Toshiomi Kazama-Garrett Armfield Pick and Prediction
Toshiomi Kazama-Garrett Armfield Odds
Toshiomi Kazama: +135 | Garrett Armfield: -160
Kazama has a 10-3 professional record, including three knockouts and five submissions. However, he has already displayed concerns on the feet, suffering knockout losses in two of his last three fights. He lands 1.87 significant strikes per minute while absorbing 2.12 behind 50% striking defense. On the mat, he lands 1.93 takedowns per minute and defends them at 66%. Coming from a judo and Brazilian jiu-jitsu background, Kazama’s ground game could come into play more in future fights.
Armfield has an 8-3 professional record with five knockouts and a pair of submissions. However, he has been submitted in two of his three losses. Armfield comes from a college wrestling background and has solid Brazilian jiu-jitsu chops as well. His first UFC fight ended early, but he landed 21 strikes while failing to complete either of his two takedown attempts. He is basically still an unknown, but Armfield appears to have decent boxing to pair with his solid ground game. However, it is difficult to evaluate his UFC debut due to the weight class and short notice of the fight.
This fight brings plenty of questions, with both fighters relatively green in their careers. However, Armfield could have advantages on the feet and mat. At only -160, his short-notice fight against Onama could be depressing his price. There are more questions on the Kazama side, so playing Armfield at this price makes sense.
