Marcus McGhee

ANALYSIS
McGhee has been on a roll of late and enters this contest having won each of his last three fights -- the most recent one was via TKO against Gaston Bolanos in January this year. Even though he faces a tough challenge in Martinez, who has gone 6-1 across his last seven fights, there's no question McGhee is on a roll as well and carrying decent momentum. McGhee has a 3-0 record at the UFC level in his career.

ANALYSIS
He's only three fights into his UFC run, so we don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but the company might have found something in McGhee. This was his third straight stoppage victory since arriving, and it was once again another dominating performance -- one that would earn him a $50,000 Performance of the Night bonus. McGhee has no holes in his game. He has power, a solid grappling game and excellent fight IQ. He easily dominated Bolanos, a noted striker, on the feet. Typically having only nine pro fights under your belt at age 33 is a bad thing, but McGhee certainly has less damage to his body than your typical aging fighter, and you know he's getting elite training on a daily basis while working with the guys at the MMA Lab in Arizona.

ANALYSIS
This pair was originally scheduled to throw down in August, but Bolanos was forced to withdraw due to an unspecified issue. McGhee went on to defeat JP Buys as a heavy favorite and improve to 2-0 in the UFC and 8-1 as a professional. Both of those wins ended with Performance of the Night bonuses, so McGhee will look to keep that streak going against an opponent who last fought in April -- a debut victory over Aaron Phillips.

ANALYSIS
McGhee was the largest favorite on the entire card at -350 despite having one UFC appearance to date and all of eight pro fights under his belt. As always, Vegas knows all. McGhee, who appears to have massive power for a bantamweight, crushed Buys with a right hand which sent his opponent stumbling towards the cage and forced referee Jason Herzog to immediately halt the contest. The finish would go on to earn him one of four $50,000 Performance of the Night bonuses awarded on the evening. McGhee is 33 years of age, so his long-term upside is in question despite his quick start to his UFC run. The company might as well push him quickly to get an idea of the potential here.

ANALYSIS
McGhee will face a replacement opponent, JP Buys, after Gaston Bolanos withdrew due to undisclosed reasons. The 33-year-old American fighter took down Journey Newson in his UFC debut, and he will look to stay undefeated against Buys.
