UFC Fight Night: Ulberg vs. Reyes Main Card Predictions
Carlos Ulberg vs. Dominick Reyes
It comes as no surprise to see Ulberg as the –240. The Kiwi has been rising the ranks ever since he appeared on Dana White’s Contender Series, where he looked like one of the more impressive light heavyweights.
He’s good enough to fight for a title in 2026, especially if he beats Reyes, who has also been fighting well. Reyes is a good measuring stick for Ulberg, and easily his toughest fight so far. However, Ulberg is an imposing fighter, and he comes from a gym that knows how to train champions.
We’re happy to include him in our UFC picks this week at –240, and those odds could firm on fight night. If you want more value, Ulberg by decision is worth backing.
Prediction: Carlos Ulberg (-240)

Jack Jenkins vs. Ramon Taveras
Filling in short notice isn’t easy, but Jack Jenkins should relish the opportunity of fighting in front of his home crowd in Australia.
The firecracker faces a tough opponent in Ramon Taveras, and although Jenkins doesn’t have much experience in the UFC, we can’t see the occasion being too big for him. He knows a win on Saturday night could change his career, and he’s up for it.
His KO win over Burns was a good effort, and although he lost via submission in his most recent fight, he has every chance to turn that around. Look for Taveras to give him a run for his money, but Jenkins should get his hand raised.
Prediction: Jack Jenkins (-280)
—
Jimmy Crute vs. Ivan Erslan
We expected more money to come for Jimmy Crute, who is the –185 favorite. We would have been happy to back him at around –240, and the Australian fighter is one of the more exciting MMA specialists on the card.
The 29-year-old has the reach advantage over Ivan Erslan, who was beaten by Navajo Stirling earlier this year. We weren’t impressed with that performance, and he could struggle to close the gap against a hungry Crute.
Crute is a +265 chance to win by KO/TKO, and that’s where our money is heading.
Prediction: Jimmy Crute by KO/TKO (+265)
—
Jake Matthews vs. Neil Magny
We’re continuing our trend of backing Australian and New Zealand fighters. Jake Matthews is on the charge, and he’s keen to show his career has well and truly reignited.
His recent wins over Chidi Njokuani and Francisco Prado were top shelf, and he’s one of the hungrier fighters on the card. He knows a big fight is just around the corner in the welterweight division, so this is an important fight.
We don’t like betting against Neil Magny, who is one of our favorites to bet on. However, momentum is with Matthews, who should excite the home crowd.
Prediction: Jake Matthew by Decision (+125)
—
Tom Nolan vs. Charlie Campbell
We must pick one upset on the main card, so we’re including Charlie Campbell in our UFC picks.
Campbell is 9-2, and although he’s coming up against 9-1 Tom Nolan, we believe Campbell is good enough to get the job done.
Both fighters are good grapplers, and if Campbell gets in an early choke, it could be all over. Bettors get +126 for the underdog, so include him in your UFC picks this week.
Prediction: Charlie Campbell (+126)
—
Justin Tafa vs. Louie Sutherland
We thought Justin Tafa would be a shorter favorite than –115, but there is good respect for Louie Sutherland.
Despite money coming for the underdog, at his best, Tafa is a better fighter. His recent form hasn’t been amazing, but he has fought tough opponents. We believe he’ll get back to his best on Saturday night in Australia.
It’s not our most confident bet, but Tafa is worth including.
Prediction: Justin Tafa (-115)
