IAN HEINISCH VS BRENDAN ALLEN LOWDOWN
Ian Heinisch (14-3) is back after one of his most impressive victories to date. After kicking off his UFC career with two unanimous decisions over Cezar Ferreira and Antonio Carlos Junior he then fell on the wrong side of decisions to Derek Brunson and then Omari Akhmedov. However, he met Gerald Meerschaert in June knocking him out in the first round.
He takes on Brendan Allen (15-3) who is becoming a serious threat in the division. The former Legacy Fighting Alliance middleweight champion is on a seven-fight win streak including three impressive hard-fought UFC wins. He submitted Kevin Holland, knocked out Tom Breese and is coming off a recent unanimous decision over Kyle Daukaus.
IAN HEINISCH VS BRENDAN ALLEN PREDICTION
Considering their talents and the bad blood here, this is an exciting match-up and destined to be a very competitive scrap. They are both extremely well-rounded and evenly matched, but Allen will boast a three-inch height and reach advantage and will also have the edge on the ground with his submission threat.
This fight is likely to end in a decision and will be tough to call. Heinisch is very hard to put away but if Allen is at his best he could pull off a submission.
Prediction: Allen via Decision
