UFC Fight Night: Fremd-Pickett live stream, start time, odds, betting splits

UFC Fight Night is set to get going this weekend from the Apex in Las Vegas, NV on Saturday, August 12 at 7 p.m. ET. There is a six-bout main card highlighted by a welterweight fight between #10 Vicente Luque and #9 Rafael Dos Anjos. Also notable on the main card is a middleweight fight between Josh Fremd and Jamie Pickett.

Fremd (10-4) is fresh off a second-round submission win over Sedriques Dumas in March. He is a very skilled grappler, scoring 75% of his takedowns and he enjoys mixing things up in the octagon. His submission ability combined with a 76” reach and 52% striking accuracy make him a difficult outing for any middleweight.

Pickett (13-9) has struggled of late, losing his last three bouts. Two of those losses have come by submission and one a knockout. The former Dana White Contender Series alum is looking to get back on par and earn a well needed victory.
