Daniel Barez-Jafel Filho Pick, Prediction and Odds for UFC Fight Night
Daniel Barez: -105 | Jafel Filho: -115
Barez has a 16-5 professional record, featuring seven knockouts and six submissions. He has a well-rounded skill set, evidenced by his 3.47 significant strikes landed per minute and five takedowns on average. Of his losses, he has been submitted twice and lost via decision another three times.
On the other side, Filho has a 14-3 record at the age of 30. he has five wins via knockout and eight via submission, lands 1.46 significant strikes per minute and averages 1.15 takedowns per bout. He only defends takedowns at 55%, but his four takedowns allowed all came against Mokaev. Filho will likely try to get this fight to the ground and work his submissions. It should be noted that Filho nearly finished Mokaev, but he refused to tap after a brutal knee bar.
This fight leaves many questions given the lack of UFC experience on both sides. Filho should have the advantage on the ground and fought well against Mokaev in his UFC debut. At just -115, Filho comes with a favorable price too.
