fight night, 160 between Jack Hermansson and Jared Cannonier all I have to say is for me is that Hermansson is a more complete fighter than Cannonier well not as potentially Complete as Khabib in my opinion But I would love to see Khabib fight than him, But against Cannonier even though Jared has a punching power and have pressured Silva with a combination of leg kicks and punches but I guess looking at Silva now has a slower pace than him I am seeing this fight will surely favor for Jack Hermansson and added to this he also got a leg reach advantage than Cannonier, So I bet will go with Hermansson.
Any predictions for UFC Fight Night Copenhangen that is starting in just few days?
This two could be interesting for me:
Jack Hermansson vs. Jared Cannonier
Gunnar Nelson vs. Thiago Alves

Nelson vs Alves for me as well. I think both of them are in the crossroads of their career, but I will probably try to bet if I have spare funds to Nelson here.
And talking about the rematch, yes it will happened as reported already and it's going to be in US soil. So let's see how fans are going to react to this because as I have said, many claims the the reaction of the Mexican crowd is disrespectful against Stephens.
One UFC update:
Yair Rodriguez vs Jeremy Stephens is booked again,
and going to be co-main event on October 18th (UFC Boston)

https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/9/25/20884339/rodriguez-vs-stephens-2-booked-for-ufc-boston
Question though is why the fight is sudden, do Stephens has been cleared by the doctor? Usually it takes at least 180 days based on the article I posted.
Anyways, strike while the iron is hot, and as @bbc.reporter have said, a new story board is made courtesy of the two fighters and Dana is banking on it to milk the controversy while there are still animosity between the two, specially with the race card, Lol, classic move by Dana here.
@notblox1. I reckon that Dana is liking how Jeremy Stephens and Yair Rodriguez created their own storyboard that might have made him remake this fight immediately while the drama is there hehehe.
Jeremy Stephens and Yair Rodriguez both claimed they got involved in a scuffle following UFC Mexico City and video has surfaced to prove it.

So in the end, it looks like the drama or how the fight ends in Mexico evolved to make a whole storyboard for the Stephens vs Rodriguez rematch and Dana was quick to make the rematch because it is still hotly debated and talk about. And now that some video had re-surfaces, (haven't seen it), so this drama turns out to be personally (I'm sure media has something to do with it).

Looks like he need time to heal that eye and maybe we can see a rematch, but this time is should be in US.
I am sure we will have a rematch and i am not sure whether it will be scheduled in US, they will be fight night main event and if Stephens is fine by that time they could add in the Nate Diaz fight card.@rosezionjohn - yes we know how tough Stephens is, you can see in his interview like he describe in the Cerrone fight, so we really can't blame him for that, but the attitude of Mexicans is really disgusting.
The reaction of the crowd is because Yair Rodríguez was too dramatic when the fight was called off as if Jeremy Stephens or the doctor made some mistake to end the fight like that and since the reason the crowd was reacting like that. Heard they had an altercation after the fight in the back stage and it is building up a good fight like the way the UFC wanted. Jump to:
