UFC Vegas 124: Mitch Raposo vs. Marcos Degli: Prediction

I predict a TKO/KO victory for Degli over Raposo because he’s the more powerful striker and mixes his attack pretty well. Raposo is also a well-rounded fighter who can stand and bang with opponents or grapple.

Degli’s leg kicks should be the biggest catalyst for his victory because Raposo holds the edge in speed. These hard leg kicks can slow down Raposo and compromise his movement. Degli can also use this to set up his signature left hook punch on Raposo.

Another path to victory for Degli is using his grappling to bait Raposo in the early rounds so his guard drops. Then, once Raposo expects a takedown, he could set up an uppercut or a front kick to potentially end the fight.
