Despite UFC 311 barely being in the rear-view, it’s pay-per-view time again in the UFC. UFC 312 goes down this Saturday in Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney, Australia, with two title fights on top of the card. For my MMA Main Card Pick of the Week: UFC 312, I’m making a play on the title fight headlining the event.

MMA Main Card Pick of the Week: UFC 312
UFC 312: Du Plessis vs Strickland 2
Main Card Start Time: 10:00 PM EST (PPV)
When it comes to rematches in MMA, I almost exclusively pick the winner of the first fight to win once again in the rematch. That’s just how these things tend to play out – styles make fights, and if a fighter has another fighter’s number, that generally doesn’t change in rematches.
So I’m going with current UFC Middleweight Champion Dricus Du Plessis to best the man he took the belt off, Sean Strickland, in the main event on Saturday. Strickland actually outstruck DDP in their first battle, but the South African took Strickland down six times, and his strikes always have more power behind them than Strickland’s do. I wouldn’t be surprised if Du Plessis gets him out of there within the distance this time.
