The upcoming UFC 200 will feature a lot of great mixed martial arts fighters and is expected to bring the T-Mobile Arena down on Saturday night. All have a shot to walk out as champions and carry the gold crown when the night is done.

Jose Aldo vs. Frankie Edgar 

This fight will be a battle for an interim title for the featherweight division and is considered a tough one to call. Both are fast and eager to win. Aldo is coming from his first loss after a decade defending the WEC and UFC featherweight title nine times.  That loss was courtesy of Conor McGregor.  However, Edgar, who is a former lightweight champion himself and also wants a revenge after losing to Aldo via unanimous decision back in 2013.

This will also be the first fight for Aldo after losing to McGregor, while Edgar has already won five straight games, which makes him more prepared.

Prediction: Edgar wins via unanimous decision

Miesha Tate vs. Amanda Nunes - Nunes has performed well in her last three fights. All scored her a victory. However, her last fight against Valentina Shevchenko showed that she had slowed down significantly in the third round. This might be a problem with Tate, who executed a late fifth-round submission against Holly Holm to bag the gold. Both fights happened during UFC 196.  It seems that the longer a fight goes, the better for Tate.

Prediction: Tate wins via fourth-round submission

Brock Lesnar vs. Mark Hunt – While Lesnar hasn't fought in the Octagon since 2011, it doesn't mean he has lost the touch. He is in a very good shape, all year round, and has an average of 3.87 takedowns per fight. Meanwhile, many also favor Hunt, who isn't called "The Super Samoan" for nothing. He has the power to take down anybody when he wants to. However, his previous fight against Stipe Miocic showed the opposite. Hunts was brought down six times by Miocic.

Prediction: Lesnar wins via second round via TKO, Heavy predicts.

UFC 200 will happen on June 9 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
