International fight week is arriving in Las Vegas with UFC 329 delivering one of the biggest headliners of the year. Holloway vs McGregor 2 features a rematch years in the making between the promotion’s biggest draw and one of its most popular fighters ever. The co-main event showcases contenders in the lightweight division.
Rounding out the cards are familiar names looking to make another statement. Fans should expect another night of big finishes and highlight reel performances. Here’s how it will all play out:
King Green (35-17-1) Versus Terrance “T.Wrecks” McKinney (18-8), 3 Rounds At Lightweight
There’s a reason the UFC puts a lot of King’s fights to kick off a pay-per-view. He is a talented fighter with a boastful personality that shows through his fighting style. He can always be counted on to make an entertaining fight with other strikers.
Green faces off against McKinney, an explosive athlete known for finishing numerous opponents in under a minute. His slick counter boxing will have to be on point as “T.Wrecks” will come out guns blazing with power and wrestling skills.
Green will rely on his experience and unorthodox style to survive the early onslaught, and secure a stoppage victory as McKinney’s pace slows down chasing the big shot. Prediction: King By Second-Round TKO
Brandon “Raw Dawg” Royval (17-9) Versus Lone’er Kavanaugh (10-1), 3 Rounds At Flyweight
Royval is known for having a well-rounded skillset backed by cardio and durability. He will look to attack with high volume and make it an ugly fight to force a mistake.
Kavanaugh is the more technical fighter who excels at controlling distance with sharp striking. He will be tested constantly by Royval’s aggression, so a major key will be staying composed in the chaotic exchanges.
This fight can go either way and has fight of the night potential. Expect Kavanaugh to pull out a split decision with the more impactful strikes landed with his accuracy and timing. Prediction: Kavanaugh By Split-Decision
