Preview

The Bantamweight division see’s undefeated Jack Shore take on the Ultimate Fighter 29 alum Liudvik Sholinian. As the biggest favorite on the card, Shore puts his 0 on the line once again. Thus far in the UFC, Shore has won three fights, two via submission. Meanwhile, Sholinian comes into this fight on short notice. The TUF 29 competitor faltered in the semi-finals to eventual winner Ricky Turcois, but was given a chance here to prove his worth. Before joining the reality show, Sholinian had won four consecutive fights.

Prediction

Understandably, Liudvik Sholinian is stepping up on short notice as a means to the opportunity to fight in the UFC. He’s a worthy addition, showing his metal in two excellent fights in the Ultimate Fighter 29. However, this particular fight is stylistically awful for him. Jack Shore is simply better everywhere.

As for a prediction, obviously I have Shore winning. The Welshman has shown excellent wrestling thus far in the UFC, landing thirteen takedowns in three fights. While Shore’s last fight was close, he persevered and showed real grit. Something that I don’t see him needing in this fight. In fact, I even believe that Shore can win this fight easily on the feet. His boxing is exponentially better than Sholinian, who has shown at times to have porous striking defense. In the end, Shore wins this fight anyway he wants to. If I were to guess, I’d say via submission in the later rounds.

PICK: Jack Shore  (-470)
