UFC on Fox: Alvarez vs. Poirier 2 is an upcoming mixed martial arts event produced by the Ultimate Fighting Championship that will be held on July 28, 2018 at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

UFC on FOX 30 staff picks: Which of three ex-champs do we expect to lose?

The UFC is back in Canada this week with a long-awaited grudge rematch in the main event and three former UFC champions on the main card. UFC on FOX 30 takes place Saturday at Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The card airs on FOX following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.

In the main event, former UFC and Bellator lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez (29-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) meets Dustin Poirier (23-5 MMA, 15-4 UFC) in a rematch. The two first fought at UFC 211 in May 2017, but the fight ended in a no-contest courtesy of illegal knees from Alvarez. After asking for the rematch ever since then, Poirier finally has it and is a slight favorite. He also is favored heavily among our 14 MMAjunkie editors, writers, radio hosts and videographers with only two pickers taking Alvarez.

The co-main event features former longtime featherweight champion Jose Aldo (26-4 MMA, 8-3 UFC) against veteran Jeremy Stephens (28-14 MMA, 15-13 UFC). Stephens is on a modest three-fight winning streak and has solid momentum, but it’s Aldo who is a slight favorite, and who has the slight lead in the picks at 8-6.

Also on the main card, former women’s strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk (14-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) is a heavy favorite against Tecia Torres (10-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC). Jedrzejczyk has lost two straight fights – a title defense against Rose Namajunas, as well as their rematch. This will be her first non-title fight since December 2014, and she’s the card’s third largest favorite at 3-1. She also has the support of 12 of our 14 pickers – only two are taking Torres to pull the upset.

And to open the main card, Olivier Aubin-Mercier (11-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC) meets Alexander Hernandez (9-1 MMA, 1-0 UFC) in a lightweight bout. Aubin-Mercier is another heavy favorite among our pickers at 10-4, even though he’s just a slight favorite (-150) at the betting window.

In the MMAjunkie reader consensus picks, Poirier (64 percent), Stephens (53 percent), Jedrzejczyk (88 percent) and Aubin-Mercier (74 percent) are the choices.
