Predictions
The main event between Poirier and Gaethje is a toss-up. Both fighters are incredibly skilled and have knockout power. However, Poirier has more experience in big fights and has been more active lately. For that reason, I'm giving him a slight edge.
In the co-main event, Blachowicz is a slight favorite over Rakic. Blachowicz is a former UFC light heavyweight champion and has more experience than Rakic. However, Rakic is younger and has a lot of potential. This could be a close fight, but I'm giving Blachowicz the edge.
Overall, I expect UFC 291 to be a great event with some exciting fights. Be sure to tune in on Saturday, July 29th.
