UFC Singapore brings fans a card full of well-known names looking to get back in the win column and Cageside Press has their picks ready.

- Tarec Saffiedine vs. Rafael dos Anjos
- Dong Hyun Kim vs. Colby Covington
- Andrei Arlovski vs. Marcin Tybura

Interestingly, just one of the four fights on the UFC Fight Night 111 card in Singapore wound up with one fighter getting a clean sweep from our staff members. All of our writers chose Rafael dos Anjos over former Strikeforce champ Tarec Saffiedine, despite RDA moving up to welterweight for the bout.
In the main event, almost no one was siding with Team Correia, either. Just one fighter chose the Brazilian to win. In the heavyweight co-main event between former heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski and Marcin Tybura, only two writers picked “The Pitbull” to return to form.
Kim vs. Covington was similar, with all but two fighters choosing Dong Hyun Kim to pick up the victory.
Our writers see UFC Singapore as a one-sided card — lets see how it plays out!
