UFC OTTAWA ANNOUNCED WITH SEVERAL BOUTS INCLUDING DEREK BRUNSON VS. ELIAS THEODOROU

This week, UFC Fight Night 150 was officially announced and the occasion will occur May 4 at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. In addition to declaring the card, a range of bouts are revealed, and here they are below along with my initial thoughts on them.
Derek Brunson vs. Elias Theodorou, UFC Fight Night 150
The most important battle declared for this particular card thus much is a middleweight bout between top-15 fighters Derek Brunson and Elias Theodorou. Brunson (18-7) is 9-5 from the UFC and is coming from back-to-back KO losses to Israel Adesanya and Ronaldo »Jacare » Souza. Theodorou (16-2) is 8-2 in the UFC and has won his last three fights such as a determination win over Eryk Anders in his final outing. Brunson has the wrestling and power but Theodorou gets the chin and cardio. Difficult one to call but I would have to favor Theodorou at this stage.
Arjan Bhullar vs. Juan Adams, UFC Fight Night 150
A fun heavyweight bout sees Arjan Bhullar take on Juan Adams. Bhullar (8-1) is 2-1 at the UFC and chose over Marcelo Golm his final fight. Adams (5-0) has won five of his pro fights by TKO including a knockout over Chris de la Rocha in his UFC debut. Although Bhullar has solid wrestling, I believe Adams is a top-level prospect and would make him a big favorite here.
Sarah Moras vs. Leah Letson, UFC Fight Night 150
Women’s bantamweight Sarah Moras will take on Leah Letson. Moras (5-4) is 2-3 from the UFC and has dropped her last two fights. Letson (5-1) is on a five-fight win series including a success in her UFC debut. Moras is fade material and I would heavily favor Letson to get the win here.
Brad Katona vs. Merab Dvalishvili, UFC Fight Night 150
Bantamweight prospect Brad Katona will get a step up when he chooses on Merab Dvalishvili. Katona (8-0) is 2-0 in the UFC and only dominated Matthew Lopez in his final fight after winning TUF. Dvalishvili (8-4) is currently 1-2 in the UFC and is coming off of a decision win over Terrion Ware in his final struggle. Katona is an excellent prospect and Dvalishvili is a great test for him at this stage of his career. It’s a tough one to call but given the reality Katona is still undefeated, not to mention Canadian, I believe you need to favor him here.
Mitch Gagnon vs. Brian Kelleher, UFC Fight Night 150
Bantamweights in desperate need of wins will fulfill as Mitch Gagnon takes on Brian Kelleher. Gagnon (12-4) is 4-3 in the UFC and is coming off of consecutive losses. Kelleher (19-10) is 3-3 at the UFC and has also lost his last two fights. Both men are fade cloth but awarded Gagnon’s extended layoff you’d have to slightly favor Kelleher in this one.
Marc-Andre Barriault vs. Andrew Sanchez, UFC Fight Night 150
Former TKO middleweight champion Marc-Andre Barriault will take on Andrew Sanchez in his UFC debut. Barriault (11-1) is coming from eight wins in a row in TKO and is one of Canada’s greatest MMA prospects. Sanchez (10-4) is 3-2 at the UFC and conquered Markus Perez by choice in his last fight. Sanchez is a solid fighter but I think Barriault will be very good and I would certainly prefer him to get the win in the capital of Canada.
Aiemann Zahabi vs. Vince Morales, UFC Fight Night 150
And lastly, bantamweights Aiemann Zahabi and Vince Morales will struggle. Zahabi (7-1) is 1-1 at the UFC and lost to Ricardo Ramos through KO in his last struggle. Morales (8-3) lost his UFC debut to Yadong Song. This one could go either but I would prefer Zahabi just because of the fact he will be fighting so near home.
