Tomorrow, we watch the UFC 291 live stream online to see who really is UFC’s BMF. If you don’t know what that means, well, have you seen Pulp Fiction recently? This match, which will decide who the “baddest” man in UFC is, doesn’t lead to any matchmaking, nor does it have any noted value. It’s all about reputation.

And it’s fitting that the UFC 291 main event is for the BMF title, since it’s a rematch of Dustin Poirier and Justin Gaethje’s 2018 Fight of the Year. In that previous outing, Poirier in the fourth round, via TKO.
The retired Jorge Masvidal, the original BMF champ, will be in the house to strap up the winner.
The card will also show the future of the UFC Light Heavyweight championship contention, with Jan Blachowicz (29-9-1) taking on Alex Pereira (7-2-0). Most recently, Blachowicz took Magomed Ankalaev to a draw, which caused some to sour/cool on his chances.
DraftKings has Poirier (-140) favored for the main event, but not by a whole lot. Justin Gathje (+110) is an even slimmer underdog. The semi main event’s odds put Blachowicz (-145) as a slightly stronger favorite over Pereira (+115).
