The UFC this weekend is set to return to Vegas, featuring a lightweight bout between number seven ranked Rafael Dos Anjos and number ten ranked lightweight Rafael Fiziev.
In this article we will be discussing UFC Vegas 58: Rafael Dos Anjos vs Rafael Fiziev Prediction.
Both fighters are in good form as Fiziev is riding a five-fight win streak and Dos Anjos has won his previous two fights.
Prior to this fight, RDA had suffered many injuries which could affect his performance. On the other hand, Fiziev has slightly better momentum going into this fight, which could favour him.
Both fighters have a fighting dog inside them. When they get going, nothing can stop them, so powerpack action is guaranteed at UFC Vegas 58.
We believe Rafael Fiziev has just a few more weapons to finish the fight and RDA has a slight advantage in the ground game, but we assume Fiziev can defend well against all of those RDA’s takedown attacks.
At the end of the day, the striking volume and versatility in attack of Rafael Fiziev will be too much for former lightweight champion Rafael Dos Anjos.
Official Prediction: Rafael Fiziev by Knockout or Unanimous Decision
