Noche UFC: Drakkar Klose vs. Tommy Gantt: Prediction
My prediction is a decision win for Gantt over Klose, as he’s the better overall grappler. Even though Klose also has a wrestling background, he prefers a stand-up battle, where he pressures opponents and uses his dirty boxing in the clinch.
Gantt will expect this approach from Klose, which is why I believe he’ll initiate the action and keep Klose from taking the center of the octagon. This way, he can time a level change and shoot for a takedown.
Once on the ground, Gantt will use his athleticism and strength to overpower Klose to secure a favorable position on the mount. This is where Gantt punishes his opponents with ground-and-pound strikes with punches and elbows.
