Zane Simon & Connor Ruebusch are here with the MMA Vivisection PRELIMS SHOW, breaking down a set of 5 bouts on this 12-bout UFC Vegas 65: 'Lewis vs Spivac' Fight Night event.

"We’re now one week removed from UFC 281, which means we’ve got a pretty severe downgrade in fight card quality to look forward to. In the main event, Serghei Spivac hopes to insert his name into the stack of rising heavyweight contenders with a victory over Derrick Lewis. The card drops sharply in notoriety from there." - Zane Simon 11.17.22

For those fans who wish to dive deeper into the MAIN CARD, check out that version of the MMA Vivi which already aired at 1PM Central today, Thurs., Nov. 10th., 2022, right here on our SC channel.

The MMA Vivisection is brought to you by ‘The Fine Art of Violence’, a collection of art and essays recapping the year in MMA by Chris Rini, featuring the most talented artists and writers in Mixed Martial Arts. The book is available in both hard copy and digital formats at chrisrini.com.
