Abdul Rakhman Yakhyaev favored over Julius Walker clear UFC Fight Night: Fiziev vs Torres · June 21, 2026
Picked clearly -- the analyst says this fighter wins pretty clearly, framing it as the opponent having arrived in the UFC too early rather than being a bad fighter.
A good striker with plenty of power, good combinations built around a signature one-two, a good kick arsenal, and durability that has shrugged off shots taken clean. Solid grappler with good takedowns and a distinctive body-lock approach -- rather than fighting to hold a top position, he sticks to the body lock and repeatedly mat-returns the opponent, wearing them out while leaning on a control tool he's especially good with. Good back-take and a good submission arsenal that he's willing to attack.
Abdul Rakhman Yakhyaev favored over Brendson Ribeiro clear UFC Fight Night: Moicano vs Duncan · March 29, 2026 · 1 read since
Picked clearly -- the analyst says skill for skill he's the better fighter, barring getting caught by a wild shot.
Strong striker with pop in both hands and legs, builds combinations around a favored cross-lead-hook pairing, kicks well, and is selective about his shots. Shown durability, absorbing shots and continuing to press forward. Wrestling is dependable too -- lands takedowns, latches onto the body lock, and grinds opponents down with repeated mat returns; that process frequently ends with him on an opponent's back, where he hunts finishes aggressively and has earned praise for a real killer instinct once a finish is within reach.
