Predictions: UFC On FOX 22 “VanZant Vs. Waterson”

Before we get to UFC 207 and the return of Ronda Rousey, we’ve got to get through UFC on FOX 22 this Saturday night.

But honestly, the card is really a pretty pleasant surprise for this late in the year.

In the main event, strawweight contenders Paige VanZant and Michelle Waterson will square off, while the co-main pits Sage Northcutt against Mickey Gall.

Add in the likes of Urijah Faber, Cole Miller, Bryan Barberena and Eddie Wineland scattered throughout, and Saturday should be a fun night.
