6 Main Card Predictions For UFC Fight Night - MacDonald vs. Saffiedine

2. Rafael Assuncao vs. Bryan Caraway

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-oObQd7Tc-E Weight Class: Bantamweight In the co-main event of the night, Bryan Caraway (19€“6) takes on Rafael Assuncao (22€“4) in a bantamweight bout that may determine who gets the next title shot... after Dominick Cruz. And if the winner is Assuncao. Rafael Assuncao actually has a win over current UFC bantamweight champion T.J. Dillashaw, and he no doubt wants a crack at the champ again to prove that win was no fluke. However, with the successful return of former champ Cruz, who has never lost in the UFC and hasn't lost since his WEC days (to Urijah Faber), Assuncao may have to wait a bit. Caraway is a long shot for a title bout appearance, and is ranked tenth in the division currently, but is really no match for Assuncao, who takes this via TKO in the first two rounds.
