Where to see?
Of course, the main event of the year in the world of MMA will attract the attention of hundreds of millions of users around the world. Watching the live stream of UFC 245 will, as always, be available on the promotion's mobile app, as well as on the UFC Fight Pass channel (early prelims, starts around 3:30 Moscow time).
Prelims and main cards are available to viewers on the Wink platform. Beginning at 5:00 and 7:00 Moscow time, respectively.
The main battle of the evening. Kamaru Usman – Colby Covington
In terms of intrigue, the welterweight division took a colossal step forward in 2019. In many ways, this became possible thanks to the candidacy of the current champion. “Nigerian Nightmare” Kamaru Usman took the title away from Tyrone Woodley, and, according to experts, is a contender to own the belt for a huge amount of time – the fighter's anthropometry and standing skills are impressive.
At UFC 245, the Nigerian will face a tough test. Disgraced thrashtoker Colby Covington will return to the octagon in order to fight with an implacable rival. After the official announcement of the fight, Colby began to promote the fight in every possible way, insulting his opponent. Usman tries not to respond to the American's attacks, saying that he will respond to everything in the octagon. The fight will turn out to be incredibly exciting and can become one of the main events of the year.
Odds 1xBet:
1.49 – 49 – 2.21

Main card
As mentioned earlier, the Maynard of this event is the most attractive in the calendar year. In addition to the three titles, the matchmakers decided to bring the Russian and the American together in this card, and Jose Aldo, as part of the fourth fight of the day, will try to reincarnate his career. The second event of the evening will be a featherweight fight, where Alexander Volkanovski will try to defend his champion claims.

The battle between the American and the Australian can turn out to be much more interesting than the main battle of the day, since there will be much less struggle in this fight. And this is not due to the lack of grappling skills among the fighters – on the contrary, athletes devote a lot of time in the training camp to wrestling. But both Holloway and Volkanovski are used to holding their fights in a standing position.
For the first time in a long time, Max will have such a textured rival who is practically not inferior to him in anthropometry, which is why Alexander is quoted by the bookmakers much better than the previous opponents of the champion. The striking battle of two high-class fighters and the champion format of the fight are worth seeing the featherweight title for.
Odds 1xBet:
1.55 – 47 – 2.47

Amanda Nunez – Germaine de Randami

In women's MMA, things are not as rosy as in men's. Here, the dominance of Valentina Shevchenko and Amanda Nunez is observed, and only the straw division is relatively unpredictable. While the fans of the promotion are waiting for the battle between Nunez and Shevchenko, the audience at the T-Mobile Arena will have to watch the confrontation in the bantamweight division, where, as expected, Germaine de Randami became Nunez's rival.
The Dutch kickboxer in an extreme fight inflicted the first defeat in the career of young Aspen Ladd, and now she is trying to take one of the belts from the Brazilian Lioness. Nunez, on the other hand, is approaching the fight in the framework of the main favorite and is not going to give up his title. Both athletes love to hack to death in a stance, so a bright and early end of the fight is expected in this fight.
Odds 1xBet:
1.34 – 51 – 3.52

Jose Aldo – Marlon Moraes

Another attempt by Jose Aldo to return to the big sport could be the beginning of the end for the former UFC champion. Aldo lost the opportunity to fight for the featherweight title in the near future, as in the last fight he lost to the current contender for the belt in the person of Alexander Volkanovsky. Now the Brazilian has moved to the bantamweight division and for the first time in his career he will try his hand at bantams.
The matchmakers of the organization decided not to stand on ceremony and put against Jose the most brutal drummer from the first line of the rating. Marlon Moraes lost this year to Henry Sejudo, which is why his opponent tried on the second championship belt. Now Marlon wants revenge, but first he needs to get past the Brazilian veteran.
Odds 1xBet:
2.55 – 49 – 1.57

Peter Jan – Yuraya Faber

The main battle of the evening for Russian MMA fans will be a fight with the participation of Peter Yan. The disgraced Russian, who, in search of an upcoming opponent, insulted almost every possible opponent in the division, came to a good fight with an experienced and eminent opponent. Undefeated in the UFC, Ian will face off against UFC Hall of Famer Juraja Faber.
The creator of the legendary Team Alpha Male retired three years ago, but returned in 2019, confidently knocking out Ricky Simon. Peter's level is much higher, however, the American should not be written off from the accounts. A former contender for the belt is able to surprise the public, especially when he is motivated by the idea that, as a result of the confrontation, he may be in the TOP-5 of the rating.
Odds 1xBet:
1.22 – 41 – 4.84

Preliminary card
The events of the event are noticeably different from the main card. There are much fewer significant events here, but there will be something to see in the preliminary map. In addition to several interesting fights between the fair sex, the matchmakers decided to hold a welterweight fight, where Jeff Neal will fight Mike Perry.
Jeff Neal – Mike Perry
Flamboyant welterweight swashbuckler Mike Perry returns to the cage. Recently, the career of a puncher is going through hard times – Perry defeated Paul Felder and Alex Oliveira, but turned out to be weaker than Donald Cerrone and Vicente Luke. The American gradually develops the fight and in a new guise goes to a duel against Jeff Neal.
Unbeaten in the planet's best promotion, welterweight avenue smashes everyone who gets in his way into the UFC. Having entered the organization after an excellent performance at the promoter series of Dana White, the fighter ahead of schedule beat three of his four rivals and now occupies the 14th place in the division's ranking.
Odds 1xBet:
1.42 – 50 – 2.97
[stextbox id = 'info'] Mike Perry's career restart will happen at UFC 245 and what are the chances of the prospect to stop an experienced fighter read in a special forecast [/ stextbox]
Jan Heinisch – Omari Akhmedov
Former LFA champion Jan Heinisch lost for the first time in the UFC in his last fight – Derek Brunson was stronger than the middle division prospect by unanimous decision. The upcoming bout with the participation of an athlete will also take place against an experienced fighter. The honor of performing at UFC 245 fell to our Omari Akhmedov. The fighter specifically missed the Russian event in order to take part in one of the best tournaments of the year. “Wolverine” approaches the fight with a cute series of five fights in a row without defeats, which makes him the shadow favorite of this fight.
Odds 1xBet:
1.79 – 49 – 2.22
[stextbox id = 'info'] We keep our fists for our athlete and read the forecast for his fight from IronBets [/ stextbox]

Dreams will come true on December 15th.
