UFC Paris: Michael Aljarouj vs. Fabia Sintes: Prediction
My prediction is a decision win for Sintes over Aljarouj, as he’s the more aggressive and vicious grappler. Even if Aljarouj is the more powerful striker, Sintes’ grappling can neutralize it when he takes him down to the mat.
Aljarouj thrives in close-range striking battles, but the threat of Sintes’ takedowns and overall grappling can remove the threat of his one-punch knockout power. Sintes can also lure him to a striking match before timing a level change.
Once on the ground, Sintes can start operating his submission techniques and even his ground-and-pound strikes to inflict significant damage against Aljarouj. But the toughness and youth of Aljarouj will help him survive all three rounds without getting finished.
