Angela Hill will look to prove she’s a top contender at strawweight when she battles Michelle Waterson in the headliner of UFC Vegas 10. Waterson is on a two-fight losing streak, but many thought she won her last split decision against Carla Esparza. Hill is also coming off a controversial loss against Claudia Gadelha which stopped a three-fight win streak. Hill was picked by six of nine writers.
The co-main event is between a pair of very good up-and-comers in Khama Worthy and Ottman Azaitar. Worthy is 2-0 in the Octagon with a pair of stoppages, including a submission against Luis Pena last time out Azaitar hasn’t fought since a blistering knockout in his promotional debut over a year ago. Worthy was picked by six of nine writers.
Roxanne Modafferi and Andrea Lee cross paths for the first time since 2014. Lee’s lost a pair of tough split decisions most recently that halted a seven-fight win streak (three in the UFC). Modafferi has alternated losses and wins since rejoining the UFC in 2017 with a 3-4 record. She’s coming off a loss against Lauren Murphy, just like Lee. All but one writer picked Lee.
Ed Herman finally gets to fight during the pandemic against Mike Rodriguez. Herman has had four fights canceled since the beginning of last month, and has simply had a streak of rotten luck. He’s coming off a pair of wins. Rodriguez looked brilliant last time out, knocking out ONE Championship veteran Marcin Prachnio in the first round just three weeks ago. Rodriguez was unanimously picked.
Opening up the UFC Vegas 10 main card is Billy Quarantillo and Kyle Nelson. Quarantillo is on a seven-fight win streak and has a stoppage in one of his two fights with the promotion thus far. Nelson is 1-2 and is coming off a first round knockout against Polo Reyes. All but two writers picked Quarantillo.
