Who has the edge in this week's UFC Fight Night? MMA coaches and betting insiders make their picks.
Tuivasa , ranked No. 7 in ESPN's divisional rankings, has been finished in each of his past three fights . Tybura , unranked by ESPN, also enters the fight after a loss. Tybura lost to current interim heavyweight champion
Tuivasa seems to get frustrated and lose focus when he can't land the big shot. Then, next thing you know, his opponent catches him. When Tuivasa gets overzealous and starts dhucking that right hand, he doesn't rebalance -- putting himself in bad defensive positions. His fundamentals have been an issue, so I would encourage him to be more fundamental.Tybura is more technically sound and attacks with more weapons.
Tybura spends 21% of all fight time on the ground controlling opponents, a position where Tuivasa is effectively helpless, and his below-average takedown defense doesn't help him. But Tybura must succeed early, and that's no guarantee when Tuivasa is fresh and unloading strikes on early advances. Due to opposing dynamics, this is nearly a coin flip. A bet on Tybura is also a bet on the fight going over 1.5 rounds, while Tuivasa will only win by TKO.
Loosa carries a ton of power, but so far in the UFC, all of his fights have gone to a decision. Even if he rocks Battle early, we have seen Battle come back to get the win due to his durability. If Loosa rocks Battle early and can't get the finish, then he is going to be in for a tough fight. Battle will have the reach and the striking advantage from a technical standpoint, and if he chooses to take Loosa down, Battle is a nightmare on the ground.
