Fresh off first-round finishes in their recent bouts, lightweight up and comers
Ramsey Nijem
and
Carlos Diego Ferreira
will collide in UFC 177 action in Sacramento on August 30.
An
Ultimate
Fighter finalist, Nijem has won two straight, most recently stopping
Beneil Dariush
in the first round at Abu Dhabi on April 11, earning himself a Performance of the Night bonus in the process. Brazil’s Ferreira improved to 10-0 as a pro on June 28, submitting
Colton Smith
in 38 seconds in an Octagon debut that also earned him a Performance of the Night award.

Good fight; tough fight actually to predict. Ferreira has solid grappling skills and is not your normal Bjj guy who sometimes can't get you down, he has solid takedown ability. Nijem can be hit and miss but he showed nasty power in his last fight against a very dangerous fighter.

And a rare ability to take a punch that randomly decided to show up in Abu Dhabi lol.
I like Ferreira here with his ability to get this fight where he needs it to be

Damn this is an interesting match up. I thought ramsey was gunna get smashed in every fight hes won so far in the UFC. I should probably stop picking against him. But man, did Ferreira look like a stud in his last fight over Colton Smith. Gunna go with Ferriera by Submission.

CDF has the advantage everywhere IMO. I think he gets a stoppage in the 2nd. Because of Ramsey's impressive stoppage of Beneil I hope I get CDF at -200 or better.

Castillo/Ferguson will be a solid PPV opener.

Agree but they need to add some names to this one, it's still lacking.

I bet they have stuff lined up that just needs some I's dotted and T's crossed before they announce it

This is Sacramento right? Locals will support TJ and TAM (I bet we see a couple more members on the card like maybe Joe B)

Benavidez will probably be there. Doesn't have a fight booked and fought a while ago. Faber isn't going to be on this card. This is a PPV that they moved to Sacramento last minute for TJ, they need to stack it a bit more.

I like Nijem in this fight. He is a lot better than Colton. Nijem could use his wrestling to keep it standing and use his boxing to touch up Ferreira. If he decides to go to the ground with Ferreira that could be bad.
