UFC FIGHT NIGHT 122 PREDICTIONS 11/25: Grocke’s updated odds and predictions for every fight

BY MICHAEL GROCKE, MMATORCH EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

The UFC continues its International Tour with a stop at the Mercedez-Benz Arena in Shanghai, China for UFC Fight Night 122. The main event takes place in the middleweight division where Michael Bisping steps in for Anderson Silva on three weeks’ notice to take on Kelvin Gastelum.

Bisping steps back into the cage just three weeks after losing his UFC middleweight title to Georges-Pierre at UFC 217. Kelvin Gastelum will come into the fight looking to get back in the column after getting submitted by Chris Weidman at UFC on FOX 25.

The co-main event features China’s own Li Jingliang. He takes on Zak Ottow in a battle of welterweights. Jingliang comes into the fight riding a three fight win streak with his most recent win coming against Frank Camacho at UFC Fight Night 111. After dropping a split decision to Sergio Moraes at UFC Fight Night 100, Ottow returned at UFC Fight Night 110 where he won a split decision against Kiichi Kunimoto.

The main card also includes Wang Guan vs. Alex Caceres and Muslim Salikhov vs. Alex Garcia.

The early prelims will air on Fight Pass starting at 2:45 AM CT. Keep it on UFC Fight Pass for the main card starting at 6 AM CT.
