UFC Sacramento: Jamall Emmers vs. Lerryan Douglas: Prediction

I predict a TKO/KO finish for Douglas over Emmers because he’s very methodical in his approach and how he beats opponents. Douglas’ main weapon is his leg kick, which doesn’t give any telegraph on his opponents.

Douglas uses these leg kicks to compromise his opponent’s movement and power, but at the same time, he makes them believe that he’ll spam these kicks throughout the fight. This forces them to defend them and mainly worry about them.

Once they defend these kicks, Douglas will proceed to unleash his punching combinations. These punches have power behind them, and once landed clean, he’ll surely stun his opponents and eventually finish them.
