Im always surprised at how little UFC pays out if only because they will want to portray the business as making a lot of money for the fighters to keep people involved in MMA. Seeing main card fighters tweet about how they have legitimately no money doesn’t exactly attract people to start MMA training.

I am certainly not. I'm not interested in listening to a 4 HOUR LONG podcast about social media and debating with noted UFC nothingness "Ryan Hall" to see if his position on hitler being sorry for genocide is good or bad.

UFC 253 breakdown Looking up fighters' tapology pages so you don't have to  For the Middleweight Championship Israel Adesanya (c) vs Paulo Costa A solid fight between a young champ and an undefeated contender. I feel as if this is something of a “new era” title fight as neither is an old/established commodity for the UFC. That’s refreshing, actually. That said, I’m not really sold on Costa or his wins, and I think that Adesanya is on a different level, and that the style matchup favours the champ. For the vacant Light Heavyweight Championship Dominick Reyes vs Jan Blachowicz Reyes has looked solid lately, and had a good showing in his disputed title shot. Blachowicz has been getting some attention lately as being elite but I’m not sold on that. Sure, he put away Corey Anderson but so did OSP and Jimi Manuwa and Gian Villante. Other than that Blachowicz’s three fights have all been against fighters who moved up from middleweight, and he lost one of those by TKO, and took another to a split decision. Kai Kara-France vs Brandon Royval This is a strange matchup for the main card. Royval is 1-0 in the UFC with a submission win over Tim Elliot. Kai Kara-France is a kiwi striker with a 4-1 UFC record, who I find reasonably fun to watch. It’s not even that high profile of a fight at Flyweight, but it’s not a terrible matchup. Ketlen Vieira vs Sijara Eubanks Eubanks is in as a late replacement off of her dominant win over Julia Avila. Sarge is easy to mock because of her bad record, but I think that reflects her bad fight IQ. If she comes in with a gameplan of “get on top and use your loving awesome jits and punch hard” she might end up with a pretty brutal win here. Meanwhile Vieira is coming off of a KO loss to Irene Aldana, and most of her stoppages are by sub so that favours Eubanks. The x-factor is how inconsistent Eubanks is. Hakeem Dawodu vs Zubaira Tukhugov These guys both have names similar to fighters who fought in the last month. They aren’t those guys. Dawodu is a Canadian kickboxer on a 4-fight streak. Tukhugov is a Chechen sambo guy with a 3-1-1 UFC record. I see nothing worth mentioning on their records aside from Tukhugov was one of the guys suspended for the Khabib-Conor brawl. Prelims Brad Riddell vs Alex da Silva I don’t know either of these guys. Riddell is Ratios and Tendency posted:Riddell's a kiwi. He's a tough, experienced, march-forward kickboxer and his fight vs Mullarkey was a cracker. Diego Sanchez vs Jake Matthews Diego Sanchez is being cornered by Stefan Bonnar this time, so at least he has a coach who knows what fighting is. Jake “The Celtic Kid” Matthews is yet another Aussie with a mixed UFC record. Matthews should probably handle Sanchez, at least in the on-paper matchup of physicality, skill, and mileage, but who knows how Matthews will react to the sheer weirdness of being in the cage with Sanchez. The x factor is how drunk Bonnar is. Shane Young vs Ludovit Klein Young is yet another Kiwi, who lost to Volkanovski way back in 2017 (jesus Volk has been active). There’s nothing else noteworthy on his record. Ludovit Klein has an awesome name and is from Slovakia. He’s making his UFC debut with a 16-2 record with many fights in a promotion called OKTAGON. He seems to be a striker. William Knight vs Aleksa Camur Knight is an 8-1 contender series prospect making his big show debut, and all of his fights have ended in stoppage. Camur is a 6-0 contender series product who has a decision win over Justin Ledet. I don’t see anything interesting on their records, but Light Heavyweight prospects are always welcome. Early Prelims Jeff Hughes vs Juan Espino Want some fatweights? We have fatweights. Hughes came in as a 10-1 contender series product and has now lost to Mo Greene, eye poked Todd Duffee, and then lost a decision to some dude. Juan Espino won TUF 28 and hasn’t fought since, though he completely stomped Mo Greene in the TUF tournament. This looks to me like a tune-up fight for Espino who is coming off of 22 months layoff. Khadis Ibragimov vs Danilo Marques Ibragimov is an M1 champ who is 0-3 in the UFC including a loss to Ed Herman in Moscow. Why is he still in the UFC? Danillo Marques is a Brazillian making his UFC debut with an unremarkable 9-2 record.  I GUESS. Light heavyweights, right? These guys don’t even look like prospects. I can’t even find anything like “both were late replacements.” What is this poo poo doing on my TV?

Is this the first time there have been multiple title fights and the heavier guys were Earlier on the card? I thought in general, the heaviest weight went last that night if there were multiple belts

Normally yeah, but no Jones in a LHW title makes Izzy and Costa the bigger names to build a card around. Only other time I could see it happening now is a Khabib fight, but they wouldn’t need to stack that to get buys imo.

Yeah that’s true but I feel like I remember “bigger” fights than the main being earlier due to the whole weight thing. I personally always found it a little silly 🤷🏻♂️
