MMA Brawl Preview: Dolidze vs Hernandez Bout Forecast
Get ready for an action-packed night of MMA as UFC Vegas 109 is set to take place on August 9, 2025, at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. Here are the predictions for the main fights of the event:
Roman Dolidze vs. Anthony Hernandez
The main event is highly anticipated and expected to be Fight of the Night. The prediction favors Hernandez with moneyline odds around -300, suggesting he is the favorite to win [1][5]. Dolidze, a powerful brawler with eight wins by knockout [4], will face off against Hernandez, known for his cardio, high pace, and chain wrestling [4].
Steve Erceg vs. Ode' Osbourne
The co-headliner of the UFC event features a bantamweight fight between Steve Erceg and Ode Osbourne. Erceg, who has lost his last three fights against the current champion, the most recent title challenger, and a former two-time champion at flyweight [2], will try to bounce back against Osbourne. Osbourne stopped a three-fight losing skid with a TKO win over promotional newcomer Luis Gurule [3].
Iasmin Lucindo vs. Angela Hill
Angela Hill, a veteran with 24 Octagon appearances and currently ranked 13th in the strawweight division [5], faces off against Iasmin Lucindo, ranked 8th in the strawweight division at 23 years old [3]. Lucindo, who has a significant edge in speed, strength, and athleticism compared to Hill [3], is favored to win, though the prediction suggests this fight may go the distance [1][5].
Christian Rodriguez vs. Andre Fili
Christian Rodriguez, predicted to win by decision against Andre Fili [1][3], will look to bounce back from a loss to Melquizael Costa, as will Fili. Both fighters lost to Costa in their last fights.
Miles Johns vs. Jean Matsumoto
Jean Matsumoto is picked to win, with additional prop bets favoring him to finish in round 2 or 3 [2][3]. Miles Johns, who is unbeaten in his last four bantamweight bouts, will be looking to continue his winning streak.
Eryk Anders vs. Christian Leroy Duncan
The prediction favors Eryk Anders for this bout [3]. However, it's worth noting that Anders has lost the explosiveness that served him well earlier in his career [1]. Duncan, who is 12 years younger than Anders, will look to capitalize on this advantage.
Additional prelim predictions include Julius Walker, Elijah Smith, Joselyne Edwards, Uroš Medić, and Gabriella Fernandes as winners in their respective fights [1][3].
