Alexandr Romanov vs Blagoy Ivanov 

The UFC Vegas 76 card starts off with an exciting heavyweight clash between two hard-hitting southpaws. Moldovan Alexander Romanov will take on Bulgarian Blagoy Ivanov in what promises to be a fun fight. Romanov has a slight upper hand in the physical attributes.

Our prediction: Ivana Petrovic beats Luana Carolina by submission.

Guram Kutateladze vs Elves Brener

Lightweights Guram Gutateladze and Elves Brener will compete in this weekend’s prelims. Kutateladze comes into the contest on the back of a loss while Brener will look to continue his streak. Both are almost identical in their physical attributes as well as their stats. Therefore, it could be an entertaining contest.

Our prediction: Guram Kutateladze beats Elves Brener by decision.

Yana Santos vs Karol Rosa

Women’s featherweights Yana Santos and Karol Rosa will meet in the fourth fight of the night. Santos comes into the fight as the fourth-ranked featherweight, while Rosa is ninth in the world.

Our prediction: Yana Santos beats Karol Rosa by a decision.

Joanderson Brito vs Westin Wilson

The penultimate fight on the UFC Vegas 76 prelims is a featherweight bout between Joanderson Brito and UFC debutant Westin Wilson. Wilson has a clear upper hand in terms of the physical attributes. And since it’s his debut in the UFC, we cannot compare the numbers.

Our prediction: Joanderson Brito beats Westin Wilson by TKO.

Kevin Lee vs Rinat Fakhretdinov

The last fight before the main card will have popular UFC fighter Kevin Lee and he will take on Russian Rinat Fakhretdinov. The Russian is the taller fighter. However, Lee has a longer reach. Moreover, Lee is a better striker but Fakhretdinov is a much better grappler.
