The MMA Vivisection – TUF 25 & UFC 213 picks, odds, & analysis

The MMA Vivisection is back after a week off with a double-header mega-sode. We’re breaking down International Fight Week, which means two solid cards of analysis, insight, and odds. The UFC may not have the top drawing stars fans are used to out in force, but with title fights between Yoel Romero and Robert Whittaker, as well as Amanda Nunes vs. Valentina Shevchenko II this week promises to be capped off by some high level MMA action. Throw Overeem vs. Werdum, Diakiese vs. Klose, and Gaethje vs. Johnson in there, and there’s more than enough violence to go around.
