Card Preview & Predictions
Who has the edge at UFC 334? We break down the main card, the matchups that could decide each fight, and our picks to get their hand raised.
Ciryl Gane (c) vs. Josh Hokit
UFC Heavyweight Championship
Ciryl Gane looked great against Alex Pereira. If that version shows up, he’ll present serious problems for Josh Hokit, who is on the smaller side among today’s heavyweights. Despite the eye-poke controversies surrounding Gane, I still think he’s the best athlete in the division. His striking is crisp, and his movement makes him a difficult target.
Wrestling remains his biggest vulnerability, and Hokit has the tools to exploit it. We also know Josh isn’t afraid to get scrappy, which could help him disrupt Gane’s rhythm. This could be a huge moment for Hokit, and as much as I want him to win, Gane is as legit as they come. I think his striking will make the difference as the fight wears on.
Prediction: Ciryl Gane by Third-Round KO
Kayla Harrison (c) vs. Amanda Nunes
UFC Bantamweight Championship
This is a tough one. I’m less concerned about Amanda Nunes’ inactivity when Kayla Harrison has also been sidelined with a neck injury. Add Harrison’s difficult weight cut, and there are questions on both sides.
Nunes has the kind of punching power Harrison has rarely had to deal with outside of perhaps Larissa Pacheco. Even then, Amanda brings a different level of danger with her striking. I see Harrison’s wrestling as her clearest path to victory, and her confidence makes me wonder how competitive their old training sessions really were.
But training is one thing. Dealing with Nunes throwing at full speed with a championship on the line is another. I think her reach and power will give Harrison problems, and she’ll remind everyone why she’s considered the GOAT.
Prediction: Amanda Nunes by Second-Round KO
Caio Borralho vs. Yousri Belgaroui
Middleweight Bout
Caio Borralho may not look scary with his glasses on, but he’s a beast inside the cage. Now he’s facing “The Boogeyman,” and Yousri Belgaroui lives up to the name. His size and reach could make this a difficult fight for Caio, especially if he spends too much time trading with him.
This is a massive platform for Belgaroui, but I’ve learned my lesson picking against Borralho. I think Caio gets this fight to the ground and eventually finds the finish.
Prediction: Caio Borralho by Third-Round Submission
Uroš Medić vs. Kevin Holland
Welterweight Bout
Uroš Medić is on a roll, and I don’t see Kevin Holland stopping him. If we get the version of Holland we’ve been seeing lately, he’s in trouble. Medić has the momentum and the power to make this a short night.
Prediction: Uroš Medić by Second-Round KO
Bilal Hasan vs. Luis Gurule
Flyweight Bout
The future flyweight superstar is back, and this feels like another opportunity for Bilal Hasan to show just how smooth and flashy he can be. He’s building momentum, making the most of his opportunities, and giving people reasons to remember his name.
Luis Gurule is the next test, but I’m fully on board with Hasan. I think he delivers another highlight here.
Prediction: Bilal Hasan by First-Round KO
