Monday Nov 10, 2025

🔥 UFC 322 might be the most stacked card of the year, and we’re breaking down every fight that matters! We kick things off with the main event: Jack Della Maddalena vs Islam Makhachev. We break down the keys to victory for both, how Jack’s cage control stacks up against Islam’s chain wrestling, and what this fight means for Islam’s legacy if he becomes a two-division champ. 👊🏻 Next up, the co-main event: Valentina Shevchenko vs Zhang Weili. Zhang is moving up in weight to challenge one of the most decorated champions in UFC history, and we break down how her speed, power, and chaos could collide with Valentina’s precision, patience, and elite experience inside the Octagon. 💥 Then we move into Sean Brady vs Michael Morales. A pivotal matchup that pits a rising, undefeated prospect against one of the most complete grapplers in the division. We discuss where the fight could be won or lost, on the feet or the mat, and how each fighter can impose their style.⚡ After that, we dive into Leon Edwards vs Carlos Prates. A clash of styles between a former champion known for his technical striking and one of the most explosive counter-strikers in the sport. We also look at whether Leon’s underrated wrestling and takedowns could be a key factor here against a dangerous power puncher like Prates.🤼 To close out the main card, we break down Benoit Saint-Denis vs Beneil Dariush. Two of the most skilled and dangerous grapplers in the lightweight division. We examine their strengths, transitions, and where the momentum could swing late in the fight.
