The scheduled flyweight clash between Alden Coria and Stewart Nicoll will be part of the UFC OKC card on Saturday inside the Paycom Center.

Due to his current three-fight losing streak, Nicoll heads into the fight as the heavy betting underdog with +750 UFC odds. On the other hand, Coria, who has won his two bouts under the promotion, will be the considerable betting favorite with -1200 odds.

UFC OKC: Alden Coria vs. Stewart Nicoll: Prediction

My prediction is a decision win for Coria over Nicoll, as he’s the faster and more technical fighter. Nicoll may have the advantage in grappling, but he rarely uses this advantage against opponents because he prefers to stand and bang with them.

Coria’s quickness will give problems to Nicoll, especially at the tail end of their striking exchange. Nicoll has a habit of lowering his guard at the very end of exchanges, and it will be an opportunity for Coria to land several punches.

Nicoll also often throws sloppy punches, which makes him susceptible to counters. This was seen during his previous fight against Alessandro Costa, when he was countered by a check-liver shot that folded him. This could be the same fate for him against Coria, who’s a very dangerous striker, but I believe this fight will go the distance.

Alden Coria’s Recent Fight Results

Coria was a former standout in LFA and Fury Fighting Championship before the UFC signed him last year. He won both of his octagon appearances, defeating Costa and Luis Gurule.

Stewart Nicoll’s Recent Fight Results

Nicoll was an undefeated prospect who won the Beast Championship and XFC belts. In 2024, the UFC signed him to a contract, but he hasn’t won a bout under the Las Vegas-based promotion. He was defeated by Jesus Aguilar, Lucas Rocha, and Costa.
