UFC FN: Oliveira vs Gamrot (Predictions)

UFC Fight Night is landing in the magnificent, samba-soaked city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil with a main event that’s less a fight and more an absolute madhouse of grappling chaos! The main card begins at 7:00 PM ET (4:00 PM PT), headlined by Charles “Do Bronx” Oliveira vs. Mateusz “Gamer” Gamrot. 

UFC FN: Oliveira vs Gamrot (Predictions)

Oliveira, the human highlight reel and former Lightweight Champion, returns to his Brazilian faithful seeking redemption after tough losses to Ilia Topuria and Arman Tsarukyan. Across the cage stands Poland’s wrestling boogeyman, Mateusz Gamrot — a man who treats the ground like his personal office. Can Oliveira conjure another submission masterpiece, or will “Gamer” grind this into a five-round chess match on the mat? Either way, expect fireworks, drama, and maybe a little cuddle-fueled chaos by Round 3.

The co-main brings former Flyweight king Deiveson Figueiredo continuing his Bantamweight mission against Montel Jackson, while Vicente Luque squares up with Joel Álvarez in a welterweight war that promises at least one broken nose. The undercard? A parade of Brazilian brawlers and ambitious visitors ready to steal the show. Think less “quiet night of fights” and more “carnival with arm triangles.” Tune in — you know you want to!
