Alvin Hines favored over RJ Harris lean UFC Fight Night: Du Plessis vs Usman · July 12, 2026
strikinggood grapplinggood

Picked with a genuine caveat -- the analyst flags recent uncertainty about a performance-enhancer suspension as a real unknown before landing on him anyway.

A significant unknown heading in, given a period away tied to a suspension the analyst suspects may be linked to performance enhancers, which could affect the cardio he's previously been known for. Good striker with basic but effective combinations, deceptive kicks including a head kick, and good volume that works the body well. Pretty good grappler who reverses position well, has a decent sprawl, good ground strikes, and uses less common positions like the half-back and front headlock effectively.
