Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection MAIN CARD SHOW, breaking down a set of 5 bouts on this 12-bout UFC Vegas 62: 'Grasso vs Araujo' Fight Night event.
"The UFC is back with another solid, if not necessarily spectacular, Fight Night offering this week at the Apex Facility. In the main event, Alexa Grasso and Viviane Araujo look to strengthen their flyweight title hopes in what should be a scrappy 5 round battle. The co-main features the bantamweight debut of Cub Swanson. And then fans get a flyweight thriller between Brandon Royval and Askar Askarov." - Zane Simon 10.13.22
For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the PRELIMS CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which will air at 2PM Central today, Thurs., Oct. 13th., 2022, right here on our SC channel.
