UFC Fight Night will be headlined by Tatsuro Taira vs. Hyunsung Park on Saturday night. Taira, the No. 6-ranked fighter in the UFC’s flyweight division, was originally supposed to fight Amir Albazi, but the 31-year-old Iraqi fighter wasn’t medically cleared to compete. So Park took the fight on short notice and the undefeated fighter is coming off of three consecutive stoppage wins in the UFC.
The 12-fight UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park fight card on Saturday will begin with prelims at 6 p.m. ET, with the main card starting at 9 p.m. ET. The fights will be contested at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas and this is UFC Las Vegas 108.

Taira vs. Park preview
Taira is 16-1 in his MMA career but this will be his first fight since suffering the first defeat of his career against Brandon Royval in a five-round split decision last October. Meanwhile, Park is a perfect 10-0 in his career and most recently won via first-round submission against Carlos Hernandez in May after an 18-month layoff.
The late-notice fight is a potentially huge launching pad for Park, who will be facing his first ranked opponent since joining the UFC. Meanwhile, Taira could be on the verge of earning his first title shot with a victory. Both fighters are skilled grapplers and superiority on the mat could very well determine the winner of this bout.
Park is probably the superior striker but Taira has improved incredibly in that department during his career and he’s a dynamic wrestler. A five-round war against Royval also proved that he has the stamina to go deep and he’ll be taking Park into untested waters if he can take it beyond three rounds. You can see Vithlani’s picks and analysis now at SportsLine.
UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park predictions
We’ll reveal one of Vithlani’s UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park selections here: Chris Duncan (+170) to defeat Mateusz Rebecki (-205) in a lightweight matchup on the main card.
“Rebecki is fiery striker, and a physical grappler who likes to push a torrid pace. Rebecki is 4-1 in his UFC career, and has overwhelmed his opponents with his heavy pressure style. However, I don’t think Duncan is a fighter that style will work against. Duncan is a strong wrestler training out of American Top Team gym, and has continued to refine his MMA skills,” Vithlani told SportsLine. See who else to back here. You can also get $150 in bonus bets instantly when you bet $5 at DraftKings.
UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park main fight card, odds
Vithlani has a strong pick for Taira vs. Park and other bouts on the UFC Fight Night: Taira vs. Park card. He’s also backing a fighter who “is a dangerous submission artist” to pull off a massive victory. He’s sharing who it is only at SportsLine.

Mariners vs. Blue Jays ALCS schedule, prediction, odds: Seattle seeks first AL pennant; Toronto hosts Game 1
Getty Images In the wake of the 15-inning marathon that was Game 5 of the ALDS between the Seattle Mariners and the Detroit Tigers, the Mariners now only have one day off before starting the American League Championship Series against the Toronto Blue Jays. It's a fresh matchup. The two teams have only faced each other once in the playoffs and that was the Wild Card Series in 2022, with the Mariners winning two games to none. The Blue Jays haven't been to the ALCS since 2016 and haven't been to the World Series since 1993. The Mariners haven't been to this round since 2001 and have never won the AL pennant. They remain the only team of 30 in MLB to have never played in the World Series. They'll have their chance to advance here, but they have to deal […]

But they all had 100-plus scrimmage yards on Sunday, with Dowdle going north of 200. Did they just have good matchups, or did their performances shoot them up the Week 6 Fantasy football rankings? Both recent performances and current matchups should be taken into account when making Fantasy football start/sit decisions.Dowdle had 206 yards versus the Dolphins, who will host the Chargers on Sunday. L.A. has now lost both Najee Harris and Omarion Hampton to IR, leaving Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal as the next men up in the backfield. Should either, or both, make their way into Week 6 Fantasy football lineups? Also, what does Joe Flacco's arrival in Cincinnati mean […]
