CARD UPDATES FOR UFC OTTAWA INCLUDING SARAH MORAS VS. MACY CHIASSON
The Octagon heads north of the border for UFC Fight Night 150, taking place May 4 at Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.
There have been several updates to the card, and the newest bouts are listed below.
Sarah Moras vs. Macy Chiasson, UFC Fight Night 150
Women’s bantamweights Sarah Moras and Macy Chiasson are place to get a featured bout at UFC Fight Night 150. Moras (5-4) is 2-3 from the UFC and is coming off of last-minute conclusion reduction to Talita Bernardo and Lucie Pudilova. The former TUF contestant has not won a fight since a submission win over Ashlee Evans-Smith in late 2017. Chiasson (4-0) won The Ultimate Fighter using a stoppage win over Pannie Kianzad and proceeded to build up her hype train with a brutal knockout over Gina Mazany her last time out. The UFC is obviously very high on Chiasson and she’s making a quick return to the Octagon having just fought at UFC 235 last month. There is no doubt that the UFC is serving up Moras to get completed by Chiasson, who is one of the greatest female prospects in the game right now. Although Moras has pulled off the upset before, this resembles a terrible matchup because of her paper, and Chiasson ought to be a huge favorite heading into this struggle.
Walt Harris vs. Sergey Spivak, UFC Fight Night 150
After Aleksei Oleinik was hauled to combat Alistair Overeem at UFC Fight Night 149, now Walt Harris takes on UFC newcomer Sergey Spivak at UFC Fight Night 150. Harris (11-7, 1 NC) is 4-6, 1 NC at the UFC and is coming from a No Contest against Andrei Arlovski at UFC 232 after testing positive for a prohibited substance. Harris continues to be a huge disappointment in the UFC and it’s amazing he continues to have so many opportunities despite his bad record and his latest drug test failure. Spivak (9-0) has finished all of his pro fights including stoppage wins over noted journeyman Travis Fulton and Tony Lopez on the regional arena. While Harris may possess more UFC experience, this may be a good place to fade him and have a shot on the unbeaten Spivak, that seems like a really good prospect.
Mitch Gagnon vs. Cole Smith, UFC Fight Night 150
Also place for UFC Fight Night 150 is a bantamweight bout between Mitch Gagnon and Cole Smith, who’s filling in on short notice for the injured Brian Kelleher. Gagnon (12-4) is 4-3 in the UFC but is riding a two-fight losing skid and has not won a fight as a 2014 entry win over Roman Salazar. It is wonderful how Gagnon’s career has taken such a nosedive, because at one time that he seemed like he might be a future title competitor in the bantamweight division, but of course these days are long behind him now. Smith (6-0) has won six of his pro fights so far about the Canadian regional circuit with five of them coming from stoppage. Gagnon will probably be the favorite here, however, he is prime fade material and Smith may be a cool dog pick for bettors that are feeling lucky.
