Round 1
Returning from a major motorcycle accident that kept him out of action for just over two years, Strickland (20-3, 7-3 UFC) makes his return to the promotion against hard-hitting Welshman Marshman (23-9, 3-4 UFC). Drawing the assignment for this catchweight bout – Marshman eclipsed the 186-pound limit by a pound and a half – is referee Keith Peterson, who will tolerate no nonsense in the cage tonight. They touch gloves, and Marshman throws out a leg kick to start things off. Strickland walks the Welshman down, and starts landing a series of one-twos to get Marshman to retreat. Marshman returns fire with a leg kick and an overhand right, but Strickland completely ignores it as he plods forward. Strickland slaps at the lead leg of his opponent, and he reaches in with a left hand and ducks back to avoid the looping shot from the Welshman. Marshman gets jabbed in the face, and Strickland follows it with a crisp one-two. Marshman tries to bomb him with some big shots, and Strickland rolls with then and fires back. Strickland checks a leg kick, and he starts to work a long left jab. Marshman commits to power strikes, but none are landing flush as Strickland’s are straighter and quicker in and out. Strickland sticks him with a right hand, and Marshman nearly gives him one back but it does not have full steam on it. Strickland gets off a right hand, and then a one-two makes Marshman back off to gather his thoughts. Strickland nails him with a leg kick, and Marshman responds with one of his own but he takes a jab at the end of it. Strickland marches forward with long strikes, unconcerned with Marshman’s wide shots. Strickland checks another leg kick, and he makes Marshman reach at him by staying just the end of his punches. A jab to a right hand stings Marshman, and Strickland follows it with a lengthy combination that pins Marshman to the cage. The Welshman defends himself but eats a plethora of shots, and he circles away as he cannot put strikes to get to get Strickland off of him. Marshman paws with a leg kick, and Strickland boots him in the chest. When Strickland puts his leg down, Marshman clocks him with a huge right hook, stunning “Tarzan” with his biggest shot of the round. Strickland gathers his thoughts and walks his man down until the horn ends the round.

Round 2
The two middleweights touch gloves, and Strickland starts off where he left off by putting Marshman on his back foot with long punches. Strickland clicks a left hand off the brow, and Marshman starts to follow the work of his opponent by reaching out with a few long left hands to the head and body. Marshman targets the body again, and he flicks out a jab. Strickland uses a double jab to pop Marshman on the chops, and a right hand comes around to catch Marshman on the jaw. Strickland disrupts Marshman’s winging shots with jabs, and occasionally he will reach with his right after landing the left for a very effective one-two that bloodies up the Welshman. Strickland’s accuracy is sky high as he is working Marshman over with his jab and sporadic kicks, and Marshman makes him pay with a combination by ripping the body with a left hand. Marshman jabs to the body a few times, and Strickland cracks him with a few stiff left hands that make Marshman try to shake it out. The Welshman gets his bearings about him, and when he swings and misses, Strickland nails him with another one-two. Strickland blocks a few jabs to the midsection and tattoos Marshman’s face with his own jabs, and they are starting to damage the nose as Marshman begins to check it. Marshman swings and misses with a leg kick, and Strickland is loose and sticks and moves him. Marshman is active trying to line up a big right hand, but Strickland dances out of the way. The two come together to land a few heavy shots, and Marshman is winding up with a right hand but is just out of range. Two left hands from Marshman find their mark, and Strickland pushes him off with a front kick. He pushes out another to the torso, and a right hand breaks up the leaping flurry from Marshman as the round ends.

Round 3
One final glove touch checks in the last round, and Strickland races forward as he flicks out a few jabs and a right hand that folds the nose of his opponent. Marshman double jabs his way in to the body, and he tries again but Strickland sees it coming and paws it away. Marshman goes after the same combination, and Strickland laughs at him and tells him to stand in the center of the cage and fight. Marshman obliges, and the two start trading wildly in a brawl. Strickland is able to get the better of the exchanges by being quicker to the punch, but a few Marshman shots have marked up Strickland’s face. Marshman swings and misses, and Strickland goads him on by saying “Come on, Jack.” Both men start trading heavy leather, and Strickland is telling Marshman to throw with “full power.” Marshman tries to unload with heavy shots, but Strickland sticks him with a right hand and evades the follow-up. Strickland nails Marshman with some huge punches, and he shouts “Why won’t you fall?” Strickland keeps landing virtually at-will, and Marshman stands right in front of him and slugs right back. Strickland clips him with a right hand, and Marshman’s wobble. Strickland is fired up and telling Marshman to give it everything he has, and he cracks Marshman in the head. Marshman stands strong and Strickland tells him to fall down, but instead Marshman races in with a few punches. The Welshman puts together a chain of punches, and Strickland dodges most of them but a few get in. Strickland tells Marshman that he will give him a chance to win, if Marshman goes hard. They stand in front of each other and start brawling recklessly and wildly, and Strickland spins with a back kick. The two trade and land, all while Strickland urges Marshman to empty his gas tank in one final slugfest. They swing right to the final bell, and then embrace after a hard-fought but tactical battle.

Sean Strickland
Strickland is a much better all-around fighter with superior striking and range management. Marshman is a one-dimensional brawler who can be faded. Strickland should see everything coming and win by decision, though a submission is possible.

JunYong Park
Big Brady is confident in Park due to his significant striking volume advantage and Phillips' terrible 11% takedown defense. He expects Park to take Phillips down and control him on the ground, or out-strike him on the feet. He notes Phillips' only path is a knockout, but Park has never been knocked out.

JunYong Park
The MMA Guru picks JunYong Park because John Phillips has been figured out: opponents can bait his wild overhands and take him down. Park is a great grappler who outgrappled Marc-Andre Barriault, and Phillips is older and coming off a beatdown. He expects Park to grind out a unanimous decision or get a rear-naked choke in the second round.
rear naked choke in the second round
"i think i'm going to go with parque and young just baiting out the shots from john phillips ducking underneath them getting himself to take down and maybe even getting this done by a rear naked choke in the second …"

View on SherdogJohn Phillips vs. Khamzat Chimaev
Round 1
Welsh fighters will try to go two for two tonight as “The Welsh Wrecking Machine” Phillips (22-9, 1 NC; 1-3 UFC) squares off with the unbeaten Chimaev (6-0, 0-0 UFC), for whom the latter was recently described as “Khabib Nurmagomedov 2.0” by manager Ali Abdelaziz. Can Chimaev maintain his 100 percent finish rate, or will the Welshman spoil his party? Like referee Herb Dean, we are about to find out in this preliminary headliner. Chimaev lets fly a head kick, and immediately chains that into shooting for a takedown. The newcomer hits it with ease, and opens up with sledgehammer left hands as Phillips tries to walk up the fence. Phillips sits up but as he does, he gets slashed open with some thudding left hands. Chimaev pulls Phillips’ legs out, and the Welshman rolls over. Chimaev instantly takes his back, and starts pounding him with right hands as he fishes for a choke on the bloodied fighter. Phillips complains that his opponent is grabbing his gloves, and after a brief bit of confusion, Chimaev picks up where he left off with punches to the side of the head as Phillips tries to get up desperately. Phillips continues to absorb these short punches in the face as blood continues to flow, and he rolls over to get out. Chimaev follows him and starts hacking at him with elbows. “The Welsh Wrecking Machine” is getting wrecked as Chimaev keeps raining down punches, and a big mouse has started to form above his right eyebrow. Chimaev keeps punching from a short distance, and Phillips attempts to stand up but sits down as his neck is nearly caught in a guillotine choke. Chimaev knees him in the side a few times, and a few punches soften Phillips up until Chimaev fishes for a rear-naked choke. The Welshman rolls again, but Chimaev is on him like a cheap suit and maintains a steady pace of ground-and-pound. Phillips goes back to his knees, and Chimaev ends the round by continuing to attack. The only question from that brutal round is whether it merited an incredibly rare 10-7 score from the judges.

Round 2
In just over 10 seconds into the second, Chimaev hits a smooth takedown as Phillips is exasperated. Phillips crawls to his knee and gets up against the fence, but the Swedish resident gets right back to pounding on him like the last devastating round. Phillips rolls to his back to try to get to some sort of survival position, and he keeps rolling through to get to his knees.
At that second, Chimaev snatches up the neck in the form of brabo choke, and he latches on the choke and secures it tightly. “Borz” squeezes with all his might, and Phillips falls to his back and taps out to surrender.
What an overwhelming beating, and what a statement to put the still undefeated Chimaev on the map.

Khamzat Chimaev
Big Brady picks Khamzat Chimaev, calling him 'the real deal' with great ground game and power. He notes John Phillips has a 100% finish rate but has lost by submission four times, and Chimaev will take him down and submit him.

Khamzat Chimaev
Daniel Levi picks Khamzat Chimaev, noting his wrestling ability to take Phillips down and avoid Phillips' first-round knockout power. He believes Chimaev is smart enough to not stand and bang, and will win by decision or submission.

Khamzat Chimaev
The Guru picks Khamzat Chimaev despite the short notice and weight class change (welterweight moving to middleweight). He notes Chimaev has fought decent opponents and has KO power, while John Phillips is inconsistent and was embarrassed in his last fight against Jack Marshman. Chimaev is younger, bigger, and rangier, and the Guru expects a first-round KO due to Chimaev's speed and flurries.
first round KO
"I'm gonna go cams action may of I like John Phillips but he is not good and if he wins he can just be a meme of the division but you know cams at cheer Chimayo vis a welterweight coming …"

Play-by-Play
View on SherdogKevin Holland vs. John Phillips
Round 1
The southpaw Phillips presses forward at the bell, kept at range by a few push kicks from his taller opponent. Holland gets backed up to the wall and has to bail out as Phillips fires heavy combinations. Phillips keeps pressing and walks into a body kick from Holland, and it looks like a bad one. Phillips backpedals immediately, doubled over and protecting his body. Somehow, despite taking several additional front kicks and punches, Phillips stays on his feet and in the fight. Halfway through a busy opening round, Phillips is on the advance again. Holland catches him in the Thai clinch and drives a pair of hard knees up the center, but again Phillips swings back and Holland circles away after taking a glancing punch. Holland comes over the top of Phillips’ next pair of hooks with a clean counter left. After landing another body kick, Holland hits Phillips with an accidental kick to the groin. Referee Peter Hickmott calls time, Phillips takes 30 or 40 seconds to recover, and the middleweights get back to action with 90 seconds remaining. Both men stand still in place in the center, waiting for the other to strike. Holland acts first, hitting Phillips with another kick to the body, now one to the lead leg. Phillips blocks a right high kick but eats a straight right hand behind it. Inside the 10-second clapper, Holland drives Phillips to the ground with a flying knee, then tries to pound him out and runs out of time.

Round 2
Holland lands a couple leg kicks before Phillips tags him with a hook and puts him on the mat in the center of the cage. Holland pops back to his feet and gives Phillips a touch of gloves and a nod of the head. Phillips rushes the American against the fence and swarms him with hooks; Holland puts up a high guard and makes a show of rolling as he blocks the punches, then circles away. Phillips keeps pressing and takes a stiff jab, now another hard shot to the body, and suddenly the Welshman looks to be slowing down. Halfway through the fight now, and Phillips continues to come forward, walking into front kicks and one-twos from the rangy Holland. Phillips leaps forward with a series of big right hands, one of which rattles the brain of Holland, who’s forced to circle away in a hurry. Phillips clinches Holland against the fence with 60 seconds remaining. Holland breaks free and looks up to the big screen to check on a newly opened cut over his right eye. Holland finishes the round strong, punishing Phillips with several hard body kicks and a left high kick that goes through Phillips’ glove.

Round 3
Holland hits an easy takedown in the opening seconds, changing levels as Phillips overcommits on a wind-up right hand. Phillips eats several punches before climbing back to his feet. As soon as they stand, Holland lifts and dumps Phillips back to the mat, then begins peppering the Welshman with punches while trying to take the back. Phillips is on his knees, leaning forward, Holland on his back with one hook in. Holland sits up to drill Phillips in the side of the head with an elbow, then pulls Phillips backward, still trying to establish back-mount. Holland still only has one hook in when he tries a rear-naked choke, allowing Phillips to twist out of it and drive forward. Holland takes him straight back to the ground, then steps over to full mount with two minutes left to fight. Phillips bucks and rolls, winding up on top in Holland’s half guard. Holland catches an arm as Phillips drops punches but can’t finish the armbar attempt. With 70 seconds remaining, Holland sits up and ankle-picks Phillips down at the base of the fence. This time, Holland explodes into the back-take and wraps his arm around Phillips’ neck for the RNC before Phillips can defend. Phillips resists for a few seconds, recognizes he’s stuck and taps out.
