Kind of weak for a main event, no? Also, this event has been labeled as "Volkov vs. Struve" instead of "Struve vs. Volkov", as it currently stands here in Tap.

Prediction: wrong Struve   wrong Decision  

I'm thinking that Struve will grind his way to another win. Should have a clear advantage on the ground if he gets it there.

Prediction: correct Volkov   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Since Volkov lacks power, it's gives Struve a huge advantage to win. Also, why not make GDR vs Cyborg to headline this card? UFC is so ****** at making title fights in people's home countries.

Prediction: correct Volkov   wrong Decision  

GDR refuses the fight against Cyborg for reasons that could be resumed to "she knows Cyborg will knock her out." According to Cyborg interview with mmafighting, Dana White told her she is fighting on UFC 214. They just don't know right now against who and if they would strip GDR or not"

GDR should retire if she ducks Cyborg, the UFC deserves this ****** situation.

oh ****

That's a good fight. Very interesting. Wish it was sooner. Both have very similar body types. i think Volkov knocks him out but i hope Struve wins.

Close fight, 5 rounds almost guarantees a finish but it's hard to see who has the edge really.

Decent fight. At least it is 2 heavyweights headlining this.

Prediction: correct Volkov   correct KO/TKO   wrong Round 4  

love this matchup. it's like a freakshow fight, but it's totally legitimate. if struve is smart, he finds a way to take this one down and tries to turn it into a ground battle where he probably has the advantage. i can never trust the guy though and volkov should have the standing advantage as he uses his reach better. might be a gas tank battle and i kinda favor struve there, but i can't shake the memory of what happened the last time struve fought someone close to his size (travis browne) so i'll go with the heart pick.
