The Game: UFC Rio

The UFC is back in Brazil this Saturday at Farmasi Arena in Rio de Janeiro, headlined by a lightweight matchup between Charles Oliveira and Mateusz Gamrot. It’s a big one for both guys — Oliveira returns home looking to get back in the title mix, and Gamrot is chasing his biggest win yet.

Fights to Watch

  • Charles Oliveira vs. Mateusz Gamrot — Lightweight (5 rds)
    Oliveira’s dangerous submissions and striking against Gamrot’s chain wrestling and pace. Could go anywhere.

  • Gabriel Bonfim vs. Randy Brown — Welterweight
    Bonfim brings speed and finishing ability; Brown has experience and reach. Solid test for both.

  • Vitor Petrino vs. Dominick Reyes — Light Heavyweight
    Petrino’s power vs. Reyes’ experience. Brazil crowd will be loud for this one.

  • Vicente Luque vs. Joel Álvarez — Welterweight
    Luque’s pressure and durability against Álvarez’s size and slick ground game.

  • Bia Mesquita vs. Irina Alekseeva — Women’s Bantamweight
    Grappler vs. striker matchup that should showcase Mesquita’s jiu-jitsu abilities.

MMA Fantasy insight

  • Use fighter history. Tap a fighter’s photo to check out their past results. You’ll see how they win, how they lose, and whether they fade or finish late. It’s the easiest way to spot trends before you make a pick.
  • Hit the research button. It gives you a quick look at each fighter’s strengths, weaknesses, and recent form.
  • Boost strategy. Use one on a fight with steady output (Luque–Álvarez or Bonfim–Brown) and one on a more unpredictable matchup (Petrino–Reyes).
  • Be specific. If you like Oliveira, think sub in round 2–3. If you lean Gamrot, a decision or late ground finish makes more sense.
  • Pick one underdog you actually believe in. Add a method and round to that pick — that’s how you separate yourself.
