UFC Belgrade: Milos Janičić vs. Noah Gugnon: Prediction
With his more calculated and technical approach, I predict a TKO/KO win for Gugnon over Janičić. Both are vicious finishers with a 100% finish rate, but Gugnon is a more refined striker and grappler than Janičić.
Janičić probes with his stiff left hook, but at times, he throws it very sloppily, and his head is too low. This makes him very vulnerable to counters, especially with a check hook or a kick. With Gugnon’s calibre, I think he’ll be able to make a read from this.
Gugnon also fights with a very calm demeanor, which serves him very well in chaotic exchanges and lets him see everything his opponents are throwing. His speed also allows him to go in and out against his opposition.
