by UFC Fight Night 279 will take place on June 20, 2026, at the Meta Apex in Enterprise, Nevada. It is fresh off one of the greatest nights in MMA history with UFC 250 Freedom but has a solid enough card not to be a giant letdown. It will be headlined by Manel Kape vs Kyoji Horiguchi in a fight that could go either way. In fact, out of the 12 fights on the card, 6 of them are 50/50 pick ems in my book. The six that I feel one of the fighters has a serious edge, are the six I have made an attempt to predict below.
Enjoy!
