UFC Fight Night 62 Predictions: Main Card Staff Predictions

The UFC returns to Brazil this Saturday for UFC Fight Night 62. A welterweight matchup between submission machine Demian Maia and under-the-radar wrestling specialist Ryan LaFlare headlines the event.


In the co-main event of the evening, fellow welterweights Josh Koscheck and Erick Silva will tussle in a contest that sees both men approach a career crossroads. Silva is still looking to break on through to the division's upper echelon, while Koscheck enters having lost four straight, hoping to stop the bleeding.


Prior to the headliners, there will be an additional 10 fights, including four more main card draws. Which brings us to our purpose here—some main card predictions.
