UFC Vegas 113: Bautista vs. Oliveira: Prediction
I predict a unanimous decision win for Bautista against Oliveira because he’s the better fighter overall and mixes up his attack very well with his striking and grappling. Bautista also knows when to level change and when to trade strikes with his opponents.
Oliveira is a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt, but he relies on his power punching rather than his solid BJJ background to beat his opponents. He relies on a one-shot knockout punch but leaves himself open, as he likes to put his hands down to load up with his punches.
Additionally, Bautista is a technical fighter who’s very disciplined in his approach. He effectively throws a one-two punch that frustrates opponents and inflicts damage. If he avoids a firefight with Oliveira, a decision win is going to be in his favor.
