UFC Fight Night 94 Odds – The UFC Fight Night 94 event comes to us live this Saturday night from the State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, Texas. The feature fights are set to air on Fox Sports 1 and the main event sees lightweight action as Michael Johnson returns to face Dustin Poirier in a five-round bout.
Poirier (20-4) has really adapted well to the 155-pound division, winning four fights in a row since his now famous loss at featherweight to Conor McGregor. Three of the four wins have come via first round stoppage, and Poirier is on the verge of a top five ranking in a crowded weight class. In Johnson (16-10) he is facing a sturdy veteran who has been campaigning at lightweight for a long time. Johnson, however, has been off since December of 2015, and he is trying to put an end to a two-fight slide. These are two men heading in opposite directions, unless Johnson can break through and gain a win, however the books are calling Poirier the favorite.
At middleweight, the Derek Brunson versus Uriah Hall bout has the potential to be an exciting tilt. Hall (12-6) spent the entire calendar year of 2015 fighting often, logging five UFC fights and going 3-2. The three wins were all first round KOs, but his last fight was a UD loss to Robert Whittaker last november and he has been off for 10 months since. Brunson had to pull out of his UFC 200 fight due to eye problems, but they are apparently resolved and he is looking to add to his four-fight winning streak that has seen him KO his last three opponents in the first round.
Back in the lightweight division, veteran Evan Dunham (17-6) greets newcomer Rick Glenn (18-3-1). Glenn was one of the few standouts on the World Series of Fighting roster over the last few years, and he is on a three fight winning streak as he makes his UFC debut. Dunham has been a UFC fighter since February of 2009, and he too is on a three fight winning streak. The three fights in a row come on the heels of three losses in a row and a stint where he dropped four of five.
At welterweight, the match between Kenny Robertson and Roan “Jucao” Carneiro is a near toss-up. Robertson is a solid 15-4 overall and he lost his last fight back in July of 2015 to snap a three-fight winning streak. after more than a year off, Robertson is here just trying to get his feet wet again. Caneiro is returning to welter after a run at middleweight that saw him get stopped in his last outing by Derek Brunson.
